Re: [Vim-latex-devel] Vim Latex with new file with Vim.app on Mac OS X

[coupled c. <cou...@gm...>]

Hi Ritesh,

I had the same problem on Win XP machine. The solution to your first
question is simple. Just put the following line in your _vimrc file
(or .vimrc if it is called that in Mac OS X):

let g:tex_flavor='latex'

This will solve the first part of your problem. As soon as you create
a new TeX file, the menus will appear.

I don't know about the previewers in Mac OS, but I believe you have to
set your favorite PDF viewer in texrc file. It shouldn't be difficult.

Best,
Hooman
