"vim" is located in /usr/bin and is actually symlink to /etc/alternatives/vim, and that is in turn a symlink to /usr/bin/gvim.exe. The problem is that Windows-native programs don't know about Cygwin symlinks. You'll need to configure p4 to run the gvim.exe file rather than the vim symlink. -Jeremy -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
