If you're running Cygwin/X (installed xinit) you should install Cygwin gvim(/X)
for local use and run gvim clients from remote systems on your X server e.g.
$ ssh -f -Y ubuntu-remote gvim ...
WOW!! THANKS!!
I didn't know that one could do this. Works exactly as I wanted. I appreciate
it, Brian.
So, this is working great, with the exception that the cygwin xterm font
display is so much sharper that the GVim display. It's the same .vimrc, but
the difference is GVim is from running this command,
$ ssh -f -Y jic@web gvim w/default.website/Musicos.html
That will depend on the client installed on the remote host!
Get them to upgrade to gvim 9 as on Windows ;^>
and the other that looks good is doing,
ssh jic@web
password:
$ vim w/default.website/Musicos.html
This latter displays so much clearer and colorful, while the GVim under X is
ugly, dark and the font is not sharp. Any thoughts/suggestions/help would is
appreciated. Thanks.
That is just running on the default remote terminal ...xterm... something.
Check what your ssh is running under, then specify that in your remote command,
before your vim command.
