[vlc-devel] hacking VLC using vim

[Sam Hocevar]

   I'm using vim and I thought people might be interested in this
vlc.vim file I'm using to extend the syntax highlighting using VLC
types. It's also handy to detect tabs (which are forbidden in our
coding style) or trailing spaces. Put it anywhere you want and add
a line like this to your ~/.vimrc:

      exe "source ~/.vim/vlc.vim"

   Any enhancements welcome!
