Not only my eyes were in pain, as I even couldn 't read some text when it got the same fg and bg color. But that only happens in gnome terminal. The default setup was good for gvim and console terminal. So, with some more reading (the great fm, thanks you Rhys for the link) I have came to this perfect setup (for me, of corse): if &term =~ "xterm" highlight clear SpellBad highlight SpellBad term=standout ctermfg=1 term=underline cterm=underline gui=undercurl guisp=Red highlight clear SpellCap highlight SpellCap term=underline cterm=underline gui=undercurl guisp=Blue highlight clear SpellRare highlight SpellRare term=underline cterm=underline gui=undercurl guisp=Magenta highlight clear SpellLocal highlight SpellLocal term=underline cterm=underline gui=undercurl guisp=DarkCyan endif Thank you, thank you, thank you very much!

This is a blessing. Thanks for the great article! The default spell checker color theme is really a royal pain in the eyes. This is a blessing. Thanks for the great article!

I doubt if the vim authors are getting any commission from eye doctors for doing this!! You just saved my eye!

It may be worthwhile to ammend them by adding 'gui=stuff' attributes to the 'highlight Spell*' commands following http://www.vim.org/htmldoc/syntax.html#:highlight Having played with these a bit more, it seems the ‘highlight clear’ commands clobber spell highlighting when using gvim.
