 |

Hi,
has vim some inner variable to use in a file that updates its contents
automatically?
For instance, the date. I'd like to have a text file with a line such:
Last updated: November 19, 2008
which is automatically updated to the new date each time I open the file
and modify it, and which is transparent to other editors (so that they
see the real date characters), and that tomorrow, if I open the file and
modify it shows:
Last updated: November 20, 2008
Thanks in advance.

If it is more than you need, you could also try:
