In my .vimrc, I want to check if I'm in MacVim vs. regular vim so I can optionally set some MacVim-specific settings, which should not be applied to regular vim.
How do I do this?

I just found one way to do it:
if has("gui_macvim")
" set macvim specific stuff
endif

has("gui_running")will get you support for both macvim and gvim so will make your .vimrc more portable. Mar 2, 2016 at 11:36 -
2I noticed this condition is true either if I run macvim in terminal or GUI app. I is a way to check wether macvim is running in terminal? May 16, 2016 at 7:57

1For MacVim it looks like
has("gui_macvim")returns true if it is running as a GUI or on the commandline. Howeverhas("gui_running")only seems to return true if MacVim is running as a GUI.– VonDec 27, 2019 at 2:19
