Hi all.
Just upgraded from a VERY old copy of Cygwin (with a pre version 8 gvim) to a 
much newer version with vim 8.
I have a custom syntax recogniser for my primary language (VME SCL) which has 
been quite stable for the past however lomg it’s been.
Now however, the colours al go away after an extensive edit on a file (forex 
‘:%retab’)
The file opens normally with all indents, folds and colours in place.
After the edit through, the only colours in evidence are on the closed folds 
and the ‘fold depth’ marker column.
If i place the cursor on a term and do ‘\hlt’ it knows about the syntax item.
Has anyone seen this behaviour before? If so, any ideas on how to solve the 
problem?
Old system was an HP box running Windows XP (can’t go back to it., the company 
trashed it!) New system is a Fujitsu laptop running Windows 10.1.
Output of the ‘:version’ command appended below
Regards, Andy
