There's the built-in `packadd editexisting` to take care of that; On Unix https://github.com/gioele/vim-autoswap could be more convenient.

Thanks, but these only seem to work with graphical versions of Vim. Also, if you suspend your Vim session, these seem to stop working.

Try these work-arounds:

- either adding to your `:help vimrc`

if has('clientserver') && empty(v:servername) try call remote_startserver('VIM-' . getpid()) catch '^Vim\%((\a\+)\)\=:E\%(941\|240\)' endtry endif

- or, at least on Unix, calling vim by, say `$HOME/bin/vim` with `$HOME/bin` in `$PATH` and launching

/usr/bin/vim --servername vim -u ~/.vim/vimrc "$@"
