colors changed after vim6->vim7 upgrade

Hey guys,

I've used vim 6.4 for the longest time now, and decided to upgrade to vim 7.0, when I upgraded one of the colors in my syntax highlighting changed. In c-code, the following now come up as bright yellow: while, if, sizeof, continue, else ... and so on.

They used to be a dark orange. How can I get them to go back to dark orange?

My vimrc has this:

Code:

hi Comment  guifg=LightGreen ctermfg=LightGreen
hi Identifier ctermfg=DarkRed guifg=#BDD094 
hi PreProc  ctermfg=DarkBlue ctermfg=LightBlue
hi type   ctermfg=LightBlue

Thanks!
George

You need to find your syntax.txt file. http://vim.dindinx.net/orig/html/syntax.txt.php This was a useful document

Forgot to add you may try this also.

Code:

find / -name"c.vim"

that should hold your configuration for syntax highlighting in c.

thanks, i understand now

one more question though... term=<something> stuff doesn't work at all, for instance:

Code:

hi PreProc  term=bold ctermfg=DarkBlue ctermfg=DarkBlue
hi Type term=bold ctermfg=DarkBlue
hi Constant term=underline ctermfg=darkred

my types and pre processing do not become bold... likewise my constants are not underlined. Any ideas here?

thanks for the help

those may have to be declared somewhere else.
