Re: how to suppress "E173: 1 more file to edit"

[Peter Peter]

I found a solution.  The only con is that it loads all the files up front, so it may take a while if you have large files.

Taken from https://github.com/evaryont/dotfiles/blob/master/vimrc which is maintained by Colin Shea <co...@evaryont.me>.
-- .vimrc
" Avoid E173
if argc() > 1
  silent blast " load last buffer
  silent bfirst " switch back to the first
endif
---

Better late than never?

This means you will never get E173, not even when you would want to be
reminded that you forgot some of your edits.

Maybe the following? (untested)

command -bang -bar Qfast call Qfast(<q-bang>)
func Qfast(bang)
if a:bang == "" " optional: if no ! write all modified named files
set awa "
endif "
try
exe 'qa' . a:bang
catch /^Vim\%((\a\+)\)\=:E173/
exe 'qa' . a:bang
endtry
endfunc


Best regards,
Tony.
