OK, pretend I didn't mention mup source. The question is then can I use
system and user variables in vim … specifically, can I include the system date
in the text in such away that it updates when I open the file, and can I

Helpful reply from PRShah in the ubuntu forums:
using pling (!) in vim to spawn a shell probably runs a different shell from
bash (maybe sh?), so your .bashrc will not be processed. To make a global
change, consider putting your change in the /etc/environment file (create if
not present).

The Linux approach can encourage working with several applications to

Something odd going on here, and I don't understand: I thought I
remembered how to increment numbers, but it seems not :-{
Here's two lines from a file I'm working on
bar // 04
bar // 05
If I place the cursor on any digit and press just ctrl+A, I get the
expected results
bar // 04
Good - the upgrade seems to have solved the problem. Thanks for the

Using Gnome/ubuntu, I reported exactly the same behaviour to the
forums and learnt that's the way it is. So I've learnt to live with
checking the directory in the title-bar and using !cd before the first
save. Not vim's fault, either, because it happens with (some) other
programs too.
