Hi,
When using Vim I find it helpful to have the cursor change color
depending on mode. Mostly I'm running Vim in Screen in a Linux
framebuffer console, but sometimes in an Xterm. I'd like to get
this working in tmux running in a framebuffer console.
Here's what I have in my vimrc now:
" text-cursor color by mode in xterm, linux console and
" screen.linux console: normal mode = golden, insert mode = green,
" return to green when leaving vim
if &term =~ "xterm"
:silent !echo -ne "\033]12;GoldenRod\007"
set t_SI+=^[]12;green^G
set t_EI+=^[]12;GoldenRod^G
autocmd VimLeave * :!echo -ne "\033]12;green\007"
endif
if &term == "linux" && !has("gui_running")
set t_ve+=^[[?17;183;95c " yellow
au InsertEnter * set t_ve+=^[[?17;207;111c " green
au InsertLeave * set t_ve+=^[[?17;183;95c " yellow
autocmd VimLeave * set t_ve+=^[[?17;207;111c " green
endif
if &term == "screen.linux"
set t_ve+=^[[34l
au InsertEnter * set t_ve+=^[[34h^[[?25h " cnorm
au InsertLeave * set t_ve+=^[[34l " cvvis
autocmd VimLeave * set t_ve+=^[[34h^[[?25h
endif
The above works for a tmux session running in an xterm if I place this
in my tmux.conf file:
set -g default-terminal "xterm"
But I'm not finding a way to change cursor color while running tmux in
a framebuffer console.
Reading through the TERMINFO EXTENSIONS section of the tmux man page I
see Cc & Cr ... "If set, a sequence such as this may be used to change
the cursor colour from inside tmux: printf '\033]12;red\033\\' "
That printf command issued in a tmux session running in an xterm
will indeed turn the cursor red...but I can't seem to find the right
sequence to do the same in tmux running in a framebuffer console.
So I'm trying to figure out if there's something I should add to my
terminfo, or if there's an escape sequence that will do the job here.
Thanks for any help,
John
