May I suggest a few plugins:

Charles, I don't see how to get the plugin. When I click on "vimball" at this link I'm led to another plugin, Vimball Archiver, which I'm guessing I don't need. How do I get HiLinkTrace plugin?

Click the link which doubles as the header in the list.

Thanks, Ben. I'm confused. I was expecting a vimball to download which I click on that link. Instead -- I think -- I'm referred to a page with this text:

Is *this* the code of the vimball?
