You can then source the MyView.vim file (or Session.vim if you try :mksession) to restore viewing state. Setting hidden will hide instead of abandon buffers you leave behind, including all their state information. Then, when you return to them, they're there in all their glory (and warts).

Is there a way to stop this? ie Vim remembers the 'fold state' of the buffer when I return to it? So if folds were open when I left they'll be open when I return? Conversely if they were closed when I left they'll be closed when I return? I suggest looking into sessions and views, also perhaps "set hidden" will do what you want. Regards, Chip Campbell

Re: Remembering 'Fold State' across buffers
(I missed part of this thread, so sorry if this has already been mentioned). Have you checked for mode lines at the top or bottom of the files which set fold options? If there aren't any which might be confusing you, you could consider adding your own mode lines to have the folding appropriate for your different files.

Recently I saw the following: Viewed one file with folds in gvim (FWIW, it was Vim 7.0.017, "huge" version with GTK2 GUI, running on SuSE Linux 9.3). Opened one fold. ":q" the file. Then came back to it. The one fold was still open. I source the vimrc_example.vim in my vimrc. (Do you?) Then if you do, maybe we have different settings or autocommands? (AFAIK, I have nothing folds-related in my vimrc, other than what might be set by the vimrc_example.vim) Best regards, Tony.

Remembering 'Fold State' across buffers
Hi all, The problem I'm having is I'll open all folds in a buffer, switch buffers, go back to the original and all folds are closed again. Is there a way to stop this? ie Vim remembers the 'fold state' of the buffer when I return to it? So if folds were open when I left they'll be open when I return? Conversely if they were closed when I left they'll be closed when I return? Vim 7 Ubuntu Dapper thanks, -- Mark
