  I see that you have a page open in netscape called Vim for Perl developers. Where is that? It sounds like something I'd like to read.

    I believe that's here [maks.net]. I found it through a Meditation on Perlmonks [perlmonks.org].

      And in case any other Emacs geeks out there get VI-envy after seeing the neat line-numbering, here's a line-numbering mode for Emacs that does the same thing:

      May I blatanly advertise the fact that vim 6 comes with a perl on-the-fly-reindentation script (that I wrote, it's in $VIMRUNTIME/indent/perl.vim). See :help filetype-indent-on.

      I read that document when I first spotted it on Perl Monks too. A good enlighten read.

      I remember playing around with .vimrc for a while when I first discovered some of the extras, before I finally realised I just like my runtime configuration to include 'se ts=4'. Maybe I'm just an old timer now (I started using vi in 1985), which probably also explains why I can't stand emacs ;)
