Better leave that decision to the package managers; I think most do try to offer as much as possible. For example, the Vim that comes with my Ubuntu installation supports all of Perl, Python, and Ruby. > [2 paragraphs deleted] > > Nobody said about number 4 argument.

Because of its strict cell layout (also in the GUI, see counter-argument 4 above), there's much less space for showing the completion information than a proportional, smaller-sized font would allow. I find the use of the preview window for additional information a very clever invention. -- regards, ingo -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
