Any Vim GUI can set the font; the problem is that only some of them (not
including yours, apparently) can tell you from which fonts it is
possible to choose. So you'll have to guess.

If you have the LucidaTypewriter font installed (on the computer where
gvim is running), you might try

:set gfn=-*-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-*-*-90-*-*-m-*-*

or else, if you have a Courier font installed there, you might try

:set gfn=-*-courier-medium-r-normal-*-*-90-*-*-m-*-*

(where 90 is the size, in tenths of point I think: the larger the
number, the bigger the font). Similarly for other font faces: I'm just
mentioning these two because they are fairly common, so there's a
substantial chance that you've got them. The -m- near the end is
essential: it means "monotype" (i.e. fixed-width); Vim won't use any
other kind of font (except on GTK2, where other kinds look ugly anyway).

Note that if in the meantime you have installed a GTK2 version of Vim,
the above settings won't work (but GTK2 gvim has the nice ":set gfn=*"
menu, so this whole discussion is moot in that case).

For more details, including how to set the font in a vimrc which is to
be used on various versions of gvim and possibly on various OSes, see
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Setting_the_font_in_the_GUI

The 'syntax' option, and the syntax plugins, only affect highlighting
(colouring, but also bolding, underlining, etc.), or rather, where
highlighted text starts and ends. (A colorscheme may define the actual
colors, unless you use the "default colours" compiled into Vim). That's
intentional.

The 'filetype' option affects the rest: indenting via an indent plugin
and a number of options like 'lisp', 'cindent', 'autoindent',
'smartindent', 'indentexpr', and I'm not sure I din't omit one or two;
the rest via a filetype-plugin.

If your vimrc includes both "filetype plugin indent on" and "syntax on"
(or if it sources the vimrc_example.vim, which issues both of these
commands) you get all three types of plugins loaded whenever you edit a
new file. Otherwise, depending on what you use in your vimrc, maybe you
get only part of them.

The syntax file for CSS should know that comments (blue text by default)
may start with /* or maybe with // but never with #, and IIUC, the
filetype-plugin should set the 'comments' option accordingly and the
indent-plugin set up indenting so that, for instance, CSS opening and
closing braces get balanced indent and outdent.

If you have used the above-mentioned commands in your vimrc, then
starting to edit a file recognized as CSS (probably because is name ends
in .css) will cause Vim to apply all three types of plugins to it
without further action; but if you start editing an empty [NoName] file,
Vim cannot read your mind to know that you mean it to be a CSS style
sheet, and setting 'syntax' to CSS isn't enough. The recommended way of
doing things is to give your file a CSS name right at the start; or
else, if you never intend to save the file, setting 'filetype' to css
(which will also set 'syntax') (or setting it to html etc. for an
embedded style sheet) will cause your style rules to be recognized as
what they are.

Tony.

conflicting options: smartindent & 'fo+=a'

I am trying to insert a bunch of ugly text in 'css', and using
syntax='css', si, (tried w/ai & /noai), and using formatoptions
tag 'a'.

I'm running into a minor conflict versus what I expect.

Any time a line starts with a '.', everything gets indented
a further level (even though there's no nesting).

As near as I can tell, what's happening is this:

input:
---
.sel {
blah;
blah2;
}

.sel2 {
bbb;
ccc;
}

next {
xxx;
}
---
becomes:
.sel { blah;
blah2; }

.sel2 { bbb;
ccc; }

next { xxx; }
-----------

The closing brace's for '.sel' and '.sel2' are not being matched
by the 'autoindent' algorith. Reason: 'ai' looks for closing
brace in column 1 -- which it IS, in the input. However the 'fo+=a'
option apparently gets a hold of the closing brace before 'ai'
sees it and it puts it on the previous line (thus no longer in
column 1). So 'ai' never sees the closing quote.

What eventually caused (causes) the indent to be reset is
a css "ID" selector definition. CSS id selector definitions
start with '#'. Vim, of course, believes it to be a
comment, and sets the indent from what is then about '60' back
to 0.

Um...
Observations.

Apparently the setting of 'syntax=' doesn't really effect a mode
switch as far as actual input, but only affects coloring?

Sigh.

How unreasonable would it be for me to want 'syntax' settings to
also apply to how 'si' and inserting "#" and indent keywords and
...well, whatever other auto-formatting features are in vim.

Is that something that would need to be done on a syntax-by-syntax
file basis?

==OR== is expecting (or wanting) that to be done in syntax
files overloading 'syntax' files -- as they are only designed for
visual syntax hilighting and not modifying vim's input parameters to
be congruent with the visual syntax?
I.e. is a 'input-syntax' file type needed? (I'd sorta hope not,
but I ask) The only reason I ask is based on whether or not it

not common nor expected, then there's a "whole" people aren't

input options, BUT, neither is it being provided in the current
syntax file collection (maybe there are exceptions?)

netrc syntax - adding 'account'

Hi.

I have noticed that vim 7.2's syntax file for ~/.netrc does not have support for 'account' keyword (which is probably quite rare but still used for various not-even-related-to-FTP purposes), so I added it myself. It's a very minor change - <http://sprunge.us/VgZX> - but I still would like it to be included with the next version of vim ('account' is defined in manpage of ftp(1)). Being very new to the vim community and everything, I'm asking where should I ask for that.

Thanks for reading.

You want to have Windows insert the -o or -O flags to Vim prior to the
file list. You can do this in a few places:

1. You can use a file association so that right-clicking on several
selected files and selecting "Open" will do what you want. This will
also let you double-click to open a single file in a new Vim. See
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Windows_file_associations for details.

2. You can use the Windows "Send To" menu to allow you to right-click
on one of the selected files and chose a command from the "Send To"
submenu. See http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Add_Vim_to_Windows_Send_To_menu
for details.

3. You can find the registry entry that contols the "Edit files in
single Vim" context menu entry and edit that with regedit. I'm not
sure if we have a tip on this, I vaguely remember seeing something to
this effect.

Not having used any of these editors, I can only go by your
description and what I've anecdotally heard about it being a
full-screen distraction-removal editor. :)

> Vim window maximized,

Usually this is a function of your window manager, whether the
Windows/Mac/X "Maximize" button, or in some X window-managers
such as Fluxbox (many others do too...I just happen to use flux)
have the ability to map a keys to toggle window chrome and
maximize the window and then remember that at startup of the app.
I usually use (non-g)vim in a chromeless xterm which starts up at
80x25 but I can maximize vertically, horizontally, or both with a
single key-chord.

That said, you can use a combination of :winpos and
'lines'/'columns' to have vim move and resize to right-ish
dimensions in gvim.

:winpos 0 0
:set lines=68 columns=140

> buffer text with large fields on left/right,

On the left, you can either number your lines and set the
number-column width:

:set number numberwidth=8

or you can fudge it using foldcolumns:

:set foldcolumn=8

Right margin is a lot harder to implement without inserting
linebreaks (which you mention you don't want), but if linebreaks
were okay, you could use the 'wrapmargin' setting.

> auto wrapping to next line without inserting linebreaks.

:set wrap wrapmargin=0 textwidth=0 linebreak

> Is it possible?

Mostly? :) You can read more details about them at

:help :winpos
:help 'lines'
:help 'columns'
:help 'number'
:help 'numberwidth'
:help 'foldcolumn'
:help 'wrap'

If you don't want to use a function, it's not quite the same position, but
is the same line, plus an alternative for the line below. I use one of
these all the time:
" Add a blank line, position cursor above blank.
map <A-Enter> o<Up><Esc>
" Add a blank line, position cursor below blank.
map <A-Enter> o<Esc>

If all you're trying to do is create the line, then perhaps something

How escape chars in strings in functions

Hi all,

Vim 7.2 on Linux. I'm having problems getting my head around how to
escape chars in a string used within a function. BTW, I'm a programmer
and experienced vim user, but new to vim scripting.

I want to insert some html tags at current cursor location, not the next
line.

String to insert:
<a href="#footnote1" id="back1">[1]</a>

Based on strings surrounded by '' not being interpreted, as per the help,
I was going to use:
put='<a href="#footnote1" id="back1">[1]</a>'

but it bombs out at the '=' after href. The string *is* being interpreted.

However, if I use the string in a variable and append it using exe:
let footnote = '<a href="#footnote1" id="back1">[1]</a>"
exe "normal a" . footnote

it works fine. Clearly I don't understand when escapes are needed and why
exe works but put doesn't.

Can anyone point me to where in the manual you can find out about these
things?

Thanks,

Split window automatically when opening 2 or 3 files

Hi,

I want to have Vim (on Windows), automatically split the window if I open two files (using right-click explorer integration - Open in Single VIM Window).

Actually, a new right-click integration that did this (Open in split VIM Window), would be perfect.

Is there anyway to do this?

Thanks, Brock

Accelerate formatting of 4000 lines into 4000 new

Hi Christian,

I am using one method to take data present in each line of a 4000
lines' file but I would like your advise to accelerate process cause
it takes 10 seconds.

First I am a pattern that recognize some data in each parsed line,
this is it :

let g:patternItemLine = '^.*item foo="\([^"]\+\)\/\(\w\+\)"\s\+foobar
\s*="\([^"]\+\)"\s\+barfoo\s*="\([^"]\+\)"\s\+Type\s*="\([^"]\+\)".*$'

Then I send a g command in order to make the job only on <item lines
in a file that contains other lines'type :
silent g/<item\s/call PROCESS(getline(line('.')))

func! PROCESS(line)

let l:lineArranged = substitute(a:line, g:patternItemLine, '{ "\2",
\3, 0, FALSE, ITEM_\5, OPC_READABLE|OPC_WRITEABLE, \4, USER_FRONTAL|
USER_MAINTENANCE, 0, 0, 0, 0, "\1" },', "")
d)
let g:newContent .= l:lineArranged . "\n"
return ''
endfunc

This call of PROCESS take 10 seconds cause I am analysing the current
line, substituting using 5 backref and concat to a newContent var.

Have you got some idea to accelerate process.
Thank you

I have to declare subst like that I think : let subst = {}

I think this command is very powerful, I didn't know this combination
of (join and other stuff).

E484 when setting filetype

Whenever I do a set filetype=mason, or it is done from
any file in ~/.vim/ I get an error (translated by me from
Swedish, so the actual English wording may be different):

"Error detected while processing of Syntax Autocommands
E484: can't open file /usr/share/vim/vim71/syntax/mason.vim"

/usr/share/vim/vim71/ doesn't exist anymore on my machine,
but I don't get the error with other filetypes. The error
is not anywhere in ~/.vim/, as far as I can tell.

Doing ln -s /usr/share/vim/vim72/ /usr/share/vim/vim71/
"fixes" the problem, but I guess there is a proper way,
and a real error somewhere with something specifically
naming /usr/share/vim/vim71/ when it shouldn't.
How can I find out?

Tim I don't understand your joke sentence cause I am not english.

You missunderstood my pb cause I was not enought accurate in my
description.

It is not foo1, foo2 to foo7 but

foo to change to bar
oof to change to rab
ofo to change to abr
fof to change to arb
etc...

all word are different

About variable or buffer, I don't search for conveniences but for good
response time of my script process.
I believed from a previous post that I had to avoid normal command or
exec 'norm' command and that storing data
into string was more efficient than using visual thing (into a buffer)
like moving or editing commands via normal or exec call

Hardly.  The fields, as shown above, are aligned with spaces appropriately intercalated.  Initial whitespace is another issue; there are three options for dealing with it (see :help alignctrl-w, alignctrl-W, and alignctrl-I).

 Or am I misunderstanding what the plugin does or can do when the separator is white space?   

I suspect that you have some option set that I don't (or possibly vice versa) that's interfering.  Perhaps you could try having the following in a file called "simple.vimrc":

set nocp
syn on
filetype plugin on

and using   vim -u simple.vimrc yourtestfile

and \tsp with it.  This will still load all your current plugins, one of which may somehow be interfering with Align.

 Yes, but I'm not using any kind of selection - I'm using the syntax as defined in the help file:  :[range]Align \tsp :[range]Align \Tsp :[Range]Align \tsq ... etc.  [..]   

From an earlier note you'd said that you selected lines using ctrl-v.  That's visual block selection; the alignmaps will treat that the same as "V" (visual line selection).  It results in a range of lines.

So to determine why the alignmaps aren't working will take some investigation (are plugin/AlignMapsPlugin.vim, autoload/AlignMaps.vim, etc in the proper places, what is the result of   :verbose map \tsp? etc), or perhaps you could simply get the latest version      

(http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#ALIGN)      

and install it:    vim align.vba.gz   :so %   :q     

 Had done that just in case, but it gets me a screenful of messages where all the <leader>xx's installed by the plugin are already mapped. I had removed the 'lenny' version, and started a fresh instance of Vim, so I don't know.   

Something in your setup is definitely odd.  All of the vim script portions of the various Align files are protected against double-loading; ie. for autoload/Align.vim, at the beginning is:

if exists("g:loaded_Align") || &cp
 finish
endif

This snippet essentially says that "if the autoload/Align.vim has already been loaded, don't load it again".  Your home directory is normally loaded first, so it should have prevented the systemwide lenny version from interfering.

 Anyway the version from your web site does exactly the same, just removes leading blanks on every line that happens to have them.   The more I think about it, it's probably me misunderstanding what the plugin should be doing when spaces are used as separators.   

Again, what does

  :verbose map \tsp?

show (that question mark needs to be there)?

If you take line 15 above for instance, there are seven spaces after
ErrorMSg, while line 16 has fourteen between Visual and ctermbg=61.

What's the plugin supposed to do?

The right thing to do as I see it would be to collapse all contiguous
spaces so that there is only one space separating fields, and then
expand them so that field1, field2, field3, etc. on each line starts in
the same column.

But then that's because that's what _I_ want the plugin to do for me in
this particular case.. :-)

Can an item appear more than once (for which you only want to replace
the first match), or is it okay to use the "g" flag?

If you can do all of them, I'd just use (check for levels of escaping,
as I'm not sure the "\ze" should be "\\ze"...it's untested, but close
enough to get you the idea)

substitute(l:lineArranged, 'foo\ze[1-7]', 'bar', 'g')

I see you're still trying to do this with variables rather than dealing
with lines in a buffer -- you'll find Vim affords many more conveniences
for working with lines-in-buffers than it does for manipulating
variables. So I'll continue to urge you to consider changing your
methodology, even if you continue to disregard it :)

let l:lineArranged = substitute(l:lineArranged, 'foo2', 'BAR2', "")

If you use git, tselectfiles can get the list of files from there by
setting b:trag_git to the absolute path to the git repos.
Alternatively, you can use a manifest file (set b:trag_project to the
full pathname thereof) which you can create with (this is gnu
findutils' find)

find DIRS -name "*.xx" > manifest.txt

or

find DIRS | grep -e "\.\(ext1\|ext2\|ext3\)$$" > manifest.txt

or something similar. I usually have such a goal in my makefile.

The aforementioned project plugin is a popular alternative but AFAIK
it is unmaintained and (in my experience) buggy.

vim -c

Hi,

I am launching several script like that :

vim -c "call funcScript()" -c "call func2Script()" -c "qa!"

I have the message --Plus-- when screen is full and there are some
others things to display.

How can I force the vim -c execution to display without confirm --
Plus-- message and avoid typing in order to have a selfrun?

Thanks

I'll check out tselectfiles (any particular other plugin you recommend

The reason I can't use stuff like :tabedit is that I handle huge
project with thousands of files. It can take me minutes to find a
specific file in such a huge hierarchy, so I must have 1 place that is

If I read syntax/javascript.vim correctly you need to enable syntax
based folding by setting :let javaScript_fold=1 in e.g. your .vimrc.

However there seems to be a bug with syntax based folding, which

Re: filelist window ?

2009/12/29 Ramagudi Naziir <naziirr@gmail.com>

Hi!

I really really want something like taglist but for files:
A window that will show me the list of files in my project,
in which i can easily find my files.
E.g., a user can type the name or part of the file name he is looking
for,
the the list of file names will be narrowed down and he could just
choose his file to open easily.

the file list should have all the files in the project (recursively
looking for files in subdirectories).

any idea how I can acheive this ?

 Like Tom says, there are several plugins that achieve this, but I hate wasting as much screen space.

Instead of that, when I need to pick for some file, I simply execute ":tabedit ." (note the final dot) which opens current directory in new tab.

Of course, I like working with tabs. If you prefer to open it in new window, then you can simply make :Sex (again, NOTE the colon ;-))

Cheers.

There are several plugins that achieve this -- tselectfiles being one
of them: http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=1865

For bigger files you might want to generate a manifest/files file. You
could then use vim's own gf to jump to that file.

I don't think there's a native way to do it, but you can post-process
the register into which you recorded it to remove the last item (the
<esc>), something like this (untested)

[record macro into "a", go into insert mode, do stuff, press <esc>
and press "q" to stop recording]
:let @a=@a[:-2]

which should snip off the terminal <esc> from the macro stored in @a

I tried:

It works great.

You could make the "implementation" mapping be defined for visual
mode, then map normal-mode <F5> to V<F5> and insert mode <F5> to
<C-o>V<F5>, or something like that, but then using <F5> in normal or
insert mode would clobber the '< and '> marks. You could split out
the important part of the implementation into a cmap, and have normal,
insert, and visual all be mapped to something that gets into
command-line mode with the correct leading range, and then invokes
that cmap, but that's almost certainly more trouble than it's worth.
It's probably best to just define the map multiple times.

Try using :nmap instead of :nnoremap.

:iab x hello
:nmap W oa x b<esc>

I don't know if this is explicitly documented anywhere, but it makes
sense when you think about it: if the purpose of noremap'ing is to
make sure that your map always behaves the same way, it makes sense
that it would disable both maps and abbreviations.

Oops, I neglected that part.

Your explicit visual-mode mapping works on every line because pressing
':' in visual mode automatically enters a range of '<,'> to your Ex
command, which means to run the Ex command on the visual selection. I
do not think you will be able to use <F5> in your mapping after all,
without some logic to determine what mode you are in, in which case it

I would read :help java.vim to see if there are any options that might
affect the folding. However, a quick look at the syntax file shows a
highlight group that does not "contain" and is not "containedin"
anything, nor do any other syntax groups contain it. This is somewhat
suspicious to me. I don't code in Java, so I have no idea whether
folding works in general, but I know it is a relatively recent
introduction to the syntax file because we have a few tips on the wiki
about adding folding to java syntax. If you do not receive any
responses back, try contacting the maintainer listed on $VIMRUNTIME/
syntax/java.vim header comment.

The rest of your response was valid, but it is NOT a good idea to do a
set-= with multiple letters, because if you do, it will only work if
the letters appear together exactly as you have them. For example, the
command given above will work on the formatoptions string 'tcrq' but
not on the option string 'tcorql', on which it will do nothing.
Instead do each letter separately, like "setlocal fo-=c fo-=r"

That's odd -- because it works for me, with your example as given
below. Now, although the Align command itself works with visually
selected blocks, the maps don't work with ctrl-v selected blocks (ie.
such visual blocks are treated as visually selected line ranges, like
"V"). One way to get the maps to work with visual blocks is with
vis.vim; you can get vis.vim from:

http://vim.sourceforge.net/scripts/script.php?script_id=1195 (stable)
http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VIS
(cutting edge)

With it, use ctrl-v to select the visual block and then :B \tsp (for
example).

Well, align/alignmaps doesn't come with vim, although it appears that
debian lenny adds it in on their own. That install procedure is also
not the standard way to install align/alignmaps, its a debian-lenny
"thing", and so I'm not familiar with it (I use fedora, myself). So to
determine why the alignmaps aren't working will take some investigation
(are plugin/AlignMapsPlugin.vim, autoload/AlignMaps.vim, etc in the
proper places, what is the result of :verbose map \tsp? etc), or
perhaps you could simply get the latest version
(http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#ALIGN) and install it:

vim align.vba.gz

By the way, I did read

:help :syn-end
:help :syn-contains
:help :syn-contained
:help :syn-keepend

But still out of luck. With javascript either everything is folded
between the first { and the last } (which means the entire file is
folded, not each function separately) or no folds are found.

Well, the help summarizes the differences fairly succinctly: do you
want abbreviations to be expanded or not? Do you want the InsertLeave
autocommand event to trigger. According to the help, it looks like
abbreviations can get expanded in mappings[1] but I didn't get them to

:iab x hello
:nnoremap Q oa x b<esc>

and then using Q to insert the text, I just get a line with "a x b"

If you just want to execute the most recent Ex command (such as your :s
command), it's available as a register/macro, so you can re-execute it with

@:

and subsequent re-executions (which I often end up doing) can be rerun with

@@

(which is faster/easier to type, IMHO)

:help @:
:help @@

If you need to dig further back in your command-line history, it's just
a ^P away, or you can hit ^F (by default, though overrideable) from the
command-line, or in normal-mode use

q:

to bring up the command-line editing window.

:help c_ctrl-p
:help c_ctrl-n
:help cmdwin

Hope this helps you hack some more.

browse in the quickfix window

Hi,

In the quickfix window (opened by :cw), I hit a ENTER on an item and
the cursor jumps to the main window, this is fine in some cases. But
what do I do if I want the cursor stay on the quickfix window and just
like to see the contents of the other window changes?

Thanks.

Re: Concatenate each items of two Lists

let globalList = map(list1, 'v:val . list2[v:count]')

I am not too sure, why are you using v:count. I don't think it is applicable.

see :h v:count

Ropevim plugin and command :RopeGoToDefinition should be enough.
