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?
Best Regards,
Andy
: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.
Tony -- have you heard the phrase, "Give a man a fish and you feed him
for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime"?
I was attempting to "teach the man to fish".

Chip Campbell
Aha. And what do you do when no fish bites on the kind of fishline you
taught him to use?
Best regards,
Tony.
P.S. I was also trying to "teach him to fish", namely, by paying
attention to what he's been told. Let's hope he will, in the future.
Best regards,
Tony.
