I guess I'm not sure what this does.  I tried using it to edit the 
contents of some table cells, but it moves the right limit of the 
selected region when I use cw to change a word.  Also, it doesn't 
seem to allow reflowing of text (gq).  So it doesn't seem to allow 
anything I can't do with normal vim commands.  What am I missing?

Aside from that, I really like that you included a test for version.  
I have an NFS-mounted HOME directory and not all the computers I use 
have vim 7 installed yet.

One more thing:  since your script uses tabstops of 4, it would be 
nice if you included a modeline such at this,

    " vim: ts=4 sw=4

at the bottom of the script.

Gary
