Hey Greg Reagle,

Actually I want to thank you about mentioning tcvt. I know this feature
form Emacs follow-mode and I used it, and I really want to use it outside
Emacs.

So yeah I know about it and didn't know if I could use it without emacs,
But talking about vim, I searched about "vim follow-mode" and I found
a buggy way to do it qhich didn't make me happy now make me re-use
it again
