I created a local help file, myvimnotes.txt. In that file, the Tags appear and
function correctly in Terminal Vim. I can see the pipe characters around the
"links" and the asterisks around the "targets" in both MacVim & Terminal vim.
Ctrl-] works perfectly in Terminal Vim, doesn't work at all in MacVim.

Jumping tags with Ctrl-] in Terminal Vim works fine, but in MacVim, nada. I get
"E426: tag not found" on the status line when trying to Ctrl-].

I ran :set in both Terminal & MacVim and there aren't any settings that are
raising red flags - basically the same in both.  I ran :helptags, checked file
format and permissions, and I cannot figure this one out. Checked :help
write-local-help, :help add-local-help, and didn't see anything "helpful".

Not sure why MacVim isn't recognizing the tags or tag file but Terminal Vim is
with no problem. Any suggestions from the group would really be appreciated.
Thanks.

Apart from the usual "check that your plugins isn't interfering" [1]
answer all I can think is that something has changed in Vim (the
version that ships with MacVim is much more recent than the one that
ships with OS X).

Can you reproduce the problem if you use the "Vim" binary that ships
with MacVim without the GUI?  To start it either type "mvim -v" or (if
you don't have the mvim script)

/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim

If this version doesn't work, then the problem is with core Vim in
which case I would ask that you please report to the vim_dev Google
group instead.

I can remap gA without any problems (I tried ':nnoremap gA :echo
"hi"<CR>') which makes me think one of your plugins or rc-files are
interfering.  Try going through [1] to figure out where the problem
is.

Hi,

i recently tried to install javacomplete for vim.

I followed the installation instructions and added the lines to .vimrc as
stated.


My problem is: Whenever I type <C-x><C-o> I get:
""*.java" [New File]
Cannot open file "*.java"
Press ENTER or type command to continue
Error detected while processing function
javacomplete#Complete..<SNR>28_CompleteAfterWord:
line   57:
E480: No match:
\s*\<\C\(\%(\%(public\|protected\|private\|abstract\|static\|final\|strictfp\)\s\
\+\)*\)\(class\|interface\|enum\)[ \t\n\r^L]\+\([a-zA-Z_$][a-zA-Z0-9_$]*\)[<
\t\n\r^L]".

What is going on there? I already checked that Reflection.class is generated (it
is and is in ~), thus Reflection.java was in ~/.vim/autoload/ (likewise was
javacomplete.vim and java_parser.vim).

I'm on Mac OS 10.7 with vim 7.3.

Thanks in advance,

Phillip

If you have the "mvim" script installed (it comes bundled with MacVim,
put somewhere in your path), then you can do

mvim -u NONE

Otherwise, try

/Applications/MacVim.app/Contents/MacOS/Vim -g -u NONE

i think what he ment is how to unload all the plugins within the app command.

im looking for this too

New to MacVim and looking to format code similar to to other code

I would like to open an HTML file for example, and indent the entire

I just downloaded a new version of MacVim and it seems like there's a

It sounds to me like you've accidentally downloaded the *very
outdated* Carbon port of gvim.  Go to

http://code.google.com/p/macvim/

and download the latest snapshot of MacVim.app.

in Lion scrollbars are hidden and appear only when one actually scrolls

There is no way to get Lion style scrollbars (I have commented on why
in the past, if you are interested).

However, you can hide them permanently (and this is what I do
personally).  Just add the following lines your ~/.gvimrc:

set go-=r
set go-=L

While you're at it, you may also wish to hide the toolbar to get more
space for text:

set go-=T

For more information, see ":h 'go".

I just build MacVim to pick up the python.org python, with (current master=
bcc349c).  I have python.org 32 bit python 2.6 on OSX 10.6, which was built with
gcc 4.0, so the configure command was something like (sorry):

CC=gcc-4.0 CFLAGS="-arch i386" ./configure --with-features=huge \
               --enable-rubyinterp \
               --enable-pythoninterp=dynamic \
               --enable-perlinterp \
               --enable-cscope \

Obviously `which python` finds my python.org Python 2.6, so MacVIm appeared to
pick that up at build and run time.

I tried using the --with-python-config-dir=PATH option to pick up the python.org
python, and it compiled, but seemed to lose a large proportion of its path for
reasons I did not investigate much.

Best,

Matthew

This worked great for me:

>      set editor ="mvim -f"

except that after writing the file and closing MacVim, I had to switch back to
the terminal to get back to mutt.

In the current MacVim version 7.3.390 (and maybe for much longer) the solution
is found in "help: hints":

  mvim -f -c "au VimLeave * maca hide:

Works like a charm. When I start to compose in Mutt, MacVim opens, and when I
finish the focus returns to mutt automatically.

Hi,

Just to report success building MacVim to pick up my 32 bit python.org Python
2.6, with:

CC=gcc-4.0 ./configure --with-macarchs=i386 --with-features=huge              
--enable-rubyinterp               --enable-pythoninterp=dynamic              
--enable-perlinterp               --enable-cscope

I tried the --with-python-config-dir=PATH option, and the build succeeded, but
the resulting python in vim failed to pick up large bits of the python path.

Best,

Matthew

If you want the very bleeding edge you should build your own binary

I think that's the issue.  Homebrew appears to be building a 64 bit Python etc.

I'll try exploring some of those config options and see if I can get
Homebrew to build its Python as 32 bit.

Thanks!

I built my MacVim using rvm's Ruby & perlbrew's Perl. The version of
Python was supplied my Mac Ports:

`Compilation: gcc -c -I. -Iproto -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -DFEAT_GUI_MACVIM -Wall
- -Wno-unknown-pragmas -pipe  -DMACOS_X_UNIX -no-cpp-precomp  -g -O2
- -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=1
Linking: gcc   -L.  -bind_at_load -L.  -bind_at_load
- -L/usr/local/lib -o Vim -framework Cocoa -framework Carbon
- -lncurses  -framework Cocoa    -fstack-protector -L/u
sr/local/lib -L/opt/local/lib
-
-L/Users/dobbin/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.14.2/lib/5.14.2/darwin-2level/CORE
- -lperl -lm -lutil -lc -framework Python   -lruby -lobjc  -L/Users
/dobbin/.rvm/rubies/ruby-1.8.7-p352/lib`

Python compiles pretty easily so your best bet may be to install it into
$HOME/bin, do the linking required & pass the appropriate flags to
MacVim. I think you could also ignore the OS X specific Framework for
python & just try a standard *nix install into ~/bin. I haven't tried it
but it should work (I use python nowadays via virtualenv).

Cheers,

   Phil...

It seems the problem is the gdb shipped with Mac.

This is a request, but someone may show me how to modify the mvim
command so that if I do something like:
[]$ mvim -bgl
it starts macvim with light background
and
[]$mvim -bgd
it starts in dark.

Ofcourse I would only use the command line arg for my personal non-
default background.  I usually code with a dark background, but when
using a projector, we all know the greens and blues diffuse on a dark
background, so light is more usuable.  I do use the mavim colorscheme
( which is great for me).

Thanks for any input.

Any reason why:
$ mvim -c 'set bg=light'

is not doing what you want?

You could try something with the -c flag. See:

`:h -c`

Never tried it but it may work with `colorscheme`

I opened a file (foo.f90) with macvim that had the .f90 suffix.  Then,
I realized I wanted it preprocessed.  [No jokes about fortran ...
space shuttle quality stuff ... man]. So in terminal, I moved the file
over to be foo.F90.  Of course,  MacVim notifies me that the foo.f90
files does not exist any more.  So I ":q" that tab, and command-T for
a new tab.
Then I type ":e foo.F90" in the new tab, and the buffer appears blank,
with the file name listed as "foo.f90".  Back to the lower cased
suffix.  If I starte a new macvim session: $mvim foo.F90, it opens up
fine.  Any insight?  Some buffer voodoo?

Btw..thanks for all the help.
