|
|
2
|
|
3 These scripts are not for a language, but are used by Vim itself:
|
|
4
|
|
5 syntax.vim Used for the ":syntax on" command. Uses synload.vim.
|
|
6
|
|
7 manual.vim Used for the ":syntax manual" command. Uses synload.vim.
|
|
8
|
|
9 synload.vim Contains autocommands to load a language file when a certain
|
|
10 file name (extension) is used. And sets up the Syntax menu
|
|
11 for the GUI.
|
|
12
|
|
13 nosyntax.vim Used for the ":syntax off" command. Undo the loading of
|
|
14 synload.vim.
|

17 A few special files:
|
|
18
|
|
19 2html.vim Converts any highlighted file to HTML (GUI only).
|

25 If you want to write a syntax file, read the docs at ":help usr_44.txt".
|
|
26
|
|
27 If you make a new syntax file which would be useful for others, please send it
|
|
28 to Bram@vim.org. Include instructions for detecting the file type for this
|
|
29 language, by file name extension or by checking a few lines in the file.
|
|
30 And please write the file in a portable way, see ":help 44.12".
|
|
31
|
|
32 If you have remarks about an existing file, send them to the maintainer of
|
|
33 that file. Only when you get no response send a message to Bram@vim.org.
|
|
34
|
|
35 If you are the maintainer of a syntax file and make improvements, send the new
|
|
36 version to Bram@vim.org.
