Well, "strcpy" and "strcmp" aren't actually keywords in C, they are just function names that happen to be defined in the standard library. But in general, it's not difficult to change the colors of anything you want. You use the :syntax command (and its subcommands) to define keywords, syntax regions, etc., and the :highlight command to define the coloration of those syntactic constructs. The specifics of how to do this depend heavily on the details of what you're trying to do, so I'd just suggest you read the comprehensive documentation provided in `:help syntax.txt` and go from there. If you have any specific questions, I'm sure people on this list can give you more detailed advice. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
