Hi Tony, When I type that command in vim window, it gives me nothing. It just returns the cursor position to its initial position. Am I supposed to type it some where else?
Hi Ben Fritz, I looked into the vimrc and there is no statusline keyword anywhere in the file. I didn't customize my vi and just use what ever was set up by CentOS people. --Farid ________________________________________ From: Tony Mechelynck [[email protected]] Sent: Saturday, October 01, 2011 8:19 PM To: [email protected] Cc: Ismail, Mohd F.

If it's 0 (zero), then the 'ruler' feature wasn't included at compile-time. BTW, Vim 7.2 is obsolete now (though admittedly less than the Vim 5.x I saw someone use recently). The current version is 7.3.329.
