It's a vim command so you can do it on the fly, or put it in a config file. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
on the fly: |
| 24 |
in vim, type '<esc>:set bg=dark' |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
permanent setting in a config file: |
| 27 |
add the line |
| 28 |
set bg=dark |
| 29 |
to the file .vimrc in the home directory of the user using vi |
