Our comp.sources.misc archive does not go back very far.  I thought I
saw Brandon post some vi map macros for editing C code about two years
ago.  Was I dreaming?

Could someone please mail them to me?  We don't have ftp here.  I'd
prefer them compressed uuencoded to preserve the special chars.

Also, I am interested in vi map macro code which you find useful.  I'll
summarize if I get any "me too's."  Here are some from from Kevin Minor
(motcid!marble!minor):

map ^A o{^[o}^[O                
ab aoo {^[o}^[O 
ab defoo ^[0i#define
ab inoo ^[0i#include
ab foo for () {^[o}^[k$2hi
ab woo while () do {^[o}^[k$5hi
ab ifoo if () {^[o}^[k$2hi
ab eloo else {^[o}^[O   
ab elifoo else if () {^[o}^[k$2hi
ab mainoo main (argc,argv) ^[oint argc;^[ochar *argv;^[o{^[o}^[O

Thanks,  -Mitch (uunet!ethz!wyle)

[Die Proletarier haben nichts ausser ihre Ketten zu verlieren.  Sie
haben eine Welt zu gewinnen.  Arbeiter aller Laender vereinigt euch!]

The proletarians have nothing to lose but their chains.   They have a
world to win.  Workers of all countries unite!  Karl Marx, Friedrich
Engels _Das_Kommunist_Manifesto_, January 30, 1888.

The workers ceased to be afraid of the bosses.  It's as if they suddenly
threw off their chains. -- a Soviet journalist, about the Donruss coal
strike, October 19, 1989.
