How to use vim airline or powerline on windows command promt? -
i trying use vim airline on windows 8(x86). have managed working in gvim 7.4 successfully.
how can same on vim running in command prompt?
what can deduce research cmd not displaying unicode characters , color different ( have set t_co=256 on vimrc ). have patched font installed , using on cmd (by adding on registry).
cmd cannot display fancy glyphs, example ⮀ getting replaced '>'.
i have tried on console2. possible option consistent look?
the vim running in windows console limited 16 colors (and limited font attributes), no matter :set t_co
to.
likewise, display of unicode characters difficult , depends on correct codepage. 1 chcp 65001
unicode one, doesn't seem work vim.
in end, see little reason use windows console vim when have gvim. on unix, there's issue ssh
'ing box easier , more common x forwarding, don't have kind of remoting on windows, anyway. also, windows shell more crippled bash
/ zsh
/ your favorite here, , windows in general far less oriented towards command-line, there's no benefit launching vim , other tools same shell continuously.
