Merge somewhere. I'm thinking of keeping the material in [[Best Tips]] (after cleaning it up), and have that as a place to put simple tips for newcomers. Or, maybe use [[Tutorial Commands]] for that. Perhaps put the "delete till" content from this new tip there. I don't see any reason to keep the proposed new tip title "Use t(till)..." because it's not something you would search for. --[[User:JohnBeckett|JohnBeckett]] 01:20, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

I agree. Merge to [[Tutorial Commands]], and also mention t's friends: f, F, T, ',', and ';'. --[[User:Fritzophrenic|Fritzophrenic]] 21:23, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Revision as of 07:59, 5 April 2009

New tips September 2008

For each proposed new tip:

  • Is it worth keeping as a separate tip?
  • Should it be merged into an existing tip? Which?
  • If it should be kept, is it ready for release? Which points need fixing? Should it be renamed?

Please edit this page (not the talk page) in the appropriate section below the following table.
Alternatively, comments can be posted on the mailing list.

Proposed new tip Current consensus
Automatic LaTeX compile and XDVI refresh -
Filetype.vim Keep
Paste that line Merged to VimTip979
Use t(till) to delete text in a line Merged to VimTip1581
Vim key bindings for Firefox Keep

Please add your comment (sign with ~~~~) below the appropriate heading. Use ---- between comments.

General comments (not for a specific tip)

Filetype.vim

This is not really a proposed new tip -- it's a new page intended to provide background on filetype handling. I'm not sure of the best way to handle it, but for consistency I've put TipNew with a dummy tip number at the top (I don't want the ugly TipProposed). It is very useful for those of us doing heavy maintenanace to have a simple tip number to refer to pages, and I don't want to spend the mental effort to worry about whether this page should or should not have a TipNew template.

So, please put your efforts into any required fixing of the page itself (add ideas to the comments section at the bottom of the tip). In a few months, it may be time to re-think whether our pages should have tip numbers. --JohnBeckett 01:08, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Paste that line

Merge to Short mappings for common tasks? --Fritzophrenic 04:36, 18 January 2009 (UTC)

Agree - merge as above. --JohnBeckett 01:20, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
Done. --Fritzophrenic 21:35, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

Use t(till) to delete text in a line

Merged to Tutorial. JohnBeckett 07:59, 5 April 2009 (UTC)

Merge somewhere. I'm thinking of keeping the material in Best Tips (after cleaning it up), and have that as a place to put simple tips for newcomers. Or, maybe use Tutorial Commands for that. Perhaps put the "delete till" content from this new tip there. I don't see any reason to keep the proposed new tip title "Use t(till)..." because it's not something you would search for. --JohnBeckett 01:20, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Keep. Not really a Vim tip per se, but of great interest to a lot of Vim users (though not to Opera fans like me ;-)). --Fritzophrenic 21:25, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
