Hi Niklas,

thanks for your answer. The match ErrorMsg "[\x7f-\xff]" works but only on the 
current file (.vimrc) after I source it. If I check the other file (twig) it 
didn't highlight the non-ascii characters. I haven't tried your suggestion with 
the "after" folder yet because I would want that non-ascii characters to be 
highlighted in all files, not just for php syntax. Is it possible?
