EDIT: I made a [Github project](https://github.com/stevenschmatz/did) which adds a few niceties to this blog post, like better dates, no date duplication, and syntax highlighting in Markdown.

---

If you want syntax highlighting and better dates, you can use a Markdown file with the following command:

``` vim +'normal Go' +'r!date +"\# \%B \%d, \%Y (\%A)"' ~/did.md ```

Make sure to turn `syntax: on` in your `.vimrc`.
