how to download vim script in command line
- by HaiYuan Zhang

surf the plugin's homepage in vim
online using fireXXXX
download a right version of the
plugin to my laptop by click some highlighted link
upload the downloaded plugin from my
laptop to linux server using winscp
which is really inconvenient. I don't know what is the magic behind this : I mean for the same hyperlinki click it in web browser I can let you download it but use wget plus the hyperlink in linux commandline will end up with nothing but error indication. hyperlink in web browser . otherwise I can get the link in web browser and then use wget or some similar tool to actually do the downloding.
I try new cool vim scripts quite often , so you can imagin my dismay when have to repeat the tedious action all the time. So if anyone of you knows some tips which can let me downloading the vim scripts in a more "professional" way, I'll appreciate it a lot.
