Vimblog.vim is a practical software solution that provides bloggers with an easy-to-use ruby script to create and publish blog posts within the Vim editor.
One of the best things about vimblog.vim is that it's out-of-the-box compatible with WordPress, but it's also very easy to configure so that it can manage other platforms such as Blogger, MovableType, TextPattern, and more. This makes it a versatile tool that works for a variety of users and preferences.
The beauty of Open Source software is that you can study its code, change it to fit your needs, and use it to your heart's content. To use vimblog.vim, you will need to have VIM compiled with Ruby scripting support, as well as Ruby. Once you have these requirements figured out, you can copy the vimblog.vim file to one of your VIM directories (such as $HOME/.vim/vimblog.vim) and add the appropriate code to your .vimrc file.
Before you can start using vimblog.vim to manage your blog posts, you will need to add your login and password information to the get_personal_data function below, and ensure that you have a xmlrpc.php file in your blog directory. If you don't, you can adjust the @xml variable to locate this file appropriately.
Once you've set everything up, you can start testing vimblog.vim capabilities by opening Vim and typing :Blog rp to get your recent 10 posts. All in all, if you're looking for an easy and efficient way to manage your blog posts, vimblog.vim is worth checking out!
