#7 Re: Making shell scripts executable via editor hooks Posted by Anonymous (165.200.xx.xx) on Thu 6 Dec 2007 at 23:03 I am same poster as parent... ended up doing a little research and chaged the vim code. Put this in my .vimrc and not getting errors anymore: " automatically give executable permissions if file begins with #! and contains " '/bin/' in the path function ModeChange() if getline(1) =~ "^#!" if getline(1) =~ "/bin/" silent !chmod a+x endif endif endfunction au BufWritePost * call ModeChange() not sure why the originally posted code didn't work... Thanks so much for the idea of doing this within .vimrc, and for giving the impetus to do some vimrc research ;)
