Well, C++ and C syntaxes are different but similar.
Add a ~/.vim/filetype.vim if it doesn't exist (and if ~/.vim/ doesn't
exist, create it too). That file should have:
- near the top:
augroup filetypedetect
- near the bottom:
augroup END
- between these lines, one or more filetype-detection autocommands.
Yours will be
au BufRead,BufNewFile *.cu setf cpp
or
au BufRead,BufNewFile *.cu setf c
depending on whether you want to use C++ or C syntax (respectively) for
such files.
If you want to create a new syntax, which would build upon C the way C++
does but differently, that's more complicated; but you might have a look
at the $VIMRUNTIME/*/cpp.vim scripts for an example and maybe a source
of inspiration.
Best regards,
