Vim scripts sometimes resize the whole shell (in my case the Taglist plugin).I don't want this behavior, which is possible with the shell command resize, too.Is there a way to suppress the whole resizing in shell windows? Any .*rc files to tune?I'm using gnome-terminal.
How can I disable terminal resizing
terminal;vim;gnome terminal;window
To fix your Taglist issue, add the following somewhere in your .vimrc:let Tlist_Inc_Winwidth=0From the VIM documentation:Window resizing with xterm only works if the allowWindowOps resource isenabled.  On some systems and versions of xterm it's disabled by defaultbecause someone thought it would be a security issue.  It's not clear if thisis actually the case.To overrule the default, put this line in your ~/.Xdefaults or~/.Xresources:    XTerm*allowWindowOps:       true     (note: this actually ENABLES it, you want to DISABLE, ie: false)And run xrdb -merge .Xresources to make it effective.  You can check thevalue with the context menu (right mouse button while CTRL key is pressed),there should be a tick at allow-window-ops.From my own experience with the Xresources, if you drop the 'XTerm' part, and just lead with the asterisk, it should also apply for any gnome terminals too.  The gnome terminal has it's particular prefix, but I don't know it, maybe someone could comment with that info, but the *allowWindowOps: false line should help.
