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.
|
|
|
|
The "shared" directory contains generated files and what is used by more than
|
|
one syntax.
|
|
|
|
|
|
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.
|
