set a variable to a value with spaces in enter-command
Dear all, If I have the following in my rc: set editor=one -arg1 -arg2 set my_var=$editor macro index w enter-commandset my_var2=$editorenter test When I do :set my_var it correctly prints out one -arg1 -arg2. However if I press 'w' and then :set my_var2 it does not seem to work. How can I be careful to copy variables respecting that one might have a space? Kind regards, Xu
