vim automated replacement

Question

Hello,

I have an automatic replacement done by my vim setup, which systematically replaces all occurences of "sql" in command line by "SQL".

So when I type: :e myfile.sql it is translated in :e myfile.SQL

and when I search /sql it is tranlasted in /SQL

There's probably some parameters in the .vimrc, or some file sourced by .vimrc that generates this behaviour (I do not have control of everything that the .vimrc does since there's some amount of corporate .vimrc involved here), but I find myself unable to localize the part of setup that does this, or to desactivate it retroactively.

Can somebody who knows vim well help? I have vim 7.1, running on Linux

Thanks

Answer 1

cmap sql SQL

maybe?

Answer 2

Probably an abbreviation set as follows:

abbrev sql SQL

The Vim documentation tells you how to determine the last location where an abbreviation was defined:

:abbreviate-verbose

When 'verbose' is non-zero, listing an abbreviation will also display where it was last defined. Example:

:verbose abbreviate
!  teh   the
 Last set from /home/abcd/vim/abbr.vim

So typing :verbose abbreviate should help you locate the SQL abbreviation.
