I don't need vim to read .vimrc from URL at
startup. I can just map a key, like F12, to try to
download that file and update the one at my home
dir. Then I can just press F12 and restart vim
when I want a configuration update.

However, writing an external script to do that for
me can be easier, since I know nothing about vim
scripting...

  Thanks,
