Only mentioning that using Vim's syntax highlighting can make things
even more difficult because just managing to escape a reserved markup
character - for instance when writing a document that contains numerous
samples of Vim commands that happen to use said character(s) - is not
the answer when it clobbers Vim's syntax highlighting big time: $$C++$$
stands out in bright orange with my Vim color scheme, and that's
basically OK since it's only seven characters. But I've had cases where
using a comparable escape mechanism turned the remainder of a document
bright orange. This not only makes reading the source of the affected
part of the document unpleasant, but also obliterates the highlighting
that would have been there otherwise, including syntax errors that may
thus go unnoticed.

That's why, when all else fails, I suggested the above solution.

I certainly do not envy the maintainer (Stuart?) of the asciidoc.vim
file.
