Let me first document this a little bit. Currently it is just a bunch of
files and a little bit messy to share. I'll update here when I have
written down this a little bit, so you can more easily select what you
need.

Your last release was made on 2004-09-08. I thought it's an abandoned project,
a dead end. So I didn't take any 2nd look at it

For example you don't have access back to your to your inbox if you edit an
email from an external editor. Anyway it seems like my problems are solved:

It seems like the only piece I was missing was:
sudo apt-get install ruby1.9.1-dev
BTW I'm evaluating vmail just for about 30 minutes but I'm impressed already!
Wow! It works almost exactly as I wanted

I used to use this for many years when I was on 32-bit Microsoft
Windows. Since I moved to 64 bit, I have not been able to find or to
build Vim with support for 64 bit perl, and so am not sure what tweaks
will need to be done to make it work under 64 bit Microsoft Windows and
64 bit perl. Also, when I had access to a linux system, I had verified
that TMS works there; no idea what tweaks will need to be done to make
TMS work under newer linux releases.

This doesn't make sense to me...when you launch vim to edit a piece of
mail (or any other text), it *is* "real" Vim. I use Pentadactly and
gmail...when I am composing email I am in Vim with all the plugins,
completion, etc (I tend to compose plain text emails in Markdown, so I
use the appropriate filetypes and syntax files, etc.
I don't understand what you want that these solutions don't give you.

Re: email plugin
I'd sum up this thread:
1. Vmail:
This seems to be the kind of thing I look for. But it depends on
sqlite3, ruby, lynx and maybe some other packages so get:
ERROR: Error installing vmail:
ERROR: Failed to build gem native extension.
2. Vim as an external editor for email client X (including mutt and
"Text Editor Anywhere"):
This is exactly the opposite of what I'd like to achieve. I'd like to
have _real_ vim plugin for emailing so I can take advantage of some
other plugins, omni completion, scripting, folding... all that stuff
where vim excels.
You may oppose: "So you want vim to be like that Operating System
lacking a decent editor?". Yes, sort of. I think there's a point

Re: email plugin
this works great. thanks for sharing.
now a even "nerd" request, (not related to this thread, but since a lot
of people here are both TB&VIM user ):
with VIM we know how to generate beautiful HTML right (e.g :TOhtml),
so is there a good way to insert the VIM generated HTML code into
the email?
I know there is a "Insert" "HTML..." dialog, but it's really not
convenient...need to find that option out and do copy & paste..
the goal is to make what VIM generated email in the fancy HTML
format usable in TB...
or any other plugins?
b.t.w this reply was composed from vim in TB :)

It can make writing an indent file very easy, it really depends on your rules and how anal you might want to be.

You didn't mention your platform, so I might as well:
<plug>
If you are on Windows and using Microsoft Outlook:
OutlookVim : Use Vim to edit the body of an email from Microsoft Outlook
This gets the email into Vim, from there, the filetype is set to "mail" and I have a variety of Vim scripts which make my life easier.

Re: Vim + tmux with mouse support questions
i don't have a solution for you - I saw this same thing with tmux and
found :res / :vertical resize or C-W -/+, </>, =/| actually worked
faster anyway. more fluid too. so, if anyone has a solution, i'll
probably use it just to be able to show off vim coolness with the
mouse again, but it won't do anything for my productivity :)
this is not (necessarily) an issue with putty as i use rxvt+u and
screen-256color terminal
also, this is with mouse=all with vim 7.3
i'm guessing this is a tmux issue where it is stealing whatever mouse
terminal command or signal (i don't really know how mice interact with
the terminal) vim would use to respond the way you want. if this is
the case, and you get no working response, there's a tmux user list as
well with a decent community you might look to. (though something like
this should go in vim's faq somewhere)

I use several handwritten plugin for fixing wrongly encoded characters
(e.g. change Ä into Ä and several others),
Deleting quoted Signatures, adding my Signature, changing subject,
setting options (textwidth, expandtab, formatoptions), reformatting the
text, spellchecking (this plugin was made before spell checking was
available in Vim), inserting special text, as well as custom completion
for addresses and attaching files (this functionality is available in
my CheckAttach plugin for use with mutt).

Thank you for your answer.
Do you know any vim scripts that make the key:value pairs returned by
taglist() easy accessible to the user? In particular i think about
adding information to the drop down completion menu. Currently it only
shows the value of name, kind and cmd. Can the user change the entries
that are shown?

The mutt documentation is available on the <F1> key, and is very
detailed and informative. The capabilities of mutt are significant, so
acquiring not just knowledge, but understanding, involves effort. That

The more you learn, over the decades, the harder it is to retain it all¹.
My personal software survival notes now amount to several hundred pages.
They avoid the need to learn stuff several times over - the effort of
doing it once is enough.
It is worth remembering that little understanding is needed in order to
get started, and all the handy customisations can be configured over
years, as the need becomes evident, and a method is learnt. (The '?'
command help is also useful in the beginning)
Put these lines in your ~/.muttrc
set editor=vim
set tilde # Show End of Text, like in vim.
Now vim is a "plug-in" for mutt, and you have leveraged your vim
knowledge.

No indenting exists for this previously, it's a language (currently unnamed) I'm writing as an experiment in functional programming and to learn to parse.
I can't think of any other markers really, the syntax for the language is pretty minimalistic, here's a quicksort implementation that has 95% of the language in it:
quicksort (ls) :=
if (= (length ls) 1)
ls
(let
pivot = car ls,
less = filter (lambda(x) -> < x pivot) (cdr ls),
more = filter (lambda(x) -> >= x pivot) (cdr ls),
in:
append (quicksort less) (cons pivot (quicksort more)));
main := quicksort [1 2 3 5 18 4 1 4 1 4]
Since () are used to group function applications their extremely common. I was originally thinking a syntax similar to Scheme's or Common Lisp's might do it, but I'm confused how they manage it based on their indent files, I'm still pretty newbie-ish at this sort of vim stuff.

I'd try using the searchpair() or searchpairpos() functions for an exact solution which works in all cases.
Or a simpler solution might just check the previous line for an opening (, but this will be hard to get right for nested parentheses groups.

I agree with what you're saying. I tried Mutt (which took me about a week to
set up), then tried Cone (which had problems sending) and i switched to Alpine
and haven't looked back.
Some things in alpine i think are a bit old fashioned BUT all well tried and
tested... and a friendly bunch of maillist folk to help in the unlikely event
of getting stuck with the very helpful documentation. Each new release and all
i do is copy across my pinerc file to /home. Vim is popular as the editor
although pico is fine for emails.

Vim + tmux with mouse support questions
Hi,
I am pretty new for vim and tmux, and exploring right now. I have vim set up
on terminal (using putty) with mouse support, but when I moved to tmux.
Found a couple of problems.
(1) I like quickfix window, use :ccopen to open quickfix window in vim, and
I can resize the quickfix window with mouse without any problem. But in tmux
+ vim, mouse doesn't seem to work in resizing quickfix window (using mouse
to click into quickfix window is fine). Note that I was able to use mouse to
select/resize pan in tmux by the following settings.
set-option -g mode-mouse on
set-option -g mouse-select-pane on
set-option -g mouse-select-window on
set-option -g mouse-resize-pane on
The problem here seems to be, how to enable mouse to resize a
window(quickfix window, NOT tmux window) inside one tmux pane.
(2) I installed and enabled ctags and taglist in my vim setup. I can use
mouse to resize taglist window. But when I moved to tmux, taglist window can
still be opened and entered, but the window resize using mouse seems
disabled. This is similiar situation in quickfix window.
Does anybody has an idea about how to fix these problems? I wish I can
entirely move to tmux using vim+mouse to improve productivity.
Thanks a lot,
Bo

feff is the BOM character for UTF-8 as well, where it does not have any meaning in terms of byte ordering, but can be used to identify a file as UTF-8.
In UTF-8, the feff character is represented as efbbbf (three bytes) due to the way UTF-8 encodes multi-byte values in varying length.
The interesting thing about UTF-8 is that often even if an editor misidentifies a UTF-8 file as Latin1, or as windows-1252, for example, most of the file will remain readable, because UTF-8 has the same byte representation for many characters as Latin1 does.

From time to time, but not at this precise moment, development has
happened on some "future code branch" of Vim, which was then labeled as
either "alpha" or "beta". Important security-and-stability bug fixes
have been, at such times, backported from the "future" release to the
"current stable" release. Nowadays, however, the only code branch
visibly under development is the current stable branch, namely Vim
7.3.x, and all previous branches are at EOL AFAICT. This means that, as
Gary said, currently each new patchlevel obsoletes all previous ones:
the current version is 7.3.744 released some three hours ago as I'm
typing this message. Like Ben said, any bug found in some earlier
release will still be investigated and, if some already published
patchlevel did not fix it, a fix will be attempted, and, if found and
accepted by Bram, published as a new patchlevel, etc.
Someday an alpha or beta pre-release of 7.4 or 8.0 will probably appear,
and then we will again be in the other, "transition" case described at
the beginning of the previous paragraph, until a new "stable" 7.4 or 8.0
release obsoletes the 7.3.x branch.

Hi,
This is the bom (byte order mark) character:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark
<feff> is the BOM character for UTF-16 encoding. UTF-16 uses 2 bytes to
encode a character, but the order of them might differ. This BOM
character tells which byte comes first.
Best,
Marcin

Hi,
This is the bom (byte order mark) character:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark
<feff> is the BOM character for UTF-16 encoding. UTF-16 uses 2 bytes to
encode a character, but the order of them might differ. This BOM
character tells which byte comes first.
Best,
Marcin
Best,

This strange character is the byte-order-mark ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark ). The exact byte sequence you see indicates the file is in utf-8. Vim probably did not detect the file as utf-8.
Check that:
1. your Vim is compiled with multibyte support
2. your 'encoding' option is set AT THE VERY BEGINNING OF YOUR .VIMRC to utf-8
3. your 'fileencodings' option contains ucs-bom or utf-8 or both, before any 8-bit encodings.
If these are all the case your Vim should automatically detect the utf-8 fileencoding and the presence of a BOM, and set 'fenc' and 'bomb' appropriately.

Hi Antoine,
I'm not really that familiar with the different encoding types (UTF-8,
UTF-16, etc), but when I came across a strange <feff> character which
I think is related to what you're describing.
I open up two files in gedit and they seem to contain the same exact
line. But in vim, there's a strange character at the beginning
"<feff>". It's not a string, because if I go to the beginning of the
line and hit 'x', it deletes the entire <feff>, indicating it's some
sort of special hidden character.
What is this strange character? In Vi's hex mode (%!xxd), I can see
there is a sequence of bits "efbbbf", and the rest of the file seems
to somehow be offset
Thanks,
Ven

Some open-source projects (like Python, for example) have a cutting-edge version but also release security updates, etc. for older versions. So you can still download Python 2.7 for example even though they're pushing Python 3.
It would be like having a Vim 7.2 branch that we would back-port crash fixes and data loss issues and the like from the default branch (7.3). But Vim doesn't work this way, and as far as I know, it hasn't ever worked this way. With Vim it seems there is only ever one active line of development.
