[Vim-latex-devel] [Contact] latex-suite_1.5 smart quotes and stuff

[Lars W. <vim...@so...>]

Hi,

first of all a big thank you for latex-suite it\'s

just *great*. Especially 
the documentation :)

But in the latex-suite doc file for vim i couldn\'t

find an 
email address which says post bugs to this address,

so i am hopefully not too wrong 
here.



I noticed some points about the settup/behaviour of

latex-suite and 
justed wanted to share my views with you.

So let\'s begin:

* some file in the 
package (filebrowser.vim...) have

no label on them that they are shipped with 
latex-suite.

That\'s bad IMHO i had first to look around a little bit

until i felt 
sure that for example filebrowser.vim shipped

with latex-suite

Maybe you 
should leave a note in the filename or

even better put all files in one common sub 
directory.

* the mapping for `\"\': in german characters like

ß, ü, ä... are used 
very frequently. The mapping `+}\' is

too clumsy and by default only uses ä. This is 
not

very useful (hey i would try to tell that in a more

gentle way. But my English is 
too..uhm..bad)

So what about making the `\"\' mapping more configurable?

I 
personally use a keyboard with a british layout

and find it very convenient to use 
\\\"a and friends.

In ftplugin/latex-suite/main.vim i changed the mapping 
for

`\"\' to `\"\"\'. It\'s working quite good.

* I noticed further that the 
startup of vim is

quite a bit slower if i edit a tex file. Maybe this is not

a problem 
on modern machines but if latex-suite 

continues growing or a user has a more 
complicated setup

this might be an issue in the future. Is there no

way of making 
the loading of latex suite features

a little bit more dynamic?



That\'s it. 
Thank you for your time.
