[SOLVED] vim: printdevice is set, but where from?
Hi,
when I do a ':set printdevice' in my vim, a printer is selected that does not exist any more on the system.
It is also no set in my .vimrc or anywhere else in my home directory or even in /etc.
lpstat -a does not even show this printer anymore...
Do any of you guys have an idea where this could be set or how I could reset it?
I know I can just set it in my .vimrc but I'd like to understand where this comes from.
I'm using XFCE here.
Thanks a lot,
Sven

:verbose set printdevice?This will tell you in which file was it last set. For further reference see troubleshooting guide on vim.wikia.com.

nice one, thanks
it was actually in ~/.vim/plugin/local_mine.vim and I cannot properly explain why my ag (or grep) did not find that...

Re: [SOLVED] vim: printdevice is set, but where from?
Maybe you somehow set up those utilities not to look in dirs starting with a dot.
Would you kindly mark the thread as solved if your issue is solved?
