Hello fellow Vimmers,
Can any of you that work on Windows tell me how you handle filename
completion (C-X C-F) for paths that contain spaces? I love this
completion method, but as soon as I get to C:\Document and Settings\,
it "stops working", because of course a space character is not in
'isfna
Perfect! Thanks!

Can anyone recommend any nice shortcuts for entering common long paths
on the commandline? My situation: I am running on Windows XP and
often end up typing :e c:/Documents\ and\
Settings/User/Desktop/foo/bar/... I currently use Tab/completion to
get each path element, but this is still very slow
I figured it might be worthwhile for me to post my results for
posterity, now that I've whittled out a comfortable setup, in light of
how non-trivial and full of pitfalls I found it. Hopefully this may
be of use to another hapless soul on WinXP (or, for that matter, for
myself, should the unthink

Thanks to Hari's post earlier, I now believe so, yes.
This now scans other files sooner than in

You are probably talking about the insert-mode completion rather than

Ahhh, I see, yes, I think you're right.

I'm using Vim 7.0 on WinXP SP2. I don't think I did anything specific
to turn on omni-completion (perhaps it's on by default? I'm editing
Python files), and I'm in no rush to start using it, although if it
was non-intrusive I wouldn't mind leaving it on. The problem is that

Thanks for a meaty reply Tony, plenty for me to read up on.
Just one minor related issue: what is the convention of handling "~"
in Vim under Windows? The problem is that under WinXP, when I use
$HOME in Vim, it gets translated to "~" (i.e., the Unix convention for
home directory), rather than t
I'm under Windows XP, and I'm having a devil of a time trying to set
'path' to a bunch of directories in my home directory. My $HOME (and
thus presumably "~") point at c:\Documents and Settings\User\My

I've created a seperate thread for this issue, even though I discussed
it briefly earlier, as I've done some testing and it seems this may be
a Vim bug.
