ReStructuredText + vim = ?

A list of interesting GH repos:

Vim itself ships a rst.vim maintained by Marshall Ward marshall.ward@gmail.com (originally by Nikolai Weibull).

Vim's rst.vim doesn't highlight doctests. I want a highlighter that highlights doctests.

  • mrsipan/vim-rst has a rstDoctestBlock and highlights Python code inside
  • mitsuhiko/vim-rst has a rstDoctestBlock syntax region, no Python highlighting
  • vim-scripts/rest.vim doesn't highlight doctests (but I had a patched version that did)

This is super useful. Thank you for compiling this.

Thanks from me as well. Please do contact me if there's anything missing from vim's rst.vim syntax file. I'll have a look through the doctest highlighting.
