new from nofile ?

[M Kelly]

Hi again,

If my buftype=nofile then I cannot seem to create a new window with new or vnew, ok.

I can change my buftype and then call new.

Is there a special way to create a new regular buffer in a split from a nofile buffer ?

Or a way to restore the old buftype for the orig buffer right after changing it and issuing the new ?

thx, take care,

Hi,

ok, I think I can use:

call setbufvar(prev_bufid, "&buftype", "nofile")

to set it back.

thx,
