Hi Yegappan,

You can try using the workspace manager plugin:

- Yegappan
I'm a simple VIM user.
That's why I ask many things on this mailing-group, which is very
responsive.
Many times when I try to install very clever plugins I fail to do so.
Mainly because of the missing-Vim knowledge you guys have.
I decided to try it again and unfortantly failed again to follow the
instructions.
If it's not too much of your time, could you please explain what I need to
do following your 6 points.
If not thanks anyway.
I read on the script that I need to follow the 6 points mentioned.
[start of point 1]
1. Download the workspace.zip file and unzip the files to the $HOME/.vim or
the $HOME/vimfiles or the $VIM/vimfiles directory. This should unzip the
following two files (the directory structure should be preserved):
plugin/workspace.vim - main workspace plugin file
doc/workspace.txt - documentation (help) file
Refer to the 'add-plugin', 'add-global-plugin' and 'runtimepath'
Vim help pages for more details about installing Vim plugins.
[end of point 1]
What I did:
Download the zip file:
And stored
workspace.txt is stored in C:\Program Files\Vim\vimfiles\doc
workspace.vim C:\Program Files\Vim\vimfiles\plugin
Is this OK?
What is $HOME, how can I check this in VIM?
What is $VIM, how can I check this in VIM?
[start of point 2]
2. Change to the $HOME/.vim/doc or $HOME/vimfiles/doc or
$VIM/doc/vimfiles directory, start Vim and run the ":helptags ."
command to process the workspace help file.
[end of point 2]
What I did:
I don't understand the first part. What is ment here?
I just started Vim and did typed: :helptags .
Vim did do something, don't know what.
[start of point 3]
3. If you are running a terminal/console version of Vim and the terminal
doesn't support changing the window width then set the
'Ws_Inc_Winwidth' variable to 0 in the .vimrc file.
[end of point 3]
What I did:
I ignored this, as I'm running gvim on windows xp.
[start of point 4]
[end of point 4]
What I did:
As there isn't a point 4 I went to point 5
[start of point 5]
5. Restart Vim.
[end of point 5]
What I did:
I did close gvim and restarted it.
[start of point 6]
6. You can now use the ":WsOpen <filename>" command to open a
workspace. You can use the ":help workspace" command to get
more information about using the workspace plugin.
[end of point 6]
What I did:
I typed :help workspace
Vim replied: E149: Sorry, no help for workspace
Thanks for your time.
Best regards,
Eric Leenman
