Обсуждение: psql \e and syntax highlighting in vim
Hello, how to force vim to set sql syntax highlighting, without having to explicitly type ':set syntax=sql', every time when entering vim with \e metacomand from psql? Thanks Irek.

Thanks
Irek.
Have you tried to add "syntax on" to the main configuration file
(/etc/vim/vimrc) ?
Yes, it is on already, but this is global setting to highlight, if
particular syntax is set explicitly or recognized by vim. To my
understanding, it doesn't, at it is given a temporary file to work on,
like '/tmp/psql.edit.96672'. It probably might work if the tmp file was
named like '/tmp/psql.edit.96672.sql'. Or invoked with its -c"set
syntax=sql" command line switch. So, the whole question is how to have
psql to tell vim which particular syntax to use, in one of these ways.

OK, after real RTFM of man psql in this area:              Tip: psql searches the environment variables PSQL_EDITOR, EDI-              TOR, and VISUAL (in that order) for an editor to use. If all of              them are unset, vi is used on Unix systems, notepad.exe on Win-              dows systems. I found the solution by setting the PSQL_EDITOR to 'vim -c"set syntax=sql"'. It works now the way I want. Thanks

What usually happens to break is not the client itself, but my own memory which does not always remind me to click on "send as text only", while myself being too lazy to keep updating Tunderbird message formatting options depending on destination domains. Thank you for the tip.

Maybe someone should submit a feature request to the fine developers of Thunderbird for an option to send messages to mail lists as plain text. > Thank you for the tip.
