I'm trying to pipe messages from ex commands (e.g. :map , :version) into a new tab. I've found http://vim.sourceforge.net/tips/tip.php?tip_id=95, but I was hoping for a better way. Ideally I would type something like :tabmesages :map and it would show :map in a new tab, without printing it to the screen, without waiting for additional keypresses, and without using up registers.
Also with the Decho plugin: :Dredir map will then put the output of the map command into the new tab. Regards, Chip Campbell
