Hi,
At a customer site, all users home dirs are set to the same $HOME.
The way I see it, this is an abuse of the definition of $HOME. Each
login name should correspond to a different home directory; usually the
path contains the username as one of its elements.
How do I have a unique settings file? Can I specify a personal settings
file on the command line?

Yes you can, see :help -u
However Vim will not automagically set 'nocompatible' when -u has been
used. You have to set it yourself, preferably as the first command in
your startup script.
Also, using -u overrides any user vimrc ($HOME/.vimrc or $HOME/_vimrc)
and any system vimrc ($VIM/vimrc, may be changed at compile-time) — none
of them will be sourced, unless explicitly specified as the operand of a
:source command in a script which _is_ sourced.
Best regards,
Tony.
