hi, i just thought about another great feature i loved in ultraedit: ultraedit remembers each files work-directory. when calling the "open-file"-dialog the workdir of the currently active file is shown. --------------------------------------------------------------------- example: buffer_1 = ~/htdocs/projects/templates/templates_c/index.tpl buffer_2 = ~/htdocs/projects/includes/t_engine/functions.php * if buffer_1 is the active buffer, the "open"-dialog starts in ~/htdocs/projects/templates/templates_c/. * if buffer_2 is the active buffer, the "open"-dialog starts in ~/htdocs/projects/includes/t_engine/. --------------------------------------------------------------------- i dont know if its tricky to implement in vim-script, but it'd be a nice usability-improvement i think. cheers, falk |

Hi Falk, I'm an old UltraEdit user myself (back in the days of 5.x). When I switched to Vim, this was one of the things I missed. There's an easy way to get this functionality: " Set cwd to the directory of the current buffer autocmd BufEnter * cd %:p:h HTH, William -- Knowmad Services Inc. http://www.knowmad.com |
