I added a plugin called totd.vim which will show me a tip a

vimtips.txt. I went to Vim Tips Wiki but still can't find
where to download it, any one knows. Many thanks!
I guess that is a very old plugin (last updated July 2006):
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=88
At that time, the tips were on vim.org, and there was a download
of a zip file with the body of each tip (no comments). Nothing
like that is available now.
While a nice idea, the tips are not in a suitable state (too
much obsolete or misguided advice) to be used for a "tip of the
day". What could be done, is that someone might manually work
out which tips are in a reasonable condition, and make a file
with the tip contents. I would far prefer that work went into
cleaning up the tips!

There is a tips.txt among the help files distributed with Vim (on my
system, /usr/local/share/vim/vim73/doc/tips.txt for Vim 7.3, last
changed 2009 Nov 07). These tips are separated by a line of equal signs
and are meant to be displayed in a Vim help window.
Best regards,
Tony.
