Check if your vi/vim has syntax highlighting enabled:

  vi --version | fgrep  syntax

If -syntax is on the line, you don't have syntax highlighting compiled in.
  - Did you install vim-enhanced, and does the command "vi" use it?
  - Try "vim" instead.
- If you didn't install vim-enhanced, I suggest getting the vim source, preferably applying the patches, and compiling it yourself: 1. ftp [EMAIL PROTECTED] (use your [EMAIL PROTECTED] for the password)
    2. cd pub/vim/unix
    3. binary
    4. get vim-7.1.tar.bz2
    5.  quit
6. (pick a suitable directory to have vim71 under), and bunzip2 vim-7.1.tar.bz2
    7. tar -xf vim-7.1.tar
    8. cd vim71
    9.  configure --with-features=huge
   10. make
   11. go to superuser mode
   12. cd src
   13. make install

  If +syntax is on the line, you do have syntax highlighting available.
   - Does your .vimrc turn on "non-compatability"?
   - Does your .vimrc have syntax highlighting enabled?
  As a minimal .vimrc, I suggest having the following in your <.vimrc>:

   set nocp
   if version >= 600
     filetype plugin indent on
   endif
