Hi, I'm working with samba on remote files but my problem is that cream always creates a .swp file on the remote disk. How can I force cream to create this file on let's say c:\temp on my local harddisk I already tried to add g:CREAM_CWD=C:\\Temp to cream-user.vim, but it didn't really help, so I tried to also add: set backupdir=c:\\Temp set directory=c:\\Temp set backupcopy=yes but it also didn't help, cream still creates the swap files on the samba drive. Even more strange is that in C:\Temp I have 322 files from cream for example: html.pm.~ Condition.pm.~ Trigger.pm.~ Is cream now creating two swap files? Or are these files which end with a '~' sign something else, maybe backups? If so why does cream make a backup and a swap file? Any help from a cream/vim expert would greatly appreciated because these swap files really slow things down and they mess up any 'svn st' command because you see these .swp files as new unadded files. Thanks a lot Marc |
