VIM - Custom Syntax Highlighting
Get existing Syntax Highlighting
To get an exhaustive, color-coded list showing what patterns and keywords are mapped to what classes:
:syntax
<file vim syntax> syntax keyword cFunction abort syntax keyword cFunction abs syntax keyword cFunction acos syntax keyword cFunction acosh syntax keyword cFunction alarm … … highlight link cFunction Function </file vim>
NOTE:
- The top few lines designate certain keywords as belonging to the cFunction class.
- The line at the bottom links the cFunction class to the universal class Function.
Load the Syntax file
:so ~/.vim/syntax.vim
Keybinding to perform the load of the Syntax file
nmap + :so ~/.vim/syntax.vim<CR>
NOTE: Typing the plus key in normal mode in Vim, will load the custom syntax highlighting rules, based on what language is currently being using.
