I find that the command-line window (:h q:) does this job pretty well in and of itself. Nominally it holds only the 50 most recently used commands, but the point is that if you are constantly reusing or slightly modifying a previously used command, it tends to remain in q:. You can adjust the number of commands it holds, and if you find that you are executing a massive number of trivial substitutions that would displace the commands you might want to preserve, you can prevent them being stored in the command line window by a pair of mappings such as these: " Current bad word forms :s prototype in q:, then type char cursor should end on nmap <F6> k]Syiwq:i%s/^V^R"/^V^R"/gc<Esc>F " Run current q: command line without adding it to q: command history nmap <S-F6> 0"cd$:q<cr>:@c<cr> imap <S-F6> <Esc>0"cd$:q<cr>:@c<cr> -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
