Re: color scheme for HTML

What about using markdown for note taking. It sounds like you are juggling between note taking and previewing the formatting of text. Markdown would help alot with the juggling part. Are you running vim from a terminal?

I would like to get the information in native format (HTML or other in case of another language) in Vim for editing and the same time formated to be able to read it like normal text document in Vim. Something like interactive notebook.
