Link to MetaCPAN.org instead of search.cpan.org. MetaCPAN is the community-maintained web portal to CPAN, while search.cpan.org is the historic but proprietary one.

A simple vim plugin created by me. Hope it can help formula authors who use vim.

I feel like we’re probably fighting a losing battle here, but here’s a
bundle more updates to the example formula to cover some ground not
already covered.

* Moved the `pip` homepage to something that points more directly at
`pip`.
* Adds a note on `test do`. All the maintainers and the bot check the
existence of such things these days, but I guess if anyone stumbles
across the document it’s useful to say.
* GiX is formally dead, and has two blessed forks.
* Typo on contributor.

`brew-gem`'s link is 404.
`brew-pip` has reached EOL.
Thus I updates the link of `brew-gem`, and remove descriptions
about `brew-pip`.
Thanks @DomT4 for pointing out brew-gem's new home.

How-to-use-keg-only-outside-of-brew:
* A new piece of documentation detailing how to deal with using
keg_only formula outside of Brew itself. We’ve had a lot of questions
and issues about this recently, and the solutions aren’t as easy and
explicit to find elsewhere, so detailing it here may help reduce some
of the questions we’ve seen recently.
* I possibly whinged too much in the second section. I’m open to
criticism and being called whiny.
* Details flags, prepending the $PATH, and dealing with pkg-config.

More proposed documentation updates.
Acceptable Formulae:
* Adds Perl to the list of stuff we offer Dupes of in the Core.
* Notes that OS X’s OpenSSL is usually horribly outdated.
* Removes the incorrect space between font and forge.
Common Issues:
* We said three issues, we listed four. Oops.
External Commands:
* The cache is usually at /Library rather than ~/Library, and the rest
of the documentation says /Library, so this makes the referencing
consistent.
FAQ:
* Adds a tiny section on pinning formulae.
Interesting-Taps-And-Branches:
* Notes gaming-emulation software belongs in Homebrew/Games as well.
* nolith/Embedded hasn’t been touched for 28 months. I’ve cut it.
* anarchivist/forensics hasn’t been touched for 35 months. I’ve cut it.
* codebutler’s GTK+ experiment seems to have been terminated after one
commit. I’ve cut it.
* paxam/linux hasn’t been touched for 34 months. I’ve cut it.
* rmyers/homebrew hasn’t been touched in 42 months. I’ve cut it.
* nddrylliog/winbrew has moved, I’ve changed the URL to the new one.
Winbrew.md:
* Removed. It’s referenced in the prior file, and doesn’t really need
its own.
