Hi Steve, I got the attached email privately. I believe it is meant for you.
Best regards, Tony.

But it'd be much easier to make a deb as someone in Debian already maintains one: http://packages.qa.debian.org/c/cream.html The package description (from Ubuntu, but it's the same for Debian essentially): Package: cream Priority: optional Section: universe/editors Installed-Size: 2904 Maintainer: Christoph Haas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Architecture: all Version: 0.33.1-1 Depends: vim (>= 1:6.2), gvim | kvim, ucf Filename: pool/universe/c/cream/cream_0.33.1-1_all.deb Size: 844946 MD5sum: d848a0b33614f63eb838793924c8d96e Description: VIM macros that make the VIM easier to use for beginners Cream's motto is "Cream makes the powerful Vim text editor easy!". It brings a completely different look and feel to the VIM for those who are used to more intuitive editors while still preservering the more powerful features of VIM. It features pull-down menus, color themes, bookmarking, auto spellcheck and more. It leaves the default VIM untouched and is started by running 'cream'.

You might not even need to package it as he'll happily continue doing it along with whatever else he packages.signature.asc
