yes there is a way. You can use --remote-expr (see :h --remote-expr) or --remote-send. Checkout also :help server-functions. The vim that you use has to be run with --servername switch (actually this only matters for the terminal vim). Not that you also need to send the vim servername to your ruby script (:help v:servername). Best regards, Marcin -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
