"xml_taginsert" is a Vim plugin that permits the insertion of xml tags by simply pressing <F7>.
Vim is a famous text editor that was launched by Bram Moolenaar in 1991 for the Amiga computer. Vim was designed as an advanced version of vi editor, equipped with enhanced features to make it more efficient in editing program source code. Its full name is Vi Improved, and it is free and open-source software that can run on different systems. While Vim is cross-platform supported, it is most preferred on Unix-like operating systems.
Vim's interface is not based on any menus or icons. Instead, it relies on commands given in a text user interface, and its GUI mode, gVim, only adds menus and toolbars for frequently used commands. Therefore, Vim can be tricky to learn for some users, but once the basics are grasped, editing becomes more efficient. Vim features a tutorial for beginners, and the Vim Users' Manual that covers its basic and more advanced features. Users can access the built-in help facility using the : help command to query and navigate through commands and features.
To use the xml_taginsert Vim plugin, you must have Vim and imaps installed. To install xml_taginsert, copy the downloaded file into your ftplugin directory, and create a symlink named 'html_taginsert.vim' to ensure that it is loaded when you edit html files. Xml_taginsert is an excellent plugin that simplifies xml tag insertion in Vim, and it works like magic.
