Hello.
Thanks for :help options - didn't know that :) I'll try your Monte Carlo method. About .vimrc : I've got my own and wrote it long time ago (several functions, bunch of :set and :autocmd :)) 2009/2/7 Tony Mechelynck <[email protected]> > > On 07/02/09 05:14, naquad wrote: > > Hello. > > > > I've read > > > > :help > > usr_41.txt > > autocmd > > scripts > > variables > > functions > > debug-scripts > > > > but still I can't write anything smart :( > > are there any full size books/guides or sort of about programming vim? > > > > Regards, Daniel Fort. > > If you can't write anything smart, write someting dumb then.
