//     Backbone.Rails.js
//
//     Makes Backbone.js play nicely with the default Rails setup, i.e.,
//     no need to set
//       ActiveRecord::Base.include_root_in_json = false
//     and build all of your models directly from `params` rather than
//     `params[:model]`.
//
//     Load this file after backbone.js and before your application JS.

Moving from TextMate to Vim

Word Completion

I got quite used to TextMate's easy word completion, which is triggered with esc, and shift-esc. You can do something similar in Vim by using the ins-completion feature.

While in insert mode, use ctrl-n to search forward for the next matching word or ctrl-p to search backwards for the next matching line.

Checkout :help ins-completion inside Vim for more details.
