Re: GVIM Files Written In GVIM Ubuntu Do NOT Show Text In GVIM Windows

GVIM has a menu item for opening a session, as they call it, and that session is saved or read from in a dot vim file, and all files one saved as a session open together, screen settings restored and all. To open the sessions one must first browse through the tree to the directory in which the dot vim file and program files are stored, so the directory should not be the problem as the files are all right there with the dot vim file. A double check shows that GVIM does read an individual file correctly with File Open, but the Windows Session Open will Not read an Ubuntu Session Save with an opening of the correct files. Sounds like you are all saying no such crossover read was ever planned?

As to expecting GVIM to open a session alike between Linux and Windows, the icon is the same and the name is the same, and they download from the same web page, and I know that this is GNU stuff, but that makes a brand; and a brand editor or IDE should be able to read its own saved crossover files, sessions or not. All the other crossover IDEs I use Do read crossover files. If GVIM is planned to Not cross read, then the logo and icon really need to be different?
