- This directory contains Vim scripts for syntax highlighting.
-
- These scripts are not for a language, but are used by Vim itself:
-
- syntax.vim Used for the ":syntax on" command. Uses synload.vim.
-
- manual.vim Used for the ":syntax manual" command. Uses synload.vim.
-
- synload.vim Contains autocommands to load a language file when a certain
- file name (extension) is used. And sets up the Syntax menu
- for the GUI.
-
- nosyntax.vim Used for the ":syntax off" command. Undo the loading of
- synload.vim.
-
-
- A few special files:
-
- 2html.vim Converts any highlighted file to HTML (GUI only).
- colortest.vim Check for color names and actual color on screen.
- hitest.vim View the current highlight settings.
- whitespace.vim View Tabs and Spaces.
-
-
- If you want to write a syntax file, read the docs at ":help usr_44.txt".
-
- If you make a new syntax file which would be useful for others, please send it
- to Bram@vim.org. Include instructions for detecting the file type for this
- language, by file name extension or by checking a few lines in the file.
- And please write the file in a portable way, see ":help 44.12".
-
- If you have remarks about an existing file, send them to the maintainer of
- that file. Only when you get no response send a message to Bram@vim.org.
-
- If you are the maintainer of a syntax file and make improvements, send the new
- version to Bram@vim.org.
-
- For further info see ":help syntax" in Vim.
