How do I do I set the syntax highlighting in Vim 7 for python?
I would like to set my own colorschemes, and syntax highlighting for a type of code file.
The command to enable syntax highlighting in vim is :syntax on
, if you want it to be active everytime you launch vim, just add a line containing syntax on
in your .vimrc file.
If you're already editing a Python file and syntax highlighting wasn't on, after enabling syntax highlighting (as above) then: :set filetype=python
