- Normalise interface heredoc highlighting with that used for
:let-heredocs.
- Remove interface feature testing. The Lua and Python interface
command scripts are now highlighted by default. Loading all syntax
files incurs an undesirable load-time burden so highlighting of the
less popular MzScheme, Perl, Ruby and Tcl interfaces is disabled by
default. g:vimsyn_embed can still be used to customise the supported
interfaces.
- Always highlight interface ex-commands as valid commands, even when
the corresponding command-script highlighting is disabled.
- Highlight simple command-script statements as well as heredocs.
- Remove error highlighting of heredoc and statement command-script
regions when an interface is disabled. These are now highlighted as
plain text.
- Allow indented heredoc end tokens when "trim" is specified.
- Match interface heredocs in :def functions.
- Fix runaway vimEmbedError regions. These regions have been removed.
- Use python2 syntax for :python, and :pythonx when 'pyxversion' is
appropriately set.

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 the vim-dev mailing list <vim-dev@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 the vim-dev
mailing list: <vim-dev@vim.org>.
If you are the maintainer of a syntax file and make improvements, send the new
version to the vim-dev mailing list: <vim-dev@vim.org>
For further info see ":help syntax" in Vim.
