I'm not sure how you got them loaded without requesting/sourcing them explicitly. > I don't find solace in "These are old toys which once worked but > then nobody paid attention to them" which I got from #vim. If they > don't wok then simply DO NOT include them in standard VIM package. They do work. They're simply fun little toys that demonstrate the flexibility of vimscript, but they're not intended to be loaded every time that you start vim. One might complain that the mappings should all be buffer-local mappings, which I'd agree with. Fortunately, that's a fairly easy fix of swapping all the "map" commands for "map <buffer>" to keep them from leaking out elsewhere. -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
