Re: bracket completion
One thing that would also be great, was if you were able to "tab" your way out of it, ie move to the outside of the bracket, once you're done. Now you need to either press right, to move ahead (which is not quite vim-ish), or hit escape and Shift_A, to resume editing. Only possible way I can think of, is to use a snippet system, like snippetsEmu[1] or something. Any other suggestions?

Using vim 7.0.201 on Gentoo, i have tried removing all other scripts and even my .vimrc and i still have the problem only when i load up yours. I looked through your script thinking i could possibly figure it out and I have no clue. After giving up on that I uploaded it to my OpenBSD box vim 7 something i'm to lazy to look for the patch level now. Same issue. Very weird, if you can't reproduce it i'm sure it's on my end. Just trying to find out what would cause it. Like i mentioned i go into insert mode type anything. If i try to use the directional keys while in insert mode i start getting letters inserted above the line i'm on. It is always the same letters though for each key. Left = D Right = C Up = A Down = B Each time i hit a direction a new letter appears above the (on it's own line each time, keeps adding to it.) So any ideas would be welcomed. If i avoid moving around in insert mode it really does work nice. So hope i'm not giving you the wrong impression. I just have been in the habit of being about to move around while in insert mode for years now.

This meaning up,down,left,right or h,j,k,l. Anytime i try to use these keys vim starts printing capital letters when i hit the keys instead of moving around. I have to leave insert mode to move around then go back into insert mode to type again. Any ideas about that? I can't reproduce this under vim 7.0.122 (debian), gVim 7.0 windows, on gVim 7.0.203 windows. Any ideas? I just played around with this. Using vim 7.0.201 on Gentoo, i have tried removing all other scripts and even my .vimrc and i still have the problem only when i load up yours. I looked through your script thinking i could possibly figure it out and I have no clue. After giving up on that I uploaded it to my OpenBSD box vim 7 something i'm to lazy to look for the patch level now. Same issue. Very weird, if you can't reproduce it i'm sure it's on my end. Just trying to find out what would cause it. Like i mentioned i go into insert mode type anything. If i try to use the directional keys while in insert mode i start getting letters inserted above the line i'm on. It is always the same letters though for each key. Left = D Right = C Up = A Down = B Each time i hit a direction a new letter appears above the (on it's own line each time, keeps adding to it.) So any ideas would be welcomed. If i avoid moving around in insert mode it really does work nice. So hope i'm not giving you the wrong impression. I just have been in the habit of being about to move around while in insert mode for years now. Sounds like a wrong termcap entry for the terminal you're on.

Well you seem to be right, I logged into console only not loading up xorg. When i use the arrow keys there it leaves insert mode and starts to move around just fine. When i go back into xorg and run xterm my keys are screwed up again. I tried exporting a few of the different termcap entries available for xterm on my system, xterm, xterm-color, xterm-xfree86. Had no luck with them. I then wondered if it was a problem with zsh since i had done some custom key mappings. Changed my shell to bash same. I'll have to play with some of the term settings you mentioned in vim later on. Have not figured it out just yet but at least you have me going down the right road now. Thanks.'

So i'm starting to wondering if it's really termcap if 3 linux boxes, openbsd, and freebsd are having the same problem. Although if i am in console with term set to linux it does go away. Hm. It may just be a badly set 'term' option (it ought to match $TERM), or a 'ttybuiltin' set to true instead or false, or vice-versa. This might mean a bad line (or even a missing line) in your vimc. You might also try using konsole where, if all else fails, you can set your "session type" to "Linux console", which ought to give you the same keyboard interface as in /dev/tty (the non-X text console). (konsole is the terminal application which comes with kde) Best regards, Tony. -- Syntactic sugar causes cancer of the semicolon. -- Epigrams in Programming, ACM SIGPLAN Sept. 1982

The easiest way to do language-specific customizations is to create .vim in your ~/.vim/after/ftplugin/ directory. This file is sourced after everything else so the settings in this file override previously set values. e.g. cat 'set expandtab' >> ~/.vim/after/ftplugin/python.vim ensures that spaces are inserted in your python files rather than tabs.
