Hello,
I need your help to enable the syntax highlighting in Vim.
I want to develop some website with HTML, CSS, PHP, SQL, JavaScript, JQuery... But I don't know how to enable the syntax highlighting.
:syntax enable don't work and :source $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/syntax.vim don't work too.
The terminal return :
E319: Sorry, the command is not available in this version
E484: Can't open file /usr/share/vim/vim73/syntax/syntax.vim
My version on Vim is the 7.3.429.
Can you help me please ? Thanks a lot.
It works for me. i have added "syntax on" in ~/.vimrc (without quotes).
Did you apt-get install vim?
If yes, try apt-get install vim-gnome
Thanks for your answer.
I'm sorry but where is the file : ~/.vimrc ? And how can add syntax on in this file ?

~/ is your home directory. For example mine is /home/quiliro
Inside that directory is .vimrc
The period before the name shows it is a hidden file.

And how can add syntax on in this file ?
vi ~/.vimrc
did you get syntax highlighting working?
it is not necessary to create .vimrc file in your home dir & add the command to it.
When you tried the command directly from inside vim, it should have worked.
:syntax enable should not give error
Have you installed vim explicitly?
By default there is only a basic minimal vim installed which doesnt have syntax highlighting.
You should try this
sudo apt-get install vim
