Mac – How to make icons appear at top of MacVim again

macvim

I just upgraded to a new version of MacVim.

There used to be a row of icons at the top of every MacVim window with buttons for opening/saving files, cut/paste/delete, etc. Now that row of buttons is gone.

What is that row of buttons called and how do I get it to appear again?

in the editor--

:set guioptions+=T

you can embed this command in $USER/.gvimrc to make sure it happens every time you start up.
