Tony, Charles, you seem to be the gray beards here! Thanks for the clarification. I did indeed try unpacking netrw v.147 to both locations and confirmed that they were in each. I also confirmed that all files & directories were read/execute/accessible to all and that they were not user-specific virtual instantiations (a Windows 7 feature). In both cases, I got the same behaviour i.e. when I edited a directory, I got what appeared to be an empty file. On a separate matter, even if I got netrw 147 working on the computer for which I have admin privileges, it would not be a solution for the copying of marked files by the Windows-based gvim on the locked down computer (which is where I will be spending most of my time). There are barriers to getting anything installed there. Is there another avenue I can pursue for that scenario? -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
