See this other mailing list thread for a similar query: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/vim_dev/3H9B5acDuzU/tZyupkDsyDcJ Vim itself doesn't seem to have any support for lilypond, if the command grep -Ri lilypond runtime on Mercurial tip can be trusted. You will have to look elsewhere. But I'm sure somebody here has a better answer. Best, -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
