Me too ;) Currently i write my masterthesis with vim + latex. I don`t use any plugin just pure vim. With a small Makefile i am able to build the document out of vim. Git over svn is used for a backup/revision control. I first tried kile, but i didn`t like the spellchecking. Than i took a closer look to emacs. But i'm not getting into this monster. It starts with the config-file. The lisp-language is killing me. And nearly every key-kombination don`t work on the first try because i release the meta-key to early or to late. So i stuck with vim. I'm not a power user but nearly every day i learn a knew nice small feature to do my work faster. Greetings , Christoph -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
