thanks everyone.  i've been using vim and sbt recently, and i really like
it.  it's lightweight, fast.  plus, ack, ctrl-t, nerdtre, etc. in vim do
all the good work.

but, as i'm not familiar with scala/spark api yet, i really wish to have
these two things in vim + sbt.

1.  code completion as in intellij (typing long method / class name in
scala/spark isn't that fun!)

2.  scala doc on the fly in the text editor (just so i don't have to switch
back and forth between the text editor and the scala doc)

did anyone have experience with adding these 2 things to vim?

thanks!
