thanks Christian. At long last I have found something that I like
better about that editor that starts with 'e'. Since that is
pretty much the only thing I like better .... I wonder if the
following is possible in vim :

Disable the installation of filetype-specific menus.
Of course I could do it by tweaking the code of the .vim source
file, but that is a "rigged" solution IMHO. Is there a vim
command that would stop a menu from being loaded in the first
place?
This would be useful if I were using an alternate computer, such
as one of my netbooks with a small screen which might not be able
to accomadate the number of menus that might accumulate if I have
a session with multiple filetypes.

thanks
