Syntax highlighting and snippets for editing Stata files with vim/neovim.

• Syntax highlighting for .do and .ado scripts.
• Syntax highlighting for .dct dictionary files (used with infile).
• Syntax highlighting for SMCL (Stata help files).
• Snippets for use with UltiSnips.

This project is currently compatible with Stata 15. Several commands introduced in Stata 16 and 17 will not be highlighted correctly. I mostly use Stata 15 and I am unlikely to update this project to support later versions of Stata until I upgrade. Pull requests are welcome.

Include the following in your .vimrc (vim) or init.vim (neovim):

call plug#begin()
    Plug 'poliquin/stata-vim'
call plug#end()

Include the following in your .vimrc (vim) or init.vim (neovim):

call vundle#begin()
    Plugin 'poliquin/stata-vim'
call vundle#end()

Clone the repo to your bundles/ directory:

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/poliquin/stata-vim.git

• The main syntax file is mostly the work of Jeff Pitblado.
• The SMCL syntax file is entirely from Jeff Pitblado.
