Some of the themes are ridiculous, comments so dark grey that I have to spend 2-3 seconds adjusting my eyes so I can read them. What the christ..

Have you not tried Zenburn yet?

In case you guys didn't realize, or forgot, 7.3 has relative line numbering.

It's really useful for moving around with the movement keys and in visual mode. You don't have to count lines anymore, or move to the closest curly bracket to jump down.

Also, using 82gg or 98G to fix errors at a line still works. The relative line numbers are purely visual. Here's a snippet from my .vimrc about relative line numbers.

code:

set relativenumber

" Always show line numbers, but only in current window.
:au WinEnter * :setlocal relativenumber
:au WinLeave * :setlocal norelativenumber

" Absolute Line Numbers in Insert Mode
:au InsertEnter * :set number
:au InsertLeave * :set relativenumber

Ah, I rarely ever hide my buffers, or show only one at a time.

So, WinEnter/Leave always worked for me. I don't use the gui version, though, so I'm sure that's a part of it all.
