Right now I open archives in my browser (localhost) with the follow line: :! start "http://localhost" file:///"%:p""<CR>. It is possible to tell Vim: Open Firefox and hit refresh? (I don't want to refresh the current document I'm editing in Vim because if I open, for instance, the current CSS, the results won't show up in the browser. ...
I have to add a VIM personality to an IDE. I never used VIM for more than the most basic edits and i'm now overwhelmed by the complexity of the command structure. Is there any overall structure for the combination of counts moves and insert/delete commands? I just can't see the wood for the trees. ...
There are small lines appearing sometimes in front of words. In the pictures they are to the right of +syntax/ and swo and delmenu.vim. Is this a bug or those lines mean something? Do this happened to you before? Would they get worse in the future? PS: I'm using Microsoft Windows XP SP2 AMD EDIT: I change the font to Consolas and ...
I am trying to use HG (Mercurial) with the Vim VCScommand plugin, but am running into a problem "Too many matching VCS: git HG". I removed the vcsgit.vim and the HG binding seemed to work. I thought VCScommand used the folder to determine, which VCS one was using. I guess this is a flawed assumption. ...
Not much else to ask. ...
Does gVim store files (specially preferences) in other directories rather than Program Files (for instance in %apps% like emacs)? If not, can I carry gVim in a USB frashdrive? (There's a portable version of Vim, but since it doesn't store anything in other folders I can't figure out it needs a portable version). ...
Every time I add a selector in CSS and I press Enter to define the properties it ends up like this: #selector { property: value; } (8 tabs) How can I configure gVim to make it like this: #selector { property: value; } (4 tabs) ...
I am trying vim's python omni-completion script, it works, but I got problem. After I start vim, the 1st time I press to ask vim to complete python code, many warning shown up. That's because some python libs in my project use md5, which will trigger a warning message in python 2.6 That's very ignoring, how to stop vim/python from is...
I now have a solution to this question, which leads me to the next question: how do I run "xmllint --noent" to all .xml files when opening them in vim. I have an example to do --decrypt on load and --encrypt on save for .gpg in my .vimrc, but it is so complicated that I cannot really figure the relevant parts. My latest attempt is: aut...
Omnicompletion works pressing <C-X><C-O> making a dropdown list appear. I wanted to map it as <S-Tab> <C-X><C-O> but first I wanted to test it as: <C-F5> <C-X><C-O>. It does complete the word but the dropdown list doesn't show up. (the same happens with the plugin SuperTab). Any suggestions? EDIT: *it Works* like this inoremap <S-F5> <...
Apologies but I am new to the whole UNIX/Mac command line. I have MacVim installed and I am trying to set it up as the editor for Git (version control). But I can't run 'mvim' from the command line as it isn't recognised. I don't see an option in MacVim to do this for me. I am guessing I need to edit a PATH variable on the Mac? ...

Background: It seems that some text editors and IDEs are starting to get more "browser-like" in their features. Specifically, one such feature is the ability to treat ordinary text in an open text buffer as a hyperlink to another file, resource, or even a runnable command. Programming this as an editor plugin or macro Since this seems...
My vim used to auto-continue comments in php. For example: /* | <- cursor here Then, pressing Enter gives me: /* * | <- cursor here and again, gives me: /* * * | <- cursor here etc... As far as I understand it, this is controlled by the comments and formatoptions options. However, whenever I open a php file now, comments ...
I want to define a mapping in my .gvimrc such that if the last key pressed is held, the triggered action is repeated. Specifically, I want to do something like map <SPACE>t :set transparency-=1 map <SPACE>T :set transparency+=1 for MacVim, but I want the transparency to continue to be decreased/increased when t/T are held (don't want ...
Hi, In normal mode (in vim) if the cursor is on a number, hitting Ctrl-A increments the number by 1. Now I want to do the same thing, but from the commandline. Specifically, I want to go to certain lines whose first character is a number, and increment it. i.e. I want to run the following command: :g/searchString/ Ctrl-A I tried...
Hey. Whenever I want to add a comment to an indented line in vim, I click shift-o (open a new row above the current, switch to insert mode) and start typing a python comment (using #). That hash is then magically moved to the start of the line (no indentation) and I have to click tab a few times. Anyone know how to work around it? ...
