Pablo,
The following section in the Txtfmt help gives a detailed explanation...
:help txtfmt-cterm-ignore-issue
...but the basic idea is this: for color terminals, when the background
color is not known to Vim, Vim must rely upon the special "Ignore"
highlight group to conceal the tokens. Note that the Ignore group was
actually created in Vim6 precisely to allow special characters in help
files to be hidden:
--From version6.txt--
"Ignore" highlight group: Text highlighted with this is made blank. It
is used to hide special characters in the help text.
---
For various reasons, however, some colorscheme authors have chosen to
make the "Ignore" group quite visible. (Note that this is never an issue
in the GUI where the background color is always known to Vim.) The
Txtfmt help presents at least 3 workarounds for a cterm...
:help txtfmt-cterm-ignore-workaround
> Also if you change your current colorscheme in gvim the "format chatacters"
> appears.
> Is there any way to ensure that "format" characters will stay hidden always?
After changing your colorscheme, you should run...
:Refresh
...to get Txtfmt back in synch. This command can also be used when you
have changed Txtfmt options and wish to have them take effect
immediately (i.e., without restarting Vim or reloading the buffer).
Let me know if any of this is unclear...
Thanks,
Brett Stahlman
