rst syntax file, completion

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The completion ^x^p doesn't work for words with some special characters like ä 
with rst syntax highlighting. It works fine with other syntax files but not 
with rst. Attached is an example document where the comletion will fail for the 
last word in the text.

I have tried to figure out where the problem could be, but I have no idea, I'm 
already happy to have tracked it down to the rst syntax file 
http://code.google.com/p/vim/source/browse/runtime/syntax/rst.vim.

Thanks

Problem is, the rst syntax file includes the lisp syntax file, which sets the 
'iskeyword' option to unwanted values. I think, the syntax script should reset 
those settings back.

As a workaround, create a file ~/.vim/after/syntax/rst.vim and put into it
:set isk&vim

Then the keyword completion should work again.

BTW, this issue should probably be forwarded to the maintainer of the rst file 
(which you can find in the top of the syntax file)

Your workaround works like a charm, thank you. I sent a mail to the maintainer.

It sounds more like syntax/lisp.vim should be fixed to not change 'iskeyword' 
to the value that it changes it to.

Also, you can exclude lisp from the languages that you want to have 
syntax/rst.vim support for code blocks.

I see. Well I also sent a mail to the lisp syntax file maintainer maybe he will 
fix it.

Here is a patch, that guards the 'rst' syntax file from a changed 'isk' option 
by sourcing other syntax files.
@Charles, you might want to review setting the 'isk' option in the lisp syntax 
file.
