First, don't knock yourself out. First, checkout :help latex-suite Then, while editing a TeX file, type: (( You should find that suddenly a \left( \right)<++> appears and your cursor is in between the two of them. Type something and then hit Cntrl+J. Now your cursor has jumped to the <++> had has removed it. Similarly, try typing: [[ again, Cntrl+J to jump to the <++> placeholder. These are IMAP mappings. You can build more of them yourself, but the latex-suite includes lots of them. Within the mapping, things surrounded by <+ and +> serve as placeholders. So you can build templates with fields in them like <+name+>, <+date+>, etc., and then when you hit CNTRL+J, Vim will take you to the next field that needs to be filled in. --Ted -- Ted Pavlic <t...@tedpavlic.com> Please visit my ALS association page: http://web.alsa.org/goto/tedpavlic My family appreciates your support in the fight to defeat ALS. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
