This would need a better check for the argument being equal to the current file name. Or perhaps any loaded buffer name. This also needs documenting. Especially that ":sp bufA" does not reload while ":sp bufB" does, if bufB is open in another window. On the other hand, this behavior change might cause trouble for those who depend on the buffer being reloaded. -- SIGIRO -- irony detected (iron core dumped) /// Bram Moolenaar -- [email protected] -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ an exciting new programming language -- http://www.Zimbu.org /// \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org /// -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
