This works well to open files from the command line: alias mvim='open -a macvim "$@"' To have Finder open files with double click: - find a file of the type (extension) you want to open in Finder - in Finder highlight the file - use "Finder > File > Get Info" --or-- command+I - click the triangle next to "Open With" - select MacVim, you may need to navigate using "Other..." - finally select "Change All" Then all files with that same extension will open with MacVim -Bill -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
