To make a custom C++ syntax file, I suggest:
mkdir -p $HOME/.vim/syntax
cp $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/cpp.vim $HOME/.vim/syntax
and modify $HOME/.vim/syntax/cpp.vim to suit.
It depends on the complexity of what's being added. If it can stand on
its own, $HOME/.vim/after/syntax/cpp.vim would likely be better so
future updates to upstream's cpp.vim aren't lost.
Possibly -- but consider that syntax files are dependent on statement
ordering for priority. Consequently a line of syntax may work correctly
when placed properly in a syntax file but not work at all right when
placed at the end of the file, which essentially is what putting such
modifications into ...after/syntax is equivalent to doing.
