While I don't think this is relevant to your problem, that principle doesn't hold, especially on a debian-based distro. If you type :ver in vim, on Ubuntu you'll see a line saying system vimrc file: "$VIM/vimrc" which runs /usr/share/vim/vimrc, which in turn invokes /usr/share/vim/vim73/debian.vim Regards, John Little -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
