Solution to the VIM syntax highlighting does not work _linux

First, vim updates to the latest version yum -y install vim , and install Vim's enhanced version vim-enhanced to install support color componentsyum -y install vim-enhanced

Second, configure the Vim configuration file to vi   /etc/vimrc add a rowsyntax on

Or we could simply download a clean version of VIMRC.

Third, in order to make the VI command can also use Vim configuration, need to modify the vi /etc/bashrc  add line alias vi='vim'

At this point, the syntax highlighting can already be displayed through the above configuration.

If the cup has happened to you, after the above configuration or no syntax highlighting, then do not lose heart, you need to check from the following:

The first step is to check the $term variable

# echo $TERM   

If the output is not xterm-color , then you need to set it manually. Add a line to the end of the/etc/profile file export $TERM=xterm-color   and make the changes take effect # source /etc/profile

At this point, check again, if there is no syntax highlighting, then the second step

The second step, if you are using a remote login, such as SECURECRT, you need to set

Session options > Terminal > Emulation, select Xterm in the next menu, and hook ANSI color, and choose color scheme depending on your needs

At this point, the basic will appear syntax highlighting.
