Maybe, it's stupid question but I've just installed CentOS5 and when I'm

Check if your vi/vim has syntax highlighting enabled:
vi --version | fgrep syntax
If -syntax is on the line, you don't have syntax highlighting
compiled in.
- Did you install vim-enhanced, and does the command "vi" use it?
- Try "vim" instead.
- If you didn't install vim-enhanced, I suggest getting the vim
source, preferably applying the patches, and compiling it yourself:
1. ftp anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx (use your userid@hostname for
the password)
2. cd pub/vim/unix
3. binary
4. get vim-7.1.tar.bz2
5. quit
6. (pick a suitable directory to have vim71 under), and bunzip2
vim-7.1.tar.bz2
7. tar -xf vim-7.1.tar
8. cd vim71
9. configure --with-features=huge
10. make
11. go to superuser mode
12. cd src
13. make install
If +syntax is on the line, you do have syntax highlighting available.
- Does your .vimrc turn on "non-compatability"?
- Does your .vimrc have syntax highlighting enabled?
As a minimal .vimrc, I suggest having the following in your <.vimrc>:
set nocp
if version >= 600
filetype plugin indent on
endif
