" Overview
" --------
" You can use the scratch plugin to create a temporary scratch buffer to store
" and edit text that will be discarded when you quit/exit vim. The contents
" of the scratch buffer are not saved/stored in a file.
"
" Installation
" ------------
" 1. Copy the scratch.vim plugin to the $HOME/.vim/plugin directory. Refer to
"    the following Vim help topics for more information about Vim plugins:
"
"       :help add-plugin
"       :help add-global-plugin
"       :help runtimepath
"
" 2. Restart Vim.
"
" Usage
" -----
" You can use the following command to open/edit the scratch buffer:
"
"       :Scratch
"
" To open the scratch buffer in a new split window, use the following command:
"
"       :Sscratch
"
" When you close the scratch buffer window, the buffer will retain the
" contents. You can again edit the scratch buffer by openeing it using one of
" the above commands. There is no need to save the scatch buffer.
"
" When you quit/exit Vim, the contents of the scratch buffer will be lost.
" You will not be prompted to save the contents of the modified scratch
" buffer.
"
" You can have only one scratch buffer open in a single Vim instance. If the
" current buffer has unsaved modifications, then the scratch buffer will be
" opened in a new window
"
