There's no easy way to get all options, afaik. All variables, though, isn't too tough: you can treat the scopes as a dictionary keyed by names of values in that scope. So, for example: for [var, val] in items(g:) echo "Global variable \"" . var . "\" is \"" . val "\"" " The type might change, so we unlet it before it's assigned again unlet val endfor > Is there a way to redirect the output from :let and :set?

Yes. :help :redir - but, again, probably not what you want to do. > Is there a way to call functions in the Vim code from VimL?

Oh, also what is this declaration structure: K&R style C. Vim's old. Back when ANSI C was still not so popular. ~Matt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
