Basic question, CTRL+Wh on Gvim, Win XP

2007-04-10 Thread Samuel Wright

Hi All,

On my gvim 7 running on Win Xp none of the following work to move to
another window (I'm actually using the project plugin, but I don't
think that's relevant)..

CTRL-W Left *CTRL-W_Left*
CTRL-W CTRL-H   *CTRL-W_CTRL-H*
CTRL-W BS   *CTRL-W_BS* *CTRL-W_h*
CTRL-W hMove cursor to Nth window left of current one.  Uses the
cursor position to select between alternatives.


If this intended behaviour for Win Xp, or have I enabled this
somewhere? I have behave mswin turned off.

Thanks
Sam

Worth knowing. Thanks. What about when using a leader such as , or / ?


Hit any key to continue is a lie.

The comma does a reverse-search of the last thing you searched

Yes, have seen , used as leader before. Will look at the other usage
though, as it is not something I've encountered.


The forward slash does searching...something used quite regularly.


I meant backslash there, should be more careful.

Folding away based on a seach

2007-01-11 Thread Samuel Wright

HI All,

I have a todo list of single line entries.
I'd like to fold everything away apart from a custom seach, say

:customsearch urgent

would fold away all lines that did not contain urgent.

Has this been done already in some way?

If not, can I search, get the line numbers with results on, and do the
math to fold away everything else?

Ie, if lines 3 and 8 contain the term,
mark 1-2, fold
mark 4-7 fold
mark 9-end fold

Thanks for your help
S


Call a vim function from the command line

2006-12-01 Thread Samuel Wright

Hi All,

Is it possible to invoke a function in vim automatically?
I'd like to process a text file automatically. I *could* write an
onload for the specific file that calls a functions, saves and exists,
but it does not strike me as very elegant.

Is there anything like

vim -auto -text_file -function

That I can use for this?

search and replace function in vimrc

2006-11-27 Thread Samuel Wright

Hi Guys,

Working with vim 7 on win xp here. Trying to add this function to my vimrc

Regex to find bad indexitem entries and replace them
function FixJHIndex()
  silent! %s/\(indexitem text=\a*.*\)\_s*\/indexitem/\1/g
endfunction

to find stuff like this

   indexitem text=Conversions between pixel types
   /indexitem

The regular expression works if I call it directly, but when I write

:function FixJHIndex

it just echoes the function definition. What am I missing?

Thanks
Sam


UTL plugin query

2006-11-07 Thread Samuel Wright

Hi All,

I'm using the UTL plugin to navigate local files. I have a markdown
formatted file (which should not affect things), and a list of files
in a directory

* file.txt
* other.txt

When the cursor is on one of the files, leadergu opens it, which is
the desired effect. However sometimes it is opened in the current
window, and sometimes the window is split. I can't seem to find why
this happens, but it seems file dependent.

Any help?

saving and loading views

2006-10-25 Thread Samuel Wright

Hi Guys, I used to have this in .vimrc

autocmd BufWinLeave * mkview
autocmd BufWinEnter * silent loadview

to automatically save and load folds. I have recently added it again,
but it does not seem to work in Vim 7 on Win XP.
Have I missed anything obvious?

Thanks

Sam

Re: How does vim recognize file type?

2006-09-18 Thread Samuel Wright

In your vim folder you probably have a filetype.vim which has a couple
of lines per file type to detect when an extension is opened or
created, and set the filetype automatically.

Hello,
I am using tablatex.vim, ftplugin for LaTeX files, and I have a main
latex file and several included .tex files.

Well, vim loads the plugin (and the syntax file) when I'm editing the
main file, while it doesn't when I'm editing the included files.

How can I tell vim that I'm editing a .tex file? And how do I make vim
recognize .tex files without me setting the filetype?

TIA,
