Mark,
Here's an alternate suggestion:
You may want to take a look at ":help template". It may be better to
have a file with the HTML header/skeleton elsewhere that you can read in
to your current buffer on demand. For example:
:read skeleton.htm
This way, you don't have to wrestle with :abbreviate - you can make
skeleton.htm as pretty as you wish (indents and all). Besides,
abbreviating "htm" may cause future problems everytime you do type "htm".
You could try a mapping instead:
nnoremap \htm :read skeleton.htm<CR>
With the mapping above, in Normal mode, type "\htm" and skeleton.htm
will be inserted into your text.
Hi All,
Gerald, not a bad alternative, indeed. Will look at it more deeply.
Great stuff!!. Cheers.
Mark Sargent.
