Stop notification from :wn

[cjsmall]

When I use the  :wn"  command,  before moving to the next file I see a notification like:

"file1" 137L, 5359C [w]
"file2" 137L, 5359C
Press ENTER or type command to continue

Obviously this requires a <CR> to advance to the next file.  Is there a way to suppress this notice and simply move to the next file?  I can write a little macro:

:w^V^M:n^V^M

that does the trick, but this is a pain given that ":wn" already exists.  Suggestions?

I'm not sure, but I think you could prefix the command with :silent. Have you tried that?

Set cmdheight to something larger than 2.

I found this at
:h press-enter

Thanks to kwezi... who suggested prefixing

"silent" to the command.

:silent wn

does indeed work, but I don't want to have to type

that every time.  Stan Brown's comment to set

cmdheight to two or more also works, but it comes at

the price of permanently losing a full line of editor space.

This is not worth it for the benefit received.  So I guess

I'll just stick with a macro that issues either the

":w^V^M:n^V^M" or ":silent wn" sequence.

Thanks for the replies!

Another option setting to consider is 'shortmess' which
can shorten message text and affect how messages are
displayed.
