I guess that is not surprising. As far as I can guess from Googling a bit this is a bug in some version of glib. It probably forgets to make a path absolute before calling gnome_vfs_get_uri_from_local_path(). Or that function should expand the name itself. You could try upgrading GTK/glib. -- I'm in shape.

If you want me to test something, I can try it, but I cannot diagnose it myself. Perhaps this matters. I started gvim from a gnome-terminal and that is where the error message appeared.

You must also be using Gnome. That's probably the problem, the gnome
code isn't very smooth.
Anyway, I don't get this error, thus it may depend on the version of the
Gnome library.

I have a feeling that this is a gvim issue but I have never touched the
vim code before, can someone point me to where to look for the gtk stuff?

According to
:help 'browsedir'
this option only works with Win32 and Motif. Yet with my GTK2 build,
:echo exists("+browsedir")
returns 1 and
:set browsedir=last
does not generate an error. When I try
:browse e
I get a similar error:
(gvim:30150): libgnomevfs-CRITICAL **: file gnome-vfs-utils.c: line 749
(gnome_vfs_get_uri_from_local_path): assertion `local_full_path[0] ==
'/'' failed
Let me see: I am running FC2 with GTK2, and
$ rpm -qa | grep -i gtk2
returns (among other things)
gtk2-2.4.0-1
so I guess I am using GTK2 2.4.0.

But only within same gvim process. Or are you asking to remebmer lat browsed directory between gvim restarts ? Yakov
Re: GVim File Dialog -- Remeber last opened directory?
You probably need to give your system specs. The WinXP gvim does remember the last directory used. I don't know how to change the behavior of the default GUI open button, but you can create your own GUI buttons using Vim scripts. As a suggestion, you might consider using the : prompt to open new files. :e and :cd , combined with the ^D and autocomplete keys, are much faster. I don't know how others feel about the GUI buttons, but I consider them as an occasional convenience and as a way to transition into using Vim, and aren't intended for hardcore Vimming. If you really want to start cooking with gas, you'll rarely touch the mouse once inside Vim. P.s. It doesn't default to $HOME, as far as I can tell, but the directory you started gvim in.
