I suppose "open Vim here" may be useful (I use other techniques), so it might be worth keeping the tip content (fixed). I agree with Fritzophrenic's suggestion in the tip that it should be merged to [[VimTip1003|1003 Windows file associations]]. [[User:JohnBeckett|JohnBeckett]] 07:50, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

The following tips may be relevant (these are the only tips that substantively mention cscope):

JohnBeckett 07:50, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

  • Vim and cscope and cygwin concerns enabling the cscope interface when compiling Vim for Cygwin. The proposed tip is exclusively from a user's viewpoint: "My Vim is compiled with cscope, now how shall I use it?"
  • Automatically create and update cscope database is related with the proposed tip; it should probably be mentioned under Cscope#Generating the database. However, it auto-generates a cscope database for all source files at any depth under the given directory, while the example shown in the proposed new tip creates a cscope database on-demand, tailoring it for the Vim source (and e.g. scanning src/if_perl.xs but not src/auto/if_perl.c)

Open Vim Here by clicking the context menu on a folder/directory on Windows[]

Merged to VimTip861 (which already had a similar tip). JohnBeckett 10:15, April 28, 2010 (UTC)

I suppose "open Vim here" may be useful (I use other techniques), so it might be worth keeping the tip content (fixed). I agree with Fritzophrenic's suggestion in the tip that it should be merged to 1003 Windows file associations. JohnBeckett 07:50, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Quick tips for using tab pages[]
