I have written at least 5 articles on vim. I think it is the world's best editor when it comes to syntax highlighting. All you have to do is: :sy on :TOhtml or :hardcopy > %.ps for taking a snapshot in html or PS which can be converted into PDF. For black background you have to :se background=dark You can retrieve text from MS DOC using various tools in UNIX. It doesn't always work but it does in many cases. -Girish _______________________________________________ ILUGC Mailing List: http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
