It looks like it might take a script to do this. I would need to check if any open gvim window contains the tag being searched for. If so, I would make that window active and jump to the tag. If not and the tag reference exists, I would open a new gvim window at the tag location.
Anyone have suggestions as to how to do this? Or know of a script that does something similar to this? --Bill > On 2007-03-23, "Waters, Bill" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > This gets me close to what I want... > > nnoremap <2-LeftMouse> :!start gvim -t <cword><CR> > > The only problem is that it will start up a new gvim even if the tag is in > the file that I started from.
