Using vim 7.2 on ubuntu 10.04, huge version.

I make use of Dr. Campbell's netrw browse window, which has the
ctrl-h feature that allows me to edit the hide list.

The hide list is associated with g:netrw_list_hide. I would like to
be able to save that variable to my session file. However, when I
save the session, I do not see that the g:netrw_list_hide is saved.
In fact g:netrw_list_hide is not even defined until netrw is first
invoked.

Is it possible to save g:netrw_list_hide?


Hello!

From the vim manual, under  :help mks...

2. Restores global variables that start with an uppercase letter and contain
   at least one lowercase letter, if 'sessionoptions' contains "globals".

So, unfortunately, g:netrw_list_hide does not satisfy that constraint.

I checked into whether this process could be automated; unfortunately, there does not appear to be a SessionWritePre autocmd event. If there was, something like

au SessionWritePre  * let g:Netrw_list_hide= g:netrw_list_hide
au SessionLoadPost * let g:netrw_list_hide= g:Netrw_list_hide

might work.

Chip Campbell
