Hi, using gVim on Windows 7. I would like to open remote file from Linux on my Windows box and edit it in gVim for Windows.
I did the following: 1. From Putty program I have renamed PSCP.exe file to scp.exe and copied it to C:\Windows\System32\ directory. 2. Started gVim and typed in a command: :e scp://username@server//path/to/file 3. File opens successfully. But like I see there is "end of line" character problem. 4. On Linux box I opened vim and typed in a text: a a So two letters a with new line. 5. I executed :%!xxd to get the hexadecimal display of characters and I get: 61 0A 61 So 61 is letter a, and 0A is a "new line" character. 6. After executing "e scp..." command on gVim for Windows and executing :%!xxd on Windows I get: 61 0D 0A 61 So 61 is letter a, 0D is a carriage return and 0A is new line. So file was automatically converted from Unix EOL file format to Windows EOL format. 7. But when I save a file on gVim on Windows with :w and check the file on vim for Linux with :%!xxd command I see Windows EOL file format has preserved. How to make this EOL conversion to work without a problem between Windows and Linux using gVim? -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
