About: Replace buffer list when switching   Sponge Permalink

An Entity of Type : owl:Thing, within Data Space : dbkwik.org associated with source dataset(s)

1. Save the current session: :mks! ~/v/project1.vim 2. Quit vim :xa 3. Restart with a different session file: vim -S ~/v/project2.vim I was exiting and re-opening vim because if I just loaded the second project file, a list of both project buffers would appear in my buffer list. That was not what I wanted -- I wanted to replace the first buffer list completely wtih the second. There is a simple way to do this. At the top of a session file, add this: 1,999bdelete :so ~/v/project2.vim

  • 1. Save the current session: :mks! ~/v/project1.vim 2. Quit vim :xa 3. Restart with a different session file: vim -S ~/v/project2.vim I was exiting and re-opening vim because if I just loaded the second project file, a list of both project buffers would appear in my buffer list. That was not what I wanted -- I wanted to replace the first buffer list completely wtih the second. There is a simple way to do this. At the top of a session file, add this: 1,999bdelete That will delete the first 999 existing buffers, effectively allowing any new buffer definitions in the rest of the session file to replace what is currently there. Now you can switch directly to a new session without exiting. Just use: :so ~/v/project2.vim
