i set my backup and swap directories to ~\vimfiles\data\swap ~\vimfiles\data\backup
however at my work i very often have to edit two different revisions of the same project, meaning that quite often i have vim open two files in different directories with the same name. because of the my setting for backup and swap files this causes them to store in the same location under the same name. does anybody know of a way of giving unique names to the swap files and backup files. example: \home\myFirstProject\file.c \home\mySecondProject\file.c vim will store ~\vimfiles\data\swap\file.c.swp ~\vimfiles\data\backup\~file.c.swp for both projects. what i want is ~\vimfiles\data\swap\uniqueNameForMyFirstPeojctfile.c.swp ~\vimfiles\data\swap\uniqueNameForMySecondPeojctfile.c.swp ~\vimfiles\data\backup\~uniqueNameForMyFirstPeojctfile.c.swp ~\vimfiles\data\backup\~uniqueNameForMySecondPeojctfile.c.swp any help is appreciated -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
