I am running openSUSE v 13.1, konsole v 2.11.3, gvim v 7.4.729
if I start a gvim session from the konsole command line it assumes the same dimensions as konsole -- if I instead start gvim from the alt-F2 run starter it assumes whatever dimensions I have specified in my startup script, or it defaults to a cute 25 line by 80 column display
can someone tell me how to end the tyranny of konsole sizing my gvim windows?
I wonder if you have aliasing vis 'search' going on.
no aliases for vim, but I use the heck out of sym-links -- g for gvim and v for vim -- much easier to type and totally irrelevant to the resizing problem
if i use 'gvim' i get small windows, but different positions for each of your two use cases.
but if in the xterm of the konsole window I run 'vim' or 'vi' it appears as you describe, the complete window.
as it is designed
When I run 'alias' I don't see anything to do with vim or gvim or vi Please don't get confused between bash's 'alias' and the email alias mechanism.
yes I know what aliases are in bash -- I have dozens of them for changing directory
There is also 'alternatives'. I don't have any set up for vim, gvim or vi
I know what vim I am executing, I compile it myself -- for me it resides on /usr/local/bin, and this too is irrelevant to the resizing problem I have a work-around, alt-F2, and hope we can end this thread -- clearly no-one here knows how to end konsole's tyranny and poking around with irrelevancies is helping no-one -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
