The problem I see with ":syn sync minlines" is that with very big files (and the OP was talking about a file that was almost 2MB) is very difficult to find the correct value for "minlines". If one has to work a lot on that file, probably finding a proper value for "minlines" is worth the effort. Otherwise I would use "fromstart", although it is kind of an exaggeration. On the other hand, knowing the number of lines in the file is more or less easy to make an educated guess about the proper value for "minlines", which is going to be better in performance terms. -- Raúl "DervishD" Núñez de Arenas Coronado Linux Registered User 88736 | http://www.dervishd.net It's my PC and I'll cry if I want to...
