Are you talking about the highlighting or the autodection ?
The highlighting will work on either. Just source the bbmenu.vim
But I have yet to find a good way to autodect the file type and hence
higlight it. Any ideas ? I supose I could check the .blackboxrc and see
which menu file it points to and highlight if we are editing that file.
But this is far from ideal, there would be problems with included files.
perhaps we should should decide on an extension for all bbmenu files or
a comment on the first line like in bash. Then autodection can easily be done.
