vim-x12

A very simple X12 EDI syntax highlighting plugin for Vim.

Reading X12 EDI documents give you headaches? Adding syntax highlighting makes a pretty big difference when you are trying to parse the contents of a one-thousand-line EDI 210.

This syntax plugin is incredibly simple, and built around the documents that I read on a regular basis in the transportation industry. It isn't perfect, but I have found that it helps make larger documents easier to read.

Example

Example EDI document

Highlighting features:

  • Emphasized segment identifiers (including special coloring for ISA and IEA segments).
  • Reduced visibility of segment and element delimiters.
  • Different colors for alphanumeric and numeric elements.
  • Broken highlighting for the first element delimiter after a segment identifier (issue #1) - please help!
