# What Is On The Runtime Path?
All of the plugins, syntax highlighting, language-specific indentation that
extend the default behavior of Vim are on the runtime path. If something
isn't on Vim's runtime path, then Vim won't know about and as a result will
not load it at _runtime_.
How do we see what is on the runtime path?
The `rtp` option is the shorthand for `runtimepath`. Calling `set` on either
of these will show us the list of runtime paths, or at least some of them.
```
:set rtp
```
This will generally be a truncated list if you have a lot of plugins. To be
sure you are seeing all of them, use `echo` instead.
```
:echo &rtp
```
See `:h rtp` for more details.
