New issue 126 by [email protected]: [PATCH] Fix broken syntax
highlighting for sh after runtime files update
http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=126
I recently upgraded vim on Arch Linux which broke syntax highlighting of
certain shell scripts. An example of such script:
#!/bin/sh
foo=$(cmd --arg)
echo "$foo"
With 7.3.834-1, the syntax highlighting was fine. Since 7.3.875-1, the
syntax highlighting was broken. Try it yourself:
vim -u /dev/null +'syntax on' foo.sh
I bisected (git-remote-hg :-) ) it to:

shOption causes the invalid syntax highlighting here. The attached patch
makes the `--` option stop at the closing parenthese too (seriously, who
uses `--)`) anyway? It is a syntax error). Applied on top of 3.7.875,
current workaround is to copy the file from
/usr/share/vim/vim73/syntax/sh.vim into ~/.vim/syntax/sh.vim and apply the
patch.
