| description |
(1) This script (plugin) defines command :RWALL which saves all modified files in all running vim instances. Command takes no arguments. Bang can be used (:RWALL!) in which case the command which is sent to all running vims is :wall!. Without bang, the command which is sent to all running vims is :wall.
Local vim is also saved.
"All running vim instances" include only servername-enabled vims. Vim instances with servername disabled will not be saved. :RWALL/:WALL uses vim clientserver feature to execute ":wall[!]" command in other running vims.
Synonym :WALL is set equivalent to :RWALL
(2) To do this from shell (to signal all running vims to save their modified file)
you can use either one of the following shell scripts:
(2a) Shell script RWALL.sh -- requires that RemoteSaveAll.vim be installed
#!/bin/sh
# Description: save modified files in all running vims
# this script requires that plugin RemoteSaveAll.vim be installed
# in the plugin directory
vim -c 'RWALL' -c 'q!'
(2b) Shell script savevims.sh -- does not require RemoteSaveAll.vim plugin
#!/bin/sh
# Description: save modified files in all running vims
for srv in `vim --serverlist`; do
vim --servername "$srv" --remote_send '<C-\><C-N>:wall<CR>'
done
(3) To check that your running vims are 'servername-enabled' and can be remotely saved, do:
vim --serverlist
at shell prompt, or
:echo serverlist()
in vim. If nothing is printed, then no running vims are detected.
