Hi,
For some reason my .vimrc must works for multiple versions of Vim.
Now, I found that in Vim 6.1 Tiny version (shipped with Redhat 9), the
following does not work:
command! -nargs=+ TestCmd echo "<args>"
TestCmd my test
The vim saids: Not an editor command: TestCmd my test
It seems that the command define are not available for the Vim 6.1 Tiny
version, but when I :help command, it doesn't show any +xxx feature reqired
for define command.
It would be Okay to disable it in the Tiny version, but I just do not know
how. since it does not reqire +xxxxx feature, I cannot use "if has() endif"
to wrap it.
Any work around?

Under ":help +feature-list" (with the plus sign) we see that there is a
+user_commands feature which require Normal version (or bigger).
Also, remember that it's hard to effectively test for Tiny version,
since they cannot do expression evaluation, and everything from ":if" to
":endif" will be disregarded (on both sides of the "else"). The only
possibility I see is something like this (untested):
----- 8< ---- killtiny.vim
if 1
" we got expression evaluation: OK
finish
endif
set more cmdheight=1
echoerr "Tiny version -- abort"
echoerr "!!!"
echoerr "!!!"
echoerr "!!!"
qall!
----- >8 -----
Invoke it with
source killtiny.vim
in order to abort Vim (with an error message) if a Tiny version is being
used.
Or if you just want to disable soe statements in a Tiny version, wrap
them between ":if 1" and ":endif". (For a function: the definition _and_
every invocation will probably need to be wrapped that way.)
Best regards,
Tony.
