The OP is exiting Vim, so the :messages command won't be available. If you're running Vim in terminal mode from a Linux shell, you can use script: 1. Run script. This starts a new shell. 2. Run vim. 3. Exit vim. 4. Exit the shell. 5. Open the typescript file and look for the error message. HTH, Gary -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
