Sorry for duplicates (mailserver problems. Was: "Re: gvim invalid expression error")
Sorry for the duplicate emails...my mailserver was giving me fits telling me that it hadn't sent, yet was apparently not so truthful. -tim
Re: gvim invalid expression error
"Scanning tags. E15: Invalid expression: substitute(v:fname,'s$','','g')substitute(v:fname,'s$','','g')" i get this error only in gvim. vim7 and vim6.3 work fine. I suspect your gvimrc loads something that causes the problem. It seems odd that the problem would only occur in gvim, but not be present in "non-g"vim. Things to check: -check for mappings in gvim that might be intruding on your "[I" :map -take a look in your gvimrc file(s) (both in your ~/.gvimrc and possibly your /etc/gvimrc to see if there's something funky in there. You'd be looking for things in there that aren't particularly GUI-related. -I presume it works just fine if you start vim with gvim -u NONE file1.txt file2.txt ... -compare the output of ":scriptnames" between your vim and gvim runs to see which scripts are loading. -ensure that you're starting vim with the same list of files each time. Just a few ideas for troubleshooting. The results of the above tests will help narrow downwhere the problem resides. -tim
