description
In this version, the script can toggle:
    True     <->     False
    true     <->     false
    on       <->     off
    yes      <->     no
    define  <->     undef
    +        <->     -
    >        <->     <
    &&    <->     ||
    &     <->      |
    positive and negative numbers

Move the cursor on the word/char/number to be toggled and press
      <C-T>  in insert mode
or
      +     in normal / visual mode.

This shortcut can be modified in the script file - of course...

If the cursor is positioned on a number, the script looks for a corresponding + or - sign for that number.
If it's found, it will be replaced by the other one. If none is found, a - sign is inserted before the number.

internal optimizations
toggle.vim 0.3 2004-02-06 6.0 Timo Teifel I added define/undef as new words.
I added a mapping for visual mode (it actually quits visual mode and calls the Toggle function. But now it works, if you clicked with the mouse on the word and accidentally switched on visual mode...)
I realised that <C-S-T> is the same than <C-T> I didn't intent to break these mappings, but since I didn't find another suitable keymapping, I now use <C-T>. Anyone who doesn't like that can change that easily.
