Doesn't MacVim support search history? #259

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run mvim.
2. Search something. (Ex. Press a key '/'. And enter 'asdf'.)
3. Quick mvim.
4. Run mvim again.
5. Press a key '/'. And then press a arrow-up key.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: Previous entered string. (Ex. 'asdf')
Got: Nothing happens.

What version of MacVim and OS X are you using (see "MacVim->About MacVim"
and  "Apple Menu->About This Mac" menu items, e.g. "Snapshot 40, 10.5.6
Intel")?
MacVim: 7.2 stable
OS X: 10.6.0

Please provide any additional information below.
On vim for Linux and Windows, search history works properly. But it doesn't
work in MacVim.
I'd like to know why it happens and how to fix it.

Did you go through the steps in the Wiki page ReportingBugs as asked?

It works fine for me.

Sorry.

This is not a bug. This is just my mistake. The owner of file '.viminfo' was 
root. So
macvim could not read .viminfo and could not find search history.

I'm glad you figured it out.
