that matches our conclusions (see the ticket on the FreeBSD bug-tracker) > What I do near (but not at) the top of my ~/.vimrc is source the > $VIMRUNTIME/vimrc_example.vim (which, in recent versions of Vim, > sources the defaults.vim) and then undo whatever it sets that I don't > like I don't want to have to keep up with whatever new settings get put in defaults.vim, undoing them back to what I want (i.e., what they were before this whole defaults.vim thing). I feel vim did the right thing with the "if they have a vimrc, don't source defaults.vim". As detailed at that ticket, I believe the best solution is for FreeBSD to not have a system vimrc that sources defaults.vim unconditionally, but rather to have their ports process patch the defaults.vim to contain the couple extra helper bits they want. -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
