Trying to change this by adding a tool type results in a window +that disappears before Vim comes up in its own window. +If you want Vim to start with another size, it can be done using +IconX. + +Follow these steps: + +1. Create a script file called e.g. Vim.WB, with a single line in which the + Vim executable is started: + Echo "Vim" > Vim.WB + Protect Vim.WB +s + +2. Rename the Vim icon to Vim.WB. + +3. By default, the Vim icon is a program icon. + Change the icon type from "program" to "project" using IconEdit from the + "Tools" directory. + +4. Change the icon settings using "information" from the WorkBench's "icon" + menu: + - The default program, of course, is "IconX". + - A stack size of 4096 should be sufficient. + - Create a WINDOW tooltype of the desired size. + The appropriate values depend on your WB font. + + Example: + On a standard non-interlaced WB screen with full overscan resolution + (724 x 283 ), the WINDOW tooltype "CON:30/10/664/273" results in a + horizontally centered window with 80 columns and 32 lines. + +Now Vim comes up with the new window size. |
