Thanks all, I'll check out how to configure my mailer with Google Groups for this list. > I've found it a very helpful list and I've learnt a lot being > subscribed to it despite being a +10yr user of vim. Even Bram Molenaar > posts there occasionally. Nice to know that long-term users parade around in the list. It then, is much like this one, and a few others that I am on. Before I foray into configuring my email program to work with Google Groups, I have one more (simple, I think) question regarding Vim. (I couldn't come up with the proper Gooliage): I'd like to create a keyboard map so instead of doing: - _dd (I believe the underscore is referred to as 'blackhole') I can do: - CTRL-whatever I have a lot of operations that consist of this: - p - j - $ - i - <CR> - ^[ - 3j - i - <TAB><CR> - ^[ - 3dd (not necessarily in that order)...and want an easier way to to do both 'dd' and 'd$' without wrecking the clipboard which I have saved a yank to. fwiw, the box I'm doing this work on is a jail (with both v4 and v6!) under: :! uname -a [No write since last change] FreeBSD name.eagle.ca 7.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 7.2-RELEASE #0: Fri May 1 08:49:13 UTC 2009 root@walker.cse.buffalo.edu:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386 Cheers, Steve [-- Attachment #2 --] 0 *H 01 0 + 0 *H 00CK9AbxIUw0 *H 0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CA0 090507231610Z 100507231610Z0B1 0 UThawte Freemail Member1 0 *H steve@ibctech.ca0"0 *H 0 DZ杙<2IⵀfrsE6 q?0.> S@Œ!V?A\Q r-aZ Ōf/0{OYQhɏߴ F_\Q0BF=<_.a*3ep eY |t ݼcvlҷ+@p iQA{2E9 WN4[Z`h6VM/zPbd(G C ^K6XV4j<t -0+0U 0steve@ibctech.ca0 U 0 0 *H æ|85aQz-*3HG .s*Fw*`HvFw; 9ytƘn0taC/:WC+LÙ{Oq 1 n00CK9AbxIUw0 *H 0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CA0 090507231610Z 100507231610Z0B1 0 UThawte Freemail Member1 0 *H steve@ibctech.ca0"0 *H 0 DZ杙<2IⵀfrsE6 q?0.> S@Œ!V?A\Q r-aZ Ōf/0{OYQhɏߴ F_\Q0BF=<_.a*3ep eY |t ݼcvlҷ+@p iQA{2E9 WN4[Z`h6VM/zPbd(G C ^K6XV4j<t -0+0U 0steve@ibctech.ca0 U 0 0 *H æ|85aQz-*3HG .s*Fw*`HvFw; 9ytƘn0taC/:WC+LÙ{Oq 1 n0?0 0 *H 01 0 UZA10U Western Cape10U Cape Town10U Thawte Consulting1(0&U Certification Services Division1$0"UThawte Personal Freemail CA1+0) *H personal-freemail@thawte.com0 030717000000Z 130716235959Z0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CA00 *H 0 Ħ<UsUNʙZ hup [v :aQP 0cZ,p+Z?qV˯< 6$*+w=+>@dקe*TH<a@ dr` 00U 0 0CU <0:08642http://crl.thawte.com/ThawtePersonalFreemailCA.crl0 U 0)U "0 0 10UPrivateLabel2-1380 *H HP . fgCL!6 -6/ P p<ab:~ t%Pb'qW%ݩ9 Oe_N4[5MwV!x!5$ F]_eO1d0`0v0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CAK9AbxIUw0 + 0 *H 1 *H 0 *H 1 090821003319Z0# *H 1ꎖ -ϼ*}ZA0R *H 1E0C0 *H 0*H 0 *H @0+0 *H (0 +71x0v0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CAK9AbxIUw0 *H 1xv0b1 0 UZA1%0#U Thawte Consulting (Pty) Ltd.1,0*U#Thawte Personal Freemail Issuing CAK9AbxIUw0 *H |%% n l V|]ˤ_x#d u?-N!u Gqx@ 6]' Vs~g5Mk/YfC3j 0A5 tܸldZZXP`nTK~7l!?6KzZvX8a owyUs;O â+ qȹBIG( qR3rioM1'9,7*
