Using VIM

[Eric Torstenson]

Hey Lawrence,

I believe that the more recent installations have the syntax stuff set up
(if that is what you mean) On my redhat 7.1 machine, the vim syntax
directory is at /usr/share/vim/vim60z/syntax/ in which can be found numerous
files named *.vim (one of which is python.vim) Also, there should be a
script named filetype.vim that will set the filetype based on the last few
letters (extension) of the file

Also, make sure your rc file says "syntax on" some place.

Is this what you were looking for?
