. The = and , in your example are other non-blank characters, so are words for the purposes of b, e and w movements. vi was like this. If you :set isk=@,=-=,,-, then w moves from the b to the end of the line. So, clearly 'iskeyword' is not ignored. Regards, John Little -- You received this message from

As I expected, setting fit_to_display gives a smaller vim window than not setting it, two lines less, with a gap at the top of the display, unless the vim shell was already at the top, in which case the gap is at the bottom. Regards, John -- You received this message from the vim_dev
