I wanted to start using folding without having to get used to
seeing the (default) markers, a.k.a {{{ and }}}. So, here are
2 autocmd's that will make them fade to black....bg=black fg=black
au BufRead,BufNewfile * syn match fmrkr '"*{{{\|"*}}}' |
\ syn cluster vimCommentGroup contains=fmrkr |
\ hi fmrkr term=NONE guibg=black guifg=black
\ ctermbg=black ctermfg=black
au BufRead,BufNewfile * syn match fmrkr '"*{{{\|"*}}}'
\ containedin=vimLineComment contained |
\ hi fmrkr term=NONE guibg=black guifg=black
\ ctermbg=black ctermfg=black
They both accomplish the same thing, but with different methods, so
simply pick one and see those annoying (at least to me) markers fade away.
I just tried it out with vim files, but you can easily modify it for
any other filetypes.
Thanks to Colin's lead with ':help c-syntax' for the 1st au.
Thanks to Benji's lead with ':help containedin' for the 2nd au.
Understanding most of the syntax.txt document file would also be helpful.
To figure out what highlighting group the Marker is in, I would suggest
using Chip's vimtip#99.
Happy Vimming!
