The clientserver feature really isn't necessary in Cream/Vim except to support a single session/instance. You could disable the checking in cream-server to see what happens with only minor bugs: o New sessions of Vim will not merge with existing ones, the app will be running multiple times (which some users actually prefer) o Changes to the environment (namely the recent file list and changes to settings and preferences) will be remembered only from the session last closed. There is likely some pretty significant code work to be done on the Mac to get this working...I'm sure if you are able to fix it there will be quite a few users that would appreciate it. -- Steve Hall [ digitect dancingpaper com ] :: Cream... usability for Vim :: http://cream.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
