thanks

Thanks for the patch.

Could you please even provide some JavaScript sample code on which the
misbehaviour of syntax highlighting is broken so that we can test the
patch before applying it and sending it upstream?

TIA,
Cheers.

Bug#343402: vim-runtime: JavaScript syntax highlighting broken

[Aaron Schrab]

Package: vim-runtime
Version: 1:6.4-004+1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

The javascript syntax highlighting file has redundant definitions of the
region javaScriptParen, the second of which is missing some contained
regions.  This causes most syntax highlighting to be disabled inside of
function definitions, and completely breaks syntax folding.

The attached patch fixes this.
