> Does anyone even use Vim without plugins anymore?

I use vim for almost 20 years for everything except when I'm developing in java (but even then I use eclipse with a vi plugin).

And no plugins at all.

Which eclipse vi plugin do you use?

I use http://www.viplugin.com/index.htm . It costs 19$ and it is worth it. When it lacks some vim feature -- there is an easy way to invoke the real vim, do some editing there, and then swith to eclipse back.

I tried eclim but it lacked too many eclipse features. It is maybe that I didn't try it enough, but I was (and still am) happy with viplugin to really try something else.

Probably eclim

But eclim lets you get Eclipse features in vim, not vice versa... is there something I'm missing here?

It also allows you to use vim in eclipse when editing a file.
