Hello:

I tried your yas.vim and test.yas example; here's my comments:

* I got errors:
line 121, E481: No range allowed: ;highlight ...
line 123, E481: No range allowed: ;highlight ...

* why all the leading colons?

* so, I got rid of the offending semicolons and the leading colons.

* yasSpecial is a cluster. You're doing a contains=...,yasSpecial,
which is
treating yasSpecial like a syntax highlighting match or region. To
contain
clusters, use contains=...,@yasSpecial

I've taken the liberty of attaching a modified yas.vim file.

Chip Campbell
