yes, this is my problem. Generally, I'll open many files in the same vim. But for debugging, I use screen and C-a ¦ but then might open something in the other screen session and... no copying between them... you'd think with as many file descriptors that screen opens that this should be possible (either in screen or just within vim) but I haven't really checked into it. Either way, I would probably use a file manager script in vim for that task and a horizontal split in screen (C-a S IIRC) for the terminal. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
