In my continuing quest for productivity and an easy life, I''ve put together a .deb package of vim-scripts that change vim from merely the world''s greatest editor into a powerhouse for Rails development. But more importantly than that I''ve got it into the Ubuntu distribution (yeah!). So you''ll be able to do sudo apt-get install vim-rails vim-rails-setup and you''re good to go. Or at least you will be able to once Gutsy is released and you upgrade.... :-) Until then it is a little bit more fiddly - see http://www.3spoken.co.uk/2007/07/vim-rails-in-gutsy.html The package is based around Tim Pope''s stunning vim-rails script, along with a bunch of other scripts that provide additional facilities: - surround and allml scripts which are used by vim-rails. - The project script to give you a explorer window to select your files - The dbext script which gives you direct access to the database - The SimpleFold script so that you can fold your methods and classes with ease (using \f) - The SuperTab script so that completion works like it does under Bash. also includes - HAML syntax highlighting. - And a couple of colour styles (vibrantink, vividchalk) that emulate the colour scheme of a well known MacOs Rails Editor. Try it out and see what you think. If you find a problem with it, or have a suggestion for enhancement then let me know - preferably by filing a bug on Launchpad here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/3accounts/vim-rails/ Enjoy NeilW --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
