I mistated "logs one and only one file". Should have
written "loads one and only one file". I have solved
it by
1)run vim --help
2)take note of the --noplugin switch and invoked vim
with that switch. Loaded normally.
3)Surveyed my .vim directory looking at plugin and
ftpplugin directories, saw a session.vim file in
the ~/.vim/plugin directory and deleted it.
that solved the problem.
However, since I depend on vim so much and :-) and am
called on to trouble-shoot vim so seldom, I'd welcome
comments and links to a "In case of Emergency" site(s)
for vim if such exists. Or a list of "vim gotchas"
cheers
