Grab and install eruby.vim into ~/.vim/syntax. Then following this tip add:


au BufNewFile,BufRead *.rhtml set syn=eruby

to ~/.vimrc.

While you are at that, make sure you check out HowtoUseVimWithRails.

    True, maybe I should file a wishlist against vim-common:
    nic@rails:~$ dpkg -S /usr/share/vim/vim63/filetype.vim
    vim-common: /usr/share/vim/vim63/filetype.vim

    Update: Report filed.
