In the end, adding a vimrc feature was not too difficult, so I have
added that. See the dev branch at github. For usage, see the example
at tests/vim/vimrc.tex.


I uploaded a new version of vim module with this feature. See 'Tuning
color schemes' in the user-guide for a terse documentation.

Sorry for the late answer, I've been on the road a lot the last few days 
and didn't have the time to test the new changes.


Anyway, I now did test them and it works very well. Thanks for 
implementing this very versatile feature! :-)

I have not tested this feature beyond that test file.

this particular case -- i.e. switching syntax modes -- works well
(which may be the only necessary case).


That is certainly possible, but the exact solution depends on how robust
you want it to be. I can easily add an option so that

\definevimtyping
[]
[extras={let g:is_bash=1}]

will pass the argument to vim. However, string arguments like

\definevimtyping
[]
[extras={let g:name="Whatever"}]

will not work. The reason is that, t-vim first creates a command line
argument that is passed to mtxrun. mtxrun parses the entire expression,
including all the options, When mtxrun figures out that all the
arguments were meant for an external program, it recreates the list of
arguments (to the best of its abilities), and passes the arguments to
the shell. Then the shell tries to interpret the quotes. I haven't been
able to find a solution that will work correctly though these three
transformations.

Another option is to write everything to an external file and source it
as a vimrc file. So, you could do:

\definevimtyping
[...]
[vimrc=shell]

\startvimrc[shell]
let g:is_bash = 1
\stopvimrc

This requires more coding, but is much more flexible than the first option.

Do all syntax highlighting options work with 0/1 parameters? If so, then
the first alternative is easiest.


As far as I can see, most of the relevant options (if not all) are 0/1 
switches, so the first alternative should be enough. Thanks to the pipe 
syntax of vim's command mode, it might be even possible specify more 
parameters that way. [extras={let g:foo=bar | let g:shaz=bot}] -- at 
least vim accepts that usually, I guess it doesn't make a difference if 
specified as commandline parameter.


However I also like the idea of the optional vimrc via buffer. I think 
it might be a nice-to-have feature for the ToDo list :-)


Thank you for the analysis and for coming up with these possible 
implementations!

[NTG-context] Custom parameters/options for t-vim

2011-08-30 Thread Andreas Schneider

Hi,

I worked with t-vim a bit more and encountered a small problem with the 
way vim handles syntax definitions. Some of them have several modes that 
get activated by setting a variable first. For example the syntax "sh" 
(shell scripts) can be enhanced for bash, ksh, etc.


Example:
let g:is_bash=1
set syntax=sh

Now a line like "export foo=bar" is highlighted differently than when I 
would omit the "let g:is_bash=1".


Therefore I would propose another options to \setupvimtyping to specify 
custom options to be passed to vim. Preferably they should be passed at 
least before the "set syntax=..." line to make sure that this particular 
case -- i.e. switching syntax modes -- works well (which may be the only 
necessary case).
