option to enable autogenerated server-name under Terminal Vim in Linux #320

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Enter a terminal in Linux, such as xterm
2. Start Vim with has('+clientserver')

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Under Windows, Terminal Vim starts with an autogenerated servername, but not 
under Linux.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

SUSE Linux 13.2, Vim 7.4.560

Please provide any additional information below.

Just would like to file this here after asking about it at vim_use, see

This is of minor importance as there are fine workarounds by aliasing vim for 
example (see 
http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Enable_servername_capability_in_vim/xterm).

However, as it is already enabled by default in Windows, it seems possible to 
make it optional under both OSes by a Vim option (&autoservername) and at the 
same time more consistent.
