I am using genome terminal in Ubuntu 16.04 (just in case!)

I set my colorscheme to atomdark and I have atomdark.vim in both my ~/.vim/colors and /usr/share/vim/vim74/colors.

I set this in my .vimrc file

set t_Co=256                           
syntax enable                           
colorscheme atomdark

but when ever I start vim its o a different colorscheme and if I save the vimrc file by :w the atom dark color scheme will be set but every time I start vim I should do the saving . If I don't, it will be on the default colorscheme every vim start.

Note: Tried the scriptnames and tracked down some paths but I could not understand a word of it. If it is the case I need specific help for it.

You seem completely lost.

  1. /usr/share/vim/ is off-limits for you. Whatever you do to customize Vim, do it in ~/.vim/.

  2. The correct option is t_Co, not t_CO.

  3. 265 is not a correct value. 1, 8, 16, 88, 256 are correct values.

  4. That option is useless anyway. You should set up your terminal emulator correctly instead.
