I can respect your argument and see the validity to it. So tell us why
your project to coordinate this effort is better than some of the
others that are out there? I don't a have a pro or con to yours or any
of the others that exist or could exist. Also at present I don't use
any of the existing options. I have I think 3 plugins. But as I
continue to learn more ways to use vim to a greater degree to
manipulate text files I might start adding more plugins to my vim
install. So why should I use any of these efforts?
