This didn't sound right, but I did an experiment, and by default it is quite
true. In my setup, actually, it is also true.
But if you set the 'hidden' option, it is no longer true. FileType only fires
when actually reading the file with 'hidden' set, for me at least.
Aha, I didn't think about hidden! Good catch. I see the same behaviour when I
set it, too, which solves my problem -- thanks!
I don't have 'hidden' set because I am forgetful and don't like risking that I
might do a bunch of work, go to compile, and realize I forgot to save a header
file or something.
Is there something about setting hidden that stops vim warning when you try to exit
without "!" (eg. :qa)?
