When I use :e file* under cygwin (a Unix emulator running on Windows), I get an error saying "E77: Too many filenames". But in fact there is only one such file. However, there are other files matching FILE*. How can I turn off this behavior so that vim under cygwin performs case-sensitive globbing? I've searched the vim help pages but can't seem to find it, if it exists. For comparison, bash has a nocaseglob option which, if set, matches filenames in a case-insensitive fashion when performing pathname expansion.
P.S. Thanks for vim! Like thousands of other people, I use it everywhere: unix, windows, cygwin. :version VIM - Vi IMproved 7.0 (2006 May 7, compiled Oct 10 2006 10:07:11) Included patches: 1-122 Compiled by [EMAIL PROTECTED] Huge version without GUI.
