A somewhat minor nuisance, but as the pedantic for these things :P

When saving and opening a Session file the Session.vim file does:

badd +1 file1
badd +1 file2
badd +1 file3
…

This result in buffer numbering starting with 2 instead of 1.

:ls after opening Session file

I notice some Session files use badd +0 instead of badd +1, but this does not make any difference.

One way to circumvent this is to comment out first file in the session file and open Vim by:

vim file1 -S Session.vim

Is there a way to do this in the session-file instead?

I have tried to replace badd with edit for first file in Session.vim, but that does not work. (File does not get opened at all.)

  • @ChristianBrabandt: I compiled my own on previous Ubuntu as there was some irritating bugs they were slow to include (released) fixes for. Perhaps I have to do it here as well. Sep 9, 2019 at 16:52
  • @ChristianBrabandt: I do not have the time to do it now. Have wasted too much time on this rabbit-hole heh. I can do it later and report back if you want. Sep 9, 2019 at 16:59

I could achieve that by moving the edit line from the middle of the session file to the first line of the file. Ugly, I'd say...
