Or, at least, change this: > let g:netrw_http_xcmd= "-dump >" ==> "-source >" Based on the documentation for g:netrw_http_xcmd, this seems like intentional behavior. It specifically mentions setting g:netrw_http_xcmd to "-source >" if you want to see the source. I do agree that this behavior is inconsistent, though, so I'll push back on upstream to see if they'll make the default behavior consistent among all the supported http commands. -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <[email protected]>
