Hi, Hopefully this won't go over with the big thud my last one did. Can/How do tell vim to use color (syntax) when I'm ssh'd to the machine (that is I'm NOT running an xterm). I tried: syntax on I figure it should be possible, when I "ls" in the shell I get colors. Also how do I get a list of the font sizes available on my machine? So that I can set my font of my xterm, like: xterm -fn xxxx Thanks Jay
