Hi
How to enable syntax highlighting in vim? I tried to put "syntax on" on
/etc/vimrc and on my "~/.vimrc" and does not work. I have the following
vim packages installed:
[root@newt set_new_machine]# yum list installed vim*
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Installed Packages
vim-common.i386 2:7.1.291-1.fc9
installed
vim-enhanced.i386 2:7.1.291-1.fc9
installed
vim-minimal.i386 2:7.1.291-1.fc9
installed
Does anyone know how to solve this?
Thanks
Marcelo

The problem is for serching/replacing, for instance:
:%s/something/anotherthing/gc
In the past, using /bin/vi, the cursor could be seen
on the current instance to be replaced.
Now, the cursor just disappears. It works with vim,
but it uses some nasty colors in this case. The advantage
of /bin/vi was that just a white cursor was on the word
to be replaced, and the user could just type 'y' or 'n'.
The funny thing is that for pure searches the cursor is there,
and typing 'n', makes it go to the next instance.
The behavior changed on F8. It used to work on F6, though.

I have this in my ~/.vimrc
:syn on (note the semicolon)
What semicolon? I had to say that. Do you mean
colon?
and it should work, also if you want the gui version of vim, do
$ yum install gvim

That behavior can be changed in your ksh configuration file.

In my default f9 installation vi is an alias for vim. Run: alias
and see.
Note that the alias is NOT set for the root user. "vi" as the root user
will run /bin/vi (which is vim-minimal). Regular vim is in
/usr/bin/vim.
This split is because you probably need vi (or some editor) when running
in single-user mode where /usr isn't mounted (and /usr/bin/vim isn't
available), and vim-minimal is roughly 1/3 the size of vim.

When you read the relevant lines in /e/tc/vimrc you see:

Which implies that your termminal has to be configured with colors
before syntax on will work.

On my F9, there's a /etc/profile.d/vim.sh that sets an alias so
that "vi" starts "vim".
