title: How can I activate Vim color schemes in OS X's Terminal?
body: <p>I'm working with the Vim 7.2 that comes with Mac OS 10.6.1 (Leopard), using the Mac's "Terminal" app. I'd like to use a fancy color scheme. I did this...</p>
  
  <pre><code>:syntax on
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Then this...</p>
  
  <pre><code>:colorscheme slate
  
  :colorscheme elflord
  
  :colorscheme desert
  
  etc...
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Syntax highlighting is working, but I'm finding that regardless of the scheme I choose, the only colors displayed are the basic Red, Blue, Cyan, Gray, etc.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to get the Terminal app to display a larger collection of colors to allow some more subtle schemes?</p>
