Hi All! Loving ledger and the vim plugin. Unfortunately, I can't seem to get the modeline to work as it should.
I have a file "journal.txt". I don't want to override the default ".txt" extension behaviour (or change the journal file extension). Hence, the modeline seems to be the best way to go to have vim recognise the ledger file. So, I placed a line at the very top of my journal.txt file: ; vim: filetype=ledger But unfortunately this doesn't work. Opening the file with vim has no syntax highlighting (and the filetype is still "text"). When in the file I can enter the command "set filetype=ledger" and the highlighting works (the filetype is correct). I had expected that having the above modeline as the first line of my file would have it automatically recognise the type properly. Looking at "help: modeline" seemed to indicate that the above modeline should work (based on my understanding)... Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
