The task data files (pending.data and completed.data) as well as edits made
|
||||
via commands like "task 1 edit" can be color-highlighted if you happen to use
|
||||
VIM as your preferred text editor. For this to work, you need to first have
|
||||
syntax highlighting enabled when you use VIM. This happens to be the default
|
||||
for most VIM installations, but it is usually quite simple if that doesn't
|
||||
happen to be so in your case. Rather than repeat the excellent VIM
|
||||
documentation here, please see the appropriate VIM documentation itself.
|
||||
Generally this can be made seen by starting vim/gvim and issuing the following

command:

edits made via commands like "task 1 edit" can be color-highlighted if you

automatically in newer versions of VIM, but for now you have to do a little

bit of file shuffling.

Configuring VIM to Understand Task Data
|

|

Once you have VIM's syntax highlighting enabled and working with other file

||||
types properly, configuring it for use with task is simple. Just extract
|
||||
these files into your home directory so that you have:
|
||||
types properly, configuring it for use with task is simple. You simply need to
|
||||
copy some files that came with task into your home directory so that you have:
|
||||
|
||||
~/.vim/ftdetect/task.vim
|
||||
~/.vim/syntax/taskdata.vim
|
||||
~/.vim/syntax/taskedit.vim
|
||||
~/.vim/ftdetect/task.vim
|
||||
~/.vim/syntax/taskdata.vim
|
||||
~/.vim/syntax/taskedit.vim
|
||||
|
||||
The source of these files varies depending on how you installed task. If you
|
||||
installed task via a regular package (rpm or deb) you can find these files in
|
||||
/usr/share/doc/task-VERSION/scripts/vim/. If you built task yourself from the
|
||||
tarball (using the default configure options), these will be in
|
||||
/usr/local/share/doc/task-VERSION/scripts/vim/ instead. So you should be able
|
||||
to do one of the following:
|
||||
|
||||
cp -av /usr/share/doc/task-VERSION/scripts/vim/* ~/.vim/
|
||||
|
||||
or
|
||||
|
||||
cp -av /usr/local/share/doc/task-VERSION/scripts/vim/* ~/.vim/
|
||||
|
||||
You should then be ready to go.
