Hi ho hi ho it's off to VIM I go

I am so sick and tired of overrated IDEs. I just want to develop without having worry if my IDE is going to crash or suck the life out of my laptop. So I have decided to move over to a cross platform code editor, VIM.

This will provide me syntax highlighting and code completion with ctags. Really other than that, I don't need anything else. Since I use QT I can use Designer to create the interface.

Apart from the fact VIM is so much more stable it also has other productive features utilizing keyboard commands and macros. I'm no VIM ninja, but I think by learning to use it more effectively I will be more productive and retain some sanity.
