WHAT: St. Louis Vim Geeks - A Tour of Charlie Sanders' Vim Environment - Another Look at Visual Mode WHERE: CAIT - The Center for the Application of Information Technology Classroom 24 5 N. Jackson Ave, St. Louis, Missouri 63105 WHEN: Wednesday (really!), February 27th, at 6:30pm RSVP: http://www.meetup.com/vimgeeks/
Seems like forever since we've had a proper non-holiday / non-bowling meeting. Let's fix that:
A Tour of Charlie Sanders's (Ruby-Flavored) Vim Environment
We've got a special request for the third in our series of Vim Environment Tours this month. Those of us launching into large Ruby projects (a.k.a., me and my co-workers) have asked Charlie Sanders to show us around his Vim configuration, with an emphasis on how he uses it to do magical Ruby stuff. (Don't worry if you're not a Ruby developer, though -- the ideas are applicable to all sorts of programming, even if the specific plugins and settings are different.)
Another Look at Visual Mode
Speaking of special requests... Apparently I made one too many references to an earlier talk I gave on Visual Mode, at which point I was gently but firmly informed that I hadn't actually given that presentation at a Vim Geeks meeting, and that there were several people that might like to actually *see* the presentation instead of just hear about it. So with that in mind, this month I'll give an updated version of "Seeing Is Believing" (including a couple of new visual-mode tricks I've picked up since giving the talk the first time).
Food, Drink, and Free Stuff
Still on the fence? How about some free Dewey's pizza and a chance to win a book from O'Reilly? Just be sure to RSVP so we don't run short on the victuals.
When and Where
We'll be meeting at 6:30pm on Wednesday, February 27th, in Classroom 24. Here's the address:
CAIT (The Center for the Application of Information Technology) Classroom 24 5 N. Jackson Ave St. Louis, Missouri 63105 CAIT on Google Maps Forsyth MetroLink Station
CAIT also provides detailed driving directions and parking information . (Don't worry about the parking permit stuff. It doesn't apply to us.)
See you Wednesday,
Bill
