vi % alternive command

[Matthew D. Wood]

Um...  Not quite, but sort of.

you can use your open lines as a sort of cheat.  for instance '}' should 
move you to the next empty line.  Thus, >} will indent the rest of the 
section you're in.  Unfortunately, it doesn't work as well as you would 
like.

There was a VIM script at :
http://vim.sf.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=30

but I don't think it works like I would like it to.

But that's about it.
