XFCE 4.0.1 & vim
 
I installed XFCE 4.0.1 yesterday. Whenever I use vim in a terminal window, the terminal window is resized to the size of the vim window.

I've searched a bit, and I've found very little about 'preventing' this from happening.

Any ideas? Thanks.

have you tried adding a ~/.vimrc configuration file with
Code:
:set lines=xx
:set columns=yy

The /etc/vimrc file defines that. It's not the height of the xterm that changes size though, just the width. I tried modifying the columns=80 (in vimrc) to something like 300. Running vim still resulted in it being resized to the same position.

It's frustrating. I don't see any info on this at vim.org.
