Jim Hopp - you made my day! I am just getting started in the Gherkin, Sinatra, Capybara, Cucumber, Ruby world. And having vim being able to display syntax in colors is helpful! Thanks again!

The cucumber.vim plugin on its own works perfectly. It looks like the vimrc filetype and syntax commands listed here aren’t necessary. The cucumber.vim plugin on its own works perfectly.

I was able to get it to work by doing this: 1. Move ~/.vim/cucumber.vim to ~/.vim/syntax/gherkin.vim 2. Remove the "au!" line in ~/.vimrc Instructions above didn’t work for me (MaxOSX 10.6.6, vim 7.2.108).

I downloaded the tpope cucumber.vim from the following URL, using curl or wget: https://raw.github.com/tpope/vim-cucumber/master/syntax/cucumber.vim The http://github.com URL takes you to the vim-cucumber project page, whereas the https://raw.github.com URL is the link for the cucumber.vim file itself. Look inside your cucumber.vim after the download and make sure it looks like a vim file, and not like HTML. 2. I put the cucumber.vim file into ~/.vim/syntax not ~/.vim (and made the corresponding change to the path in .vimrc given above). Petri: Not sure if this will work better for you, but:

Custom highlighting in VIM based on the file type. I didnt know you could do that. I should look for some of these to make viewing XML files easier to read. That is a really neat feaature.
