/usr/bin/vi (aka /bin/vi) supports syntax highlighting based on the file 
extension of the file being edited.  The files at 
/usr/share/vim/vim60/syntax/*.vim define the highlighting (vim60 may vary 
according to your version).

The very last line of my ~/.vimrc is 'syntax enable'.  This does the trick for 
me.  Color syntax highlighting based on file extension is great!
