Re: Syntax highlighting not working in vim73

What should I try next? Thanks.

Back to basics I guess. On a machine I had vim 7.3.003-1 on and without any color configuration (or .vimrc or .vim), I edited my .bashrc file, which came up without syntax highlighting. Typing ":syntax on" turned on the syntax highlighting. If moving all your configuration files out of the way and trying the simple test above doesn't work, then please follow-up with the list using the problem reporting guidelines found here - <http://cygwin.com/problems.html>.
