Upcase every keyword while editing
Hello! I am looking for a way to mimic a functionality I've seen in the editor ED4Win (http://www.softasitgets.com/). What I want to do is to automagically upcase every written word that is considered a keyword. I program in Progress 4GL and use the syntax file from the gvim standard distribution. Theoretically, in my understanding of the problem, I would need to write a function to check the word before the cursor against the keywords list and map this one to something. Usually, I leave the boundaries of a keyword by using either space, tab, :, ,, enter or .. So I would have to map this function to every of those keys in insert mode. This is not very elegant, but it would work. I'm not very good in (g)vim scripting and would like to have some help in writing this function or a pointer on where I could find a plugin performing this feat.

That is exactly why I wrote: SrchRplcHiGrp - Search and replace based on a syntax highlight group http://www.vim.org/script.php?script_id=848 Put your cursor on the word highlighted the colour that you want uppercased. :SRChooseHiGrp Or :SRChooseHiGrp! Visually select the range you want (or ggVG for whole file): :','SRHiGrp The defaults selected will uppercase the words. I wrote it mainly since I work with SQL and like the keywords uppercased. But you can do anything with Vim's regex to the matches. HTH, Dave
