There appears to be a bug with the way that Windows XP cmd.exe handles the quoting, and the documented procedure fails for me. Stephen has updated the docs: http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/ExtdiffExtension#Create_Custom_extdiff_Commands to say that ~/.hgrc should contain (two lines): cmd.vimdiff = gvim opts.vimdiff = -f '+next' '+execute "DirDiff" fnameescape(argv(0)) fnameescape(argv(1))' The last line (shown wrapped to two lines here) fails to work on Windows XP with cmd.exe shell. The following works on Windows XP and Linux: opts.vimdiff = -f "+next" "+execute 'DirDiff' fnameescape(argv(0)) fnameescape(argv(1))" Testing with the documented procedure worked on Linux, but on Windows XP, the command line arguments are (each line is one argument, as passed to the program): gvim -f '+next' '+execute DirDiff fnameescape(argv(0)) fnameescape(argv(1))' c:\temp\extdiff.4myj1z\DD.7184f5543c34\a b C:\try\DD\a b John -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
