Get colors using Mac OS X terminal when editing source code in remote linux machines

macos, vim

Solution

Have you used `:syntax enable` in vim on the remote machine? Just asking, since on the ones that are working it could be in `.vimrc` or similar.

Problem

I use terminal from Mac OS X Leopard to connect to remote Linux machines and edit C++ code there using VI. What determines that in some machines, using the same MACOSX terminal settings, the source code gets colorized and in other not? Thanks
