texcompletion

A Vim filetype plugin to complete TeX / LaTeX control sequences

featrue

There are several plugins that help Vimmer to write Tex/LaTeX documents, such as Vim-Latex. Some of them are good but heavy, every keystroke tends to be a mapping! Also you neet to spent time to learn how to use those plugins.

texcompletion is light and simple, only one function is there, which help you to complete the TeX/plain-Tex/LaTeX control sequences or commands, by typing <C-X>u or <C-X><C-U> in insert-mode.

This is something called User defined completion, and is a build-in feature of Vim. If you are not familiar with that, see :h ins-completion for more infomation.
