I expect there are more plugins that use it on non-Windows systems. I think I have a couple installed that use it, but certainly the main one is http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1929 which I use from time to time to debug PHP. I first started using it about a year ago too. It's the sort of thing that can make a big difference to your coding experience, requires Python to be working, but doesn't need the latest Python version. And certainly the user doesn't want to be fiddling with any of the Python code or other Python-related problems (like me, may not even know any Python). They already have problems in their own code... Grins, Ben. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
