  • Thanks for your answer, it was useful. I updated my question with my .vimrc , which already had the filetype on directive in it (without the colon, but I think that's normal, isn'it?) putting the filetype.vim in my .vim folder did the trick! Now what if I want to add another coloration plugin? Should I add more things in this file? Or was this all for debugging purposes and are you going to give me a better solution?

  • I added a link to my .vim folder on github in my question, so now you can have a look at it. Commented Oct 2, 2011 at 10:18
  • To add new filetypes, just put the $filetype.vim file in your .vim/ftplugin/ directory, and then add another au! line to your .vim/filetype.vim file, between the augroup filetypedetect and augroup END lines. Commented Oct 2, 2011 at 13:05
  • I think it is the purpose of this file : github.com/greg0ire/dotvim/blob/master/bundle/handlebars/… The code you made me write in filetype.vim looks like a duplicate of it. What I would like is have this piece of code run. I think it is the purpose of the filetype plugin on directive, isn't it? Commented Oct 2, 2011 at 13:09
  • I actually meant this file : github.com/nono/vim-handlebars/blob/master/ftdetect/… Commented Oct 2, 2011 at 13:17
