I have a vi plugin for visual studio. It's called vsvim, and as far as I remember I installed it in the extension manager gui.

If you are programmer with not enough background with the language i don't thing that the best practice is to disable the coloring of the text. I think that the language itself it is not so easy to do such practice. And beside that coloring can save you hours of debugging in some cases like this for example.
A enough experienced c++ / colorblind programmer can disable the coloring without lowering his or hers productivity.

When you become practised in the art then you simply hold your hands above the keyboard in supplication and the code writes itself out of fear of reprisals.

I can only dream of achieving such heights.

Yes, we do know PMs have a quite twisted perception of the software development process.

Hey man, hats off to vi: it provides syntax colouring as well.
And you can rely on colourization. Well, unless you write something like
for (n=0; n<100; ++n);
{
doSomething();
}
Veni, vidi, vici.

The compilers I've used give a warning in cases like this.

Who looks at warnings? nobody that works with me, sadly 
|
|
|
|
|
I don't - I have "treat warnings as errors" set on my projects to prevent compilation succeeding!

People here don't read error messages, so even if i set that they would just ignore
|
|
|
|
|
That's the whole point: if you set "treat warnings as errors" then compilation fails until the warning is fixed. You can't run or test you app until you do.

My old boss once jokingly said that he was still waiting for the "treat errors as warnings" flag. 
The good thing about pessimism is, that you are always either right or pleasently surprised.

Many programmers use "treat errors as warnings" flag.
|
|
|

I just make sure my code compiles without warnings.
If I really cannot avoid a warning, I use a pragma to disable a specific warning, with an explanatory comment.

Priceless. He sure got a lot of down votes for that one!
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

haha hilarious, what happened in the end? Did he come clean to his tutor?

No idea.
I gave him 25 hours to be kind, and then sent the email. He hasn't been back since...

I like how he's told that they won't delete anything and he's like "Ok guys tnx at least delete this thread so she won't think I was doing anything wrong".

I just found this in some ancient C code:
if (number_of_records > 0)
{}
else
{}
I'd love to know what the original programmer was intending to do here because I have to maintain this crap!

He was just explaining syntax of if...else to his/her co-programmer. The co-programmer was free to cook anything between these {}.

There is the code I was looking for! Could you please tell me what file its in now
