There's the hints file created by flist.  See 
http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/src/index.html ;

to use it

flist -h *.c

which will create a "hints" file from the C source.  You'll need to 
source hints in.  It then will

trigger on   funcname(   and produce a message showing a prototype.

I know the 'K' thing. It only works if there is a man page. Also, you
need to go to normal mode from insert mode (C-O will help a little).
More over, I like it show any function declaration from my own header
files. I really want a file type plugin/script that does this.

Thank you for your responses.

Thanks, Malahal.

I think K command is the closest vim thing to what you ask:
It opens manpage for memset if your cursor is on 'memset('
and you press K.

:help K

I know it works in linux/unix/cygwin.l I'm not sure it works in
Windows, though.

Hello, as is Vim doesn't seem to support call-tips help. Frankly 
speaking I miss it too. You might want too look at :help 
CursorHold-example for some workaround. Or maybe there's script for 
doing something like this (doesn't seem to be hard to do).
