Hi, DragonKeeper,
Please write your replies under a short-relevant quote like I am doing.

OK. So something has gone wrong with registering the autocommand.
The snippet you had for 'filetype.vim' should be in ~/.vim/filetype.vim:
if exists("did_load_filetypes")
finish
endif
augroup filetypedetect
au! BufRead,BufNewFile *.nc setfiletype nesc
augroup END
You also need to have
:filetype on
:syntax enable
or something similar to that in your ~/.vimrc.
Make sure you have both those things, and then check that if you do
:au * *.nc
then indeed you do get two commands listed. Until that is sorted out, it
won't work.

You need to install it in ~/.vim/syntax/nesc.vim like it says. Note
'syntax' not 'plugin'. You may need to create that directory. That
explains why it works when Vim starts up (which is when it reads
plugins) but not for other files (when it detects filetypes and loads
syntax).
