I think, this was introduced with Vim 7.3 You can also find there the information, which Vim process has opened a file currently, so this helps determining the right Vim process for editing a file. (Unfortunately, this is not available via the script interface and therefore the recover plugin can't make use of this information) regards, Christian -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
