Hi!
(I have vim 6.3.86 on a Linux machine.)
I have to edit some FORTRAN 77 files, which have a naming scheme like:
cmedt.edt.SOMENAME.f_#
where # is a number. I cannot change anything on this naming scheme. So,
I put an autocommand in my .vimrc:
au BufNewFile,BufRead,BufNew cmedt.edt.*.f_* set filetype=fortran
It works almost fine, but I have two problems:
1) The fortran dialekt is setted to f95. I could set this by an
autocommand as well:
au BufNewFile,BufRead,BufNew cmedt.edt.*.f_* let fortran_dialect="f77"
But would this be the correct way? And should this be done before or
after the autocommand from above?
2) Maybe this "problem" is correlated with 1) and its the thing which
annoys me much! In the files I like to edit, comments start with a
"C", but also with a "*". But one cannot see it in the syntax
highlightning. It looks like normal code. A comment starting with a
"!" would look OK. But it is not an option to change all comments to
comments starting with "!". So, what do I have to do, to get a
correct comment handling?
Best,
Dirk
