OK I succeed to open the file in the servername foo with your indication. I didn't understood that I had to keep the vim server opened somewhere and launch the file in another terminal then. I checked that my swap directory was empty before launching test.ly in servermode. I also checked with :echo v:servername and it returns the name FOO. So I guess I'm good to go, but when I launch the PDF with F6, click on a link, then again, vim react with: 1. first: lilypond-invoke-editor (GNU LilyPond) 2.19.82 Processing " Documents/test/test.ly" Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal 2. then it suddently shows the swap error prompt E325 because the swap file already exists. About the PDF command, I use F6. I found in /usr/share/vim/vimfiles/ftplugin/lilypond.vim that some shortcuts were mapped. I just changed F6 (default ghostview) with: map <buffer> <F6> :!zathura "%<.pdf" &<Return> And again, what is strange is that I have to launch zathura through vim if I want it to react to the link. If I launch the PDF alone in Zathura and click on the link, for instance textedit:///home/remy/Documents/test/test.ly:5:4:5 goes directly to the browser. Maybe zathura isn't configured properly and should add xdg-open before the link? Federico Bruni-2 wrote > You gave confusing information.

I know I gave confusing information! That's the reason I tried the same things with and without installing lilypond-invoke-editor.desktop to be sure on how interpreting the fact that it still didn't work properly. BTW I'm a bit surprised, has nobody yet tried to make vim a good environment for LP and set-up this P&C thing? -- Sent from: http://lilypond.1069038.n5.nabble.com/User-f3.html _______________________________________________ lilypond-user mailing list lilypond-user@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-user
