When I create a new file with Vim, how can I change the permissions to
executable automatically.
At the moment I have to create the file, exit vim, and then chmod 744.
Here is what I use in my vimrc:
au BufWritePost *.sh :exe "silent !chmod a+x <afile>" | silent :w!
You need to change '*.sh' to '*' if you want to do this for all extensions.
This "au BufWritePost" line above is actually improved version over
my older vimtip http://www.vim.org/tips/tip.php?tip_id=709
But this vimtip has other related tricks that you might find useful.

P.S. Unfortunately, vimtips are uneditable as of now.
