Hi, I would like to propose that a commenting plugin be shipped with Vim by default. Having tried a few of these, I have found the NERD Commenter plugin to be the most extensive and widely used, supporting a horde of programming languages. So far I have only had positive feedback about such an idea from the vim users that I have spoken to. Many other editors provide a competent commenting system by default, and this has been one of the most essential coding features that vim has been lacking.
Before someone mentions it, I don't consider using visual block mode and insertion as a viable option for 'commenting support' while coding. I have spoken to Bram about this, and he has said that he will be willing to ship it if there is no significant debate about which one to include and how it works, if it doesn't break anything, and is well documented. So essentially this thread might serve to highlight any potential concerns. Any thoughts? -- Francis Giannaros http://francis.giannaros.org -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
