Tony had also suggested creating an empty ftplugin file. I did that, put it in ftplugin, restarted vim, but the syntax menu didn't get updated.
I'm thinking something manual has to be done, because i have other syntax files, that work, and have their files in the right place but the syntax menu does not show these either.

Still, looking at the synmenu.vim file, it doesn't look like that would have made any difference either. I think you will need to copy and then modify the file as Tony suggest. I see another file called makemenu.vim which apparently generates synmenu.vim, perhaps you can modify and use that instead of direct modification. You'll still want to work on a local copy instead of the distribution copy. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
