How do I get the standard Vim FTP command to work?
When I do vim ftp://[user@]machine/path
in Vim I get this error: E683: File name missing or invalid pattern
. Why id Vim treating this command as a search pattern?
I'm getting the same error in MacVim and开发者_如何学运维 Terminal Vim.
Usually you want to start Vim and then edit a file over ftp. Calling vim
with a url may not work. You're supposed give a file path as argument to vim
and that's what's causing the error.
Also, the error says:
File name missing or invalid pattern
Vim is not treating it as a search pattern. Notice the "or". It happens that no file name is given.
Try starting vim and then:
:e ftp://[user@]machine/path
