sometimes colors don't show up

[dylnmc]

I know it can be hard to make colors always show up, but I don't think it should be that hard to make them always show up when they are delimited by whitespace. When editing my i3status.conf, I cannot see colors. Also, if you switch colorschemes, the colors disappear.

Maybe add a refresh option?

In gvim under Win10 the colors show up in my _vimrc, but not in my _gvimrc (for the "highlight" lines). I can't figure out why.
