Simply, the syntax highlighting sometimes gets messed up and I have to refresh the window (with c-l) in order make the highlighting correct again. I have been experiencing this for a while. Is there an effort to fix this? Well, this one is more of a trade-off than a bug (speed vs accuracy). I suggest reading: :help syn-sync . Regards, Chip Campbell

Is there an effort to fix this? I often see empty plastic cups laying around. Is there an effort to fix this? My point is: Everybody knows display errors should be fixed. Syntax highlighting is different for every language. If you see a problem with one, try contacting the maintainer (mentioned in the syntax file header). -- BRIDGEKEEPER: What is your favorite colour?

Is there an effort to fix this? The syncing could probably be better, but this problem is sometimes unavoidable. Knowing what filetype the problem occurs for would help in investigating the issue further. I don't know if sometimes it's unavoidable, but definitely sometimes it is avoidable. In my experience, it happened probably at least once with every filetype I've worked with. Just off the top of my head, it happened yesterday in a JSP file, and later in a Perl file. And it seems to happen a lot in HTML files. nikolai

And it seems to happen a lot in HTML files. Well, I see a number of syn sync statements in syntax/html.vim, so Claudio Feiner has certainly tried to help out with this. Nick Hibma with perl, too. syntax/jsp.vim doesn't have any synchronization; probably the htmlTag and jspCommand regions therein could use them. Contact Rafael Garcia-Suarez about it. On your end, you could increase your syn sync minlines parameter (see :help syn-sync-minlines). Regards, Chip Campbell
