I don't know of anything that works that way, but it should be that hard. Eclipse is good about things like that. Just make a hotkey or something that will run gvim -c :line number or something like that. Eclipse often makes such variables for things like that. I don't know off hand though. -fREW

I am pretty sure you can set it up in the setting somewhere. It ends up with you right-clicking the file and then clicking open with gvim in the menu. -fREW
