Re: vim/ctags problem: Java keywords not highlighted
- What are TERM and COLORTERM set to? I use rxvt and have TERM set to xterm-color and COLORTERM set to rxvt. I don't know what the appropriate values are for xterm. Setting TERM to rxvt (xterm-color wasn't recognized) and putting a syntax on .vimrc, together, provide coloring. Thanks. -Jonathan
vim/ctags problem: Java keywords not highlighted
One more thing that changed at the time of the upgrade... Vim no longer appears to have ctags functionality. I have tried downloading and reinstalling the ctags-exuberant package, and vim-rt and vim; the installation hasn't fixed this. Before I upgraded from hamm to slink, vim colored the keywords etc. when I was editing Java files; now, it's straight black on white. I'm using xterm to edit; ANSI color codes change the screen color just fine. I can't find anything that seems germane to this problem in the documentation for vim or ctags (man or /usr/doc). Suggestions for where I should look next in my troubleshooting? (I also decided to try another language, and wrote a Hello world! program in C. That didn't have anything highlighted, either.) -Jonathan

In an rxvt? Experiment and see if you can narrow it down to a vim problem, or an xterm problem, etc. FWIW color hilighting is working fine for me. -- Ian Peters The farther you go, the less you know.
