And to be more exhaustive (perhaps it's this) is here my EXINIT: EXINIT='set nu showmatch ts=8 wl=72'
The problem with wl=72 and the 80 for the size of the window and the 8 expansion for tabs? The "end" of the displayed line is for me the 72th char, the 'l'. So wl=72 and ts=8 may reproduce for you? -- Thierry Laronde <tlaronde +AT+ polynum +dot+ com> http://www.kergis.com/ http://kertex.kergis.com/ Key fingerprint = 0FF7 E906 FBAF FE95 FD89 250D 52B1 AE95 6006 F40C
