From iskeyword's doc I read that its default on Linux is @,48-57,_,192-255.

However, when I open a *.tex file, echo &iskeyword gives @,48-57,_,192-255,:.

Where in the startup of Vim is that : appended to the default for TeX files?

And is there a rational as to why? I've just found annoying what happened when I pressed * while with the cursor on a word in prose immediately followed by :.

  • @ChristianBrabandt, I'd say that's the answer.

  • I don't have the same behavior. Have your tried with a bare version of Vim? Commented Dec 15, 2022 at 17:15

    @VivianDeSmedt, indeed, the command Crhistian Brabandt suggested showed that vimtex is changing the option.

    I believe this is for supporting LaTeX's expl3 syntax, but I feel it's more annoying than useful most of the time.

You can check what plugin or script is changing the value by using the following command:

:verbose set isk?
