That doesn't help if there's a "filetype on" or "syntax on" in the systemwide vimrc, as there is on many linux distros. :filetype off | filetype on should always work to make sure that all needed ftdetect files are sourced, regardless of what's in the systemwide rcs or what other commands have already been run. ~Matt -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
