latest netrws reset my formatoptions for me
I'm afraid that I don't see this problem. I've even tried it with your
stated preference of fo=tcroqn.
vim somefile
:Explore somedirectory
(select a file)
and the resulting formatoption still has tcroqn (I put set fo=tcroqn
into my .vimrc for testing).
I also tried it using vim -g -c Explore and the formatoption's t was
still retained.
Are you sure you disabled/removed the older version of netrw?
this one gives numerous errors:
Error detected while processing function netrw#Explore:
line 2:
E121: Undefined variable: b:netrw_curdir
E15: Invalid expression: b:netrw_curdir
line 68:
E121: Undefined variable: curfile

substitute(curfile,'^.*/','','e').'\>','cW')
E116: Invalid arguments for function search
I've got this Explore bug fixed in v107n.
And, about vimball: read :help usevimball to find out how to
override the use of the
runtimepath's first directory as the root for unpacking the vimball.
