Vim.org email problems fixed

Hello Vim users!

You may have noticed it was a bit quiet on the Vim lists. That's
because the vim.org email server crashed and it took Stephan a few days
to make it work again. Restoring a backup turned out to be difficult,
let me know if you see something wrong.

ability to job_start( vimscript code

Hi,

Just Would like to know if it is possible to job_start a vim script function or vimscript code.

Like this :

let fichierEntree=expand('$tmp/vim/src/gui.h')
let mylist = readfile(fichierEntree,'b')
let idx = 0
for line in mylist
if stridx(item,'\(TOOLBAR_BUTTON_\w\+\s\+\)\d\+')>-1
let mylist[idx] = substitute(item,'\(TOOLBAR_BUTTON_\w\+\s\+\)\d\+',submatch(1).'48',"")
endif
let idx+=1
endfor
call writefile(mylist,fichierEntree,'b')


Thanks

for

syn match scilabArithmetic "[+-/\\*\^]\{1}"
I wrote also for each operator
e.g.
syn match scilabOverrun "[\*]\{2,}"

and assigned scilabOverrun to Error:
hi def link scilabOverrun Error
