+1 to Peter's answer, but Vim provides another solution as well. If you want to do something more complicated than a single setlocal, like setting up a whole bunch of options, commands, and mappings at once, then vim's filetype plugin feature comes to the rescue.

You can use the filetype: operator in Google Search to limit results to a specific file type or file extension. For example, filetype:rtf galway will search for RTF files and URLs ending in .rtf whose content contains the term "galway".

I am running Vim version 7.3.154 on Ubuntu Oneiric. I'm a newbie, and I
just set up a .vimrc file with the following commands: set nocompatible
set hlsearch
set incsearch
set number
set showmode
set syntax=ON
color elflordAll of the features I intended to set work like a charm, the problem is that
now every time I open a file in VIM, i get the following error:filetype unknown
Press ENTER or type command to continueIt does this with all files I've tried to open, (.cpp, .c++, .txt and the
.vimrc itself) It appears to me that the filetype.vim file should allow for
all these to be detected, but I don't know for sure what I am reading.
Funny thing is, the syntax highlighting still works even though the filetype
is supposedly unknown. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. --

I have no idea why syntax highlighting would work without filetype detection. Try putting "filetype indent plugin on" prior to "syntax on" in your .vimrc (without the quotes). If you don't want automatic indenting, just use "filetype plugin on". If you also don't want filetype-specific settings, just "filetype on".

I copied your commands to a new file, jollyjvimrc, and executed $ vim -u jollyjvimrc foo.cpp'filetype' wasn't being set at all and ":scriptnames" showed that
filetype.vim wasn't being sourced.HTH,

I tried adding:filetype indent plugin onand still got the same results. I started vim without the .vimrc and the error was gone, so I then tried
commenting different lines out in .vimrc. When I commented out the syntax
and filetype indent plugin commands, it works fine. No error, and all the
features requested in .vimrc work. Here's the odd part; syntax highlighting
still works!I see that vim has many individual syntax files. Could it be that that the
regular vimrc applies the proper syntax highlighting based on file name
extension if a color scheme is selected? There is code in that file that
looks to me like it might do that; but again, I don't know what I'm reading.--

Syntax highlighting does not depend on the color scheme. The colors
used by the syntax highlighting commands depend on the colors
defined by the color scheme, but the syntax highlighting or syntax
file type selection does not.Regards,

The Apache config file for my website is named mywebsite.com. Apparently the extension .com is causing vim to set the wrong file type as dcl which makes the syntax highlighting wrong as well. All of my other host config files are correctly identified as Apache files.

Other than renaming my host config file, is there a solution to this? Is there a way to make vim remember the filetype of this one particular file? Or better yet, is there a way to correct this wrong file type detection?

Note: I migrated this from an edit on my question to a proper answer. At the time I wrote it I didn't have enough rep to add an answer, but now I do. User @romainl brought up some valid reasons not to do it this way in the comment on my question above, but at the very least I think this is useful because it helps shed light on where those filetype associations are originate.

There are a few cases where the file extension isn't necessarily indicative of the file contents, and filetype needs to be set with a modeline. For example, Salt *.sls files can contain many different types of data, including YAML, Jinja2, or Python code, and I include a modeline at the bottom of those to set the correct filetype for syntax highlighting.

I would like to do something similar whenever a buffer of FileType python is written, but haven't been able to find an autocommand that matches on filetype. Is there one? Or is there some other approach that will get the effect I want?

Either of BufWritePost or BufWritePre is the event you need. Which one to choose depends on what that Flake8() function does: if it operates on the buffer, use BufWritePre, if it operates on a file, use BufWritePost.

If you want to keep the autocommand in your vimrc, you will need to change the pattern to * and add logic to the right-hand side because BufWritePre and BufWritePost don't know anything about filetypes:

This gives you an autocommand that will decide whether or not to call Flake8() whenever you write a buffer, any buffer. That works but what a mess! You have some logic that will be executed very often and for nothing.

When there's not enough information to decide otherwise, 'filetype' is set to the most basic -- plaintex. Your existing file must have had enough content for the detection to determine that it was actually LaTeX, so 'filetype' was set to tex.

I've recently upgraded to new version 2020.40, and I noticed that the Windows folder is not recognizing the Alteryx filetype and was asking which available apps should be used. I accidently selected Adobe which appears as Adobe filetype in a window folder. Although, I'm still able to just open the Alteryx tool and open the workflow from the folder. Any help is appreciated!

You can change this in your window settings. Go to your Default apps/default programs. Select to choose by file type. Scroll down until you find file extensions associated with Alteryx (.yxmd, .yxwz, .yxzp, .yxi etc.). If you click on the program icon to the right, you can choose what you want to set it to.

After upgrading my Xcode from 14.3 to 15.0, there is a compilation error "Unsupported mach-o filetype (only MH_OBJECT and MH_DYLIB can be linked) in libLLVM.dylib". There is no solution found anywhere (Google, Stackoverflow, This forum).

It looks everything is normal for that library. I suspected that some frameworks embedded in the project does not work on xcode 15 but the error messages do not have meaningful explanation on what happened behind the curtin.

so I solved my problem! the problem occurs if I use "gfortran" installed in my Mac updated with xcode 15 and Sonoma. I solved using gfortran-mp-13 command instead. I have several exec of gfortran installed, I think related to the gcc compiler versions that I installed. At the moment my options are gfortran, gfortran-mp-12 and gfortran-mp-13.

@eskimo I've run into a similar problem but I am unable to upgrade to a different version of gfortran as my package is not compatible with new compilers. I've also recently upgraded to sonoma so I am unable to downgrade the xcode command line tools. Is there anything else I can do to resolve this problem?dhcp-194-201:dusty samrose$ makegfortran-8 -O3 -lgomp -fopenmp -o dusty dusty.f90dusty.f90:503:22:

I was running into the same problems with gfortran in Ventura. Then I found a simple recommendation, that doesn't require installing anything, to change using gfortran from "Apple clang version 15.0.0) to using gfortran (GNU Fortran (GCC) 10.2.0). The PDF can be found at

By default, text file revisions are stored in reverse delta format.Newly-added text files larger than the limit imposed by thefiletype.maxtextsize configurable (by default, 10 MB) areassigned filetype text+C and stored in full. Filescompressed in the .zip format (including .jarfiles) are also automatically detected and assigned the typeubinary. Other binary revisions are stored in full, withcompression.

This tip is a tutorial on the use of the file filetype.vim which is used to determine the "type" of a file. For example, while editing example.py the command :set ft? should display filetype=python if :filetype indent plugin on has been used. The file type determines whether any plugins for scripts, indenting rules, or syntax highlighting are loaded. See file type plugins for an overview.

Between augroup filetypedetect and augroup END there will be one or more autocmd statements that may assign a filetype when the BufNewFile and BufRead events occur (that is, when a new file is created, or when an existing file is read).

The file filetype.vim is read from directories in the runtime path. The first match which executes :setf will set the filetype for the file Vim is creating or reading. If no rules execute :setf then additional filetype.vim files will be read.

On Windows systems, $HOME is set from the environment variable HOME, if defined; or is set by joining variables HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH, if they are defined. At command prompt (not in Vim), enter set H to display the environment variables that begin with 'H'.

I performed the eicar test where I attempt to download the Eicar virus testfile. The block page shows that the file eicar.com was blocked by filetype. However, the webfilter log shows that the website was blocked, but does not specify that it was due to a fileype being blocked. HTTPS decryption is working properly, but I noticed it was different this time:

This time the webfilter did not detect the eicar test site as a malware site but instead blocked the ".com" filetype from downloading and did not actually detect the eicar testfile as a virus. the other .ZIP files were blocked due to web category Malware, and not extracted and scanned by the antivirus.
