adl.vim syntax file
ADL dark blue colour scheme
filetype.vim mods file

Installation

Manual:

  • Add the adl.vim to the directory .../gvim_install_dir/syntax; 
  • Add the darkblue_adl.vim file to .../gvim_install_dir/colors
  • Update the file .../gvim_install_dir/filetype.vim with the lines you find in the filetype_mods.vim file.

Or

  • install in your ~/.vim directory

Otherwise

  • use something like pathogen to manage properly.

Description

The syntax file is still pretty rough, since going further requires mastering vimscript to a greater level than I have time for right now.

The general approach for improvements is probably to add matching rules for cADL and ODIN syntax, and then map these onto colour settings as desired.
