Here is a couple more for tips between 1-300. I marked with "???" the cases where I did not quite like the original title but could not come up with sensible alternative either. Perhaps you guys could have some better ideas. 28 Add a line-number to every line without cat or awk alike utilities. 28 Number every line --> 28 Insert line numbers --> 28 Insert line numbers in your text # to show it is in contrary to 19 Display line numbers 35 For programmer: translate // style comment to /* */and vice vesa 35 Translate between single line comments and block comments --> 35 Translate between single line and block comments # simplify 81 Substitution of characters and lines in VIM is made far easier with the s and S commands 81 Substituting characters and lines --> 81 Substitute characters and lines easily --> 81 Substitute characters and lines quickly # to make it more tip-like 97 How do I add a current time string inside Vim? 97 Insert the current date or time --> 97 Insert current date or time # is 'the' necessary here? 104 Using vim to complement Perl's DBI::Shell 104 Use Perl DBI to send SQL query output to Vim --> 104 Capture SQL query output # is Perl DBI relevant here? could make it more general 106 Mail signature rotation: Supersimple one-line solution 106 Mail signature rotation --> 106 Make vim rotate signatures in your mails # ??? # to make it more tip-like 113 Translator in vim (Windows solution) 113 Translating under Windows --> 113 Make vim translate text for your --> 113 Integrate vim with dictionaries # 1. make it more tip like 2. remove "windows" from title -> could make it more general , translating is not system-specific term 118 Configuring gVim as Internet Explorer 'View Source' editor 118 Using gvim to View Source for Internet Explorer --> Use gvim to view page source in Internet Explorer --> Integrate with Internet Explorer --> Integrate with Internet Explorer's View Source function # make it more consistent with others 120 Compiling Java with Sun JDK (javac) within VIM 120 Compile Java with Sun JDK javac --> 120 Compile Java from within vim # Is "Sun JDK javac" the main point here? We dropped "jikes" in some other tip? 125 Auto commenting for " CLOSECURL " 125 Auto commenting code blocks --> 125 Comment your code blocks automatically --> 125 Auto-generate comments for your code --> 125 Generate comments in your code automatically # ??? The original title is not quite clear - it makes me think of plugins like NerdCommenter 139 Alignment: =, LaTeX tables, declarations, etc 139 Align text plugin --> 139 Align text easily # to make it more tip-like and general # OR we could make a category/namespace for plugins and then put stuff # like this there # btw, what's different between plugin and script? i see both names on wiki 149 Automatically update your diff upon writing. 149 Update the current diff --> 149 Update the diff view automatically # current diff is not quite clear 173 Switch between splits very fast (for multi-file editing) 173 Easy switch between splits --> 173 Switch between vim windows easily --> 173 Switch between vim window splits easily # I wonder if we should use vim specific terms (splits, quickfix) in #wiki. I think the intended audience (presumably newbies) don't know # these term otherwise they could read help instead. 178 Making a "derived" colorscheme without copy & paste 178 Make a colorscheme based on another --> 178 Create a color scheme basing on another one # ??? 189 Make Ctrl-Backspace delete previous word (like GTK inputs) 189 Make Ctrl-Backspace delete previous word --> 189 Map Ctrl-Backspace to delete previous word 193 Insert the current filename at cursor postion. 193 Insert the current filename --> 193 Insert current filename # is 'the' necessary? 200 Bouncing Parentheses (during insertion) 200 Bouncing parentheses during insertion # ??? 239 Scroll using arrow keys like browser: map shift-up and shift-down 239 Scroll using arrow keys like browser --> 239 Scroll using arrow keys like in a web browser --> 239 Scroll text like in a web browser 240 Hideall for Vim 240 Hide all functions --> 240 Hide all function bodies in your code --> 240 Hide all functions in your code # not to confuse with 'hide all VIM's functions' ;) # btw, you actually leave the function declarations visible in this tip so maybe 'hide bodies'? 244 Ask vim where an option was set. 244 See where an option was set --> 244 Show where given vim option was set --> 244 Show where an option was set # to make consistent with other titles 248 Auto-save the current buffer periodically. 248 Auto-save the current buffer periodically --> 248 Auto-save current buffer periodically --> 248 Use auto-save # hmm. does not 'autosave' imply 'current buffer' and 'periodically'? 257 Fast page up/down. 257 Fast page up/down --> 257 Page up/down quickly --> 257 Page up/down easily --> 257 Scroll your text quickly # to make it more tip-like 259 Removing the toolbar (icons) from gvim 259 Remove the toolbar from gvim --> 259 Hide toolbar # there are more tips like this 264 F5 Compile and Run, F8 Compile (ala Visual Studio) 264 F5 Compile and Run, F8 Compile --> 264 Use Visual Studio keybindings --> 264 Map function keys to compile and run your code # the original title is too detailed IMO 272 Automaticaly formating pasted text (p=` CLOSEBRACKET ) 272 Format pasted text --> 272 Format pasted text automatically # i think the tip's point is 'automating' the action 286 Recover after doing something... ugly. 286 Recover buffer after overwriting file from outside Vim --> 286 Recover overwritten file # simplify 290 Text Processing With Integrated Spell Checking 290 Text processing with integrated spell checking --> 290 Use vim as spell checker --> 290 Use integrated spell checking 291 ^P & auto filling of variables and text 291 Auto completion of variables and text --> 291 Auto complete variable names in your code # clearify the point of tip 294 Use Ctrl-S to save current or new files. 294 Use Ctrl-S to save current or new files --> 294 Map Ctrl-S to save current or new files --> 294 Map Ctrl-S to save files # make it consistent Regards, Santhalus _______________________________________________ Vim-l mailing list Vim-l@wikia.com http://lists.wikia.com/mailman/listinfo/vim-l
