Hi Nick,

>From within vim, you can type

    :syntax on

But to enable syntax highlighting by default, you can (create or) edit
the .vimrc file in your home directory to contain the line

    syntax on

If you want to enable colors by default for all users, you can add the
same line to the system-wide vimrc file. On my Debian box, this file is
in /etc/vim, but SuSE may look for it somewhere else.

Take care, 

Matthew
