Re: how can I distinguish buftype when buffer is opened?

Aaron,

  Can you just wrap the :new with the options and a function to set up the buffer in a command?

Thank you,

bob

Thanks, but I should have explained that I already tried that and it doesn't work.  I know that BufWinEnter is supposed to get run after modelines, but apparently the +cmd commands get executed after modelines...and the BufWinEnter events.

In JavaScript, a common pattern to run some code after the page has finished loading is to schedule a function to run at 0 seconds in the future (none of the timer-driven events get processed until after the page is fully loaded).  I wondered if there was a corresponding pattern in vimscript and if that's what I needed to do in this case.
