title: non-word characters vim
body: <p>I am attempting to use vim's regex engine to syntax highlight @ without any word characters adjacent to it, such as like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code> The @ matches
   The@does not match.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am either matching ALL @s or I am only ever matching @s with whitespace surrounding (Meaning those at the start of a line are not being matched.</p>
  
  <p>It seems like vim does NOT actually adhere to regex standards in a very strict way, which is frustrating when writing syntax files.</p>
