Note, this will only benefit those using the win32 native version of vim.exe. function vi { VIMFILES=; for FILE; do VIMFILES="$VIMFILES `cygpath -w $FILE`"; done; vim $VIMFILES; } CAUTION: Do not name the function vim and do not alias vim=vi. If you do either you'll create a circular reference which doesn't resolve. == - \\||// -------------o0O0--Earnie--0O0o-------------- -- earnie_boyd AT yahoo DOT com -- -- http://www.freeyellow.com/members5/gw32 -- ----------------ooo0O--O0ooo----------------- PS: Newbie's, you should visit my page. _________________________________________________________ DO YOU YAHOO!?
