[vimplugin-devel] Download link?

I think the link given at the web page URL
http://http://vimplugin.org/installation isn't any good, at least, the few times
I tried it, I only got a "Type 403" error.  I wanted the "vimplugin" eclipse
editor's plugin, because I'm really and truly disappointed with the native
eclipse's editor.  I like Vim's interface and always have, so I'm really and
truly anxious to get a good address for the vimplugin update site.

Please, if you could give me a good URL, I'd really appreciate that.

Did you put the URL into you're browser's address bar?
This URL is not meant to be used that way. It's for
the eclipse update manager.

In your eclipse use
- help|updates|find and install
- search for new features
- new remote site with the URL given above
- finish. A dialog should popup presenting you the plugin to install.
- restart eclipse.

I think it changed a bit with eclipse 3.4 / ganymede:

- help|software updates|available software
- add site
- paste the url into the text box
- expand the new site
- check the "Vimplugin" checkbox
- Install


Hope that helps

I just tried the http://vimplugin.org/installation and Eclipse v3.4.1tells
me there isn't anything there. I was able to install the plugin using:

http://vimplugin.sf.net/update

Sorry, lot's of confusion. The originial poster talked
about the _link_ given at the _url_ http://vimplugin.org/installation.
http://vimplugin.org/installation is an ordinary web page.
The _link_ given there is http://vimplugin.sf.net/update

When I said "Did you put the URL into you're browser's address bar? 
[...]" I should better have said "Did you follow that link with your
browser? It's meant for the eclipse update manager."

So, yes, of course

  * http://vimplugin.sf.net/update is for the eclipse update manager
  * http://vimplugin.org/installation is the web page describing the 
installation

Thanks for pointing that out, Frank.
