I've been working on some ports and vim plugins and came across the
notion that having syntax highlighting for FreeBSD ports files, e.g.
pkg-plist, might be useful. Firstly, I looked at vim.org and
freebsd-questions and in /usr/local/share/vim/vim* for any existing
material and didn't find anything.
My thoughts for filetype plugins for FreeBSD ports would be:
* Create syntax files for things like:
pkg-plist
pkg-descr
Makefile (when they're underneath a ports category)
rc.conf
sysctl.conf
loader.conf
* Write filetype plugins for ports
You could use portlint as the compiler
Quickfix could then help resolve problems
Vimplate could be used for templating
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1808
Tag completion could help with variables like SITE_PERL
* Write filetype plugin for rc.conf
This could utilize omni completion for what's in
/etc/default/rc.conf
...
I notice that other distributions have done similar things. Has anyone
done any work along these lines?
