In .vimrc, how can I detect whether vim was invoked as 'view'? Looking for &readonly also matched when doing :help from within 'vim', which I don't want, eg:

if &readonly
     " Things that should only happen when called as 'view'
endif

You (Paul) may want to test against a regaxp, e.g.

        if v:progname =~ 'view'

in order to catch gview, rview, or "view with any additional trailing
characters" (which Vim will treat as invoking it as view).

Best regards,
Tony.
