I use these function keys on Linux with no problems (the zz is lower case, not upper case and was done to get rid of some strange behavior on OpenSuse 11.2 until I altered what caused it not to come back to where I was at but shoved the line to the bottom of the window).
map <F5> :n<CR>zz map <F6> :rew<CR>zz map <F7> :wn<CR>zz map <F8> :w!<CR>zz map <F12> :x!<CR> These function keys do not work with 7.3 on Windows. I cannot remember for sure but I think they did work with 7.2. I have the _vimrc file in these two locations: %UserProfile%\_vimrc %ProgramFiles%\Vim The Wiki mentions $Home for Windows. You have your choide of these two environment variables: %UserProfile% and %HomePath%. I prefer the former because it has the drive letter and I am frequently on E:, a FAT32 file system and F:, a USB FAT32 file system. I also have these environment variables Vim=C:\Program Files\Vim VimRunTime=C:\Program Files\Vim\vim73 (the second had vim72 when I was using GVim 7.2) Here is the contents of the_vimrc file: http://www.securemecca.com/tmp/vimrc.txt I am normally starting vim via a gvimi.bat file in cmd.exe. Here is what is in that file: http://www.securemecca.com/tmp/gvimi.txt However, even when I just right click on a file and select edit with gvim the function keys still don't work. If anybody knows why it doesn't work and knows what I am doing wrong please let us all know the right way to do it. Cross e-mail me to hhhobbit(gnat)gmail.com since I only read the digest version and may miss the answer. Thanks. -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
