Hi jaywee,
The simplest way is using a mapping
inoremap { {cr}escO
which should do what you want.
But I myself find this terrible annying because it always inserts those
closing braces.
That's why I've written some kind of context sensitive completion
either natively as (IIRC) kde applications do, or by means of an extensions
(as seveal other posts mention doing for Firefox). Other browsers (such as
IE IIRC) simply don't support any external editor.
Shouldn't be that hard to tell AutoHotkey to copy paste the text to vim
and back ..
So that the name is consistent everywhere. Makes it much easier to search. I
would appreciate this addition, too.
Example
function! Test(param)
echo a:param
endfunction
When you see param and want to know where it is used, all you have to do is
pressing * (using set hlsearch or a plugin
So maybe one could make vimscript search a variable foo as l:foo, a:foo,
(maybe also: w:foo, b:foo), s:foo, g:foo, and then throw an undefined
variable name error if none exists. Or so.
No. I don't want to go back to VB without using Option Explicit ;)
