Description
If a symlink to the mvim script has the wrong permissions (sadly easy to do on OS X), it fails with some rather confusing error messages. The change below fixes this:
while [ -L "$self_path" ]; do
next_path= readlink $self_path{ echo "error $? reading link $self_path (are permissions on the link correct?)" 2>&1; exit 2; } cd "
dirname $next_path" self_path=basename $next_pathdone
