I hope the author gives people the option of turning off syntax highlighting or to set a no colors option. Sometimes I find Vim annoying because it doesn't have a command line option for this; like Emacs does.
Vim does:
vim file -c ':syntax off'
I'll have to give that a try when I get home. Thanks.
