Hi, check out the various BufReadCmd autocommands. As an example, you may want to check the zipPlugin, that is distributed with vim and allows to browse the content of zip packages: https://github.com/vim/vim/blob/master/runtime/plugin/zipPlugin.vim and https://github.com/vim/vim/blob/master/runtime/autoload/zip.vim Best, Chris -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
