I've developed a syntax file for the linux vim/gvim editors, and I've
uploaded it (as fds.vim) to the files section. If you're editing FDS
input files in vim/gvim (or even vi, in most linux implementations),
this syntax file can help you by highlighting recognized FDS input
parameters, enabling you to better recognize typos in your input
files.

Windows users, don't despair. Vim and gvim are available for the
Windows platforms from www.vim.org. The learning curve is a bit
steep, but it's a useful editor. Emacs users are left out in the
cold, sorry.

Instructions for installing and using vim syntax files are available
at http://www.vim.org/htmldoc/syntax.html.

Thanks, Boris.

If you or anybody else has suggestions or changes to request (e.g.
missing/broken keywords or weird behavior), please send them to my
gmail account. I'll periodically update the syntax file.
