Vim in Lilyterm

Open haldbusfumblecore opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

Hello! Really like Lilyterm. I have started to theme my Vim and run into problems. If I understand it correctly the default for Lily is 256-colors when emulating Xterm with the same support, though it doesn't seem to lay out properly at all. Also there are some problems loading plugins. How to I troubleshoot this? Have camped Google both yesterday and today looking for answers.

Running FreeBSD 11 with latest Lilyterm. I provide with a picture comparing it to Xterm (left) and Lily (right): vim_on_xterm_vs_lily

Thank you for you help.

Best wishes, haldbusfumblecore

Try setting TERM=xterm-256color in your .bashrc file or in your .profile file

That almost looks like a font issue. What font are you using in LilyTerm?

Hello again. I have done some settings and I have tried going with TERM=xterm-256color. The result is having Lilyterm to fail to emulate at all == only being black.

Running SpaceVim in terminals I know have truecolor support (forementioned xterm and sakura) ends up in correct colour display.

Can display colours in Lilyterm when turning truecolor off, setting enable_guicolors = false #defaults to true in ~/.SpaceVim.d/init.toml

The problem is that my Lilyterm doesn't have truecolor support, but will have if compiled with vte 0.36 through this fix: https://github.com/Tetralet/LilyTerm/commit/72536e7ba448ad9ef1126ce45fbde3a3407a271b

I'll compile it manually because the version from FreeBSD ports seems to not offer this by default. The issue should be solved by then.
