I noticed that when I started editing files in the new version, the syntax highlighting was gone (!) no matter what I tried: On/Off for Highlighting (^T, H), Playing around with TERM values, and forcing syntax rules (^T, Y). It was when I suspected that something about the location of files were wrong: no matter what I fed in the syntax prompt, it always gave me the ' ' error... Some quick research showed me that the sources refer to something equivalent to "%JOERC%syntax/*.jsf" (where JOERC is the dir for system-wide joerc). Well that is not how the package is layed out, but is surely the root of the problem: when I ran ln -s /usr/share/joe/syntax /etc/joe/syntax ...all the magic colors were back :) So, am I crazy? Because this package is some months old by now, and I didnt found anyone complaining about this... Anyway, I hope I've helped more with the same problem, even if they are all hybernating :) ___________ Julio Costa -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
