I'd really like to see O'Reilly put out a "Vim Hacks" book, but in the meantime, there's a Hacking Vim book which has just come out. I should see if I can find a decent technical bookstore in London and check it out (oh, for a Powell's Tech in London!).
In the meantime, I should probably scrape together all of my vim hacks and post them somewhere. I'd probably learn from them since I've use them a lot and just forget 'em, but it might be nice for others to have, too. Critiques would also be useful since I pretty sure I'm declaring variables incorrectly in some plugins.
(I seem to recall that Damian's writing a vim book. Can't wait for that!)

He mentioned it in response to another plea for vim help from me.

Oh my goodness. I'm sure I'll need to get a helmet with Damian's book to keep my brains from spilling out when my head explodes.

I'm sure he'll have an appendix on how to use Vim to network computers together into something like a Beowulf cluster dedicated to protein folding solutions. Unfortunately, the controller code will be written in Latin.
