-IMPORTANT: Making symlinks from ~/.vim/syntax/... to the syntax files in your
-LLVM source tree does not work, you DO need to copy the files directly.
+If you prefer, instead of making copies you can make symlinks from
+~/.vim/syntax/... to the syntax files in your LLVM source tree. Apparently

+work you may need to make actual copies of the files.
 
-However, if you do not already have a ~/.vim/syntax/ directory, simply
-symlinking it to llvm/utils/vim will do the trick nicely, and you can stay

+to symlink ~/.vim/syntax itself to llvm/utils/vim .
