Actually, not. The thing that would enable automatic syntax highlighting
would be that. Edit a file called ".vimrc" that should be in your home
directory (/home/user):

vi /home/user/.vimrc

It should have:
syntax on

Then save and quit. After that, vim will try to enable syntax highlighting
for every file you open. If it has syntax files for go, it would recognize
and highlight it automatically.

Note: vim is a very powerful and able text editor. I'd recommend some place
like http://www.vim.org to get acquainted to it. And it is very fit for
small keyboards like the N900 keyboard because it does not use many Ctrl-
and Alt- combinations.
