I can't change the font in vim7.1!
I just upgraded to 7.1, and now when I open up a gvim session, I get this huge monospaced font that I can't change. If I type: :set guifont? it returns 7x14 which is what I set it to, but it isn't what is displayed. If I change the setting to *any* other font that is valid for my system, the display doesn't change, although the guifont setting shows that it is set to the new value. Help!

RE: I can't change the font in vim7.1!
Okay. I've found a clue to my problem. I'm on a kde system, and I'm obtaining a list of valid fonts with the xlsfonts command. I don't know much about how the kde gui works, bit it appears that the xlsfonts command and kde are incompatible. Now to figure out how to get a list of kde fonts.

new text object feature request
I often need to replace parameter text and usually try to remember the text object that selects the inner parameter, only to come up short since that type isn't defined. It seems natural to have a parameter text object, where it would act on the text between commas or parentheses, i.e. from (, to ,). What say you? Something worthy of the todo list? David
RE: new text object feature request
Hi Peter,
It can (see below), but then again, the other text objects could be
implemented as vimscript as well. Extending the existing text objects to
include parameters seems like a natural fit.
David
nmap silent cim :call ChangeInnerParam()cr
function ChangeInnerParam()
call s:selectInnerParam()
normal x
startinsert
endfunction
function s:selectInnerParam()
call search('[(,]', bW)
normal lv
call search('[(,)]', W)
let c = getline(.)[col(.)-1]
if (c == '(')
skip over a nested param list
normal %
call search('[,)]', W)
endif
normal h
endfunction

Hello,
I believe that can be done using Vimscript, so you could try that first.
regards,
Peter
