I couldn't find a good answer for this question so I figured I'd ask. I'd really like to find some man pages for javascript for use within VIM. This way I could place my cursor over a method or global object and press K in command mode to open up information related to this javascript item. Obviously there is no official javascript manual as it varies from browser to browser, but I was hoping there might be something like this. I'm working exclusively with google chrome which I have heard essentially implements ECMAScript 5, so the manuals that are closest to this would be preferable. As a side note, I've seen that there are some chm's but I'm not aware if I can use the 'man' command to navigate these. Is what I'm asking for possible (and in existence), and if so where can I find it? Thanks!

  • I don't think such a thing exists. The closest would be a function that opens a web browser at the MDN page corresponding to the current word. Hmmm… it doesn't look like a hard task… Not something I can do ATM, though. Commented Mar 26, 2012 at 5:39

I guess doctorjs is what you're searching for, and you need ctag & taglist first.
