vimrc for nagios

I use nagios to monitor servers. It’s great. I just thought I would share a quick snippet that I just put in my vimrc. It sorts the servers listed in host_name lines so they are in alphabetical order. Put the following in your vimrc, move your cursor over a host_name line and hit F2 and it will sort the server list.

map #2 V:! sed 's/host_name//' \| sed 's/[ \t]//g' \| tr ',' '\n' \| sort \| uniq \| xargs \| sed 's/ /, /g' \| sed 's/^/\thost_name\t\t\t/'
