cool-syntax-highlight.vim

A simple basic syntax highlighting plugin for the lenguage COOL (Classroom Object Oriented Language).

Installation

Making Vim recognize cool files

Since Cool is a small and not very popular language (because it is mostly used for educational purposes), it is very likely that Vim may not recognize Cool file types. So, we'll add them first.

#Adding ftdetect folder inside the .vim directory
mkdir -p ~/.vim/ftdetect/ 

#Adding .cl file type
cd ~/.vim/ftdetect/
echo "au BufRead,BufNewFile *.cl set filetype=cl" >> cool.vim

Add file type detection to the '.vimrc' file

set filetype

And now it's ready to install the plugin.

Plugin installation

For vim-plug add the next command to your '.vimrc' file

Plug 'EJ-PJ/cool-highlight-syntax.vim'

For other plugin managers it should be installed in the manner they require
