[vimb-users] some questions about commands

[James C. <fal...@fa...>]

Hi list,

I just started trying vimb today and so far I love the UI, the man page
and the simplicity.

Questions:

1. What's a good way to configure some commands to always run on
   startup? Right now I just always invoke vimb as
   "vimb -C 'source ~/path/to/commands/file' --no-maximize", and that's
   fine because it's a window manager shortcut, but I was wondering if
   I'm missing something since it seems a bit awkward.

2. Is there a way to include comments in a file executed with :source?

3. I noticed "%" is treated specially in the {cmd} argument to :autocmd,
   but I don't see it documented. Is that a documentation oversight or
   did I just miss it?

   For example, through trial and error I found this command keeps a log
   of loaded pages; note I had to escape "%s" but also found the loaded
   URL was available as "%":

	autocmd LoadCommitted * shellcmd /bin/sh -c 'printf "\%s LC \%s\n" "\$(date -u +\%FT\%TZ)" "%" >> ~/var/log/vimb'

4. Is there anywhere vimb users hang out, besides this mailing list? An
   IRC channel perhaps?
