Hello Vim List, I'm using Vimball version 20 - the latest.
Looking at a Vimball from Chip, I see 3 header lines followed by a set, for each included file, of 2 header lines followed by the contents of the file. For one such Vimball - line numbers added: 1 "Vimball Archiver by ... 2 UseVimball 3 finish 4 plugin/file.vim<tab>[[[1 5 50 6 The first of the 50 source lines -- 56 doc/file.txt<tab>[[[1 57 30 58 The first of the 30 lines of help -- 87 The last of the 30 lines of help Building my own vimball, I start gvim and type 2 lines: plugin/file.vim doc/file.txt and type: :%MkVimball file My "vimball" looks like this: 1 plugin/file.vim<tab>[[[1 2 51 3 finish 4 The first of the 50 source lines -- 54 doc/file.txt<tab>[[[1 55 30 56 The first of the 30 lines of help -- 85 The last of the 30 lines of help Notice that there is no starting header and a line containing "finish" has become the first line of the first file. Since I understand the format I can manually create the vimball from the broken one generated by MkVimball. Can anyone actually create one with MkVimball? What am I doing wrong? -- Best regards, Bill
