literate haskell syntax highlighting issues in vim (Re:[Haskell-cafe] OK, so this VIM thing -- how do I make it actually work?)

[Claus Reinke]

the following sequence seems to help (tested on ghc/compiler/stranal/StrictAnal.lhs):

:syn sync fromstart
:syn region texZone matchgroup=hsLineComment start="\\begin{code}" end="\\end{code}" 
contains=@haskellTop keepend matchgroup=NONE

i'll leave it to those who are actually using literate haskell to
check this and to have it included in lhaskell.vim if it is helpful.
