Sorry, no--it just lives in my home directory with no replication to the
Internet.

I know some people put their personal dotfile repos on the public Web
but I'm neither that much of an exhibitionist, nor that proud of some of
the kludges I come up with, nor willing to provide support services for
such things.

This one, I expect, will either sink into oblivion or be taken up by
someone with more Vim syntax-fu than I have.  If the latter, I am happy
to consult on fiddly *roff syntax issues to get the thing as robust as
possible.  (At some point, roff language inputs overcome the power
of Vim's matching facilities, even if the escape and control characters
are not changed.  But I don't know exactly what the limits of such
facilities are.)

Regards,
Branden
