Hello, Is it just me, or does the LaTeX syntax file seem a little insane? If I am editing a 500 line file and typing quickly, all 2GHz of my processor seems to be required to keep up. I type pretty fast, but this seems kind of ridiculous. In comparison, editing a 500 line vim script file seems to use a negligible amount of the processor. I have already changed the settings > :syntax sync maxlines=100 :syntax sync minlines=20 And still, there is no discernible improvement. A few questions: 1. Do other people notice the same behavior? 2. Does anyone know of an alternate syntax file for LaTeX? I have developed a strong distaste for the one that comes with the distribution (I actually disliked it even before I realized the horrible processing cost). Many thanks in advance. -WES -- ============================= Update: I had added some keywords in after/syntax/tex.vim. After removing them, performance was somewhat improved, but typing still takes 60% of a 2GHz processor. I am tempted to start my own simplified syntax file, but I wanted to first check and see if anyone knew of existing alternatives. Thanks. -WES -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
