At one point I had a working macvim package that I just downloaded and copied 
into Applications, but I also wanted it to work from the terminal in place of 
vim for clipboard integration so I removed int and nstalled via homebrew 
instead using:

brew install macvim --override-system-vim

vim from terminal works great... the gui version did work at one point and I'm 
not sure what changed but now it does not work at all.  The app will start but 
no windows will open and File new window appears to do nothing.  When I exit 
the app it will tell me that 2 windows are open, but none of were are visible, 
bring all to front is grayed out and trying to activate window via right click 
on the dock does not work.  

I followed the steps on the troubleshooting page but no luck.

I renamed .vimrc and .vim. 
ran defaults delete org.vim.MacVim
I use zsh and removed the /etc/zshenv and renamed my .profile and .zshrc files 
as well
removed all prior vim versions including homebrew and reinstalled from homebrew 
only.  
I then removed homebrew's version again and installed with --HEAD also but 
still no luck. 

I also enabled logging as described here but the log does not appear to contain 
any errors

I did noticed that when I right click the dock icon I still see recently opened 
files, but clicking on them still does open the window.  

The preferences page does open just no text windows.  Any ideas?
