I have a one key mapping to build my project. noremap <F5> :make<CR> This works great. However I sometimes am building a only a piece of the project.

When using NERD Tree on MacVim, I can open a file in a new tab by using 't' (or 'T' to open it in the background) in the NERD Tree window, but when I switch to that tab, the NERD Tree window is no longer visible since it remains in the original tab. Is there a way to automatically open NERD Tree in new tabs when opening files from NERD ...

I'd like to search a upper case word, for example COPYRIGHT in a file . then I try to do the search like: /copyright/i but it doesn't work.

In my fantasy world, I could run this: vim --magic-mindreading-flag */README.txt and rather than editing the files for me in sequence, vim will somehow recognize that they're identical and save my changes to all files simultaneousl...
