Ben! update comment:
I renistalled gvim as the gvim.desktop file seemed corrupt. And now I have some prefs in there...!!! I found Exec=gvim which is without the extras that your first link suggested would be there.. Anyways I replace the line with: Exec=gvim -p --remote-tab-silent %F and still have : tab all in my ~/.vimrc though hav additionally added tab all to the /et/vimrc file which was empty. Likely due to my moving the original one that was there. I'll keep trying and reboot etc. though I'm still not clear that I've got it right. Or, what else may be happening... Great assist though Bill ... looking forward to success... and bill the cream lead could well help someone for sure..! --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
