tex syntax highlighting error

[Stephen MᶜAteer]

TeX syntax highlighting is incorrect for:

$X_{\{i\}}$ for $k$ in $S$ some text!?!

There seems to be some confusion arising from the nested { } and \{ \} in the subscript. The highlighting is wrong from the i onward in this example. Highlighting is correct if the _ or the \{ \} pair is removed.

I have passed this on to the maintainer: Dr. Charles E. Campbell, Jr. <email address hidden>

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Stephen MᶜAteer (s-g-mcateer)]

This was fixed in the maintainer's latest syntax highlighting package, but his website seems to be down. http://drchip.0sites.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#vimlinks_syntax

I have attached a working tex.vim that fixes the issue.

I have been using this version for some time and it seems to be stable.
