I modified a colorscheme file which generates E419/E420 errors when loading, but I would like to ignore them silently. silent! and try/catch aren't working for me.
My .vimrc is shown below. All the loading of the "theme" is done at source ~/.vim/theme.vim.
.vimrc
set backspace=2
set tabstop=4
set shiftwidth=4
set softtabstop=4
set expandtab
set smarttab
:au FileType cpp setlocal tabstop=2 shiftwidth=2 softtabstop=2 cindent
:au FileType tcl setlocal tabstop=2 shiftwidth=2 softtabstop=2
:au FileType make setlocal noexpandtab
source ~/.vim/theme.vim
set cursorline
set hlsearch
set showmatch
set matchtime=0
syntax enable
set number
set relativenumber
nmap <F3> :set nu! rnu!<CR>
nnoremap Q <nop>
" *last-position-jump*
:au BufReadPost * if line("'\"") > 1 && line("'\"") <= line("$") | exe "normal! g`\"" | endif
Attempt 1: ~/.vim/theme.vim
set t_Co=256
let g:gruvbox_termcolors=16
set background=dark
silent! colorscheme gruvbox
Using silent! I still get these errors whenever I start vim:
Error detected while processing function <SNR>3_HL:
line 43:
E419: FG color unknown
E420: BG color unknown
E420: BG color unknown
E420: BG color unknown
E419: FG color unknown
E419: FG color unknown
E419: FG color unknown
E419: FG color unknown
E419: FG color unknown
E419: FG color unknown
E419: FG color unknown
Press ENTER or type command to continue
Attempt 2: ~/.vim/theme.vim
set t_Co=256
let g:gruvbox_termcolors=16
set background=dark
try
colorscheme gruvbox
catch
endtry
Using try/catch, I still get the same errors as above.
Attempt 3: ~/.vimrc
I also tried the same techniques directly in my ~/.vimrc, wrapping them around the source command, but I still get the same errors.
silent! source ~/.vim/theme.vim
try
source ~/.vim/theme.vim
catch
endtry
How can I silence these errors every time I launch vim?
