I have no idea about this. Given that you can also use the ':e'-command to open netrw I think it has very low priority.

Maybe try creating a documents folder inside the /storage/emulated/0/ directory. I think from inside Vim Touch you will be able to refer to that as ~/documents, so that your existing configuration works. > One thought is to put my .vimrc as vimrc in /vim, as you suggest, > and handle the conflict regarding the location of the folder > mentioned above in the .vimrc the way you suggest here.

That mostly depends on your personal preference and the length of your .vimrc file. I try to keep only one .vimrc, but my vimrc is over 600 lines, so maintaining multiple copies would be a disaster. I do however also maintain a 'mini-vimrc'-file with the (for me) bare minimum config, which I use on my Raspberry Pi and on servers. > With a little more experience with the tablet under my belt I am > still thinking about returning the Nexus 7---I have 14 days from > date of purchase to do so---and exchanging it for a nexus 7.

Before the Nexus 7, I had a 10" tablet (from Eken) because I suspected that a 7" would be to small. Now that I have a 7", I actually prefer that because it is much more convenient to take with me. But on the Nexus 7 in landscape mode you only have a few lines available for the content of your file as the keyboard fills up half the screen, as you can see on this screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/576imukfgedxter/Screenshot_2013-04-23-22-20-44.png (I have the font size set to 14pt in Vim Touch). In portrait there is a lot more space, but the hackers keyboard becomes really tiny. On my Nexus 4 (4.7") I use also use the hackers keyboard for Vim Touch but there I use the compact qwerty layout for portrait (it's somewhere in the settings of the keyboard). To type more then a few words I prefer a hardware keyboard anyway as it types better and gives me more room on the screen to see text. > I know Google is supposed to have an upgraded nexus 10 coming out > sometime in the next few months, but I vaguely recall something > about a new nexus 7 fairly soon.

But that's only speculation and there will always be newer versions of devices. Buy an iPad 3 and next months Apple announces the iPad mini-4-S-now-super-super-super-fast-with-free-steve-jobs-sticker :) Jeroen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.17 (GNU/Linux) iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJRdvALAAoJEBrqc/v4ufiMm7IP/R6+K2p3kSetTxENSHAViANg ukq2UFEzaE71xPjf2IY/s7XDHXd6x8NZjRIvQ0J4XSKnG2wXm0Dfg+2PxQ2jNm/K S9Hk2khKiLiHplRB0BH641g2rrUy/MxTUHXSqcm+Zi6gaRWcxlGy4zoHTxGOove9 O7welN45VJywsT9ccZIUqR9TPW14BxIYtGS+pkErvBhfO2hgQj2xhTSlg6q/0mMQ 6bwzWQUsb2mO76EuHmY4pMBZqRkeVuhI7cbgNu9OlatwJNeP4Gwu80BtEhJRaKvq fDnPIVC616/1W3jM+9/BbOEtVuTv8bZEf4iRoy6SGZX6X9+Xn7ua+p1Kl04Lz4tT hLxDJWd3bnXMJQPLT6G5MTRCfRvv9/FbzWTj3Xm39lh4Irwcc26lzqyspHP2v9j3 84HzrY9iIavEQTRmtOjytO1xdWqQcqVwB4tbaNeSH0/W4j3eJdDFc412wzRgWYli IvfhnwgQRLKuQ0JtJ0PZVbJYesN4Z/TEvtLWw8jm8Z0lnb+2D+jm+43pln1v7ZTz 0DMCl4IB67C9qo74aMpB/jrTey3wLN1521tOZqfmwOzpnP9tR6o4mzRxQ71iN+pe 30kZcGovoKiWp2MSLF6Suq4/tluYhQLXs7K08jrYr+P9urEF1KWcPS6UpAW64vcE RCO6PRsMjpqdKRjaHuVl =QQH+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
