if the scheme is properly written it has a line assigning its
name to the global variable 'colors_name', for example:

let g:colors_name = "biogoo"

so you can query and use that

Thanks that works perfectly.
Now my problem is that in the colors scheme menu only appears the colors in the /usr/share/vim71/colors.
But I have add to the runtime another path using in my ~/.vimrc:
 " Set runtime paths
set runtimepath="/opt/myVim",$VIMRUNTIME

in /opt/myVim I have a folder called colors with my colorscheme, it  works perfectly with the :colorscheme command, so vim can find the color script, but it doesn't appear in the color scheme menu.
Any to include it in the vim menu?????
thx

Those quotes are causing trouble. A double quote is vim's comment
marker. If I execute that, runtimepath becomes blank.

Set that option before the menus are sourced (the ":filetype" and
":syntax" commands may source them implicitly in gvim), and with no
quotes in the option, e.g.

set rtp^=/opt/myVim rtp+=/opt/myVim/after
filetype plugin indent on
syntax on
" etc.

Note the use of ":set" with ^= (insert before) and += (insert after) so
the standard locations (such as ~/.vim and ~/.vim/after, which, unlike
what you wrote above, are login-name-dependent) will still be used if
populated.

And BTW, Vim 7.1 is old hat by now. The current stable version is
7.2.293 as of this writing.


Best regards,
Tony.
