I've got either another data point or just a more minimal example that fails here under Win7: gvim -u NONE -N -c "echo strftime('%R')" I thought the weird quoting was key, based on your example, but it appears the '%R' is all I needed. '%T' also triggers it for me. (And the -U NONE is unnecessary, because -u NONE disables gvimrc, too [learned that on-list a short while back]). gvim --version: (typing by hand -- can't copy-paste from Message boxes): Vim 7.3e BETA MS-Win 32-bit w/ OLE support Compiled by b...@kibaale Big version with GUI. (Possibly of note is that it's 64-bit Windows.) Haven't installed 7.3 proper yet. -- Best, Ben -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
