Subject: Re: function to run vim

OK, as i was writing this response, I figured it out (or the solution
- I'm just guessing at the problem). But, I think some library got
updated and I haven't rebooted / zsh sessions are old. what's weird is
that in an old session, I show the same ZSH_PATCHLEVEL as in a new
one. I'll have to see if I can figure out what libraries running
processes are linked against...

Thanks for the reply

Didn't test - I assume that would've failed

Yeah, it's an alias so that I can do \vim to actually run plain vim.
It does the same thing if I do 'vimfunc file'

That's cool, I'll use that....

Good catch - I just put that in for completeness and never tested it (obviously)
