Vim on Cygwin: Warn that vimrc is using windows end of line char

问题

I just installed cygwin on my machine and I am just getting everything setup.

I created a softlink between .vimrc in my cygwin home dir and my windows home dir but vim is having some difficulties reading the .vimrc file since it is using windows end of line characters.

Is there some method that I can use to warn vim that my vimrc file is using windows end of line char?

Here is some output.

~ $ ls -la

From cygwin type

dos2unix.exe _vimrc

回答2:

If you have modeline enabled, you could enter this as the first line in your vimrc

" vim: se ff=unix :

of course, you'd have to fix it manually the first time around (:se ff=dos|w!)

This way you don't have to be warned, because you'll always be in the right mode for this file.

If you wanted it for all files, look at auto commands (AuCommand, e.g. BufEnter). If you wanted just to always see the fileformat, you can include it in the ruler or statusline

:he 'rulerformat'
:he 'statusline'

e.g. simplistic status line

:set statusline='%{&fileformat}'

HTH

P.S. If your file needs more fixin' because it was already mixing line-ends, you can

:%s/^M$//g

be sure to add the $ or you'd break mappings. Enter ^M as Ctrl-QEnter on windows (Ctrl-VEnter on Linux; all assuming default configs)

I have this in my status line:

hi User9 term=reverse cterm=bold ctermbg=12 gui=bold guibg=Red
set statusline=...
set statusline+=\ %9*%{&ff=='unix'?'':&ff.'\ format'}%*

What that does is that if I ever load up a file that has dos line endings, I get this nice red "dos" in my status line.

From cygwin shell, you can type:

dos2unix.exe .vimrc

This will convert your file to unix format.
