runtime(colors): color names in the v:colornames dict should be lower cased Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/0f4054feb66ea55414f97add63b3070d7d7b5295 Author: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> Date: Mon Feb 5 10:30:01 2024 +0100 runtime(colors): color names in the v:colornames dict should be lower cased Vim will lookup color names from the v:colornames dictionary by its lower case color name. So when sourcing the v:colornames dictionary, make sure to convert upper case color names to lower case. Also, while at it, mention in the documentation, that the dictionary should contain lower case names only. fixes: #13976 Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>
