'titlestring' is a 'statusline'-like option. If you want a specific

endif

I tried to use :help %F, %y,... to find the definition above with no
luck.
And by experiment I see %F shows ~/c/d/e.v,   %f shows ./c/d/e.v  if I
opened e.v  inside a utility called SOS.
1.
Would anyone please advise me where can I find all those %x
definition in
gvim?
2.
I modified above example to: set title titlestring=%{$PWD}/%f     and it
works in titlebar.
The thing is that it shows   "/a/b/c/d/e.v"    where e.v is the file
name.
How can I show     "e.v    /a/b/c/d"  in titlebar?

:help titlestring
   When this option contains printf-style '%' items,
   they will be expanded according to the rules used for 'statusline'.

:help statusline

Additionally, when one is perplexed about finding help for something in
Vim's help pages, use helpgrep.  Applied to your question:

   :helpgrep %F
   :cope

would've pointed you in the right direction.

In this case, the only uses of %F in the help are in an example under 'titlestring' and in a TODO item.

Bee's reply, and the line where I said earlier that 'titlestring' is a 'statusline'-like option, should have pointed Andy the help for 'statusline', where it is explained first that there can be printf-style % items in the value of that option, and lower down (about one page down with my 'guifont' in a maximized gvim) there is a list of possible items. For %F, the relevant line is:

        F S   Full path to the file in the buffer.

and its meaning is explained in the help text that comes above it.


Best regards,
Tony.
