" Vim syntax file
" Language: XML
" Maintainer: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>
" Repository: https://github.com/chrisbra/vim-xml-ftplugin
" Previous Maintainer: Johannes Zellner <johannes@zellner.org>
" Author: Paul Siegmann <pauls@euronet.nl>
" Last Changed:	Nov 03, 2019
" Filenames:	*.xml
" Last Change:
" 20190923 - Fix xmlEndTag to match xmlTag (vim/vim#884)
" 20190924 - Fix xmlAttribute property (amadeus/vim-xml@d8ce1c946)
" 20191103 - Enable spell checking globally
" 20210428 - Improve syntax synchronizing

" CONFIGURATION:
"   syntax folding can be turned on by
"
"      let g:xml_syntax_folding = 1
"
"   before the syntax file gets loaded (e.g. in ~/.vimrc).
"   This might slow down syntax highlighting significantly,
"   especially for large files.
"
" CREDITS:
"   The original version was derived by Paul Siegmann from
"   Claudio Fleiner's html.vim.

"
"   2.3 Common Syntactic Constructs
"   [4]    NameChar    ::=    Letter | Digit | '.' | '-' | '_' | ':' | CombiningChar | Extender
"   [5]    Name        ::=    (Letter | '_' | ':') (NameChar)*
"
" NOTE:
"   1) empty tag delimiters "/>" inside attribute values (strings)
"      confuse syntax highlighting.
"   2) for large files, folding can be pretty slow, especially when
"      loading a file the first time and viewoptions contains 'folds'
"      so that folds of previous sessions are applied.
"      Don't use 'foldmethod=syntax' in this case.


" Quit when a syntax file was already loaded
