I just tried that on windows (earlier was vim-gtk) and set lines=500| echomsg &lines gives 76, but adding your lines code to _gvimrc doesn't work, with or without a redraw. :help gui suggests using the GUIEnter event. I tried: func Autolines() set lines=500 " over zealous numbers of lines let &lines = ((float2nr(0.85*&lines)>52)?float2nr(0.85*&lines):52) endfunc autocmd GUIEnter * call Autolines() in my _gvimrc on windows and it seemed to work, lines was set to 64. I'll try it tomorrow on my vim-gtk on Kubuntu. Regards, John -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. For more information, visit http://www.vim.org/maillist.php
