Description of problem: Vim syntax highlight currently handles colons as special characters inside literal and folded blocks and shows them as new key value definition. The ':' inside a literal or a folded block should be treated as a regular character. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): vim-common-8.2.109-1.fc31.x86_64 Steps to Reproduce: $ cat example.yaml description: | Multiline blocks using the literal (|) or folded (>) style can contain colons: Text before them should not be highlighted. Actual results: String 'contain colons' highlighted. Expected results: String 'contain colons' in regular color. Additional info: https://yaml-multiline.info/
Hi Petr, I was able to reproduce the issue on my Fedora 30 (8.2.019). The yaml.vim maintainer is Nikolai Pavlov, I'll send him email about the issue.
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 32 development cycle. Changing version to 32.
Has there been any update from Nikolai?
Unfortunately I haven't got any update from Nikolai yet - I'll file the issue on upstream.
Has there been any update from upstream?
Hi Petr, I'm sorry I didn't file the issue on upstream at the time - but here it is now https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/vim_dev/lmRynxHb95w . I would say it is not a critical issue, so I'm closing the issue as UPSTREAM.
