Hello:
How can set syntax highlighting for .profile on the mac os 10.7, as I
would for .bashrc or .bash_profile?
thanks

I use:

'au BufRead,BufNewFile {*.cfg,*.profile,*.log} set ft=syslog'

in my vimrc. syslog.vim is a syntax plugin available from the scripts
page on: <www.vim.org>
   Thanks for the replies. I have followed both suggestions, and
   neither worked, even as I could see ft change to syslog or bash.
   But I noted that from /etc/bashrc ft is set to 'sh' with syntax
   highlight operating, so :

   au BufRead,BufNewFile {*.cfg,*.profile,*.log} set ft=sh

   Gives me syntax highlighting
   Thanks again
   cheers
  syn on
should have enabled syntax highlighting for .profile (with ft == sh). Does this not work?

Since you indicated .bashrc, etc; I'm guessing that you're using bash for your .profile, so you should also put
  let g:is_bash= 1
into your .vimrc .
