Re: vim over ssh: no visual block?

Hi Tim,

Some how I do not have any coloring nor visual block when I connect to my gentoo server with vim 7.2. I do not understand this.  Is there a setting to get this to work over ssh? 

 does it work if you're local to the server (and thus just an ssh  issue)?  Do visual commands work but just not appear (and thus a  colorscheme issue)?  Or do the visual-mode commands complain,  which likely suggests a minimal build of Vim (often called  "vim-tiny" or "vim-minimal")?  For the last one, check the output  of ":version" to see if it was built with "+visual". 

Bingo! :version shows -visuals ...

equery uses vim

... reveiles to me that vim was build with minimal setup so the following command should fix my problem in gentoo:

USE="-minimal" emerge vim

thx,
Bastiaan
