Code Syntax Highlighting in VI (Linux Editor)
I recently wrote about how to enable syntax highlighting in the linux editor NANO.
Below i will explain how to enable such features in VI, as they are built in it is much easier.
Move to your home directory and create/open the settings file:
cd
vi .vimrc
Enable syntax highlighting:
syntax on
Save using:
:wq!
You will now have syntax highlighting enabled when using vi/vim as your editor of choice.
