slim syntax highlighting for vim.

If you are already using pathogen, you can skip to step 3.

1. Install pathogen (if you haven't already)

    mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle && \ curl -LSso ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim https://tpo.pe/pathogen.vim

2. Edit~/.vimrc to run pathogen as the first line of the file (if you haven't already)

   executepathogen#infect()syntaxonfiletypepluginindenton

3. Install slim-vim

    pushd ~/.vim/bundle; \ git clone git://github.com/slim-template/vim-slim.git; \ popd

1. Install Vundle into~/.vim/bundle/.

    mkdir -p ~/.vim/bundle; pushd ~/.vim/bundle; \    git clone https://github.com/gmarik/Vundle.vim.git ~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vim    popd

2. Configure your vimrc for Vundle. Here's a bare-minimum vimrc that enables vim-slim :

   setrtp+=~/.vim/bundle/Vundle.vimcallvundle#begin()Plugin'gmarik/Vundle.vim'Plugin'slim-template/vim-slim.git'callvundle#end()syntaxenablefiletypepluginindenton

If you're adding Vundle to a built-up vimrc, just make sure all these callsare in there and that they occur in this order.

3. Open vim and run:PluginInstall.

To update, open vim and run:PluginInstall! (notice the bang!)

We usesetfiletype upon autodetect, which does not overrides filetype once itwas set. That leads into an issue when filetype is set tohtml before we tookour chance (happens when slim file hasdoctype html header):

Vim'sfiletype.vim has anautocmd that tries to detecthtml files basedondoctype and this is triggeredbefore scripts inftdetect/*are sourced.

--#38 (comment)

To avoid that you have two options. Either usingdoctype 5 instead ofdoctype html or adding your own enforced version ofautocmd to your.vimrc:

autocmdBufNewFile,BufRead*.slimsetlocalfiletype=slim
