Hi, while I was on Fedora, whenever I opened a file using vim, the next time I open it, it used to open at the same line where I closed it.
What is the setting to enable this feature ? Its a big pain in the a$$ to scroll through the file every time I want to find the line.

Add this to your .vimrc
" When editing a file, always jump to the last known cursor position. " Don't do it when the position is invalid or when inside an event handler " (happens when dropping a file on gvim). " Also don't do it when the mark is in the first line, that is the default " position when opening a file. autocmd BufReadPost * \ if line("'\"")> 1&& line("'\"")<= line("$") | \ exe "normal! g`\"" | \ endif
