There are two commands that change the working directory: :cd, which is global, and :lcd, which is window-local. There is no change-directory command whose scope is a tab. That said, you could use the TabEnter autocommand event and a tab-local variable to :cd to the working directory you define for each tab. That is, in each tab you could execute :let t:wd = some/directory and in your ~/.vimrc you could have an autocommand something like this: au TabEnter * if exists(t:wd) | exe cd t:wd | endif See :help TabEnter :help t:var Regards, Gary -- You received this message from the vim_use maillist.

Re: Weird auto-comment after 72 lines
Try :help cinoptions (specifically, the *N value for which the help says: *NVim searches for unclosed comments at most N lines away. This limits the time needed to search for the start of a comment. (default 30 lines). I think that the help may be out of date, because the code (in get_c_indent(), misc1.c) has int ind_maxcomment = 70; which would explain the 72-line behavior (it searches back 70 lines for the start of the comment, so line 71 works as expected, and line 72 doesn't.)

Folding
I'm a Vim novice, and a writer not a programmer. I've perused the responses to questions about folding in the Vim FAQ. It's largely Greek to me. I have a couple questions: I understand folds can be indented. Is it possible to get Vim to wrap words to the indent column? Is there a way I can get folds to persist across a save and reload?

Re: Plugin to continue text at top

So the plugin/script would work like this: Let's say you have a gvim window which, from top to bottom, has 50 lines. When you finish writing in the 50th line and hit enter GVim would automatically make an attached window right next to where you were writing so the 51st line would go on the top inline with the 1st line.
