vim doesn't like it if you put TERM types it doen'st recognise - and eterm apparently isn't one of em
just put
export TERM=rxvt
in your ~/.bashrc or something
vim works with transparency and the works eith rxvt termtype (even if you still use etersm or aterms etc)
i think export TERM=xterm works t - but the color hightlighting doen'st come out so great

Hmm I've never had that problem before:
| Code: | [timmfin@timmfin] ~ $ echo $TERM
Eterm
[timmfin@timmfin] ~ $ vi
[timmfin@timmfin] ~ $ |
Works fine here, and I used vim and Eterm for a long time (although I have not upgrade vim in a long time either) Did you just emerge vim 6.2? |

| The vi which comes from the vi ebuild (not the vim one) does not like Eterms. If you "emerge vim", things will become OK (it will replace ex with a symlink to vim, which in effect "aliases" vi to vim since vi is set up as a symlink to ex by both the vi and vim ebuilds.) |

if what Naan Yaar said is correct and your using vi, not vim then i'd strongly suggest upgrading - vim is all of vi and more - you have nothing to lose!

This means taht you do not have valid /usr/share/terminfo/E/Eterm file.
You should save the following as Eterm.ti
| Code: |

Then do the following (as root of course)
| Code: |
# tic Eterm.ti
# chmod 644 /usr/share/terminfo/E/Eterm
|
Now, you will have fully functional Eterm.  |

I had the same problem - appeared after upgrading Eterm to 0.9.4 - IMHO the best solution is:
| Code: |
cd /usr/share/terminfo/E
ln -s ../e/eterm Eterm
|
It looks like someone forgot about capitalising the letter in the new version...  |

Should probably be reported as a bug then... |

Hmm, though now I have found that the "Eterm.ti" file is in the source package, and when you run "tic Eterm.ti" it produces a terminfo file which is different from the "/usr/share/terminfo/e/eterm".  So the best option would probably be to unpack the file manually and run tic Eterm.ti - or use the one provided by mdoko a few posts earlier.
I will look into bugzilla and file a bug if there is not one already. |

Yeah, vim will display stuff ok after doing the symlink thing, but it still doesn't handle colors or any of that properly (strangely, only within vim...). I tested aterm and xterm on the same box, and they're doing the syntax highlighting correctly so it appears to be a bug with the Eterm ebuild. Basically, syntax highlighting (even for simple stuff like java files) is completely busted.
Any tips on how to extract the Eterm.ti from the ebuild? Or do you mean you grabbed the source from upstream?
Thanks,

The Eterm.ti file is in the source package for eterm, which gets downloaded into your distfiles directory:
| Code: |
rm /usr/share/terminfo/E/Eterm
tar -xzf `portageq distdir`/Eterm-0.9.4.tar.gz Eterm-0.9.4/doc/Eterm.ti
tic Eterm-0.9.4/doc/Eterm.ti
rm -Rf Eterm-0.9.4
|
and it should be working. Btw. I have also filed it into bugzilla. |
