Now that I’m using PHP 5.5 I’m finding that my Vim syntax highlighting is a bit off. After some digging around I found a syntax file that was updated to PHP 5.5 RC1 but hasn’t been updated since. In true hacker fashion I went ahead and forked the project and updated it against PHP 5.5.7, added some modules and will be actively updating the syntax as I run into things that aren’t highlighting correctly (just noticed that finally
needs added) and attempting to keep it updated to the latest version of PHP that I’m using.
That all being said, if you’re looking for a PHP 5.5 syntax file for Vim please check out https://github.com/joshtronic/php.vim
Oh, and Happy New Year!!
