What is your 'laststatus' setting? If zero, the bottom window won't have
a status line. (I use 2). Otherwise, I don't know what hit you.

^W= should make all windows equal, ^W_ should swell the current window
to full size. The 'equalalways' setting should come into play as soon as
you create od delete a window. I use either
:set ea wh-1 wmh=0
for "all windows equal" or
:set noea wh=99999 wmh=0
for "current window full-size" (permanently); in the former case I may
hit ^W_ to expand the current window temporarily and ^W= to make them
all equal again.
What I gave in my former post were help tags (as you should type them as
arguments to the ":help" command; I should have written CTRL- in all
caps but what I wrote, with Ctrl-, also works for me); here I'm using
the other notation with ^W meaning "hit Ctrl-W". What do you mean by
"Ctrl-W_" and "Ctrl-W__"?

If you want to suppress plugins, it's --noplugin (in one word and with
no s at the end). But they oughtn't to mess up your split-windows setup.
You might try -u NONE -N which suppresses not only plugins but also your
own vimrc, or -u something.vim -N which sources something.vim _instead_
of your vimrc.
