Generally, it is not a good practice to use // or /* */ to comment out
codes. (a better approach might be "#if 0" and "#endif"), so if you use #if
0 there would not be problem.
If you just want all identifiers to be valid word, there has been somewhere
a method to permenantly add all identifiers in a tags file to your
dictionary. But it is inconvinient, since tags file will change frequently,
and you may want to use different tags file with different project.

It works fine for me. Perhaps you have something in your startup scripts that prevents the prompt from showing up. Try running "gvim -u NONE thefile". If it works OK then, put a "finish" command in various positions in your _vimrc or remove plugins to find out which one causes the problem. -- FATHER:Who are you? PRINCE:I'm ... your son ...

Regarding my question previously why Vim does not prompt for encryption when opening via `Edit with Vim` option available by right click on the file from Windows Explorer, I think I have found out why. In my _vimrc file, I put a line to remove the toolbar by running `:emenu Edit.Global Settings.Toggle Toolbar` command instead of `set guioptions-=T` command. Removing this line makes Vim prompt for the file encryption key while opening an encrypted file. Is this really how Vim is expected to act in this situation? Well, that just solved the problem of which Vim does not prompt for encryption key. Regarding Vim display the content of the encrypted file without prompting for encryption key, may be it's just something I did though I don't know what. I decide so because when I try to reproduce the situation, it does not show the content of the encrypted file in plain text. I apologize for this false report. Many thanks for the response.

How to avoid highlighting identifiers as misspelt words?
Hello,
I'd like to know if there is a way to tell Vim to recognize identifiers
occurring inside the comments/strings in source code as being valid words.
E.g. if I have
// function foo() does whatever it does
~~~
void foo() { ... }
and "spell" option is on, the first "foo" is highlighted as a misspelt word
as indicated above (the second one isn't as spell checking is done only inside
comments and strings (which is good, but not quite enough)). Is there any way
to ignore all identifiers for spell checking? E.g. ignore all words occurring
outside of comments/strings in the same buffer or maybe all identifiers from
the tags file or maybe something even better which I didn't think of?
Thanks in advance for any ideas,
VZ

Try putting this in your vimrc:

if getline('.')[col('.')-3] == a:type
return "\"
endif
return ""
endfunction
inoremap ) )=ParenBack('(')
inoremap ] ]=ParenBack('[')

Basically, this jumps your cursor left one character if you type a
closing parenthesis/bracket and there's nothing between it the
matching bracket, otherwise it leaves your cursor position alone.
There are other auto-bracketing scripts on but I don't
use any of them so I can't recommend one.
You could add a mapping for > as well:
