Ben Fritz's counsel to set 'cmdheight' to 2 or more is a good one
anyway, because there are many circumstances in which Vim will (try to)
display two lines of messages in the command-line area.

I have

if &cmdheight < 2
set cmdheight=2
endif

in my vimrc for this reason (and the "if" wrapper to allow a higher
value to be set on the command-line).


Best regards,
Tony.
