As an aside, somewhere I picked up this little shorthand for this pair of commands: :put_ :put!_ which is kinda handy, given the number of times I reach for the command Tony uses, only to get bitten by using the wrong quotes (double-quotes, making for commented text, rather than single-quotes). Additionally, using the "!" to mean "before the given line" is another nice twist. -tim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
