Fantastic VIM color schemes

I am a born again vim user - back from emacs bloat land and much chastised I would like to think. I found a really nice post about using vim colors (both for the terminal and gvim) - and it made my day. My favorite is candycode - but why should *you* agree.

Here is the page : New Color Scheme for VIM

And another - ColorSchemeMenuMaker script

How to install: Just copy the colors/ and plugin/ directory under $HOME/.vim/

If you have problems with the plugin, get rid of it (on older versions of vim) - simply copy the colors/ directory under $HOME/.vim/ and you should be able to see and use them in the gvim menu - Edit/Color Scheme

Have fun !
