watches on variables etc.

Hi all you vim fans.
Is it possible to colour code text in vim? What I would like to do is
make vim colour my .c files while I edit them. For example, it would be
good to see all the comments coded a different colour.
How do you do this?
Thanks.
Mark.
I am trying to learn a little more about just what daemons I need
running for the system to work and what I can do without.
Now, when I installed Debian, I told dselect to not install things like:
ftpd, telnetd, fingerd, talkd, and identd. From memory, the installer
wanted to put these on by

Is there something wrong with acroread or my system?

Hi all,
What is the best (simplest) way to read .doc files from within Mutt?
For example, I can read .pdf files straight away on trying to open their

So, two questions:

I have decided to purchase a new scanner and printer - especially since

I intend to ditch my Canon models to a friend and won't buy Canon again.
