Thanks,

---8<------
:; cat ~/.vim/vimrc
set encoding=utf-8
set term=xterm-color
syntax enable

autocmd Syntax * exec("set 
dict+=".$VIMRUNTIME."/syntax/".expand('<amatch>').".vim")
---8<------

and still no luck (tried from within *tmux* session and from pure bash 
shell).
Same version from Ubuntu 22.04 (I had to install it from PPA repo) shows 
test bash file properly.

So, it could be something on my machine.
The problem is I have no clue where to start.

Regards.
