Heya Andy

Just a quickie from me on this great topic

i have recently found 2 nice vim macros that allow you to select a  
block of text and perltidy it, and perltidy the whole file too
(the following example has these 2 macros bound to keys f4, and f5)


stick this in your ~/vimrc file, and feel good ;)

" Enable Perltidy processing
map <F4>   <Esc>:%! perltidy<CR>
map <F5>   <Esc>:'<,'>! perltidy<CR>


cheers, Mason.
