For some reason, :e! does not keep undo history in those cases even though it does keep it in the normal case (say sub-100KB). The swapfile solution appears to me now to work under any circumstances, which is very impressive. A bit of a weird question: How can I cleanly get rid of or move past the error message "E297: Write error in swap file"? I am running GVim when this happens and do not want to be forced to close it down and reopen a new GVim because I don't want to lose all my open buffers and ideally I'd like to keep all my undo history in each file too, but even a solution where I lose undo history would be an improvement. I have one limited workaround right now noted at bottom and am looking for something a little better... Why would I want to ignore such an error? A good question: I am running GVim in a virtual machine and I have it open on a file on the "host" file system rather than the VM's own file system and I "suspend" the VM. After coming back from the suspend, every

(1) Another program may be editing the same file. If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two different instances of the same file when making changes. Quit, or continue with caution. (2) An edit session for this file crashed. If this is the case, use ":recover" or "vim -r .vimrc" to recover the changes (see ":help recovery"). If you did this already, delete the swap file ".vimrc.swp" to avoid this message.

The above error suggests that it isn't the swap space but a problem with the editor application. Vim (vi) for instance uses a swap file (with a file extension of ".swp" and the same name as the file being edited). If you are trying to edit a large file in on a file system with limited space you can get this error when there isn't enough room for the swap file to be written. You can also get this error if a file has been edited by a different user and the swap file still exists and you don't have the priv'sto overwrite the swap file. 0 LVL 1 Overall: Level 1 Message Author Comment by:icculus2000-11-2
