Hello,

I started to use a new computer where, as I expected for a default
behaviour, swap files are created in the current directory. But 
that happens only for the first file opened for a given screen or 
window. 

If I split the window (using :sp or :vsp) and open different files 
on each split, those files will have their corresponding swap files 
created somewhere else (/var/tmp).

I tried specifying a specific directory for swap file in my .vimrc
inserting a line such as:
 
set directory=~/.vim/swap_files//
 
but it had effect only for the main file edited. Swap files for 
subsequent files edited on each split continue to be created on 
/var/tmp.

Does anybody know what I have to do to have only one location for 
all swap files?
 
Thank you.
