source the following script:
function! Repeat(ch, width)
let result = ''
let i = 0
while i < a:width
let result = result . a:ch
let i = i + 1
endwhile
return result
endfunction
function! Pad(str, ch, width)
let w = a:width - strlen(a:str)
return a:str . Repeat(a:ch, w)
endfunction
nnoremap <F5> :call setline('.', Pad(getline('.'), '-', 50))<cr>
and use <F5> to fill the current line.
With VIM 7.0 (currently in beta stadium) you can delete the Repeat()
function and replace it with the builtin repeat() function (not the
difference in case).
Regards,
Jürgen
