Nope. The dialog is completely unresponsive to any key other than return/enter.
There is also the c flag in 'guioptions' if you prefer text
(command-line) dialogs to GUI popup dialogs. But I'm not sure whether
that flag has any effect in M$W.
Yes, that works, so it's what I'll go with for now.
But what's the point of a GUI if it doesn't do things in a gooey way? :]
Change the application title for each vim instance to be what it would
be for a OS-level window in other OSs so that they're differentiable.
(Yeah, I'm probably repeating what a lot of other people have
requested, but...)
see ":help --servername". That setting defines the "program name" as
seen on the titlebar. If you don't edit the same file in different Vim
instances, the filename displayed on the titlebar will also help you
differentiate them.
The Mac version of Vim does not support the +clientserver build option and thus
doesn't support that command-line option.
Anyway, that wouldn't do any good for Vim instances started by the Finder.
You don't understand: switching between windows and switching between
applications are two different things on the Mac. Using command-tab switches
between applications; command-` switches between windows within an application.
When command-tabbing between applications, all you get is the application
name; this isn't anything specific to Vim. It's how all Mac apps work, e.g.,
if you've got a word processor with multiple documents/windows open, all you'll
be able to see when switching is the application's name. Yes, the Vim window
title-bar reflects all the usual information you see in it on other platforms,
but that does you no good when switching between Vim instances.
