netrw selection color masks text color

Open tjaartvdwalt opened this issue 4 years ago • 3 comments

What happened

Run netrw-explore :Explore

The font color for certain files, is the same as the highlight color for the current file. If you navigate to one of these files, the file name becomes unreadable.

What I expected to happen

Font color, and highlight color to be different colors

What are the syntax groups being applied to those files?

In my netrc, pngs are the same color as the other files.

Is the ownership adjusted on those or something?

:syntax, gives me this output: netrwPix xxx match /\c\(\S\+ \)*\S*\.\%(bmp\|fits\=\|gif\|je\=pg\|pcx\|ppc\|pgm\|png\|ppm\|psd\|rgb\|tif\|xbm\|xcf\)\>/ contains=n etrwTreeBar,@NoSpell

But I noticed that netrwPix is supposed to be pink, not grey, as shown above.

If I type

:syntax off
:syntax on

it seems to fix things

@tjaartvdwalt Were you able to figure this out?

I did see that g:netrw_special_syntax produces a more colorful netrw directory tree, but I was not able to reproduce the issue.

That said, I don't use current line highlighting, which I assume is a part of the reason why you're having the experience you are with current line issues in netrw.
