What happens if you hover the mouse over a line of text in the buffer? I think, it doesn't work in an empty line, there must be some content for it to work. Do you get an error message? Make sure your vim is built with +balloon_eval (Use :version to confirm). Use :verbose set balloonexpr? ballooneval? to confirm where it was last set and that it is set to your values above and not to something differently by a (filetype) plugin. regards, Christian -- Hallo Marillenschnapstrinker! -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
