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.
 | 
						|
 |
