Thanks for fast response. I removed the last line (transient mark mode) from ~/.zile file without success. I also tried on my personal computer with debian jessy with the same result. I tried to get some basic syntax highlighting but can not prepare zile to read it's init file.

​Please can you explain what you expect to happen, and what happens instead?

Zile does not do syntax highlighting (where did you get the idea that it does?).​

I also don't have /usr/share/zile directory (as it is written in man page). I found dotzile.sample example at /usr/share/doc/zile.

​Thanks,​ that's a bug in the man page. 

Does it exists a little more thorough documentation about zile? I can't find it on web. 

​No. It's a strict subset of Emacs, so you can use Emacs documentation. You can see from the list of variables and functions what subset of features is supported by Zile.​
