I want to add a new filetype with extention .pn. For this I
had done following:
I went to vim installation directory i.e. vim73 and I edited
filetype.vim. I added following line
au BufNewFile,BufRead *.pn setf potion
in between augroup filetypedetect and augroup END
Am I doing any wrong?
What I recommend is to add a new filetype.vim in one of the
following places (shown as they would appear in Vim):
- Single-user on Windows
$HOME/vimfiles/filetype.vim
I actually prefer creating a file per filetype in
$HOME/vimfiles/ftdetect, as detailed at the beginning of :help
new-filetype
I agree that Ansuman should put his changes in one of the preferred
locations, but I sure can't see why they're not working for him
where they are.
Agreed.
My best guess is that filetype detection hasn't actually been enabled at
all.
Does issuing
:filetype
give any insight?
Another possibility is that there are two installations of Vim on the
machine. Does
:echo $VIMRUNTIME
give any insight?
Ben.
