Tracing the startup process, reading a MD file ("gvim -V readme.md") I noticed that two HTML files were sourced: my own one in %VIM\.vim\syntax, plus the original (unchanged) one in %VIM\syntax (rtp only contains the stems of these two paths). This is due to the "runtime!" (mind the exclamation mark) command in markdown.vim. Removing the "!" avoids the "error", so my posted suggestion was wrong. In fact, the error is a result of other files, e.g. vb.vim, css.vim, js.vim also being sourced by the original html.vim file (which btw. uses "syntax include" commands to source its dependent files).
Therefore, the question stands: does it make any sense to use "runtime!" (instead of "syntax include") here, given the possibility that s.o. (like me) completely rewrites a bunch of syntax files (in his own, private path)? Is this common practice (which would implicate that I also would have to rewrite any other syntax file that possibly sources "my" files? -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
