Mohammed, What information is available within these events? Usually this is through some v: scoped variable or something like <a:file> and so on. I would expect the usual stuff like: v:register - Register currently being operated on v:operator - Current operator (i.e. "f" for cf) v:count - Count given for the command Right now, the YankRing plugin had to create expression maps for these and prompt the user for the remaining part of the command. It sounds like I could use this feature instead of some of those maps, if the required information is available. Thanks, Dave -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
