Mercury Syntax Highlighting Under Vim 6.0 1. Create a diretory `~/.vim': $ mkdir ~/.vim 2. Copy everything recursively from this directory into `~/.vim': $ cp -r . ~/.vim IMPORTANT: If you already have a file `~/.vim/after/filetype.vim' then you should copy the files from this directory one by one, except for `after/filetype.vim' which you should append to your own `~/.vim/after/filetype.vim'. 3. Ensure you have the following lines in your `~/.vimrc' file: filetype on filetype plugin on syntax enable 4. If you wish to change the colour scheme used by Vim's syntax highlighting, we suggest you put the necessary commands in `~/.vim/colors/mycolours.vim' and append the following to the above list of commands in your `~/.vimrc': colors mycolours 4. Vim will load `~/.vim/syntax/mercury.vim' and `~/.vim/ftplugin/mercury.vim' automatically when opening a .m or .moo file. The syntax file describes two options you may wish to alter from your `~/.vimrc' file. The ftplugin file defines a number of useful keyboard mappings you may wish to consider.
