I'm seeing a very odd& annoying highlighting anomaly.
In certain files (& on occasion all files) certain words will be
highlighted in only orange& grey. These words seem to be totally
arbitrary. For example, in, say, my .bashrc the words `usr`,
`dropbox`& `storage1` will suffer. Or some single characters like
on my PS1 entry just the `d` `u`& `h` but not the `t` or `w`.
This only happens on terminal vim on Linux& doesn't occur in gvim
on Linux or terminal vim/MacVim on OS X.
I suspect it may have something to do with Gnome Terminal (it
happens in xterm& terminator too). The problem disappears when vim
is started -u NONE. My vimrc is identical on all my machines
(Debian Linux& Mac OS X).
As a follow up to this I've discovered the odd highlighting only
occurs when passing an argument to Vim i.e `vim .bashrc`
If I start Vim& then edit the same file all is OK.
Well, I was thinking that perhaps your termtype database was incorrect,
but that should affect :e .bashrc, too.
So, what's the filetype?
vim .bashrc
:echo &ft
Do files other than shell script files appear odd?
Does
vim -u NONE .bashrc
:set nocp
:syn on
have odd highlighting?
