gvimdiff default color scheme

[Roy Fulbright]

How can I specify a default color scheme for gvimdiff that is different from my default color scheme when opening a single file? Thanks.

If you mean a particular file has a different color scheme:

Probably this in your vimrc would suffice:

if has('gui_running')
colorscheme B
else
colorscheme A
endif

If I am not mistaken, this should work:

if v:progname =~ "vimdiff"
colorscheme a
else
colorscheme b
endif

But this does not seem to work on Windows, cause the gvimdiff.bat file,
simply calls gvim. Oh well, may be, this works for Windows as well:

if &diff
colorscheme a
else
colorscheme b
endif

Or, if you want a more dynamic approach, this might work as well

colors a
au FilterWritePost * if &diff | colors b | else | colors a | endif
au BufLeave * colors a
