OK, I found a not so elegant solution:
evalstr= "feedkeys(':py3 subprocess.Popen([''wmctrl'', ''-a'', ''"
+"GIF testing"+ "''], shell=False)' . " + '"\")'
vim.eval(evalstr)
When in doubt, feedkeys.

What is supposed to happen is that the package directory is added just after the entry in 'runtimepath' where it that package was found. For example, the 'rtp' starts as: ~/.vim,/usr/lib/vim/vim74/runtime,~/.vim/after And when finding the matchit plugin it becomes: ~/.vim,/usr/lib/vim/vim74/runtime,/usr/lib/vim/vim74/runtime/pack/dist/opt/matchit,~/.vim/after Or when finding a package under ~/.vim: ~/.vim,~/.vim/pack/my/start/demo,/usr/lib/vim/vim74/runtime,~/.vim/after Can you give a small example of what you are doing and what you see happens? -- Although the scythe isn't pre-eminent among the weapons of war, anyone who has been on the wrong end of, say, a peasants' revolt will know that in skilled hands it is fearsome. -- (Terry Pratchett, Mort) /// Bram Moolenaar -- b...@moolenaar.net -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ ///sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ an exciting new programming language -- http://www.Zimbu.org/// \\\help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org/// -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.

Settings the starting line for multiple buffers
Greetings to all, When I use vim for multiple files, they are placed in the buffer. Not all the buffers are at "line 1", instead, they seem to be in various other places that I am not sure why that is, as shown in the attached screen shot. Is there a way to set all the buffers to start at "Line 1", or at a place of my choosing? Thank you -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!

If you're looking to match tabs, that would be "\t". The case does make a difference. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!

horizontal range, kindof
I'm trying to do a substitution in a 'horizontal/virtual column range'. I have an ASCII table where the columns are separated by tab characters (for now). I want to wrap the contents (which contain space (U+0020) and \S characters, being of unequal length of course!) of some specific table columns in asterisks (think Markdown emphasis). I thought I could use a range and \%v to match the text between two screen virtual columns and then use an expression with substitute() to wrap instances of \T\+ inside the matched screen column range, something like 'a,'b s/\%13v.*\%46v/\=substitute(submatch(0),'\T\+','*&*','g')/ but apparently I've misunderstood \%v because I get no match. So what is the right way to do this? I'm not looking forward to changing three columns on some 70 lines manually! /bpj -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!

How to make gvim ignore the TERM signal ?
I'm using gvim as the user interface for my own application largely written in
python, and I'm firing up matplotlib windows through vim's python interface to
do data visualization and graphical operation, here I have an issue: I'm using
Ubuntu 14.04 with Unity as the desktop environment, and only by the first time
triggering will Unity bring the new matplotlib window on top of my gvim window,
after the first time, Unity will only give me a notice in the launching area,
and I have to manually switch to the newly created matplotlib window.
I'm using PyQT4 as the backend inside matplotlib, here is the demo code:
nnoremap\t :py3 test_graphical_interface()
python3 << EOF
import matplotlib
matplotlib.use("Qt4Agg", warn=True)
import matplotlib.pyplot as pyplot
from PyQt4 import QtGui, QtCore
def test_graphical_interface():
fig= pyplot.figure( \
figsize= (3.0, 3.0), \
dpi= 300, \
facecolor= '#ffc0cb', \
edgecolor= '#ffc0cb', \
linewidth= 1.0
)
ax= fig.add_axes((0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8), axis_bgcolor='black')
manager= pyplot.get_current_fig_manager()
manager.window.setWindowTitle('GIF testing')
manager.window.showMaximized() # XXX: show up the graphical
window
EOF
The following code I found online was also tried, yet it has no effect.
manager.window.setWindowState(
manager.window.windowState() & \
~QtCore.Qt.WindowMinimized | \
QtCore.Qt.WindowActive
)
manager.window.setWindowFlags(
manager.window.windowFlags() & \
QtCore.Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint
)
manager.window.setWindowFlags(
manager.window.windowFlags() & \
~QtCore.Qt.WindowStaysOnTopHint
)
manager.window.raise_()
manager.window.activateWindow()
I realized this issue was in line with Unity's behaviour, like when you open up
multiple image files with eog the viewer, only the first time opening will
bring up the eog window, later opening up will only gives you notice in the
launching area and Unity will not bring up new windows (having the new windows
minimized and hidden below).
After some try I realized two consecutive calls of window.show() will always
bring up the window to the front as desired:
manager.window.showNormal()
manager.window.showMaximized()
but a new problem occurred, when the matplotlib window is closed, gvim window
will be closed as well, it looks like each call of the show() function will be
registered, such that corresponding numbers of TERM signal will be generated
later, first signal kills the graphical window, the second kills gvim.
There are 3 options I can think of trying to solve the issue:
1. try to make gvim ignore the TERM signal, such that it can only be
quitted by commands like :qall
2. try to alter the behaviour of Unity into always bringing up the new
app windows to the top
3. keep trying within the Qt frame, like more methods of the
manager.window object to see if a solution can be found
Can someone enlighten me as to which option I should try with the most
likelihood of success? Thanks.
