Coming Home to Vim
One of the things I love about Vim is that every time I read though a post like this or look at someone's .vimrc I learn something new about what it can do or get another insight about how its features can make my life easier.<p>My (semi-commented) .vimrc is on GitHub if anyone wants another example: <a href="http://github.com/samdk/vimconf/blob/master/dotvimrc" rel="nofollow">http://github.com/samdk/vimconf/blob/master/dotvimrc</a><p>I've also found StackOverflow's list of most-voted questions tagged <i>vim</i> to be a very useful source of little tidbits: <a href="http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/vim?sort=votes&pagesize=15" rel="nofollow">http://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/vim?sort=votes&...</a><p>And there've been several HN .vimrc posts that I also found very useful. This is one of the best: <a href="http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=856051" rel="nofollow">http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=856051</a><p>This is another excellently commented and extensive .vimrc that (I think) is mentioned in one of the above links, but deserves its own specific mention here:  <a href="http://www.vi-improved.org/vimrc.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.vi-improved.org/vimrc.php</a><p>And this is another I found completely by accident a while ago that includes some excellent examples of vimscript macros: <a href="http://fingelrest.silent-blade.org/uploads/Main/vimrc.html" rel="nofollow">http://fingelrest.silent-blade.org/uploads/Main/vimrc.html</a>
