Attention plain TeX users(1):
I have uploaded version 0.2 of my ftplugin for plain TeX (filetype
plaintex):
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1685
Features:
* Map " in Insert mode to produce either open or close quotes (`` or '').
* Map <C-B> and <C-T> to replace the Visual selection with
'{\bf Visual}' or '{\it Visual\/}'; from Normal mode, do the same with
the word under the cursor; from Insert mode, insert '{\bf }<++>' or
'{\it \/}<++>'.
* Map <C-J> to jump to and delete the next <++> marker. Works in Normal
and Insert modes, ending in Insert mode. If there is <+replacement
text+> between the markers, highlight it in Select mode rather than
deleting it.
* Put everything in a menu so that you do not have to RTFM.
* Call a compiler plugin (provided) so that you can run tex or pdftex
with :make and then use quickfix commands.
* All key mappings can be configured by the user.
Vapor Ware (planned for future releases)
* Make a command to start a viewer (xdvi, xpdf, kdvi, yap, etc.)
* Change configuration variables from the menu.
When and if I continue to improve this depends on your feedback!
Let me know what features you would like to see.

[1] I know there are some people out there who still use plain TeX (not
LaTeX etc.) because, without any announcement, version 0.1 was
downloaded more than two dozen times. ;)
