Add vim syntax highlighting

Open gekkowrld opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

A trial to try and enable syntax highlighting for vim users

The following are highlighted:

  • Keywords
  • Types (most)
  • Operators (most)
  • Comments (better but not yet there)

Only the definition is done, the actual highlighting (colours) is done by vim itself. A good theme is also a good investment in this case.

This syntax highlighting MAY not work with neovim. No tests (opening and closing the files) were done. I currently don't have neovim so the burden falls to the future entity.

Vim needs to be told of the syntax highlighting to actually work. This can be done through:

au BufRead,BufBewFile *.nr set filetype=nuru

When the above line is inserted everything should work as expected.
