that looks interesting.  Done the vimball bit then I try to install
rainbow.vba (having gunzipped it);

vim rainbow.vba gives:
***vimball***  Source this file to extract it! (:so %)
Error detected while processing BufEnter Auto commands for "*.vba":
E119: Not enough arguments for function: vimball#ShowMesg
Press ENTER or type command to continue

So I try to extract it anyway:
Vimball Archive
extracted <after/syntax/c/rainbow.vim>: 100 lines
wrote /home/hgs/.vim/after/syntax/c/rainbow.vim

Press ENTER or type command to continue

So that means it only applies to C files out of the box?
I think it would be more useful it it were setup as a plugin
one could use for Perl, Ruby, (your later message covers lisp), etc
I don't consider myself fluent in vim internals, so maybe I've
missed something with this paragraph.

Your web page has:

I think that should be (written as if this were a patch):
-<br><li><a href="vbafiles/RunView.vba.gz">Rndm</a> <a name="RUNVIEW"></a> <!--

+<br><li><a href="vbafiles/RunView.vba.gz">RunView</a> <a name="RUNVIEW"></a>

        Thank you,
