Still looking for help on this, Ryan. It occurred to me that the path
setting in the two .vimrcs, for MacVim and for iVim, might be the problem.
On checking I see that my vimwiki settings are identical in both .vimrcs.
I don't remember why I specified the setting the way I did--it was done
quite a while ago and I'm just coming back to Vim after several years
absence--or where the suggestion of that specification came from--I am a
relative Vim novice, heavily dependent on suggestions from more competent
users. Here is the part of my .vimrc for vimwiki:
" ---------------------------------------------- vimwiki
"restrict vimwiki operation to only those paths listed in g:vimwiki_list.
let g:vimwiki_global_ext = 0
"set vimwiki syntax to markdown
let g:vimwiki_list = [{'path': '~/vimwiki/', 'syntax': 'markdown'}]
"add wiki as an extent recognized as a markdown file
autocmd BufRead,BufNewFile *.wiki :set ft=markdown
"enable vimwiki folding
let g:vimwiki_folding=1
"convert vimwiki headers to markdown headers
" symmetric: '== title ==' --> asymmetric '## title' for any level of header
nnoremap <Leader>be
:%s@^\(\s*\)\(=\+\)\s\+\(.*\)\s\+\2\%(\s*\)$@\=submatch(1).
" ----------------------------------------------
Though the path setting is the same in both .vimrcs, it may be that it is
the setting that's causing the problem. I wonder if (1) anyone could
explain what the specification I have does (2) judge whether it is what's
causing highlighting not to work, (3) suggest parameters of an alternative
specification giving that my vimwiki file are in a Dropbox folder.
Thanks,
Eric Weir
