vim autocmd windowing: placement

Is it possible to place windowed plugins by .vimrc:

I tried: 

autocmd vimenter * <C-W> <S-L>
autocmd vimenter * <C-W> <h>

But that seems nonsense. Vim doesn't not seem to be able to catch those shortcuts at vimenter.

Solution

  • Try the following:

    augroup vimrc
    autocmd!
    autocommand VimEnter * wincmd L|wincmd h
augroup END

    See :help :wincmd.
