Bug Description
I just update to Kubuntu Karmic Alpha 6 from Kubuntu Hardy 8.04
I have used GVim as an external editor, and it has always worked well. The setting is in Configure-
gvim "+set ft=mail" -f %f
In Karmic, this command does not work. The settings string is interpreted as a filename, Vim complains about multiple open files, and the saved text does not make it back into KMail--it's in a file named
+set ft=mail"
in my Documents folder.
I then tried this:
gvim -c "+set ft=mail" -f %f
But it has the same problem.
Removing the options works fine:
gvim -f %f
But then Vim doesn't know writing an email.
Let me know if I should provide any additional information.
I set this to invalid, since now we don’t ship that any more.
