Well, there is almost no c++ specific stuff (cpp.vim is only 3KB in size,
including header and comments), and c.vim, as I can see, almost only
highlights keywords, comments, and literal and numeric constants. Compared
to other editors (even without c++ parsing, e.g. Atom) or vim highlighting
for other languages (e.g. Perl 6) this is rather minimalistic (although
maybe some prefer it in this way).

Albert.
