Vim stuff
Friday, August 28th, 2009Vim is a nice editor, but I never liked the way it handles files. Thankfully I recently found a great script, which adds great quick browsing capabilities to Vim, called lusty-explorer.vim. Since 7, Vim has supported not just it’s own homegrown (and honestly fairly bastardized language) called VimScript, but also it has included bindindgs for popoular scripting languages such as Ruby and Python, so extending this script with some extra functionality was a great way to see how Vims extensibility works. And with lusty-explorer written in Ruby, this was a nice chance to learn these new aspects of Vim.
