vim not opening directories
currently running vim 7.1.2 svn. In the past when invoking vim on a directory, it would open the directory and list the contents, my current build is not doing this. It returns the message src is a directory instead. Can someone point me to what I've mis-configured? Thanks, reid

Can someone point me to what I've mis-configured? You are probably running vim in 'compatible' mode. Try :set nocompatible to disable this behaviour, or create a ~/.vimrc file (if this file even exists, vim defaults to nocompatible) And maybe start vim as 'vim' instead of 'vi' helps too. Regards, Peter Palm I have a .vimrc. it has Use Vim settings, rather then Vi settings (much better!). This must be first, because it changes other options as a side effect. set nocompatible I've already tried invoking via [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/bin/vim src [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ /usr/bin/gvim src

What is the output of :echo $VIMRUNTIME ? Peter /usr/share/vim/vim71

Need help integrating new tabbed windows functionality into cscope
I currently use cscope with the mappings shown below. What I would like to know how to implement is, a sequence of mappings that would open the cscope returned data in a new tab, rather than the current tab or a split of the current tab. I would like this to work for both vim and gvim. Currently some of the mappings below do not work for gvim ( CTRL-spacebar seems to jump me to the beginning of the first word following a space, or the first newline whichever comes first) Any help would be appreciated. thanks, reid mappings--- To do the first type of search, hit 'CTRL-\', followed by one of the cscope search types above (s,g,c,t,e,f,i,d). The result of your cscope search will be displayed in the current window. You can use CTRL-T to go back to where you were before the search. nmap C-\s :cs find s C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-\g :cs find g C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-\c :cs find c C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-\t :cs find t C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-\e :cs find e C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-\f :cs find f C-R=expand(cfile)CRCR nmap C-\i :cs find i ^C-R=expand(cfile)CR$CR nmap C-\d :cs find d C-R=expand(cword)CRCR Using 'CTRL-spacebar' (intepreted as CTRL-@ by vim) then a search type makes the vim window split horizontally, with search result displayed in the new window. (Note: earlier versions of vim may not have the :scs command, but it can be simulated roughly via: nmap C-@s C-WC-S :cs find s C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@s :scs find s C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@g :scs find g C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@c :scs find c C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@t :scs find t C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@e :scs find e C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@f :scs find f C-R=expand(cfile)CRCR nmap C-@i :scs find i ^C-R=expand(cfile)CR$CR nmap C-@d :scs find d C-R=expand(cword)CRCR Hitting CTRL-space *twice* before the search type does a vertical split instead of a horizontal one (vim 6 and up only) (Note: you may wish to put a 'set splitright' in your .vimrc if you prefer the new window on the right instead of the left nmap C-@C-@s :vert scs find s C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@C-@g :vert scs find g C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@C-@c :vert scs find c C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@C-@t :vert scs find t C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@C-@e :vert scs find e C-R=expand(cword)CRCR nmap C-@C-@f :vert scs find f C-R=expand(cfile)CRCR nmap C-@C-@i :vert scs find i ^C-R=expand(cfile)CR$CR nmap C-@C-@d :vert scs find d C-R=expand(cword)CRCR
