Hi,
I sent the question "write a very basic syntax file" yesterday to this forum.
Thanks to the help provided I managed to write it.
But I have a couple of related questions.
====================================
(1) I was suggested to search for the inline help
:help new-filetype
However, if I do that, I get this
"filetype.txt.gz" [readonly][noeol][converted] 26L, 12168C
E434: Can't find tag pattern
Press ENTER or type command to continue
And therefore after hitting ENTER I only get garbage.
Why did that happen?
====================================
(2) Following the recommendations, I created a new filetype file as
$HOME/.vim/filetype.vim
and the syntax file as
$HOME/.vim/syntax/myfile.vim
But what if I want it to be part of the system?
In particular, if I want to distribute it as an RPM?
If I am not mistaken, for RHEL 6, the syntax files go under
/usr/share/vim/vim72/syntax/
and the filetype one is
/usr/share/vim/vim72/filetype.vim
Is that correct?
Is it always that PATH for RHEL hosts?
Is not possible to have separate filetype.vim files, `a la`
/.../filetype.d/ or similar?
I am asking this because creating new files with RPM is easy, adding
content to existing ones can be a truly nightmare :)
====================================
Once again, thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers,
Jose
