I have tried all of the suggestions to restore a statusline which displays the current line number and column as VI did by DEFAULT. e.g, fc12, fc17, fc21,
But with FedoraCore 34 someone apparently didnt think it was important anymore.
No, I don’t want to be adding plugins for something so stupidly simple that is supposed to be there by default.
:set laststatus=2 creates an abomination with no line numbers
:set statusline… option not supported: statusline
:set ruler doesn’t do diddly-squat
:set compatible … doesn’t do diddly-squat, either
I’ve blown through dozens of iterations of vimrc to no effect whatsoever, then said the h with it and removed all levels.
this is just supposed to be the line number a comma and the column number at the right hand side of the ruler/command line
Please don’t tell me that once again someone decided to fix what was not broken?
vi –version 8.2 says that they did not compile in -statusline / but laststatus=2 shows a statusline with filename…..
WHAT!!?!!
how do I get this back?
