Hello,
Consider a .vimrc containing only the following line:
syntax on
Consider the following "test.f" fortran file:
______________________________________________________________________
c Version 1.0
*deck main
c Following comments when not preceded by a blank line
      character nvarbeta*8,nvarnhug*8,nvarpfus*8,nvarflux*8
      parameter (nbtnap=3D51,nbrnnap=3D51)
      external f0tfnpadd,fntaudiv,fnigana,f0gdadureeflux,
     & f0fhetauhesenflux,f0fhetauhesedureenflux,f0fhetauhesedureetflux,
     & f0tigpfus,f0f1igpfus,f0gdhigpfus,f0fhetauhesengdh
      common/coalphabetatilde/alphantilde,alphattilde,betattilde,nbit,
     & info
      common/coonetwo/one,two

1/ Launch the "XWin server" shortcut to get an xterm terminal
Type:
vim test.f

test.f opens with the following colors:
"*", "=3D", "/" are in a readable dark brown
Continuation "&" is in yellow

2/ Open a Mintty terminal with black foreground and white background
Type
vim test.f

test.f opens with the following colors:
"*", "=3D", "/" are in a difficultly readable light brown
Continuation "&" is in yellowish gray

It is possible to have xterm colors in Mintty?

Best regards

Jean Johner
