I suspect "#if 0" is treated as a special case because it is commonly used and is easy to parse. Using "#if 1" is not so common, and "#if MYOPTION" couldn't reasonably be parsed. This mailing list is for discussing the Vim Tips wiki (how to use it, what might be done to improve it). For example, soon I will be announcing that I intend to delete the tips proposed for deletion, and I'll give a weeks notice here to let people decide if they want to save a tip. On the following page you will find info about the mailing list for asking questions about Vim (you would get a more definitive answer there): http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Vim_Tips_Wiki:Community_Portal When using a mailing list, it's best to use a mail account that does NOT add a disclaimer. Your disclaimer is not particularly long, but sending a disclaimer to a list of 2000 people (the Vim list) is not desirable.
