In case you're using gvim (a GUI "enclosing" for vim) you can
do the following: Load some text or source code, :syntax on,
then in the menu: Edit -> Color Scheme, and pin the resulting
menu next to the editor window; click the different schemes
to check if one of the predefined 17 schemes looks usable to
you; when done, unpin the menu. This approach is just for
testing and "looking around" in the first place, not for
actual permanent use. :-)

There are both gvim and /usr/ports/audio/espeak in ports, and
Gtk is also in there. What would cause this software to refuse
working on FreeBSD?
