vim-css3-syntax

CSS3 syntax (and syntax defined in some foreign specifications) support for Vim’s built-in syntax/css.vim

COMPATIBILITY

This syntax files are compatible with the default runtime files that come with Vim 9.0 or higher. If you still use Vim 8.x or lower, you must:

Copy latest CSS syntax file to your ~/.vim/ directory (recommended)
Update runtime files
Use older version
Switch to vim80 branch

INSTALLATION

Vim package

$ mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/css3-syntax/start
$ cd ~/.vim/pack/css3-syntax/start
$ git clone https://github.com/hail2u/vim-css3-syntax.git

pathogen.vim

$ cd ~/.vim/bundle
$ git clone https://github.com/hail2u/vim-css3-syntax.git

Manual

Download vim-css3-syntax.tar.gz from GitHub, extract it, and copy the contents to your ~/.vim directory.

NOTES

Vendor Prefixes

I do not plan to support CSS3 properties (or functions) with vendor prefixes, such as -webkit- or -moz-, etc. These are hard to maintain because they are:

Added frequently
Changed unexpectedly
Removed silently

These must be supported by separate syntax plugins (Vim 7.4’s default CSS syntax file supports this). If you want to highlight prefixed properties or functions manually, :highlight and :match would help:

:highlight VendorPrefix guifg=#00ffff gui=bold
:match VendorPrefix /-\(moz\|webkit\|o\|ms\)-[a-zA-Z-]\+/

These commands highlight vendor prefixed properties and functions instantly with cyan and bold (on gVim).

Media Queries

I drop Media Queries Level 3 support in v0.12.0. There is no easy way to support Media Queries properly with after syntax plugin like this one, sorry. If you want to highlight Media Queries correctly, you must update Vim to 8.0+.
