i have opened the attached file -
and there are no errors at all.

the message i see after startup is this:
"/tmp/RslToolsConfigure.vim" [dos] 32L, 2263C

vim sees that it is a DOS/Windows file and will
write the EOLs accordingly.  so.. all is good.
why get redi of the CTRL-Ms when tehre is no need to?

ps: please do NOT top-post.  thankyou.

Why get rid of them? Because Unix Vim can *edit* a dos-format file if 'fileformats' includes "dos" but it cannot *source* it. OTOH, Windows Vim can both edit and source unix-format files, provided that 'fileformats' contains "unix".

The solution is to have :set ffs=dos,unix or :set ffs=unix,dos,mac *and* to make sure that *.vim, vimrc and gvimrc files are saved with ff=unix (at least when meant to be usable also by a Vim instance built for Unix [including Linux and Cygwin] or Mac).

See
        :help :source-crnl
        :help 'fileformats'
        :help 'fileformat'
        :help ++opt


Best regards,
Tony.
