[Bug 335966] Re: Tab-complete returns ^I instead of file path
This behavior is intentional. You should use :e to open files. :o only exists to appease POSIX compliance as a vi-clone. If you are getting the ^I character when tab-completing :e or :w, then you have the 'compatible' option set or the 'wildchar' option is not set to Tab. ** Changed in: vim (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Invalid -- Tab-complete returns ^I instead of file path https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335966 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 335966] Re: Tab-complete returns ^I instead of file path
Do you get this with :e, :w, and so on, or only with :o? Quoting the documentation for :o: Vim does not support open mode, since it's not really useful. -- Tab-complete returns ^I instead of file path https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335966 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 335966] Re: Tab-complete returns ^I instead of file path
My apologies - this is in Ubuntu 8.10 (so Intrepid). I also read the recent update wrong and it was not for Vim. Nonetheless, not sure why this might be happening.
