How to get the list of all installed color schemes in Vim?
You can see the list of color schemes under /usr/share/vim/vimNN/colors
(with NN
being the version, e.g. vim74
for vim 7.4).
This is explained here.
On the linux servers I use via ssh, TAB prints ^I
and CTRLd prints ^D
.
If you are willing to install a plugin, I recommend https://github.com/vim-scripts/CycleColor.
to cycle through all installed colorschemes. Nice way to easily choose a colorscheme.
Just for convenient reference as I see that there are a lot of people searching for this topic and are too laz... sorry, busy, to check for themselves (including me). Here is a list of the default set of colour schemes for Vim 7.4:
blue.vim
darkblue.vim,
delek.vim
desert.vim
elflord.vim
evening.vim
industry.vim
koehler.vim
morning.vim
murphy.vim
pablo.vim
peachpuff.vim
ron.vim
shine.vim
slate.vim
torte.vim
zellner.vim
Type
:colorscheme
then Space followed by TAB.
or as Peter said,
:colorscheme
then Space followed by CTRLd
The short version of the command is :colo
so you can use it in the two previous commands, instead of using the "long form".
