Ha! That's it. So, it really is just that I didn't open them in the right order. Thanks Gary for the clarification! Thanks Marvin for the initial info! So, for completeness, my commands were: :belowright vs :sp ctrl-w-<arrow to the top right window> :vs :sp ctrl-w-<arrow to the top right window> :sp :sp That did it. I then mouse set the window sizes to the way I want them Thanks again! Andy -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
