madsovenielsen · 04-02-2010, 08:18 AM

Hey.

I am trying to install a vim colour theme asmanian_blood.vim

Heres what i do:

Code:

# cp /home/user/Desktop/asmanian_blood.vim /usr/share/vim/vim72/colors/asmanian_blood.vim

In vim i type:

Code:

: colorscheme asmanian_blood

I am using tab completion so i know that the file is in the right directory but its not working. the colors dont change. but the build in themes work fine.

I cant provide better info because i dont know what to look for right now. there's no errors anywhere.

Are you sure the colorscheme file is setup correctly? Have you tried running vim in debug mode? (-D if memory serves me)
