Hello :
Using vim 7.4, non-gui mode on Mac OS X, installed by Macports.
I think this was a recent upgrade (didn't monitor macport full
upgrade closely).

Now I'm getting messages like :
Error detected while processing function <SNR>60_ShowMarks:

A quick google shows similar issues but seemed linked to older, out
of sync versions of showmarks.vim. I'm not finding a version newer
than 2.2, which is what I have.

Any ideas?
thanks

The actual error message could help ;)

Also you might want to ask the author of the plugin and check, you are
using the latest version of the plugin.

Best,
Christian

The full error message is as follows:

Error detected while processing function <SNR>60_ShowMarks:
line 39:

However, in the short time between my OP and your kind reply, I
started seeing more error messages. Being a bit short of time, I
roll backed to the previous version, which is stable and does all
that I need it to.

If I don't see a second upgrade in a few weeks, I'll revisit the
issue by going back to the latest version and trouble-shoot it.

Thanks for the reply
cheers

I notified the author back in Sept 2014 regarding a problem documented
in the following link. It's probably the same thing you're
experiencing:

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/vim_dev/7NLT2Z0_V5s

The author replied that he would look into it; but he's probably been
swamped with other duties and hasn't been able to update showmarks yet.

I had the same problem. Eventually, I used this instead:

If this is the same problem as in the mentioned thread, simply put an

if ln > 0
...
endif

around the sign place call.

Most excellent. I did that around line #402 in my version (2.2), and
the problem went away :-)

Thanks very much, Christian!
