vimpulse bug: visual-line does not select final newline

Fri Aug 20 18:19:40 CEST 2010

Hi Stepan, I am back.  I recently lost a daughter and have been
grieving, and am transitioning back into the temporal world again.
Before I say more, I'd just encourage everyone to hold their families
close and be sure to spend time with them every day.  Family is the
most important thing in this world.

Now, to the discussion at hand:

Thank you for making the changes, I'll review them with the confidence
that they are clearly improvements.  I don't fully understand how
vimpulse-surround had repercussions and was affecting vimpulse
surround behavior, I will read more carefully into it.

I have thought about that as well, but there's something very natural
about typing 's<a href="...">' to create a link.  Tim Pope I'm sure
wrestled with that decision.
