How to send stderr or std::cerr output in RED colour in VIM

vectrum · 06-30-2017, 12:48 AM

I am using vim in lubuntu 16x with vim 7.4.
I want all my c/c++ error output should be displayed in red colour as eclipse does in it's console.
Could you please tell me how to do it?

I haven't got any colourscheme installed. It is default.

I do not really understand, what kind of error is it? compile time problems or runtime error messages?

Oops! My question was too short.
Well, I mean run-time error message in red colour, say, when a file opening code fails to open a file, it sends perror() output and stderr output in red.
Thanks for helping me to be more methodical.

probably this helps: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/...editing-in-vim
but probably you need to check the plugins of vim (if you could find something suitable)
