Not my patch but Christian Brabandt's :) Thanks for the tip. I just tested it and splitvertical trumps diffopt horizontal so far. Is that right? Perhaps the configuration for a specific mode should trump the global setting. This has now put me over the edge to keeping a list of bugs about this issue as we find them: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/User:Kartik_Agaram (I wanted it to be in 'vim space', a wiki so anybody could easily modify the list, and super lightweight so you didn't have to create an account or login or *anything* to do so.) Can anybody else think of options that affect split direction in vim? -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
