I can't test on Linux right now. On Windows, Vim 9.0.1640 opens ini files without error. Could you try opening the file with "--clean" argument? I also see that between my version (9.0.1640) and yours (9.0.1713), dosini.vim changed [1]. Maybe try commenting out line 28? Copying Hong Xu, the developer of dosini syntax file. -- Enan [1]: https://github.com/xuhdev/syntax-dosini.vim/commit/e04e6e82b90bdbbe7aef11e767b8ad1e6f5010bf > Following that "\" on line 28 with any one of "/", "?" or "&" resulted in > an even longer error message. > > In my .zshenv: > export EDITOR=vim > export FCEDIT=vim > export SLANG_EDITOR=vim > > Also: > --> vim --version > VIM - Vi IMproved 9.0 (2022 Jun 28, compiled Aug 15 2023 20:47:29) Included > patches: 1-1713 Modified by [email protected] Compiled by > [email protected] Huge version without GUI.
