I agree. I confirmed this odd behavior with $ gvim -u NONE -N :set so=4
and adding 100 lines to the buffer. As you say, for Step 1 it is important to click and drag; entering Visual mode with "v" or double-clicking does not reproduce the bug. For Step 2, I simply used "H" (without the quotes). HTH --Benji Fisher On Thu, Sep 21, 2006 at 04:32:31PM -0700, Max Dyckhoff wrote: > Addendum: > > You actually have to drag with the mouse.
