Re: [Vim-latex-devel] .tex files without \documentclass \begin{document} and \end{document} aren't recognised as latex sources

[Ricardo <rv...@gm...>]

Hi Mark,

I believe that this has to do with Vim and not with latex-suite. Whenever
Vim loads an empty .tex file it will set the filetype as plaintex. In your
case you want the filetype as latex or tex. To solve this simple add to your
.tex files the line "%&latex" without the quotes to the beggining of the
file. This will instruct Vim to treate the file as latex and load the
latex-suite. FYI, I'm using Vim 7.

The Vim command "help ft-tex-plugin" will give you a little more info. Also
try "help filetype".
