Left scroll bar

[GoogleCodeExporter]

On Leopard 10.5.5 I have the latest and greatest MacVim. I do not manage to 
turn off the left 
scrollbar. I use toggle from the menu but this does not cure the problem. Also 
gui_options-=l does 
not help. I guess maybe a bug?

First of all: what do you mean that you can't turn _off_ the left scrollbar?  
It should be off by default.  It makes 
it sound like your .vimrc/.gvimrc or plugins are interfering.

Toggling the scrollbar from the "Edit->Global Settings" menu works for me...

The option is called 'guioptions' without the underscore so maybe you typed it 
wrong (still doesn't explain 
why the menu wouldn't work though).  Try this:

:set go-=l

If that doesn't work, type

:set go?

and tell me what Vim responds with.

Before doing that you should always move your rc-files as well as the .vim 
folder out of the way to make sure 
they're not causing the problems.

I am very sorry! It seemed that the guioption L was on. I turned it off and now 
it's fine. Sorry again.

No worries.  I'm glad you sorted it out.
