No GUI on startup #203

Hi, I've been experiencing trouble with starting neovim.app. The GUI used to load just fine but at some point this changed: when starting neovim.app (via Finder, launcher or command line) does not show a window. I think the reason might have been that the font I had selected was deleted and on the next startup gnvim didn't know what to load. Pressing CMD-+ makes an empty titlebar appear in the bottom-left corner as shown on one of the screenshots. This titlebar can be moved and resized but there is nothing more. I can “open” files, such that the titlebar shows the filename, and I can use “ZZ” and other commands, but I don't see anything.

I tried deleting and reinstalling, and everything compiles fine, but the window never loads.

That... is a new one on me. If it is font-related, mabe try deleting Neovim.app's user settings:

defaults delete uk.foon.neovim

No effect, unfortunately, the same thing happens.

EDIT: I did a restart in the meantime (independently of this issue) and just tried it again — it works! I guess it was deleting the user settings. Thanks a lot!
