I'm a Windows man.. and I don't use VIM. Its PSPAD (http://www.pspad.
com) and like many other editors it has a shell to OS and capture 
Stdout facility. (I was interested in how to do this reformatting 
generically. It looks like there is a Prettyprint module within Ruby 
1.8 (its not mentioned in Pickaxe v1), but I don't understand how it 
works.
