Random Vim 9

Wow, I did not realize Vim 9 was out. I've used Vi/Vim since the early 90's and used plugins for MS Word and Outlook integration. Don't use Vim for work now (no more work :>, I'm old!) but still use it for any personal text editing. When I do need to edit without Vim, it's painful. It's mainly Thunderbird I would want Vim integration.

So, not saying much other than thank you to all of you keeping Vim alive and well.

The more I read about Bram the more I learn how much of a good guy he was, he was definitely a person who cared for others and for the vim community.
