Indentation and syntax highlighting are two separate functions..

If the indent rules are similar to C/java/C++ etc, you can do :set
cindent and work with that. In simple cases, you can even work
with :set ai
For more information (especially if you are planning to write your own
indent script) see :help indent.txt and :help indent-expression
