Hi Charles, I put the lines into cygwin's /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/after/syntax/ netrw.vim. In place of "hi link netrwCopyTgt Unique", I put hi netrwCopyTgt term=bold cterm=11 gui=bold guifg=yellow When I editted a directory path and netrw is invoked, I pressed "a" to cycle through the hiding list modes until nothing was hidden. I got the error: Error detected while processing /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/after/syntax/netrw.vim: line 5: E492: Not an editor command: nextgroup=netrwList I then commented that line out. The effect of netrw's "mt" was to highlight the words "Copy/Move Tgt:" in the header. The target file itself was not highlighted. Is that what the commented line should have done? -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
