Setting the Vim background colors

by

As vim’s own help on set background says, “Setting this option does not change the background color, it tells Vim what the background color looks like. For changing the background color, see |:hi-normal|.”

For example

:highlight Normal ctermfg=grey ctermbg=darkblue

will write in white on blue on your color terminal.
