# user_tips.vim
This plugin provide two public functions
- `user_tips#current()`: shows registered tip (random on `VimEnter`)
- `user_tips#edit()`: opens file for modifying your tips
## Usage
You can show it in statusline (e. g. mine, the relevant part is `%2*»·%{user_tips#current()}%*`):
```vim
execute 'hi! User2 ctermbg='.synIDattr(synIDtrans(hlID('StatusLine')), 'bg').' ctermfg=grey'
set laststatus=2 " Show status line on startup
set statusline+=··%1*≡·%{QuickFixStatus()}%*··%2*»·%{user_tips#current()}%*··%=
set statusline+=%<%f%R\%M··▶·%{&fileformat}·%{&fileencoding?&fileencoding:&encoding}·%{&filetype}··∷·%{mini_sessions#name('–')}··
```
… leads to:
… for editing use for example:
```vim
nnoremap :call user_tips#edit()
```
