While this works, note that it also loses those undo points and any jumps (`:help jumplist`) or marks you've set in the file. Often, if you're bulk-undoing, that's fine. But it's worth being aware that :e overwrites some state you might care about. Other possibilities: - you should be able to use a count with undo like 15u and it doesn't complain about you requesting more undo than exists, so you can do ridiculous counts like 99999u to undo lots of changes - you can use :earlier and :later to navigate based the undo tree based on time rather than undo counts, so you can do things like :earlier 15m :earlier 2h :earlier 1f (and in typing that up, I learned about the "f" suffix for file-write-counts...nice!) -tim -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
