Is there a terminal emulator which allows half block cursor? The main reason I want this is that in vim when some words are highlighted it's difficult to see where the cursor is:

enter image description here

In this pic I have set the cursor to appear as an underline in konsole, but still it's not easy to spot it.

Why don't you simply use a different color for the cursor?

  • Yeah, that's what I am doing right now, I still prefer a half block though, it gives you a hint that the text is highlighted and also the cursor is in the highlighted area.

Terminal emulators generally allow you to change the cursor shape.

See e.g. vim tips #1622 and #746.
