uh, I have been not precise enough and just outlined the idea.

:map! += ^[:s/\([a-zA-Z_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*\)$/\1=\1+/^M:noh^MA

Where 	":" means go into vim Commandmode
	"^[" means Esc, you have to enter it pressing Ctrl-v and then Esc
	"^M" means "Return', you have to enter pressing Ctrl-v and then Return

Does that help? :)
