If this turns out to be something useful and worth including in Vim, I think we really need to come up with some better method of invoking it than setting the value of an option to a buffer number. I don't understand what this does well enough to suggest a name, but I think some command like :diffref that sets the current buffer as the reference buffer, or whatever 'diffbuf' means, would be much better than requiring the user to figure out the number of the buffer of interest, then setting some option to it. Further, an option value will hang around and confuse the user the next time they execute :diffthis. Regards, Gary -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post!
