Gist and Vim: Two great tastes that go great together

<p>A few weeks ago, I asked for recommendations for using Gist and Vim together. My appeal to Lazyweb went unanswered, but I happened to stumble onto a Gist plugin for Vim today, and so I'm putting out the procedure for anyone who wants to merge these two powerful forces.</p>

<p>So, first things first, grab yourself a copy of the gist.vim plugin over here on <a href="http://github.com/mattn/gist-vim/tree/master">github</a>. You will need a few things:</p>

<ul>
<li>Vim (of course...)</li>
<li>Git</li>
<li>Curl</li>
</ul>

<p>If you're running openSUSE, you should have Vim installed by default. If you don't have Git or Curl, just use zypper to install them:</p>

<p>
<code>zypper in git</code>
<code>zypper in curl</code>
</p>

<p>Next, slap it into your ~/.vim/plugin/ directory, and fire up Vim.</p>
