Emacs syntax tables, which are different for different major modes) with two
exceptions: the symbol `_' is always part of a word and typical Vi non-word
symbols like `\\=`', `\\='', `:', `\"', `)', and `{' are excluded.
This behaves very close to `strict-vi', but also works well with non-ASCII
characters from various alphabets.

`extended' means Viper word constituents are symbols that are marked as being
parts of words OR symbols in Emacs syntax tables.
This is most appropriate for major modes intended for editing programs.

syntax tables.
