I'm using the plugin 'nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter', and I can enable syntax highlighting by using the command:

:TSEnable highlight

However, once I close n/vim it reverts back to disabled. I'm using a .vim file for my profile but can't seem to find out how to set it.

call plug#begin()

Plug 'fatih/vim-go'
Plug 'neoclide/coc.nvim', {'branch': 'master', 'do': 'yarn install --frozen-lockfile'} " Code completion++

What I found I could do was auto-run commands, not sure if that's a bit dirty though.

Inside my init.vim

autocmd VimEnter * TSEnable highlight

    Try it without the autocommand (that is, just TSEnable …). Depending on how your plugin manager loads plugins (or lets Vim load them), the autocommand might be required. But this is not « dirty ». It’s almost the same as :filetype on but with a user command.

  • Ok cool, just wasn't sure if it was a brute force method or if there was a config item I could set elsewhere. thanks!
