These are syntax highlighting files for the VIM editor. Included are:

* llvm.vim

  Syntax highlighting mode for LLVM assembly files. To use, COPY `llvm.vim' to
  ~/.vim/syntax and add this code to your ~/.vimrc :

  augroup filetype
    au! BufRead,BufNewFile *.ll     set filetype=llvm
    au! BufRead,BufNewFile *.llx    set filetype=llvm
  augroup END

* tablegen.vim

  Syntax highlighting mode for TableGen description files. To use, COPY
  `tablegen.vim' to ~/.vim/syntax and add this code to your ~/.vimrc :

  augroup filetype
    au! BufRead,BufNewFile *.td     set filetype=tablegen
  augroup END


IMPORTANT: Making symlinks from ~/.vim/syntax/... to the syntax files in your
LLVM source tree does not work, you DO need to copy the files directly.

However, if you do not already have a ~/.vim/syntax/ directory, simply
symlinking it to llvm/utils/vim will do the trick nicely, and you can stay
up-to-date with CVS.

Note: If you notice missing or incorrect syntax highlighting, please contact
<llvmbugs [at] cs.uiuc.edu>; if you wish to provide a patch to improve the
functionality, it will be most appreciated. Thank you.
