I have my master vimrc file identified by the environment variable VIMINIT
and I also have a local .vimrc file in the current directory. When I begin
editing a file in this directory, the custom commands in the local .vimrc
file are read. However, if I edit the .vimrc file in another window and
then source the file from my editing session with:
:source .vimrc
the changes are not read! Now, I have been doing this for many years and it
always worked fine, so what is the problem now? I tried specifying:
:source ./.vimrc
:source <full_directory_path>/.vimrc
and neither of these worked. However, if I exit the editing session and
restart vim, then the changes are seen upon startup!
It appears as though the source command is not working. Is this a bug in
this version of vim? Is there a new "feature" that I need to properly set
that might be denying source from working? Is there a workaround for this?
Thanks for any help you can offer.
Regards,
