I think I might not have explained what I'm trying to do well. I am *not* trying to use ssh X forwarding - I was using it as an analogy. What I'm trying to achieve is basically this: On my Mac, I have a script called 'edit-remote' which is basically this one line: "gvim --servername `gvim --serverlist | head -n1` --remote-tab $@" On my Linux box I want to do this: ssh Mac "edit-remote scp://$HOSTNAME/$file" The problem is that when I enter my Mac via ssh, it does not seem to have access to the existing MacVim server session. Running 'edit- remote' locally works perfectly fine, its only when I try to run it via ssh from a remote machine that it cannot find the existing MacVim session, and instead spawns a new one. [This is why I was using the X forwarding analogy, because I assumed, probably incorrectly, thats its a similar issue with the WindowServer (or whatever).] -Naitik --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist.
