[Gllug] vim nasty colours

Something that I ought to know & discovered once, but forgot.

I have to use vi/vim on one machine, and the poxy thing insists on trying to
colourise (or should I say colorize ?) shell scripts & the such. The result is
that they are completely unreadable (eg dark blue on my black background).
How do I switch this perverse misfeature off ? I want it black & white (as God intended).

I have searched through the documentation but can't see anything.
