Vim Zen-coding expansion for slim and haml templating languages

After installing the vim-zencoding plugin, drop this in your ~/.vimrc:

let g:user_zen_settings = {
\  'haml': {                                                                    
\    'extends': 'html',
\   },
\  'slim': {
\    'extends': 'html',
\   },
\}

(Note that the \ are required)

And then, open a .slim file and type this:

html:5

And in insert mode, hit <ctrl-y>,. (Control + y, and a comma). Boom.

( Works if you haven't changed your default key-map )

In case you feel hitting <ctrl-y> is too clumsy, you could remap that using:

let g:user_zen_leader_key='<c-e>'

With this setting inside your ~/.vimrc, you can achieve the expansion using <ctrl-e>, (Control + e, and a comma)
