Halibut for Debian ------------------ In accordance with Debian's Vim policy, which requires that addons be switched off by default since there is a cost to loading each addon, the halibut package does not enable Vim syntax highlighting by default. To do so, install the vim-addon-manager package and run the following command as the user who wishes to use it: vim-addons install halibut Alternatively, you can symlink /usr/share/vim/addons/syntax/halibut.vim into the ~/.vim/syntax/ directory (create it if it doesn't exist). (Note that currently you need to use ':setf halibut' in Vim as well after opening the file; .but files are not automatically detected as being Halibut documentation.) -- Colin Watson Sat, 20 Feb 2010 01:22:26 +0000
