The problem occurred last night when I was changing stuff in Preferences in MacVim. Basically now every time I open a file with MacVim, the entire content is automatically highlighted.
I could turn it off by either commenting out "highlight search result" in vimrc (which isn't a good solution because I do want that feature) or choosing "Toggle pattern highlight" under Edit -> Global Settings (which works only for the current window). I tried resetting my preferences by issuing the command "defaults delete org.vim.MacVim" but it didn't fix the problem. The stuff I changed in Preferences before the problem occurred was 1. Open new file in tab instead of window. 2. Unchecked "use experimental renderer" under Advanced tab. I changed both back after seeing the problem, but didn't help. Any idea is much appreciated. -Mu -- You received this message from the "vim_mac" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
