Hi,

The first public release of VimMate (version 0.6.0) is out.

VimMate is a graphical add-on to Vim with IDE-like features: it does  
more  
than the plain Vim while still being lightweight. Even with the  
additional  
features, it stays out of the way for its main task: editing files with  
Vim.  
VimMate adds functionality to Vim by embedding Vim GTK GUI (gVim) within  
VimMate.

See [http://vimmate.rubyforge.org/](http://vimmate.rubyforge.org/) for more information.

Comments will be greatly appreciated since it’s my first time releasing  
one  
of my programs to the public. If you find any bugs or if you have  
suggestions, please use the tracker on Rubyforge:
