That would make it very hard to modify the 'cs=' field in the linux entry in the termcap file. That coupled with the fact that the comment indicates that the termcap file is intended for am Amiga might lead one to believe that the termcap file which is distributed with vim is not the one to which I was referring. >Yes, you are right, but that wasn't, what I meant :) Anyway, with >Sergey's last coolview it isn't necessary to change anything. >Scrolling even in console windows with scrollbars works perfectly !!! No argument there. I'm a big fan of Sergey's work. In fact, I just made a few modifications to his latest source to get a gnuwin32 version of zsh working. So, now I have exactly the same environment on 12 UNIX platforms and 1 NT box. I'm pretty happy with that. -- http://www.bbc.com/ cgf AT bbc DOT com "Strange how unreal VMS=>UNIX Solutions Boston Business Computing the real can be." - For help on using this list (especially unsubscribing), send a message to "gnu-win32-request AT cygnus DOT com" with one line of text: "help".
