I recommend going to http://www.vim.org and get a copy of the .vimrc
then modify to suit your needs.

Another option is go to google and search for vimrc

Haven't tried to change individual colors, but when using a black background
I find that inserting a "set background=dark" after the "syntax on" config
statement works wonders.

I use vim for coding and email.
