List,

I finally took the time to find out how to change the color vi uses
for BASH comments to change them from the dark blue to something I
can actually read on the black vi background. It is a simple
inclusion in your .vimrc file. I know a lot of you already know this,
but I'll post it for the rest of us.

Perhaps more succinct is to do this:

:set background=dark

or the ~/.vimrc counterpart:

set background=dark



Hmm.. I'll have to try that, but at first glance, I don't see how that will
provide more contrast than I originally wanted to change away from with the
"darkblue FG on black BG". I'll give it a shot. Who said things have to be
intuitive ;-)
