I wrote a small ruby script that converts a wikia xml dump, which can be downloaded from http://wikistats.wikia.com/v/vi/vim/pages_current.xml.gz, to vim help format: https://github.com/tomtom/vimtips2help.rb Maybe that's of some help for you.

Yes, but those are different tips and having nothing in common with the tips, that are no managed at vim.wikia.com (well except the name) and are only a handful. regards, Christian -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.

Re: where can I download vimtips.txt
Yeah, I found it on my computer too, but I found it is not suitable for tip of the day. Any way, I would just use it now. I am still looking for a better one.

I found it, but it seems that is not suitable for tips of the day. 在 2012年5月7日星期一UTC+8上午10时52分13秒，Tony Mechelynck写道： > On 06/05/12 13:57, John Beckett wrote: > >> I added a plugin called totd.vim which will show me a tip a > >> day when launch vim, but I don't know where to download > >> vimtips.txt.

Re: where can I download vimtips.txt
Yeah, that is kind of old. Cause I want to learn vim day by day, there are so many vim commands, operations, settings so I can't learn them at one time. But I just can't find a good plugin or something to show me something at the first time I open vim in a day. 在 2012年5月6日星期日UTC+8下午7时57分05秒，JohnBeckett写道： > > I added a plugin called totd.vim which will show me a tip a > > day when launch vim, but I don't know where to download > > vimtips.txt.
