Hi all-

I use Vim 7 both on Windows and a Mac (in gui mode) and Linux (console
mode) and I've noticed that all versions I have, except the Mac one,
keeps a command history from previous instances. That is, if I type :
and then up-arrow, I can see commands that I've previously entered
even though I just started Vim.

The Mac does keep a command line history of the current instance, but
loses it when Vim is shut down. Is there a setting I can check to see
how to set this?

Thanks,

Ron

Best regards,
