 Uh, Oh ... !
 I was using "joe" for my little c/c++ development in Linux. But I think I 
have to re-consider "vim" now !
 This "map" feature seems to be marvelous ! I am successfully experimenting 
with other small macro substitution, as well ! 

 Have to dig more in details, for vim features. If vim can compile  & 
execute c/c++ code also then it will be an iceing on the cake !

Well, setting-up some-thing is diff than using it. ;-) 

Secondly majority of Indian women wear Sarees, even if it seems to be a 
tedious job. Like-wise people conversent with Wordstar prefer joe. In short, 
convention & large user base might have made this diff btw "vim" & "emacs" . 

Only my little brain bit ! No flames expected. :-)

 On the dot !  Good contributions from Archan, Suresh etc Gurus !
 Also I got a .vimrc authored by [EMAIL PROTECTED], for C 
programming, and what I was searching for a long time.

Why you were in background for such a long time , on this thread ? :-) 

Thanks, really !

Please let me know, if you have any-thing ready for C/C++ syntax 
high-lighting - of your own creation !
If yes, can you send me copy of yr .muttrc file ? 

Regards & thanks to all!
