I'm confused, your subject talks about printing from Vim in color, but the stack overflow post talks about syntax folding not working anymore after installing rainbow parentheses plugins. To me this sounds like a plugin problem integrating with C++ syntax regions. This *might* be fixable by modifying the plugin to use folding just like the C/C++ syntax file, or modifying the plugin to better account for C/C++ syntax rules, I'd suggest one of these two methods first (or get the plugin maintainer to do it for you). You can also try hacking the C/C++ syntax file but then it becomes a problem of maintaining your custom additions whenever a new version of the official file comes out. Is there some printing question hidden here that I'm missing? -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
