Hi, I have included the autocmd (listed below) in my .vimrc file. au BufReadPost * if &readonly | set nomodifiable
The intention is to not let gvim even modify the read only files, which works great with some downside. It only works when I just start a new gvim window!!! If, in the same window, I load a different buffer (by opening a new read only file) I have to go in and manually do "set nomodifiable"... which is very annoying. I tried to play around with the different au[tocmd] events (http://www.at.vim.org/html/autocmd.html#BufReadCmd) But, seems that I cannot get around the issue that I have. Can any one give me some solution around it please. I am just very annoyed when gvim asks you for a permission to modify a readonly file. I would like for "nomodifable" to be set all the time for readonly files. please advise!?! thanks in advance, Rudy -- View this message in context: http://old.nabble.com/au-BufReadPost-*-if--readonly-%7C-set-nomodifiable-tp28456618p28456618.html Sent from the Vim - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
