Vim syntax colouring for gcov not working as inteded -


i'm new vim, , little puzzled.

i'm using gcov (through clang), , installed .gcov vim syntax file here placing in vim syntax folder - highlighting doesn't appear.

what missing? thanks!

you need these 2 lines in ~/.vimrc syntax highlighting work properly:

filetype on syntax on 

because it's people want, should use:

filetype plugin indent on syntax on 

the first line ensures vim recognizes filetype, loads filetype-specific options/mappings/autocmds , applies filetype's built-in indent rules.

the second line activates synatx highlighting.
