With Windows (using XP) the problem is far nastier. Simply opening a file with that name: gvim "foo ~ foo" causes problems. Specifically, I receive the following message: E303: Unable to open swap file for "foo C:\Documents and Settings\Bill foo", recovery impossible Notice how the '~' is expanded. In my environment: HOMEDRIVE=C: HOMEPATH=\Documents and Settings\Bill -- Best regards, Bill --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
