How to print VIM current color scheme?

Question

My color file is quite complicated. I think it detects my term and generates color values on the fly.

Is there any way I can print out the generated colors?

Answer 1

This command will open a new window containing all highlight group names, displayed in their own colour:

:so $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/hitest.vim

or

:runtime syntax/hitest.vim

Then this command will turn it into an equivalent HTML file (note capital Tee Oh)

:TOhtml

Save the file and print it out in the usual way from your favourite browser.

Thanks! This is even better than last answer ;) – Luna

BTW: An easier command to use is :runtime syntax/hitest.vim – Carey

Answer 2

• Type :color to view current color-scheme.
• Type :hi to list all color groups.
• Type :hi Statement to view color definations for Statement. (change Statement to what you want)

Truism

To know the value of Statement, see Revealing Syntax Groups section in this vimcasts.org/episodes/creating-colorschemes-for-vim. – Fini

Answer 3

I have Vim 8 you use :colo, :color or :colorscheme
