Adding set shortmess=a causes undesired behavior

[jdahm]

Jumping to a file, e.g. "0" from the startup screen, when I have "set shortmess=a" in my .vimrc, causes a status line print:

:edit ~/dotfiles/.vimrc | call 41_check_user_options()

which then waits for me to hit enter. I've even verified that this still occurs when that is the only option set in my .vimrc.

What Vim version are you using exactly? I can't seem to reproduce it (Vim 7.4.131). It seems strange anyway, since 'shm' really just says something about the formatting of certain messages.. hmm.

Just to fully understand you: when you hit 0, :edit ~/dotfiles/.vimrc | call 41_check_user_options() gets displayed in the command-line, you get prompted for hitting <cr> and.. it still works afterwards or does nothing?
