Thanks for your help. unfortunately, none of these suggestions work.
Hmm.  You say in your original message that you have tried
has("gui_running").  This works for me (and has for a long time).

As a test, I put

let my_has_gui_running = has("gui_running")

early in my .vimrc.  If I start vim from the command line and type

:echo my_has_gui_running

I get 0.  If I do the same with gvim (or vim -g) I get 1.  Using

if has("gui_running")
   echo "has gui_running"
else
   echo "does not have gui_running"
endif

in .vimrc prints (to the terminal before setting up the vim screen) the
correct string for both vim and gvim.

I am using vim 7.2.445 from Debian squeeze.

Hi Marvin,

On my system, "gui_running" only distinguishes between Vim and gvim.

I put let my_has_gui_running = has("gui_running") early in my ~/.vimrc file and did :echo my_has_gui_running

In Vim run from the black and white tty text console, I get 0;
In Vim run insde of gnome-terminal, I also get 0;
In gvim, I get a 1

That's why it's not working. I'm trying to distinguish between tty text mode and X mode.
Not between Vim and gvim.

Regards,
Steve




the problem with this is if I use "gui_running"
