Try (in vim, of course) :help split Helpful hint: for anything that "looks like a hyperlink", try putting you cursor in that word/phrase and keying Ctrl-] > > Super bonus question: Is there a way that I can google this sort of > info from some web-based super man page? I have not yet met a really well organized reference. I have a couple of books and a couple of quick reference cards, but they all lack easy ways to find things. I haven't looked, but if there is an all-on-one-page manual, maybe that would be good for searching within. Googling on vim manual online brings up as the first hit http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/ Have a look and report back what you find, please. :-) Regards, ..jim -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
