Operating Systems AIX Screen blanks when exiting vi and more Post 302769334 by jandersen on Tuesday 12th of February 2013 02:39:54 AM

You're welcome :-)

One of the very first things I do on a new installation is to simply remove everything in vimrc, set it to compatible (because I work on many different UNIXes) and turn off the $&£&^£%^£ screen blanking. This is my usual system wide vimrc:

Code:
set t_ti= t_te=
set compatible
syntax off

Sometimes it seems the screen blanking settings in the system wide vimrc don't work - but they seem to always work in ~/.vimrc.
