That sounds like an excellent idea, and I'd be very grateful to have such a detector. As to keywords: most of my ConTeXt files start with \enableregime; you may want to add this to your list. Best Thomas On Feb 3, 2006, at 3:17 AM, Aditya Mahajan wrote:
I use (g)vim to edit both context and latex files. Unfortunately, both of them usually have *.tex extension. This mean that detecting filetype from extension is not possible, so one should look into the contents of the file to see if it a context file or not.
I am planning to submit a ftdetect for context to vim. Right now, I check if the first six lines of the file contain any of '\\start\|\\enablemode\|\\unprotect\|\\setvariables\|\\module\|\ \usemodule' and if so, set the filetype to context, otherwise it is set to tex (that loads latex plugins).
This works for my context writing style. I would like to know about other people's preference.
1. Do you write some keyword unique to context in the first few lines of the file. Should I also check the last few line lines.
2. Are there any other keywords that you will like to include.
3. Is it enough to check the first 6 line or should I check more. I do not want to check more lines as this will make the detection slower (by a few mili secs).
Thanks, Aditya
