[Tuglist] Expanding \input{files}

[Manoj K N]

Hello,

This trick is for users of vim only.

Instead of making a separate file as suggested below, one can do this.

Put the following lines, and more, as you would like, in a file ~/.tex.vim

cmap mkd :w<CR> :!latex %<CR>
cmap mkp :w<CR> :!pdflatex %<CR>

Add the following line in ~/.vimrc

autocmd BufNewFile,BufRead *.tex so <sfile>:h/.tex.vim

Then starting vim with 

$vim foobar.tex

suffices. I would prefer to name the first file .tex.vim; if one names it
*.tex, whenever one opens it in vim to edit, it will be sourced,
unnecessarily. 

With regards,
Manoj.
