While writing a guitabtooltip function, I discovered that the tooltips in Win32 don't properly handle backslash-escaped chars. In particular, '\n' comes out as a box, and '\t' appears to terminate the string like '\0'.
The GTK gui on Linux, however, works as expected. I have attached a sample .gvimrc-like start-up script which illustrates the problem. When gvim is invoked like so: gvim -u NONE -U guitab.vim two unnamed gui tabs are displayed. When you hover over them, you should see a tooltip window that looks something like this: +------+ |1 | |2 3| |4 | +------+ In the Win32 gui, it looks like this instead: 1<box>2 Regards, Erik -- Registered Linux User #445632 http://counter.li.org --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
