[Solved] vim package for PKGBUILDS?

I'm guess I'm kinda wondering if there is a normal method people usually develop PKGBUILDs on Arch. When I used Gentoo their was a package that added support to vim for creating ebuilds that had a special syntax-highlighting for making ebuilds and (if I remember correctly) created a template .ebuild when creating a new ebuild. If seen some packages in AUR that have a vim notation at the bottom (i.e. looks like a vim listing of the default settings used - i.e. tabs...). I've come across the pkgbuild-mode in AUR for emacs and was wondering if there was something like this for vim? ??

Edit: Ah the line I always see is:

# vim:set ts=2 sw=2 et:

The is PKGBUILD syntax highlighting for vim in the "pacman-contrib" package.

huh, these are some good tools. bacman and pactree are actually particularly good things as I've been wondering lately how to go about them. Ah, and yes, the syntax-highlighting is much appreciated. Would it be too much do you think to get a skeleton file in (template) as described in this-post? I also noticed a plugin can be used link. Or am I asking too much .

I someone creates one and sends it to the pacman-dev list, it will probably be included in contrib... Otherwise you can start with the prototype in /usr/share/pacman

I might be able to get a chance to do it myself in the next week, not sure.

Thanks for the template btw, didn't know that existed. Now I know where the '# vim:set ts=2 sw=2 et:' comes from.
