This blog is "powered by" Parasite, which is a PHP/PEAR::DB blog written by yours truly.
On good days, Parasite supports Ian Hickson & Stuar Langridge's Pingback1.0. It hasn't been a good day in a VERY long time and likely never will be again!
The stuff that Parasite doesn't do for me is done in vim.
Being standards compliant is the only attempt this site makes at being IE friendly.

One: Have you heard the news?
Two: No, what's happened?
One: The good Lord has come down in human form and had himself killed!
Two: To what end?
One: With this act, the Devil is hoodwinked and all humanity saved!
Two: Gosh, that's simply lovely.
I wrote a little vim function (my first) that I thought others might find useful. It's a little clunky, but it works :)
function! WebMe()
let s:browser = 'w3m'
let s:prot = 'http://'
let s:ps = '/home/user/public_html/'
let s:dm = '/www/deadman/htdocs/'
let s:sr = '/www/samrowe/htdocs/'
let s:un = '/www/unspeakable/htdocs/'
let s:pslen = strlen(s:ps)
let s:dmlen = strlen(s:dm)
let s:srlen = strlen(s:sr)
let s:unlen = strlen(s:un)
let s:this = expand("%:p")
if s:this =~ strpart(s:ps,0,s:pslen)
let s:domain = 'www.1pof.org/'
let s:that = strpart(s:this,s:pslen)
elseif s:this =~ strpart(s:dm,0,s:dmlen)
let s:domain = 'www.deadman.org/'
let s:that = strpart(s:this,s:dmlen)
elseif s:this =~ strpart(s:sr,0,s:srlen)
let s:domain = 'www.samrowe.com/'
let s:that = strpart(s:this,s:srlen)
elseif s:this =~ strpart(s:un,0,s:unlen)
let s:domain = 'www.unspeakable.net/'
let s:that = strpart(s:this,s:unlen)
else
return
endif
let $webcommand = s:browser .' '. s:prot . s:domain . s:that
!$webcommand
endfunction
map <F2> :call WebMe()<cr>
I have all of that stuff in my ~/.vimrc and basically, it ~intelligently knows which domain to visit to see the file I'm currently editing. Since I almost always edit files that are generated by PHP, I want to view the parsed file, rather than just calling 'w3m myfile.php'.
The clunky part, obviously, is having to create all of those stupid variables, but I couldn't see an easier way to do it in vimscript.
