Re: Right click = toggle fold
I just wanted to share this little mapping I've come up with: :map RightMouse LeftMouseza I find using the keyboard more useful, so I use the space bar to toggle the opening/closing of the folds: :map space za So, it becomes 'j/k/c-f/c-b', space (expand), read, space (collapse), j/k some more...

Re: How to write a map for gcc?
I am a beginner user of vim and I use it to write my C/C++ code in Ubuntu. Every time I finished a C code and I want to compile it, I have to type: :gcc -o mycfile.out mycfile.c How can I map this command to a shortcut key like F12? See `:help :make` and `:help compiler-select` and `:help :map`
Re: Getting vimscripts
Is there a way to use wget or curl to get scripts off the Vim site? Use `wget http://www.vim.org/scripts/download_script.php?src_id=$id -O foo` ? Best, Swaroop
Re: Is it possible to do spelling check for comments only?
When programming, I have to turn the spelling check off. Or it will show a lot of spelling mistakes in the code. I'd like to apply spelling check for sentences within the comment blocks only. Is it possible to configure VIM to do this? See :help spell-syntax Best, Swaroop --- www.ion.co.in
Re: tips project
Ok everyone, the project's created: * http://code.google.com/p/vimtips/ I think there's a major disadvantage in using the code.google.com wiki - it only allows people who have been added to the project to edit the wiki via the web interface (please correct me if I'm wrong). At least if it allows editing by anyone with a google id, that would be reasonable enough for anyone to contribute and it'll avoid spam, but if only people added to the project can edit the wiki, it'll become a bottleneck and will discourage anyone who wants to contribute, I don't think many people will go through that much trouble (at least going by the number of 'anonymous' tip notes). Just my 2 cents, Swaroop
Re: tips project
Fantastic! I pasted this as-is into the wiki and here are the results: * http://code.google.com/p/vimtips/wiki/1504_External_commands_on_Windows We need to replace the code tags with triple braces as a start. Also, we may want to add bullet points to the metadata fields. Here's a reference to the wiki markup: * http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/WikiSyntax Please note that they don't use HTML markup. Instead, they use a markup language that seems to be a simplified mixture of MoinMoin and Mediawiki markup. Please see the latest version: http://www.swaroopch.info/files/200702/scrape_tip.py.txt http://www.swaroopch.info/files/200702/fetch_tips.py.txt Just run 'python fetch_tips.py 1504' and it'll all dump all the 1504 tips in text files in the Google Code wiki syntax :) Thanks, Swaroop

Re: question about auto indenting tab width
Hi Shawn, I think set shiftwidth=4 is what you're looking for.

Re: Help needed to : Start on the line where I left when I opened the file last time
Let say the file is good.text. I open the file and goto 66 line and come out by typing :wq in escape mode. Now, when I open it again, my cursor is placed in line 0. I want it to be placed in line 66. Can you please help me what configuration do I need to change to enable this feature. [I have tried Google search and could not get useful links]. Maybe http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/vim/message/77644 can help you. HTH, Swaroop

If you're the type of person who can write a script like this in 15 minutes, then by all means do so and send it to me. Otherwise, we can discuss it on the mailing list unless people think its too OT. So if you're interested in helping, start scraping vim.org/tips and let us know what works for you. I've thrown a quick script together, it's not perfect but it gets all the basic details such as the tip number, author, version and content : http://pastebin.com/886040 We could enhance it to fetch additional notes as well and then just loop it from 1 to 1504 I guess :) -- Swaroop
