= "\Ptmux \\12 green\x7\\\" " set replace mode to an orange underscore let &t_SR. = "\Ptmux \\12 cyan\x7\\\" " set normal mode to a green block let & t_EI. " tmux will only forward escape sequences to the terminal if surrounded by a DCS sequence if exists ( '$TMUX' ) " set insert mode to a cyan vertical line let & t_SI. You need special escape sequence to make it work for tmux. Let &guicursor = substitute(&guicursor, 'n-v-c:', '&blinkon0-', '') The following command inserts the " blinkon0-" using a substitute (in the replacement, & represents the original text, that is, 'n-v-c:'): :set guicursor=n-v-c:blinkon0-block-Cursor/lCursor.Īlternatively, you can use the :let command with the &guicursor variable to set the 'guicursor' option. :set guicursor=n-v-c:block-Cursor/lCursor.Īfter the first colon, add " blinkon0-" so it reads: indicates text omitted from this example): Then press the Tab key (see :help 'wildchar') to have the current value of 'guicursor' displayed in the command line. You can also enter a command to directly set guicursor to disable blinking for the n-v-c modes.
#GNOME TERMINAL CHANGE CURSOR COLOR HOW TO#
The following commands illustrate how to disable blinking for all modes (the " a" specifies all modes, and the 0 value for blinkon disables blinking): The 'guicursor' option can be used to set the cursor properties when working in a GUI (gvim). The first two lines change the cursor to ibeam/block as it enters/leaves insert mode, the last 2 lines ensure the terminal cursor is independent of vim cursor setting.
If Vim is running in a Gnome-terminal, the cursor shape can be changed as follows:Īu InsertEnter * silent execute "!gconftool-2 -type string -set /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/cursor_shape ibeam"Īu InsertLeave * silent execute "!gconftool-2 -type string -set /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/cursor_shape block"Īu VimLeave * silent execute "!gconftool-2 -type string -set /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/cursor_shape block"Īu VimEnter * silent execute "!gconftool-2 -type string -set /apps/gnome-terminal/profiles/Default/cursor_shape block"ĭon't do this! This is using a global setting for a local problem - it changes the cursor shape in all open gnome-terminal windows, not just the one running vim. It worked if 'two' backslash - But with "double-quote". Note: when using VIm with xterm on Cygwin use "xterm\|rxvt" (one backslash). " Recent versions of xterm (282 or above) also support " use \003]12 gray\007 for gnome-terminal and rxvt up to version 9.21Īnd changing the cursor shape (rxvt only accepts these escape sequences after version 9.21).
Add the following to ~/.vimrc:Īutocmd VimLeave * silent !echo -ne "\033]112\007" Recent versions of gnome-terminal support the sequence to change color, but not the one to restore the color to the default. Not all terminals support this, but xterm, rxvt and Terminator do(must use nightly version for Terminator, as stable does not support cursor shape escape codes). It is possible to change the cursor color and style in the terminal if it understands the following escape sequences. When using ver100 vim doesn't take the guifg parameter.
Line 4 also sets the cursor shape to a 100% sized vertical bar for insert mode (the default is ver25, a 25% vertical bar. Line 5 disables blinking ( blinkon value 0) for n-v-c modes, and line 6 increases the default blink rate for insert mode. Line 1 defines the color highlighting used for n-v-c modes (set in line 3), and line 2 defines a different color for insert mode (set in line 4). Highlight iCursor guifg=white guibg=steelblue Here is an example for gvim showing how to customize the cursor properties (see :help 'guicursor'): Using gvim with the defaults, the cursor shape is a block when in n-v-c modes (normal mode, or visual selection mode, or command mode while entering a colon command), and the shape changes to a vertical bar when in i (insert) mode. To help avoid that problem, you can specify that the cursor color and blink rate change when entering insert mode. You may start typing, thinking you are in insert mode, but find that the characters are interpreted as commands because you are actually in normal mode.
