=== Vim Syntax Highlighting ===
===============================
The files provided in this directory will enable syntax highlighting
for the lammps script syntax in vim. The simulation scripts have to
end on *.lmp or start with in.* (see mysyntax.vim).
By far not all commands are included
in the syntax file (lammps.vim). You can easily add new ones.
=To enable the highlighting (compatible with old versions of VIM):
============================
(0) Create a ~/.vimrc
You can have a look in /usr/share/vim/vim*/vimrc_example.vim
(1) Insert in ~/.vimrc
let mysyntaxfile = "~/.vim/mysyntax.vim"
just before
syntax on
(2) Create directory ~/.vim and place mysyntax.vim and lammps.vim there
=Here is an alternate method for VIM Version 7.2 and later:
===========================================================
(0) Create/edit ~/.vimrc to contain:
syntax on
(1) Create directories ~/.vim/syntax and ~/.vim/ftdetect
(2) Copy lammps.vim to ~/.vim/syntax/lammps.vim
(3) Copy filetype.vim to ~/.vim/ftdetect/lammps.vim

Distribution Packaging guidelines:
==================================
(0) Copy lammps.vim to ${VIMFILES}/syntax/lammps.vim
(1) Copy filetype.vim as ${VIMFILES}/ftdetect/lammps.vim
${VIMFILES} is typically /usr/share/vim/vimfiles
Consult your packaging guidlines for exact location.
