as i look at those in vim, they look correct -- they may get
neutered between here and there, of course, and become vacant
question-marks or some such.

his tome "the law" should be annual required reading for anyone
expecting to live in a civilized nation. it should also be
weekly required reading for any felons who occupy political

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.
