Disable ALL bold font in gvim on windows ?

[skywi...@163.com]

Hi, All

Is there a simply way to get all bold font disappeared (gvim under windows ) ?

Having searched a lot for solutions, I found NONE of them can actually work.

solution 1:  make a copy of colorscheme file & modify it remove 'gui=bold' attribute.

problem: keyword 'bold' just cannot be found in my colorscheme: seoul256.vim

solution 2: set guifont manually without 'b' attribute

problem: guifont has been set to "fixedsys" without the 'b' and still no use.

solution 3: modify syntax files

problem: too many syntax files need to be edit, and I am trying to avoid modifying runtime files directly.

--------------------

See ? bold font is really ugly with fixedsys.

my setting is:

set guifont=fixedsys

color seoul256

url of seoul256 is: https://github.com/junegunn/seoul256.vim 

gvim version: 7.4.2028

---------------------------------------------------

I have searched almost a whole day for solutions, 

don't want to waste everyone's time if I can solve it myself

And at last, I just can't get any idea now, but ask for help in this mailling list

any other solutions ?

I think you don't just need to remove all 'bold' specification, you need to explicitly reset it, as noted in :help bold, for example with "highlight Pmenu guibg=darkgrey guifg=black gui=NONE"

[Tony Mechelynck]

IIUC gui=NONE should go before any of guibg= guifg= guisp= because
attributes are applied in the order found. If you put gui=NONE at the
end it would (IIUC) clear all the rest. OTOH if you want to use
italics you can use gui=NONE,italic

Best regards,
Tony.

I think you would need a script like this.
