> From elsewhere in the help (:help '") you can see that this mark gets set automatically whenever you quit a buffer. It stores the last position in the buffer before quitting it. By default, this mark gets stored in your .viminfo file when you exit Vim, so it gets remembered between editing sessions also.

Hi,

I put the line in my ~/.vimrc file :

:au BufReadPost * if line("'\"") > 1 && line("'\"") <= line("$") | exe "normal! g`\"" | endif

Now upon exiting, when I open the vim and try :"", I didn't get the file back, which I wanted resume.

What wrong am I doing? Any pointer please.
