I have a desktop and newly configured laptop with different versions of vim.

The desktop has vim 6.4.6 which contains the lines in ~/.vimrc
set mouse=a
syntax on
They show in :help


The laptop has vim 7.0.35 and gives an error on the above two vimrc commands. Also they don't show in :help.

What has happened in vim 7? Are there replacements for syntax on and set mouse?


These commands are fine.  So, bring up your new vim and type:
 :version

What does that show?
