Question

In my current gvim, the cursor color is fixed. But I need to change the color automatically.

Is it possible to automatically invert the cursor color or current line color in gvim?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Yes it is.

:hi Cursor gui=reverse guibg=NONE guifg=NONE
:hi CursorLine gui=reverse

If you use a specific colorscheme, find the corresponding line and change it as above.

If you don't, append one of the lines above (without the :) to your ~/.vimrc.

I wrote this comprehensive gist in the meantime.
