How can I have vi with syntax hilghting for root ? Regular users have it, but not root's.

I've seen the hidden files of a regular user home, but found nothing.

1. use vim instead of vi (vi is /bin/vi , which is usually a "tiny" vim

with few features) 2. put into /root/.vim : set nocp filetype plugin on syn on
