extending VIM

Nilesh Parmar
Hello Experts,

I would like to learn how to extend Vim. Are there any good books or resources I could refer?


Thanks,
Nilesh

The first place I'd start would be to look through the catalog of
currently-available scripts[1] to see if there's something similar
to the functionality you want to create.  Then study what the
existing script(s) does/do, and try to modify.  Alternatively,
depending on how you read, you might want to start at

  :help usr_41.txt

Hope this helps,
