That because you use another Vim. I run vim from 'vim' package:

   $ cygcheck -c vim
   Cygwin Package Information
Package              Version        Status
vim                  7.3.254-1      OK

   $ which vim
/usr/bin/vim

   $ cygcheck -l vim
/etc/postinstall/vim.sh
/etc/preremove/vim.sh
/usr/bin/ex
/usr/bin/vi
/usr/bin/vim-nox.exe
/usr/bin/vimtutor

   $ cat /etc/postinstall/vim.sh.done
/usr/sbin/update-alternatives \
	--install /usr/bin/vim vim /usr/bin/vim-nox.exe 10 \
...

I try all your suggested command and they all fail.


Also I note that there are no any Cygwin specific vim.README
under /usr/share/doc/Cygwin nor under /usr/share/vim,
/usr/share/doc/vim  which is unusual situation for Cygwin package...

Search under:

   http://cygwin.com/cgi-bin2/package-grep.cgi?grep=vim

list only:

   gvim/gvim-7.2.245-1

which also does not contain $VIMRUNTIME/syntax/syntax.vim

Is it possible to get full featured Vim under Cygwin?

Or separate installation required?
