AnsiEsc overwrites my ctermbg=None

[lucidstack]

Hi there,

Thanks for maintaining this essential plugin for us AnsiEsc'ers 😁

Unfortunately I have an issue with my background. In three pictures:

I have

highlight Normal  ctermbg=none
highlight NonText ctermbg=none

in my .vimrc, and I suppose that this line is overriding my ctermbg for good, leaving me with the only solution of sourcing my .vimrc whenever I use AnsiEsc.

Am I doing something wrong? Would there be a way to tell AnsiEsc to apply the syntax rules only to the designated buffer, and leave the ctermbg untouched in the rest of the editor?

Thank you a lot in advance!

On my system this doesn't happens, so I suppose issue may be not in AnsiEsc but in your vimrc.
I didn't have highlight in .vimrc, instead I've moved my setup into .vim/colors/myscheme.vim and added colorscheme myscheme in .vimrc. Maybe this somehow helps work around this issue.

you are absolutely right, good sir. Tweaking my colour scheme a bit fixed the issue. AnsiEsc is just reapplying the syntax of my colour scheme, and rightfully skipping the ctermbg stuff in my .vimrc.

Thank you for enlightening me! 😀
