 |
|
all of a sudden im getting errors when running vi on any file. It throws me one of these guys:
| Code: |
E575: viminfo: Illegal starting char in line: alias usb:v*p*dl*dh*dc*dsc*dp*ic03

bc*sc*i* snd_emu10k1^@
E136: viminfo: Too many errors, skipping rest of file |
But will let me continue into the file by hitting enter. Keep in mind it is doing this on *any* file I try to open. Any ideas? Thanks!

Looks like your .viminfo file is somehow broken. Just remove it

This helped me as well. A recent emerge or something must have borked this -- it just started happening in the last week or so for me.
