*** Please drop me an email to report any bugs/issues that you find.  That can greatly reduce the time until this thing becomes stable.  See my profile for the address.  Thanks! *** GNU Flymake allows Emacs users to perform compilation, static analysis, and other tools in the background as they develop.  Upon each save, a background process is kicked off to perform the checking.  If errors are identified, the lines containing the error are highlighted and a tooltip provides the error message.  This is very well-suited to feature development where the developer spends a lot of time in a single buffer. I can see the value in this fast-paced workflow but I don't use Emacs. There have been a few attempts to bring this functionality to Vim but each of them seem to have their limitations.  This plugin attempts to overcome them. For more detailed information (including outstanding issues), install and check out: :help flymaker Screenshots: http://i1177.photobucket.com/albums/x344/seymore15074/Flymaker1.png http://i1177.photobucket.com/albums/x344/seymore15074/Flymaker2.png (BTW, that cool statusline is from pwdstatus.vim!)

install details

Extract the tarball into your ~/.vim directory or, if you are using pathogen.vim, a ~/.vim/bundle/flymaker directory. As of version 0.2.0, this plugin requires the AsyncCommand plugin found here: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=3431 Note that by default, an ftplugin for C++ will be added.  Turn it on via ":FlyOn".  It likely needs configured to match your specific build criteria. :help flymaker
