Try GetLatestVimScripts --
http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=642
(also at http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VimFuncs ; see
"getscript.tar.gz"). Set up a list of scripts you're interested in (an
example is included
with either of the two downloads) and type
:GLVS
whenever you want updates.
I have to laugh at how often questions get posted on the list of
the form "How can I do [horribly complex action that would be
pretty much impossible in any other editor]?" to which the reply
is "Oh, just download the [perform horribly complex action]
script from [Dr. Chip's site | vim.org] and it will not only do
[horribly complex action] but will also do [other tedious action]
and [other crazy-hard action]."
Is there a Notepad.exe mailing list? Why is it so hard to write
plugins for Notepad? ;)
Vim...what an editor! :)
