Yes, there are some people which prefer their native language and/or can't speak english good enough. One of the reasons for me to write the page in german, was that the beginning of the page was a special "german problem": the "programmer's chars" like {}[]\ are hard to reach on a german keyboard, because the umlaut keys take the places where on an english keyboard you'll find those {}[]\ chars. So english speakers don't have this problem. In the meantime I have also added other useful tips which might be interesting for non-english users too and I'll take your advice and will translate the page (or at least a short version) to english. I'm just looking for a cool way to call Vim (or other editors) fast from any application. When I'll have found the solution I'll update the page and will also make a translation. I'll post an announcement here. Greetings from Cologne Peter
