I had netrw in my plugin directory for use with 6.3 Vim. Now, how do I make sure I can use the same plugin directory for both 6.3 and 7.0? I think the g:loaded_xxx variable should be different for these two so that we can control them independently. Since it took the role of explorer plugin in 7.0, how about using the loaded_explorer instead of loaded_netrw in 7.0 (unless there is a better solution)? -- Thanks, Hari __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
