Hi Patrick and list! There is already a vim syntax highlighting script present see https://github.com/vim-scripts/fish.vim i have not used it myself but looking at it it seems to be correct although somewhat old (2005/11/08).
I also find the information for new users somewhat lacking and problematic in a few areas, i have been on the hunt for a new and better shell for a few months now and just passed by fish without even testing it based on info which has proven to be incorrect. The statements around the web that the project is abandoned when its not, that it using a bad syntax when in fact its using a nicely written and very well designed one was some of the reasons i didn't even try the shell until i got irritated at the complete syntax in zsh. I hope that the "new" site will rectify some of these problems and it would also be good if the old one could be brought down. Has anyone tried to contact Mr Axel? Or does anyone know why he has abandoned the project? One other thing i have been wondering is why the fish completions posted at the Arch wiki isnt in the main repo? Those along with the ones present in "private" git repos would just add to the value of the shell (ex https://github.com/esodax/fishystuff/ functions and completions).
