Title: Vim Highlighting Groups: Diff, Folds, Search, Line Numbers, Popup Menus, and More
Summary
This section details a wide array of Vim's built-in highlighting groups, encompassing various aspects of the editor's interface and functionality. It includes groups for diff mode (DiffAdd, DiffChange, DiffDelete, DiffText), folded code (Folded, FoldColumn), search results (IncSearch, Substitute), line numbers (LineNr, CursorLineNr), and popup menus (Pmenu, PmenuSel, PmenuKind, etc.). Additionally, it covers highlighting for messages, non-text areas, normal text in different window states, and other elements like the sign column and match parentheses.
