Vim users can enable Magpie syntax highlighting using the files in this repository. Magpie syntax will be automatically highlighted for .magpie files.

Vim can be downloaded here. Vim is included with most UNIX-like systems, including MacOS.

Create the vim syntax configuration directories if they do not already exist:

mkdir -p ~/.vim/syntax
mkdir -p ~/.vim/ftdetect

Copy the syntax/magpie.vim and ftdetect/magpie.vim files to your ~/.vim configuration directory. For example, using wget:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Silectis/vim-magpie/master/syntax/magpie.vim -O ~/.vim/syntax/magpie.vim
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Silectis/vim-magpie/master/ftdetect/magpie.vim -O ~/.vim/ftdetect/magpie.vim

Syntax highlighting can now be enabled for .magpie files using the :syntax on command. Optionally, you can turn on vim syntax highlighting globally by adding the following line to your ~/.vimrc file:
