How you tried how things work without the autocommands? I only have indent and tabstop settings and such in my .vimrc, and gvim recognizes perl with and without the .pl extension out-of-the-box (I would guess it uses the #! line for detection). I just tested with vim, and putting syntax on in my .vimrc made that work as well. -- Note that I use Debian version 3.0 Linux mus 2.4.17mvz5 #1 Sun Jun 2 15:16:44 CEST 2002 i686 unknown Matijs van Zuijlen ... designed to fill holes or cracks of not more than two cubic vims. -- Robert Sheckley, Untouched by Human Hands
