/etc/issue.logo + how to get it coloured

Post #1 of 7 (1839 views)

Guys,

I just found /etc/issue.logo when I was using /etc/issue.

I like the colour.

How do I get this ^[ to turn blue in Vim?
(I believe it's a command/key sequence)

Copying from issue.logo and pasting to issue doesn't do it justice

This is a vim question unrelated to Gentoo.

There is no justice: cat /etc/issue.logo >> /etc/issue

The file /etc/issue.logo contains special color codes for bash. You
should check a bash manual about color codes...
It's a while backslash thingy....

C-V C-[ [ 3 0 ; 4 1 m

(in this case, you get red on black)

3x: foreground color
4x: background color
0 - black 1 - red
2 - green 3 - yellow
4 - blue 5 - magenta
6 - cyan 7 - white

Hmm.. I realise that I do not know how to get the command sequence "C-V
C-["

Even after googling, I can't find anything that has that..
