vim-colorful-go

vim-colorful-go is an addendum to vim-go's syntax highlighting. This plugin assumes you have vim-go installed and is untested outside that assumption.

Before	After

Features

Mostly, this plugin highlights non-native types when appropriate. It assumes formatting matches the output of gofmt.

vim-colorful-go also uses the same highlighting option flags as vim-go.

Some things that are now highlighted:

• types in type (...) blocks
• type declarations in structs
• types in function parameters
• types in function returns
• literal struct fields
• ..probably more I can't remember
