Maybe you don't need an autocommand?
If you set the 'winheight' option, Vim will attempt to make the current
window no smaller than that value if possible whenever you enter the window.
Notes:
- 'winheight' is not a hard minimum: it maybe larger than the Vim screen
size. It applies only to the current window
- 'winminheight' is the hard minimum for all windows, it ought to be no
bigger than the quotient of the Vim screen height by the number of
split-wndows vertically above each other. Its default value is 1 but it
is permissible to set it to zero.
- They are both global options. There is a different setting,
'helpheight', for the soft-minimum-height of a help window.
- To make the current window as high as possible and reduce all others
to just a status line and nothing else (a behaviour which, for reasons
which seem obvious to me, I call "Rolodex Vim") use
:set noequalalways winminheight=0
:set winheight=99999 helpheight=99999
- Drawback: With Rolodex Vim, ":all" and "vim -o" won't crate more than
two windows. To avoid that, set these options after all startup windows
are opened, by means of a VimEnter autocommand. This is what I use in my
vimrc (as usual, check the help for anything you don't know in this
snippet):
if has("windows")
if has("autocmd")
augroup rolodex
au VimEnter * set noea wmh=0 wh=99999 hh=99999
augroup vimrclocal
else
set noea wmh=0 wh=99999 hh=99999
endif
endif
("vimrclocal" is the autocommand group used by all other autocommands
set before and after that by my vimrc. Other scripts use other group
names, e.g. the vimrc_example.vim uses vimrcEx, the filetype detection
mechanism uses filetypedetect, and my homebrew colorscheme uses its
colorscheme name.)
Best regards,
Tony.
