macvim dev env update

ok, so i've mentioned that i'm revisiting vim as a dev tool and, quite frankly, i've been impressed with some of the plugins out there. i've been using NERDTree and the grails plugin. NERDTree has been very nice and the grails one is ok.

as i've been watching grails webcasts like bobby warner's jump into grails 2.0, i've been a little jealous of textmate's ability to "find files." so i started searching for a vim plugin to do the same and found command-t. it's pretty cool. as i've mentioned before, i've been doing a few things with keymappings to make macvim act the way my fingers need it to work. i had to add a little magic to my .gvimrc to make it work for me.

macmenu &File.New\ Tab key=<nop>
map <D-t> :CommandT<cr>

now, command + t enables the file finding feature of the command-t plugin.
