thanks for that. though, for some reason, it is erroring:

Error detected while processing /home/swilson/.vimrc:
line   74:
E475: Invalid argument: <SID>curdir = getcwd()
Press ENTER or type command to continue

while i found this
(http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/map.html#<SID>) i was unable to
figure out what the issue is.

Replace the <SID> by g:

That's what I had thought of at first, but then I thought it would cause problems if any plugin were using the same variable name.

Can't you define script-local variables in such a way that they be usable in mappings defined in that same script, the way you can with functions?

Oh, after rereading ":help <SID>": use s: in :let but <SID> in the mapping? Or define the mapping to call a function and use the s: variable inside the function?


Best regards,
Tony.
