Re: [Vim-latex-devel] can you modify these?

[Daniele A. <d.a...@gm...>]

The two options
\begin{equation*}
    cursor here
 \end{equation*}<++>

and

\begin{equation*}
    cursor here
 \end{equation*}
<++>

are only one button away from each other, and I don't see why is hard to
stick to option 1, press Ctrl-J to the placeholder, and then Enter to go to
new line.

I am also skeptical about the use of $$ ... $$. This is not a Vim-LaTeX
problem, but a LaTeX one. The use of $$ has been replaced long time ago by
\[ ... \]. Using double dollars is obsolete, and it would be better to
change this habit rather than Vim-LaTeX.

Best.

Daniele
