Vim black magic

#vim #jokes

I am watching More Instantly Better Vim by Damian Conway and he has a nice piece of code to put into vimrc of yours and your friends:

highlight ColorColumn ctermbg=16 ctermfg=green
exec 'set colorcolumn=' . join(range(1,80,4), ',')
Enter fullscreen mode Exit fullscreen mode

Makes your python code look all cool like so:
Alt Text
Grab while it's hot!
