Thanks. But is there any way to do this without populating the ~/.vim directory? On Debian it works by default. Why does not it work like that on Redhat as well? BTW, on Redhat machine when I did :so ~/myroot/share/vim/vim70/macros/matchit.vim then % works fine. I wonder how it is automatically sourced in Debian and why it was not on Redhat. On both machines VIMRUNTIME is same. i.e. on Debian, :echo $VIMRUNTIME results in /usr/share/vim/vim70 and on Redhat it points to ~/myroot/share/vim/vim70. So where is the difference coming from? Do I need to do something while compiling vim? thanks raju -- Kamaraju S Kusumanchi http://www.people.cornell.edu/pages/kk288/ http://malayamaarutham.blogspot.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Click for military loan, fast & no lender fee, approval today http://tags.bluebottle.com/fc/KCuXzzVQE7eN42p3qzqKSbDeHasRgh/
