I had a similar problem with a plugin I was writing recently. Without going into details on the plugin, here's what I did to make sure a particular function was called no matter how I started vim. -------------------------------------------------------------------- """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" " " Call the ConfigureProject() function when Vim is started and when a new " file is opened. " """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" let b:event = '' if argc() == 0 " No files were specified on the command line, so the autocommand " will not be triggered when vim starts. call ConfigureProject('') endif if argc() > 0 && isdirectory(argv(0)) " The first file specified on the command line is a directory, so the " autocommand will not be triggered when vim starts. call ConfigureProject(fnamemodify(argv(0), ":p")) endif augroup project au! au BufNewFile * let b:event="BufNewFile" | call ConfigureProject(expand("<afile>:p:h")) au BufRead * let b:event="BufRead" | call ConfigureProject(expand("<afile>:p:h")) augroup END -------------------------------------------------------------------- HTH, Gary -- Gary Johnson | Agilent Technologies [EMAIL PROTECTED] | Wireless Division | Spokane, Washington, USA
