I'm using gvim 7.4.691 at the moment. I have the following in my .vimrc file to
change the color if I open a file in readonly mode:
" Use a different color background if file is opened in readonly mode.
if &readonly
highlight Normal guibg=White guifg=DarkCyan
else
highlight Normal guibg=Wheat guifg=Brown
endif
If I open gvim in read only mode without a file name, it works fine, changing
the color as I expect:
$ gvim -R
but if I open a file in read only mode and specify a file name, it does open
the file in read only mode, but with the non-readonly color.
$ gvim -R myfile.txt
My recollection is this worked as expected in some past versions of gvim some
years ago, though I don't recall when it broke.
Can anyone reproduce this and tell me if I'm doing something wrong or if this
is a bug?
Thanks ... Dan Nygren
