What is the most useable VI/Vim plugin for Eclipse?

I have seen a few vi plugins for eclipse. Can anyone suggest which one is the best (not buggy, maintained easy to install...)?

Thanks, Marko

    A `vi` plugin for eclipse? Why not just use `vi` ? – Mitch Dempsey May 17 '10 at 21:34

    Because Eclipse is incredibly powerful at analysing your code base, determining dependencies and allowing refactoring. I'm a fan of vi, but it can't really compete with Eclipse in these areas. – Brian Agnew May 17 '10 at 21:35

I have found Vrapper to be the best one. It is free and does a very good job of providing the most important features of vi/Vim. As I have checked a minute ago it is still developed.

I've found viplugin to be sufficiently powerful and robust that I've paid for it. It's not often I would say that!

I used a bunch of them and my definitely favorite is http://viableplugin.com/ . It's not free, but it actually works like real VIM. In Vrapper you can't search and replace properly, and simple commands like capital-P are subtly different.

I'm using both, viable and viplugin and i like both of them. Both are commercial plugins and both are more than just worth the 15 Eruros. Right now I prefer viplugin, as there's a lot of development going on lately (a new version is released once a week).
