Maybe I used "global" incorrectly. here is my setup: " quickfix window augroup quickfix " Prevent making duplicate autocommands autocmd! "autocmd Filetype qf setlocal cursorline autocmd Filetype qf set cursorline autocmd Filetype qf nnoremap <buffer> p <CR><C-w>p augroup END no matter if I use autocmd Filetype qf set cursorline or autocmd Filetype qf setlocal cursorline in the augroup quickfix the cursorline only shows in the lower quickfix window. I would like a cursorline remains on the match in the upper file window when the <c- w>p jumps back to quickfix window, or else it is difficult for me to see where the match is in the upper window. or even better if the match in the upper window is highlighted like I do a / search, but I doubt it is easy to do that. I don't need cursorline when I do normal editing. Thank you and sorry for the confusion. Jim -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
