# vim-fle-syntax
Vim syntax plugin for writing Fast Log Entry (https://df3cb.com/fle/) compatible log files in Vim.
# Screenshot

## Description
Vim syntax file to imitate the syntax highlighting of Fast Log Entry (FLE).
## Why?
Because it's nice to take a small GNU/Linux based laptop with me on portable operations, just log everything with Vim and do the rest at home.
## Extras / Shortcuts
You can insert the current time in UTC and HHMM format by pressing <F5> and the current date string by pressing <F6> if you add the following lines to your .vimrc file:
" set timezone to UTC
let $TZ='UTC'
" insert current time in HHMM format with <F5>
:nnoremap <F5> "=strftime("%H%M ")<CR>P
:inoremap <F5> <C-R>=strftime("%H%M ")<CR>
" insert current date with <F6>
:nnoremap <F6> "=strftime("date %G-%m-%d")<CR>P
:inoremap <F6> <C-R>=strftime("date %G-%m-%d")<CR>
## Install
Copy or symlink these files to your $VIMRUNTIME/syntax and $VIMRUNTIME/ftdetect directory or to
~/.vim/syntax and ~/.vim/ftdetect directories
