dear all, syntax highlighting was working with everything except for docbook with vim under the current woody package. i'm not sure if it's vim or if it debian, but downloading vim 6.0 got the highlighting to work fine. the url to download vim 6.0 is at the end of the forwarded message. pete ----- Forwarded message from Morten Brix Pedersen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- Date: Sat, 22 Sep 2001 20:17:57 +0200 From: Morten Brix Pedersen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Peter Jay Salzman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: syntax highlighting not kicking in for docbook On Sat, Sep 22, 2001 at 11:01:04AM -0700, Peter Jay Salzman wrote: > begin: Morten Brix Pedersen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> quote > > Create a file with .sgml extension, and put this as the first line: > > <!DOCTYPE book PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DocBook V3.1//EN"> > > > > The format will set to docbk the next time you open it in vim. > > ok, i have the .sgml extension, and the first few lines are: [...] > the first line is the same as the one you listed, but unfortunately, nothing > is getting highlighted. :( Weird - I just tested it on a machine with vim 5.8, didn't work, but on my local vim 6.0aw it works perfect.
