Right, the -s switch inhibits initialization as the help entry says. So you can get rid of the -s at the expense of seeing more messages, or you can keep the -s switch and load your plugins another way, e.g. (untested), vim -N -E -s --cmd 'runtime plugin/vimballPlugin.vim' -c '%MkVimball vcscommand-repack' -c q Regards, Gary -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
