No problem :-).

Mm.

Yeah, browsefilter would be nice I suppose.  'define' may not so much.

No, that's about it.  His version is in a sense better, as it works fine
while pasting code.  Mine will add extra ends when pasting.  I guess one
could hide it behind some variable, like b:ruby_electric_enter or
something similar.

Well, either with the mouse (yuck), or manually with keys (which is
rather difficult).  Then, when I try to paste in Vim, it takes like 3
seconds for Vim to grab the selection and actually insert it.  Very
weird.  No such problem with plain Firefox,
