[BUG] vimball changes global 'modifiable' setting
Opening a vimball in Vim sets 'nomodifiable' not only locally but also
globally: henceforward, all new [No Name] buffers opened in the same session
will be created with 'nomodifiable' set.
Workaround: Use :set modifiable in the first [No Name] buffer created after
opening a vimball.
Fix: See suggested patch, attached.
Best regards,
Tony.

Re: swapfile name
Raphael Bauduin wrote: On 3/16/07, A.J.Mechelynck [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Raphael Bauduin wrote: Hi, When opening a file, is there a way to tell vim which name to use for the swapfile? I'm writing a little vim config file to edit a CMS' content in a DB. Each page has a parts named 'body', which the script makes available through :Radiant edit pages/Home Page/body or, for another page: :Radiant edit pages/Home Page/Articles/First Post/body The problem is that vim is using the same swapfile due to the last part of the path being body in both cases. I see 2 solutions to this problem: either use no swapfile (resetting swapfile), or specify another name for the swapfile, with a preference for the latter. I can specify the directory where to put swapfiles, but can I specify a name for the swapfile? Or can I set a swapfile directory specific to a buffer? Thanks in advance for your help. Raph IIUC, you can't specify the swapfile name; but (again, IIUC) the default is to write the swapfile in the same directory as the editfile: so you would have pages/Home Page/.body.swp and pages/Home Page/Articles/First Post/.body.swp which are different files by virtue of being located in diferent directories. The swapfile used is .body.swp , it doesn't seem to create the directories. I set directory=/tmp/ and the swapfile used is /tmp/body.swp . That's the problem. If you set the swapfile to always be written to a fixed directory, there will be collisions. If 'directory' starts with . (as in the default), Vim will attempt to create the swapfile in the same directory as the editfile. There will be no need to create the directory since it already contains the file you're editing, and for the same reason it should be writable. Remember the path is not the path to a real file, it's a path used by an autocommand to find the data in a db. so, where does your database reside? There is something I don't understand. If your user-commands creates a buffer with a nonexistent path, then maybe the path part of the buffer name should be changed. Raph The advantage of having the swap in the same directory as the editfile, is that it can always be spotted if you try to edit the same file in two instances of Vim at the same time, or to reopen a file which wasn't properly closed because of a crash.

Netrw: open multiple directories on startup
Netrw can have several directories browsing sessions active at once if I open them separately. However, if I use the -o option, like cd /path/to/vimsource//vim70/ vim -o libs runtime src then it does not work as I expect. I get three open buffers, one says Scratch and is the directory listing for the libs/ directory, but the next two buffers are called libs and are blank. If I move into those buffers then each buffer fills out with the same libs/ directory listing. Obviously not what I want - I want three directory browsers each in it's own directory. Is there some way I can make this happen? I apologize if this has been covered before and I missed it. I'm using netrw v108l. thanks gm -- + Gregory H.

I'm also trusting SourceForge's security system to maintain the integrity of the file. Obviously, we could put even more checks in place (like a pgp sig), but at some point this all becomes overly complicated and more overhead than it's worth. Chances are much better that the author would cause damage by unintentionally breaking something anyway. :) -- Steve Hall [ digitect dancingpaper com ]

Steve, if yours are older you sure may want to sync your runtimes. Our installer uses runtimes current as of the build date. I don't have access to the Windows build box ATM to double-check, but it would be nice if third party plug-in authors would keep ftp.vim.org current. Although (in my previous email) I understood that simply file-copying a new version of vimball wouldn't necessarily fix my problem?

But some users omit deleting obsolete files no longer on server when they download the new versions. See further down. Although (in my previous email) I understood that simply file-copying a new version of vimball wouldn't necessarily fix my problem? Does it actually have to be uninstalled, including it's preference file? At one point (I'm not sure when) the netrw plugin was split to take advantage of the new autoload mechanism. The name of the global plugin was also changed from plugin/netrw.vim to plugin/netrwPlugin.vim. I haven't followed the vimball plugin as closely but (looking at the above) the case looks similar. If an old plugin (with the old name) was left behind beside the new one, you're in trouble. Since you have cygwin on your build system (don't you?), maybe you could use a cygwin version of rsync to synchronise the runtime/ sibling of your src/ directory from the Vim server *with delete* to ensure that obsolete files are removed? Of course, I don't know how to set the nullsoft installer to check for obsolete files which must be removed if present. Maybe any $VIMRUNTIME/*.vim not in the installer's embedded archive? The command I use is: rsync -avzcP --delete --exclude=/dos/ ftp.nluug.nl::Vim/runtime/ ./runtime/ Best regards, Tony. -- I get up each morning, gather my wits. Pick up the paper, read the obits.
