you say this with sarcasm. but i think there's some truth to it. hard-coded Values are ones you don't need to think about. my first reaction to russ' note was that vim hasn't so much provided an editor, but an editor development platform for people who don't want to start from scratch. you wouldn't put up with a car that had 1000 options that needed configuring before you could comfortably go down the road. why put up with it in software? if you still really want it just the way you want it, write your own. fidding options doesn't count among the Holy Code, as you likely want the one feature they don't have. - erik
