Now attempting to use gvim, it is not working correctly for me in the same smooth way that emacs does. Clicking on a note should simply take you to the line and column in the editor. This is the command invoked to do that with gvim:

This is usually due to a too small 'cmdheight' setting (q.v.). The
default is 1 but 2 or 3 often gives a smoother functioning.

I have the following in my vimrc for this; if you still get the error
after making the change and restarting Vim, then try replacing the
digit 2 (twice) by a 3:

if exists('+cmdheight') && (&ch < 2)
set ch=2
endif
