Hi, I have uploaded a context compiler plugin for vim at http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1925. With this, you can do :make filename (which can often be shortened to :mak %) and, if there are errors in the file :cl will show the list of errors. You can jump to the next or previous error with :cn and :cp. If there is no error, :cl will display the number of pages of pdf output and the time taken by texexec. See :he quickfix for more details on using compiler plugins in vim. Aditya
