Now that my primary issue of getting Windows Explorer to use gvim to open

they do not get confused...
My eyes are not what they once were, and I use a high-res monitor. I don't
want to decrease my screen res as I am used to all the real estate I need
to keep multiple things going at once :) but I need to increase the default
font size for my program files in gvim. I need a line for _vimrc, I suppose,
that will set the default font to Lucida Console and 14pt.
Select your font to your liking via Edit -> Select Font...
Once you're done, do
:echo &guifont
Copy what you see to set the option 'guifont' (see ":help 'guifont'").
It'd probably look something like
:set guifont=Lucida\ 14
(spaces are escaped with backslashes)
You can place this in your vimrc.
Thank you very much. For any that are interested, the exact line for my _vimrc
is
set guifont=Lucida_Console:h14:cANSI
It works perfectly! :)
