Using Vim warning style in gVim

Question

When for example an edited file is changed outside of Vim, Vim issues a warning and offers to reload the file. In command line Vim a green text on the bottom appears, but in gVim there is a GTK+ popup window instead. I like Vim behaviour more, and I'd like to have it in gVim as well, how can I change that?

Answer 1

There is an option to enable that behavior in the GUI version of Vim. If c is set in guioptions, console-like dialogs are used instead of graphical popup ones.

:set guioptions+=c
