the logic is, bubba is pulling down six-digits grants for the
express purpose of chasing cancer; when it's caught, the grants
stop, and the house in the hamptons would have to go.
is there any gravy train out there, aside from microso~1,

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #48 from Will Trillich <will@serensoft.com>
:
To peruse your CURRENT VIM SETTINGS (there's LOTS of them)
from within Vim, simply do
:options
You can change them there, on-the-fly, as well. Type
"ctrl-W ctrl-W" to switch "panes" or "ctrl-W q" to close one.
Try ":help" to learn more.
