Hi Gary, and Yakov, I'm sorry, I'm feeling terrible today so my bug reports aren't very comprehensive. More information!
WinXP, GVIM 7.0 compiled by Bram. I don't have many plugins, the major ones being Lookupfile and associated plugins and vimoutliner. I seriously suspect vimoutliner is the culprit. But that is actually only half of the story. The bad << mapping doesn't exist in a clean vim, even with all my plugins running, it only exists in the current session of vim that I am using. I run vim with 7 tabs open, each containing at least two files. I have three tabs full of .cpp files that I am working on, a tab with some AI scripting files, a tab with some HTML docs that I am writing, a tab with some init files, a tab with my .vimrc and a tab with my todo.otl file for vimoutliner. When I reboot I do a :mksession ~/work_session.vim, and when I come back I :so ~/work_session.vim so I can continue where I left off. This saves me loads of time reopening the 20 or so C files that I am working on at any one time, as well as all the various supporting files listed above. This session has been around for a few weeks, and I keep :mksession-ing and :so-ing it. When I :so it I get an error in one of my HTML docs, but it doesn't seem to fail so I'm not worrying. Do you think the session is somehow corrupted? It happens if I make the session again cleanly (open all the files in a new vim session, :mksession, :so session, observe strange behaviour), so just trashing the session and starting again isn't really an option, as the problem will come back within a couple of days.
