This is the second of two errors posted tonight. As mentioned before, I did re-install vim/gvim 8.2 to make sure I'd installed it as administrator, as instructed, to make sure the batch files, etc., got installed.
I move files around between Linux and Windows constantly, and use the
unix file format for everything to avoid constantly having to do
:%s/^M//g
every time I move a file around. I had this silenced (by
some magic, it just finally shut up). I have set fileformat=unix
in my
.vimrc as the first non-comment line. But when opening the first
file, it will always give me the following errors (having to add blank lines to keep them from becoming one giant mess of a paragraph - Each error is followed by line 1
):

Each of the above is followed by: W15: Warning: Wrong line separator, ^M may be missing
If I exit out of vim//gvim, I get the same errors again. If I use :e foo.bar
to simply edit the file again, or another file, or split, etc., I
don't get the same errors. I looked at the various .vim files, saved
them in unix format, and thought that might stop these error messages.
No such luck.
:set fileformat=unix
doesn't do what you think it does. See the "update" section of my answer here Why isn't carriage return shown as ^M in my Vim^M
. That's because the default'ffs'
setting mentioned in my referenced answer is designed to keep that stuff hidden.:h W15
and set yourfileformats
option correctly
