# Vim and ikiwiki

## Syntax highlighting

ikiwiki-syntax is a vim syntax highlighting file for ikiwiki markdown files. It highlights directives and wikilinks. It only supports prefixed directives, i.e., [[!directive foo=bar baz]], not the old format with spaces.

The previous syntax definition for ikiwiki links is at ikiwiki.vim; however, it seems to not be maintained anymore, and it has some issues.

## Page creation and navigation

The ikiwiki-nav package is a vim plugin that enables you to do the following from inside vim:

- Jumping to the file corresponding to the wikilink under the cursor.
- Creating the file corresponding to the wikilink under the cursor (including directories if necessary.)
- Jumping to the previous/next wikilink in the current file.
- Autocomplete link names.
