bashrc and set a TERMRESPONSE environment variable to the response. Vimrc had been processed, so I added the termresponse query to my I didn't like that Vim wouldn't know the terminal type until after Server, but if that's not a problem for the OP, then this technique The problem with it is that TMUX is not normally exported by an ssh ' because setting 'term' also sets dependent termcap ' Note that this must be set _after_ any setting of 'term' ' terminal by using DCS with a 'tmux ' prefix. ' Support passing through escape sequences to the underlying You can prefix the normal escape sequence with Ptmux to > Or maybe we need some new sequence to query the name of the outer 'background'' and put this in your vimrc: Your best bet may be to follow the suggestion in ':help 'screen-256color' is not one of the names it checks. Vim does try to guess the background from the terminal name, but That last is actually the response Vim received from the t_RB query. You can verify this by executing any of the following. The t_RB option, but if TERM is 'screen-256color', that option is Vim tries to determine the background color from the terminal using 'light', as it says in ':help 'background''.

This is a bit involving, terminal/tmux/vim all could have problems. With iTerm2, background is detected correctly in the second case, but still worn't work when you really use tmux. With terminal.app and alacritty.app background is detected as light in both cases. Open vim, and query set background? and colorscheme.In tmux conf set TERM to screen-256color. Open tmux in a terminal with dark background.Two way to test, really use tmux or make vim think you are using tmux by setting TERM

default.vim is hard to read in dark background. Then default.vim instead of ron.vim is used. In a terminal with dark background, when you set TERM=screen-256color or really run tmux which requires TERM set to screen-256color, the background is always detected as light.
