Plugin to allow full screen use in gvim on Windows

gVimWin32FullScreen Derek McLoughlin

  • What is this Put gvim into full screen in Microsoft Windows. This is a copy of Yasuhiro Matsumoto's VimTweak's EnableMaximize functionality modified to deal with window borders and making the window overlap the task bar.

    Note: this works on dual monitor configurations where the primary monitor is the one on the left hand side. When the gvim window spans both monitors, it is maximised to the monitor which contains most of the area of gvim's window.

  • Compiling Compile the DLL using any version of Visual C++ for Windows Use the makefile - nmake copy gvimfullscreen.dll to the directory that has gvim.exe

  • Usage Toggle :call libcallnr("gvimfullscreen.dll", "ToggleFullScreen", 0)

    For example: map <F11> <Esc>:call libcallnr("gvimfullscreen.dll", "ToggleFullScreen", 0)<CR>
