Vim9 now interprets '#' as the start of comment, but I use this character in color setting files. For instance:

hi Todo guifg=#d14a14 guibg=#1248d1 ctermfg=red ctermbg=darkblue

    Strictly speaking, this is only a problem if you decide to use vim9 syntax. You can keep using the old syntax indefinitely if vim9 is inconvenient for you (but you will give up some performance improvements).

In vim9 comment starts with either space+# or beginning of the line and # (as far as I remember). So your color setting would still work.

  1. :h vim9
  2. /Comments starting<CR>
To improve readability there must be a space between a command and the #
that starts a comment: >
    var name = value # comment
    var name = value# error!
