Why does this mapping move my cursor?
I have a mapping in my .vimrc : nnoremap md :write:silent !open -a 'Marked.app' '%:p' When I invoke the map, my cursor in Vim moves to the beginning of the line. This doesn't happen if I run the commands manually. Why does the cursor move and how can I stop it from doing so? Thanks! -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!

wrapping a series of comma separated words
I'm constantly needing to wrap a series of comma separated titles with html tags, so this: John has published work in foo, fubar, boo review, and many more. Becomes this John has published work in foo, fubar, boo review, and many more. Right now I'm visually highlighting each title and using emmet to wrap with the tags, but it seems like there must be a shorter way! -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.

Why use relative line numbers?
The discussion about relative line numbers raises the question (for me): why use relative line numbers at all? The main reason I keep reading is that instead of having to calculate how many lines one wants to move and then use, say, 5j to move there (or pressing j five times, yuck), one can immediately see that the desired line is 5 lines away. But if I am on line 7 and see something on another line, I can just use 12gg or 12G to get there. And if I have relative numbering on, it messes with specifying ranges (as far as I can tell). Does relative numbering offer other efficiencies? c -- Chris Lott ch...@chrislott.org -- -- You received this message from the vim_use maillist. Do not top-post!

Re: sourcing functions in file with has gui_running from .vimrc
On Sun, Nov 4, 2012 at 7:56 AM, Tony Mechelynck
If these options are set correctly and you still don't see the tabs, then
another possibility is that Vim would set 'guitablabel' and 'guitabtooltip'
to some default (or empty) value at GUI startup. To counteract this, you can
set them at the GUIEnter autocommand event:
if has('gui') has('autocmd') has('windows')
au GUIEnter * set gtl=%{GuiTabLabel()} gtt=%{GuiTabTooltip()}
endif
Thanks. It's interesting that, as originally written, if the code was
in the .vimrc it worked, but if included in a separate file it did not
unless I use the GUIEnter command...
But it worked! Thanks!
