I've never seen that problem, and I use shellslash in my config. Does it work with launching Vim as follows? gvim -N -u NONE -U NONE -i NONE --cmd "set shellslash" fb17X/content/firebug/chrome.js I know that the 'shellslash' option can make shellescape() do bad things on Windows, and it makes paths copied from Vim or passed to shell commands sometimes fail, but I don't know of any other ill effects. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
