I am having a problem with a vim color file. It colors everything the way I
want it, except for Braces. I set this color file as the default to use in
my .vimrc file. When I go in to edit a file, say a java file, however,
everything colorizes perfectly, but the braces, brackets, curly brackets,
and parenthesis don't color. To get them to color, I have to run the color
command with the appropriate color filename. Can anyone help me out with
this? I'm assuming it's a syntax error in the color file. The file is:
" peterv0.vim - Vim color file

4 set background=dark
5 hi clear
6 if exists("syntax_on")

I'd really appreciate help with this.
The place for a ":syn match" command is not in a colorscheme (which is
only sourced once, when the ":colorscheme" command is issued, and maybe
again if you set ":syntax on" after using "syntax off"), but in a syntax
script (which is sourced every time a file of the concerned filetype is
opened). If you want to apply that Braces synmatch to all files, then
you might add to your vimrc the following (untested)
if has('autocmd') && has('syntax')
au VimEnter * au Syntax * syn match Braces display '[]{}()[]'
endif
while keeping the Braces highlight command in your colorscheme.
Otherwise that :syn match command should go (I think) in
~/vimfiles/after/syntax/whatever.vim (on Windows), or
~/.vim/after/syntax/whatever.vim (on Unix), replacing "whatever" by the
syntax type (which is usually the filetype).
Best regards,
Tony.
