Bug#680772: vim: default completion menu highlight colors unreadable (PmenuSel)

[Mirosław Zalewski]

Source: vim
Version: 2:7.3.547-3
Severity: normal

Steps to reproduce:
1. Run 'vim -u NONE -U NONE -N' command
2. In interactive mode, type /usr/
3. Press Ctrl+O (capital o, not zero) Ctrl+F to start vim path
completing mode. As there are few paths, vim will ask you to choose one
from list.
4. Highlighted entry will be black on black bacground, and therefore
ureadable

':hi PmenuSel' command will show:
ctermfg=0 ctermbg=0 guibg=DarkGrey

Clearly ctermfg should be different than ctermbg.

As a work around, user can put something like:
hi PmenuSel ctermfg=1
in vimrc file.

Best regards
Mirosław Zalewski
