While "Vim" is a name, "gvim" is a command. Vim can also be a command, thus then it's written as "vim". Depends on the context. I agree that "Gvim" and "gVim" are a bit strange. "GVim" is weird. Just using "gvim" seems best. -- Never under any circumstances take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. /// Bram Moolenaar -- [email protected] -- http://www.Moolenaar.net \\\ /// sponsor Vim, vote for features -- http://www.Vim.org/sponsor/ \\\ \\\ an exciting new programming language -- http://www.Zimbu.org /// \\\ help me help AIDS victims -- http://ICCF-Holland.org /// -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
