I have a small in-app feature where I can open my application's Lua scripts with the default text editor registered in the system. I also like to open the Lua scripts to a specific line number if I detect an error. With MacVim, I invoke it with command line switches: -g + (line_number)
This works great if the file is not already open. If the file is open, Vim prompts me there is a .swp file and allows me pick an action. But in this case, what I would prefer is that Vim just silently bring the already existing open window to the front (ideally with the correct tab selected if tabs are in use). Gold star if I can also get this already open window to move to the requested line number. Is there any way to achieve this? Perhaps there is some special command line argument I can use to suppress prompts and already does what I want? Or if not, is there an AppleScript way to control this? (Incidentally, I'm working on a Lua/Cocoa bridge which has Scripting Bridge support so in theory, I may be able to write a Lua script to control this for me.)
