Re: Mines

Like Benji said, I hope that those choosing "life-changing" ratings
on Mines aren't *too* serious!  :)

Bram, Vim has been blowing up on me lately...

Syntax Question


At the moment, in the sas.vim syntax file, a specific proc is specified as such:

syn region  sasProcs        start="PROC FORMAT" end="\W"

This is quite limiting because there might be two spaces or 3, who knows?  One thing I am sure of is that FORMAT
must follow PROC in order to be highlighted (although it could be on the next line).  I have been trying to
play with combinations of match, region and/or cluster to get this to work.  I have been trying to think of an
example syntax file which has this sort of highlighting characteristic but am coming up with butkus.  

Any hints?

Geoff

Putting a value in excape mode.

Hi all,  
  If I am in escape mode. How do I paste the contents
of a variable "i" on to the file?

  Say in ex mode, I did :let i=20
  Now in escape mode, is there any way to paste the
value of i?
regds,
Anith.

Vim has no "escape mode" (see ":help vim-modes"), so I'm not sure
what you mean, but I'll assume that you mean "Insert mode".  In that
case, type Ctrl-R followed by

    =i

and Return.  See also ":help i_CTRL-R".

HTH,
Gary

Re: Putting a value in excape mode.

 I could use that in 'Insert' mode.  My actual
requirement is to paste it in normal mode (Sorry that
I mentioned it as escape mode... I use to mention that
way as I reach there by hitting the escape key :))

OK, thanks for the clarification.  In that case, type

    "=i

followed by Return, then

    p

or 

    P

HTH better,
Gary

Re: Putting a value in excape mode.

Wonderful!!!!... Thanks a lot Gary... 
Also (just being a bit greedy ;)) is there any way to
print in bin/hex/oct fashion?
regds,
Anith.

You're most welcome.  There is no built-in way that I know of.  If
this is something you do often, you could write a function to do it.
There is an example at the top of

    :help eval-examples

Regards,
Gary

Re: abbreviations not working


Hello Sandip,

 From your .vimrc, I am guessing that you are using vim-latex. In this
case, that is what is causing the problem... Vim-latex maps the <space>
key, which breaks abbreviations. I might fix this in the future if I
find a good way of doing it (Its not really just vim-latex. If you had
mapped say \ to something, then 12\ wouldn't have expanded to twelve\).
In the meanwhile, here's what I suggest you can try doing in case you
use want to use vim-latex:

Put the line:

call IMAP('12 ', 'twleve ', '')

in ~/.vim/ftplugin/tex.vim

and

iab 12 twelve

in your ~/.vimrc. If in a vim session, you invoke latex-suite, it will
restore some functionality... Specifically, it will make 12<space>
expand to twelve<space>... Its not quite a vim abbreviation because 12\
will not expand to twelve\... but its a start anyway... If you never
edit a tex file in a vim session, the iab in your ~/.vimrc will do the
job a little better.

Let me know if this works....
