Well, open Vim then, and do the following:

:e ~/.vimrc

If what you said above is true, you'll see an empty buffer, and maybe at
the bottom of the screen something like

".vimrc" [New File]

Type the following two lines into this file (no indent necessary):

runtime vimrc_example.vim
" add any user customizations here

then save it, quit (:wq) and restart Vim. You should then have syntax
coloring in any files you edit.


Best regards,
Tony.
