When a terminal application running inside the terminal emulator sets the cursor shape or blink status of the cursor, update the cursor in the parent terminal to match. This removes the "virtual cursor" that has been in use by the terminal emulator since the beginning. The original rationale for using the virtual cursor was to avoid having to support additional UI methods to change the cursor color for other (non-TUI) UIs, instead relying on the TermCursor and TermCursorNC highlight groups. The TermCursor highlight group is now used in the default 'guicursor' value, which has a new entry for Terminal mode. However, the TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported: since terminal windows now use the real cursor, when the window is not focused there is no cursor displayed in the window at all, so there is nothing to highlight. Users can still use the StatusLineTermNC highlight group to differentiate non-focused terminal windows. BREAKING CHANGE: The TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported.
This directory contains Vim scripts for syntax highlighting. These scripts are not for a language, but are used by Vim itself: syntax.vim Used for the ":syntax on" command. Uses synload.vim. manual.vim Used for the ":syntax manual" command. Uses synload.vim. synload.vim Contains autocommands to load a language file when a certain file name (extension) is used. And sets up the Syntax menu for the GUI. nosyntax.vim Used for the ":syntax off" command. Undo the loading of synload.vim. The "shared" directory contains generated files and what is used by more than one syntax. A few special files: 2html.vim Converts any highlighted file to HTML (GUI only). colortest.vim Check for color names and actual color on screen. hitest.vim View the current highlight settings. whitespace.vim View Tabs and Spaces. If you want to write a syntax file, read the docs at ":help usr_44.txt". If you make a new syntax file which would be useful for others, please send it to the vim-dev mailing list <vim-dev@vim.org>. Include instructions for detecting the file type for this language, by file name extension or by checking a few lines in the file. And please write the file in a portable way, see ":help 44.12". If you have remarks about an existing file, send them to the maintainer of that file. Only when you get no response send a message to the vim-dev mailing list: <vim-dev@vim.org>. If you are the maintainer of a syntax file and make improvements, send the new version to the vim-dev mailing list: <vim-dev@vim.org> For further info see ":help syntax" in Vim.
