Turn syntax highlighting on/off in vim
Open file (for example file.c):
$ vi file.c
Now press ESC key, type : syntax on
:syntax on
To turn it back off, press ESC key, type : syntax off
:syntax off
You can edit ~/.vimrc file and add command syntax on to it so that next you will start vim with color syntax highlighting option
$ cd
$ vi .vimrc
Append the following line:
syntax on
Save and close the file.
