Hello, Running vim -g (vim in "graphical" mode) on Linux.
Vim seems to place itself in background (in terms of process, not graphical display) upon starting up. The command by which vim was started completes and the shell prompt is once again available while vim is still running. Is it possible to tell vim not to do this? Under some circumstances, it would be useful to keep the Linux shell waiting until vim has finished (for instance, if vim were invoked from within a shell script and subsequent commands require that the editing has finished). Thank you for any help you can provide, and my apologies if this is a repeated (or offensively simple) question. -- Rob -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
