I would like to post the following attached patch to the MAXIMA syntax file, so someone being responsible for such things can apply it.
Andre ---------- Forwarded Message ---------- Subject: VIM syntax file for MAXIMA Date: Tuesday 27 October 2009 From: andre maute <andre.ma...@gmx.de> To: Robert Dodier <robert.dod...@gmail.com> Dear Robert, I saw you are the author of the MAXIMA syntax file for the VIM editor. As the MAXIMA documentation states, MAXIMA supports nested multiline comments. My version of the synatx file shipped with my linux distro doesn't reflect this, the attached patch does the fix for me. Should I also post it on VIM mailinglist?
