Support for vim in GNU screen

[ksze]

I use GNU screen all the time. When I run vim in GNU screen and enable :colors inkpot, everything turns black and white.

What's the proper way to make it work in GNU screen?

My GNU screen is configured to support 256 colours so I believe it's inkpot somehow not recognizing GNU screen?

Inkpot doesn't detect your terminal capabilities itself, it just uses Vim's detection. What does :echo &t_Co say? It should say 88 or 256.
