Re: Equivalent of vim's o or O commands

[Fabian Braennstroem <f.braennstroem@gmx.de>]

Hi,

viper in combination with vimpulse works great for me. The 
visual marking works well, except the rectangular marking, 
but I can get along with cua for these cases. Obviously, you 
won't have every vim command, but  in combination with the 
power of emacs you can have most of it or even more.  Once 
you got used to some annoying stuff in the visual mode 
(marking to the end of the line stops at the last character) 
it is great :-)

Regards!
Fabian
