vim blinking when editing with unsaved tabs

[szw]

ok... perhaps it's connected with redrawing... I have an idea how it could be fixed. I'll try to push it in a minute.

[szw]

Ok, please check how does it work for you now.

Hi, @szw! I just updated and isn't fixed yet.

[szw]

Well, so it's not that case. But redrawing just the current status line is better anyway. Ok, I'd like to ask you to check with vanilla Vim (no other plugins). And could you provide a link here to your .vimrc (gist, pastie or whatever)?

Moreover, I've found this: junegunn/seoul256.vim#3. Perhaps this is connected with your issue too?

Hi, @szw! Sorry the delay!

I tried to put that option in my configuration, but the screen continues to blink... Here is my .vimrc.

Thank you!

Hi @tarciozemel!

Thanks for your .vimrc. Could you provide more info about your setup, os, Vim version, terminal, etc. I'd like to try to reproduce that issue somehow.

[tarciozemel]

I'm running Ubuntu 13.04 with terminal (Guake) Vim 7.4.113 built from source.

Hope this help, I believe other people have that same issue.

Regards!

Can you also check if that issue happens on the "vanilla" Vim (no other plugins)?
What's is your TERM value? Do you use multiplexers (like screen or tmux)?

[tarciozemel]

I started Vim with --noplugin and ran :source ~/.vim/bundle/vim-ctrlspace/plugin/ctrlspace.vim. If the test was made right, the blinking not happens, so this isn't a CtrlSpace issue! :-)

About the others, how do I check what's my TERM value and if I'm using multiplexers?

[szw]

That's good! 👍 ;)

To print out the TERM variable use echo $TERM in the terminal. As to multiplexers, if you asking, I guess you are not using them ;). If you are curious more about TMux this post looks like a nice intro.
