You should be able to resize the window after setting 'guioptions' with set guioptions=aeik set lines=45 There is a corresponding 'columns' option too, so you might be able to put set columns=80 lines=45 in your vimrc after setting 'guioptions' and then you wouldn't need the "-geom" flag in your alias anymore. (If you want different window sizes in different situations, though, maybe this wouldn't make sense.) HTH, Benjamin -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
