Hi,
I want to add some extra syntax highlighting to my latex documents. I
am writing a thesis, so I have separate files for each chapter.
For example, I add this in ~/vimfiles/extra/syntax/tex.vim
syn region texFootnote matchgroup=texStatement start="\\footnote{" end="}"
hi link texFootnote Special
Now in my latex file let's say I have this:
\chapter{Introduction}
bla bla bla \footnote{see here for more bla}
The highlighting does not work. But if I comment out the \chapter
command then it does. So the syntax highlighting of \chapter is
affecting whether or not my additional syntax works.
I am sure there is something simple that I need to do to make this
work, but the intricacies of the syntax highlighting system elude me.
Can anyone tell me what the right move is here?
Thanks
Brett
