For a while now, we've been resisting having a wiki page for every plugin out there, as such information could easly become overwhelming or get out of date. We want searches on the wiki to show mostly tips about how to use Vim, how to write scripts, etc. We didn't want it to become a place to search for plugins. Perhaps it would be possible, if we create a new namespace for the plugin pages (I think this is possible). Searches would by default not include these pages, but a user could specify that they *wanted* to search the plugin namespace if desired. We'd need to set up a standard format, maybe with a "bug reports" table that includes the script version of the bug, and a very obvious "current version" note at the top of the tip. I've copied the mailing list for the wiki. John, what do you think? _______________________________________________ Vim-l mailing list Vim-l@wikia.com http://lists.wikia.com/mailman/listinfo/vim-l
