Thanks for the clarification. I think this behaviour can't be avoided..
In your example, when you go 22j you end up on line 23 in the old file. The cursorbind code asks Vim for the corresponding line in the new file, and since the line no longer exists the "corresponding line" is returned as the one after the deleted block. Since Vim does not allow the cursor to journey outside the window, this causes the "new" window to jump up a few lines. The "old" window won't also jump to compensate since it's the active window. I worry that making the old window adjust its position after adjusting the cursor in the slave windows could lead to strange infinite loop situations....

After executing the above command :windo verbose setlocal cursorbind? shows cursorbind cursorbind If you replace the -d flag with -O, the :windo command shows nocursorbind nocursorbind With the attached files you can also reproduce the behaviour mentioned in my first mail. It seems so=99 is not necessary for this, just run gvim -d -u NONE old-version.txt new-version.txt and enter 22j The cursor is now on the last line in the left window ("these lines") and the right window has been scrolled upwards by two lines, showing the missing lines (represented by dashes) above the corresponding block of the left window. This does not happen if cursorbind is reset in at least one of the windows.
