description
This script provides some convenience when editing XML (and some SGML including HTML) formated documents. It allows you to jump to the beginning or end of the tag block your cursor is in. '%' will jump between '<' and '>' within the tag your cursor is in. When in insert mode and you finish a tag (pressing '>') the tag will be completed. If you press '>' twice it will complete the tag and place the cursor in the middle of the tags on it's own line.

install details
This new version has the documentation coupled with the script. You only need one file xml.vim. Place this file in your ftplugin directory (i.e. '~/.vim/ftplugin/xml.vim) Type :help ftplugins for more information on installation. The documentation will install automatically the first time the plugin is ran. *NOTE* the first time the plugin is ran is NOT the first time VIM is ran. Because this is a file plugin you have to open an XML document to execute the script. So open a new test.xml file at first. The html.vim script that came with the old tarball is now in the documentation as an example. to use it just copy/paste it into the file html.vim. See :help xml-plugin-html after the documentation installs. ChangeLog and older versions availiable on request.
