As others pointed out, it is easy enough to script VS2005 to launch gvim as a separate application. An alternative you may want to try is viemu: http://www.viemu.com/ (commercial, free 30-day trial). Only a basic (but growing) set of vim commands and mappings is supported. Yet it takes advantage of features that are only available in VS, and saves you from leaving the build and debug environment for editing. Give it a try, and contact the author to request the top few features that you miss (for me it's "gi", numeric and special registers, C-P & C-N). hth -Ivan -- http://ivan.vecerina.com/contact/?subject=NG_POST <- email contact form
