When I try sourcing the script as written, I get errors, because of the first '|' which is not only unnecessary but actually incorrect. When I remove that character and try the command, on either an empty buffer or a file buffer, I see it working just fine without errors. Note you can also just use redraw! instead of exe ":redraw!". -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
