Started the UCI Objective-C Coursera course this morning; intro videos seem reasonably well-put together, as one would expect from Coursera. It’s on-demand, which is good. I do wish there were other Obj-C courses available. I guess it’s not too surprizing given that Swift if the “new” hotness for iOS development. #

Trying to figure out how to use a vim macro to handle portions of paragraph linking. I’d like to figure out how to yank the day/paragraph link id to a register and then use that in a macro. I’m part of the way there, but still have some details to work out, namely:

1. how to yank the pattern I want. I was using daynum-paragraphnum ("9-1") but vim doesn’t recognize that as a word. Maybe I’ll have to go to daynumparagraphnum (91) instead.
2. how to drop the contents of a registry into a macro. I’m using ^R" for the most recent yank, but that doesn’t seem to work. #

Let’s test my new macro, [#](#a^R"){:#a^R"}^[. #

Revision: bdwa [#](#a^R"){:#a^R"}^[. #

Oh yeah, baby, that’s a winner! I’ll have to write that one up in more detail. #
