Re: VIM in rxvt syntax highlighting
The recent installation of vim lacks the default startup file that earlier vesions had. So: place in your home directory (/home/alec/ or whatever) a file called .vimrc (note the dot) containing set nocompatible set backspace=indent,eol,start set backup set history=50 set ruler set background=dark set showcmd set incsearch syntax on set hlsearch or, to make it accessible to all users, put these lines in a file called vimrc (no dot) in the /usr/share/vim/ directory. Hope this helps. (I don't know which lines cause the syntax hghlighting -- probably just line -1? -- but the other lines seem to make vim work in the way I'm used to, anyway.)

does the :version display +syntax? if yes, do syntax on vipin - Original Message - From: Alec [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 28, 2002 2:03 PM Subject: Re: VIM in rxvt syntax highlighting On Thursday 28 February 2002 03:08 am, Fergus Daly wrote: In your command line for rxvt try rxvt --backspacekey ^H -e bash which might help. It does. However, there's another problem I just noticed: The syntax highlighting isn't colored, but black and white. What can I do about that?

Is your syntax highlighted in COLOR? Mine isn't. Well, not in rxvt-2.7.2. It is colored in the default terminal emulator though.
