Use :tab :help. You could possibly wrap this into a mapping or command like for example: :com -nargs=? -complete=help Help :tab :help <args> > 1) How can I set it so that buffers like TagList open in vertical > buffers instead of horizontal? not sure. You can probably configure TagList to do this for you. > 2) Is there a way to limit the amount of blank lines Vim puts at the > end of files?

Could be a plugin or your .vimrc to interfere. Are you sourcing vimrc_example.vim file? I believe this file enables last-position-jump (see :h last-position-jump). If not, you'll need to debug this by starting a vim without loading your .vimrc or plugins. Start by executing vim without reading any initialization file or plugin. ~$ vim -u NONE -N If this works okay, try sourcing only plugins but skip your .vimrc file: ~$ vim -u NORC -N And if this is ok, you might want to start commenting out parts of your vimrc, as this seems to be the culprit. regards, Christian --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
