Re: SOLVED: Vim error message when opening .ini file

I'm runing Steve Gibson's DNSBench program under wine.

https://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm

It automatically creates a custom list of nearby DNS servers as a .ini file and puts it in the same directory as the program.

 

Before this, I probably have never before opened a .ini file in Vim.

this does not seem to be a typical ini file. Not sure why you are using
the .ini file extension.

Best,
