I'm assuming if I'm using MacVim I want to record configurations in gvirmc. Doing ":e ~/.gvirmc" creates a new file. The gvirmc in the MacVim.app contents folder already has a substantial amount of configuration in it, which I assume is essential to MacVim. I assume you woudn't want multiple gvimrc files. Do I copy or move the gvimrc file to the home folder? If I move it from the MacVim.app contents folder to the home folder, will MacVim be properly configured when it starts up? I need to refresh myself about "home folder": In "user/ericweir", the "home folder"is "ericweir", for which I can substitute "~/"? While I'm at it, thanks to everyone for the many helpful suggestions. I'll get around to responding to many of you, but I do appreciate all the suggestions.
