This is too rough. I want a tool that can at least take consideration of copy and paste (e.g. 'yy' and 'p'). Or better, given a set of commonly used vim editing commands, to find the optimal number of keystrokes that are needed to achieve the final result. Essentially, I want to evaluate how much time it is need to edit a given file by a human being. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
