Eric, For your formatting "issue" I would look into a simple markup language like markup or textile. This is what I recommend to everyone using Vim who are predominately using it as a writing tool. All of the formatting stays in one document and is run through a converter when you want to pass the information to another human being, be it an editor or whatever. _____________________ Braden Sawyer Douglass <http://www.about.me/bdouglass>whyhello.im/braden βTo avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.β β Elbert Hubbard via Tim Ferriss
