Re: How to start windows version gvim for cygwin correctly?


Thank you for you script. I don't change $HOME, $VIM, $VIMRUNTIME in cygwin,
because I'm afraid there are some potential conflicts. Do I have to worry
about that.
Instead, I add the -i and -u option to invoke gvim. It works. BTW, what's
the best place to store cyg-wrapper.sh . I store it to /usr/bin. Is /bin
better?

alias gvim='cyg-wrapper.sh "D:/Progra~1/vim/vim61/gvim.exe -u
D:/Progra~1/vim/_vimrc -i

D:/Progra~1/vim/_viminfo" --binary-opt=-c,--cmd,-T,-t,--servername,--remote-
send,--remote-expr --cyg-verbose --fork=2'
