|
46 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES *incompatible-7*
|
|
|
47
|
|
|
48 These changes are incompatible with previous releases. Check this list if you
|
|
141
|
49 run into a problem when upgrading from Vim 6.x to 7.0.
|
|
|
50
|
|
|
51 A ":write file" command no longer resets the 'modified' flag of the buffer,
|
|
|
52 unless the '+' flag is in 'cpoptions' |cpo-+|. This was illogical, since the
|
|
|
53 buffer is still modified compared to the original file. And when undoing
|
|
|
54 all changes the file would actually be marked modified. It does mean that
|
|
|
55 ":quit" fails now.
|
|
7
|
56
|
|
10
|
57 ":helpgrep" now uses a help window to display a match.
|
|
|
58
|
|
39
|
59 In an argument list double quotes could be used to include spaces in a file
|
|
|
60 name. This caused a difference between ":edit" and ":next" for escaping
|
|
|
61 double quotes and it is incompatible with some versions of Vi.
|
|
|
62 Command Vim 6.x file name Vim 7.x file name ~
|
|
|
63 :edit foo\"888 'foo"888' 'foo"888'
|
|
|
64 :next foo\"888 'foo888' 'foo"888'
|
|
|
65 :next a\"b c\"d 'ab cd' 'a"b' and 'c"d'
|
|
|
66
|
|
100
|
67 In a |literal-string| a single quote can be doubled to get one.
|
|
|
68 ":echo 'a''b'" would result in "a b", but now that two quotes stand for one it
|
|
|
69 results in "a'b".
|
|
|
70
|
|
460
|
71 When overwriting a file with ":w! fname" there was no warning for when "fname"
|
|
|
72 was being edited by another Vim. Vim now gives an error message |E768|.
|
|
|
73
|
|
575
|
74 The support for Mac OS 9 has been removed.
|
|
|
75
|
|
10
|
76
|
|
|
77 Minor incompatibilities:
|
|
|
78
|
|
|
79 For filetype detection: For many types, instead of ~/.dir/filename use
|
|
|
80 */.dir/filename, so that it also works for other user's files.
|
|
|
81
|
|
|
82 ":0verbose" now sets 'verbose' to zero instead of one.
|
|
|
83
|
|
|
84 Removed the old and incomplete "VimBuddy" code.
|
|
|
85
|
|
|
86 Buffers without a name report "No Name" instead of "No File". It was
|
|
|
87 confusing for buffers with a name and 'buftype' set to "nofile".
|
|
7
|
88
|
|
29
|
89 When ":file xxx" is used in a buffer without a name, the alternate file name
|
|
|
90 isn't set. This avoids creating buffers without a name that are not useful.
|
|
|
91
|
|
|
92 The "2html.vim" script now converts closed folds to HTML. This means the HTML
|
|
279
|
93 looks like its displayed, with the same folds open and closed. Use "zR", or
|
|
|
94 "let html_ignore_folding=1", if no folds should appear in the HTML. (partly by
|
|
|
95 Carl Osterwisch)
|
|
32
|
96 Diff mode now is also converted as it is displayed.
|
|
29
|
97
|
|
36
|
98 Win32: The effect of the <F10> key depended on 'winaltkeys'. Now it depends
|
|
|
99 on whether <F10> has been mapped or not. This allows mapping <F10> without
|
|
|
100 changing 'winaltkeys'.
|
|
|
101
|
|
100
|
102 When 'octal' is in 'nrformats' and using CTRL-A on "08" it became "018", which
|
|
|
103 is illogical. Now it becomes "9". The leading zero(s) is(are) removed to
|
|
|
104 avoid the number becoming octal after incrementing "009" to "010".
|
|
39
|
105
|
|
|
106 When 'encoding' is set to a Unicode encoding, the value for 'fileencodings'
|
|
|
107 now includes "default" before "latin1". This means that for files with 8-bit
|
|
|
108 encodings the default is to use the encoding specified by the environment, if
|
|
|
109 possible. Previously latin1 would always be used, which is wrong in a
|
|
|
110 non-latin1 environment, such as Russian.
|
|
|
111
|
|
149
|
112 Previously Vim would exit when there are two windows, both of them displaying
|
|
|
113 a help file, and using ":quit". Now only the window is closed.
|
|
|
114
|
|
164
|
115 "-w {scriptout}" only works when {scriptout} doesn't start with a digit.
|
|
|
116 Otherwise it's used to set the 'window' option.
|
|
|
117
|
|
181
|
118 Previously <Home> and <xHome> could be mapped separately. This had the
|
|
|
119 disadvantage that all mappings (with modifiers) had to be duplicated, since
|
|
|
120 you can't be sure what the keyboard generates. Now all <xHome> are internally
|
|
|
121 translated to <Home>, both for the keys and for mappings. Also for <xEnd>,
|
|
|
122 <xF1>, etc.
|
|
|
123
|
|
237
|
124 ":put" now leaves the cursor on the last inserted line.
|
|
|
125
|
|
379
|
126 When a .gvimrc file exists then 'compatible' is off, just like when a ".vimrc"
|
|
|
127 file exists.
|
|
|
128
|
|
494
|
129 When making a string upper-case with "vlllU" or similar then the German sharp
|
|
|
130 s is replaced with "SS". This does not happen with "~" to avoid backwards
|
|
|
131 compatibility problems and because "SS" can't be changed back to a sharp s.
|
|
|
132
|
|
505
|
133 "gd" previously found the very first occurrence of a variable in a function,
|
|
|
134 that could be the function argument without type. Now it finds the position
|
|
|
135 where the type is given.
|
|
|
136
|
|
697
|
137 The line continuation in functions was not taken into account, line numbers in
|
|
|
138 errors were logical lines, not lines in the sourced file. That made it
|
|
|
139 difficult to locate errors. Now the line number in the sourced file is
|
|
|
140 reported, relative to the function start. This also means that line numbers
|
|
|
141 for ":breakadd func" are different.
|

144 NEW FEATURES *new-7*
|
|
|
145
|
|
116
|
146 Vim script enhancements *new-vim-script*
|
|
|
147 -----------------------
|
|
7
|
148
|
|
|
149 In Vim scripts the following types have been added:
|
|
|
150
|
|
97
|
151 List ordered list of items |List|
|
|
|
152 Dictionary associative array of items |Dictionary|
|
|
|
153 Funcref reference to a function |Funcref|
|
|
7
|
154
|
|
|
155 Many functions and commands have been added to support the new types.
|
|
|
156
|
|
97
|
157 The |string()| function can be used to get a string representation of a
|
|
|
158 variable. Works for Numbers, Strings and composites of them. Then |eval()|
|
|
|
159 can be used to turn the string back into the variable value.
|
|
|
160
|
|
116
|
161 The |:let| command can now use ":let var += expr" like using ":let var = var +
|
|
|
162 expr". "-=" and ".=" works in a similar way.
|
|
|
163
|
|
175
|
164 With the |:profile| command you can find out where your function or script
|
|
|
165 wastes its time.
|
|
|
166
|
|
634
|
167 In the Python interface vim.eval() also handles Dictionaries and Lists.

|
171 Spell checking *new-spell*
|
|
|
172 --------------
|
|
|
173
|
|
|
174 Spell checking has been integrated in Vim. There were a few implementations
|
|
|
175 with scripts, but they were slow and/or required an external program.
|
|
|
176
|
|
|
177 The 'spell' option is used to switch spell checking on or off.
|
|
|
178 The 'spelllang' option is used to specify the languages that are accepted.
|
|
323
|
179 The 'spellfile' option specifies where new words are added.
|
|
379
|
180 The 'spellsuggest' option specifies the methods used for making suggestions
|
|
323
|
181
|
|
|
182 The |[s| and |]s| commands can be used to move to the next or previous error.
|
|
|
183 The |zg| and |zw| commands can be used to add good and wrong words.
|
|
594
|
184 The |z=| command can be used to correct the word.
|
|
379
|
185 The |:mkspell| command is used to generate a Vim spell file from word lists.
|
|
222
|
186
|
|
|
187 The "undercurl" highlighting attribute was added to nicely point out spelling
|
|
|
188 mistakes in the GUI (based on patch from Marcin Dalecki).
|
|
|
189 The "guisp" color can be used to give it a color different from foreground and
|
|
|
190 background.
|
|
|
191 The number of possible different highlight attributes was raised from about
|
|
|
192 220 to over 30000. This allows for the attributes of spelling to be combined
|
|
301
|
193 with syntax highlighting attributes. This is also used for syntax
|
|
|
194 highlighting.
|
|
222
|

|
|
196 Much more info here: |spell|.
|
|
|
197
|
|
|
198
|
|
523
|
199 Omni completion *new-omni-completion*
|
|
|
200 -----------------
|
|
|
201
|
|
|
202 This could also be called "intellisense", but that is a trademark. It is a
|
|
|
203 smart kind of completion. The text in front of the cursor is inspected to
|
|
659
|
204 figure out what could be following. This may suggest struct and class
|
|
|
205 members, system functions, etc.
|
|
523
|
206
|
|
|
207 Use CTRL-X CTRL-O in Insert mode to start the completion. |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-O|
|
|
|
208
|
|
|
209 The 'omnifunc' option is set by filetype plugins to define the function that
|
|
|
210 figures out the completion.
|
|
|
211
|
|
541
|
212 Currently supported languages:
|
|
659
|
213 C |ft-c-omni|
|
|
|
214 (X)HTML with CSS |ft-html-omni|
|
|
|
215 JavaScript |ft-javascript-omni|
|
|
|
216 any language wih syntax highligting |ft-syntax-omni|
|
|
|
217 XML |ft-xml-omni|
|
|
541
|
218
|
|
|
219 When the 'completeopt' option contains "menu" then matches for Insert mode
|
|
|
220 completion are displayed in a popup menu.
|
|
523
|
221
|
|
|
222
|
|
14
|
223 MzScheme interface *new-MzScheme*
|
|
|
224 ------------------
|
|
|
225
|
|
|
226 The MzScheme interpreter is supported. |MzScheme|
|
|
|
227 The |:mzscheme| command can be used to execute MzScheme commands.
|
|
|
228 The |:mzfile| command can be used to execute an MzScheme script file.
|
|
|
229
|
|
97
|
230
|
|
15
|
231 Printing multi-byte text *new-print-multi-byte*
|
|
|
232 ------------------
|
|
|
233
|
|
|
234 The |:hardcopy| command now supports printing multi-byte characters.
|
|
|
235 The 'printmbcharset' and 'printmbfont' options are used for this.
|
|
|
236 Also see |postscript-cjk-printing|. (Mike Williams)
|
|
|
237
|
|
14
|
238
|
|
714
|
239 Extended Unicode support *new-more-unicode*
|
|
|
240 ------------------------
|
|
|
241
|
|
|
242 Previously only two combining characters were displayed. The limit is now
|
|
|
243 raised to 6. This can be set with the 'maxcombine' option. The default is
|
|
|
244 still 2.
|
|
|
245
|
|
|
246 |ga| now shows all combining characters, not just the first two.
|
|
|
247
|
|
|
248 Previously only 16 bit Unicode characters were supported for displaying. Now
|
|
|
249 the full 32 bit character set can be used. Unless manually disabled at
|
|
|
250 compile time.
|
|
|
251
|
|
|
252 For pattern matching it is now possible to search for individual composing
|
|
|
253 characters. |patterns-composing|
|
|
|
254
|
|
|
255
|
|
694
|
256 Highlighting matching parens *new-matchparen*
|
|
|
257 ----------------------------
|
|
|
258
|
|
|
259 When moving the cursor through the text and it is on a paren, then the
|
|
|
260 matching paren can be highlighted. This uses the new |CursorMoved|
|
|
|
261 autocommand event.
|
|
|
262
|
|
700
|
263 See |matchparen| for more information.
|
|
|
264
|
|
|
265 The plugin uses the |:match| command. It now supports three match patterns.
|
|
|
266 The plugin uses the third one. The first one is for the user and the second
|
|
|
267 one can be used by another plugin.
|
|
694
|
268
|
|
|
269
|
|
36
|
270 Translated manual pages *new-manpage-trans*
|
|
|
271 -----------------------
|
|
|
272
|
|
|
273 The manual page of Vim and associated programs is now also available in
|
|
200
|
274 several other languages.
|
|
|
275
|
|
237
|
276 French - translated by David Blanchet
|
|
200
|
277 Italian - translated by Antonio Colombo
|
|
|
278 Russian - translated by Vassily Ragosin
|
|
36
|
279
|
|
237
|
280 The Unix Makefile installs the Italian manual pages in .../man/it/man1/,
|
|
|
281 .../man/it.ISO8859-1/man1/ and .../man/it.UTF-8/man1/. There appears to be no
|
|
|
282 standard for what encoding goes in the "it" directory, the 8-bit encoded file
|
|
|
283 is used there as a best guess.
|
|
|
284 Other languages are installed in similar places.
|
|
284
|
285 The translated pages are not automatically installed when Vim was configured
|
|
|
286 with "--disable-nls", but "make install-languages install-tool-languages" will
|
|
|
287 do it anyway.
|
|
40
|
288
|
|
36
|
289
|
|
43
|
290 Internal grep *new-vimgrep*
|
|
|
291 -------------
|
|
|
292
|
|
|
293 The ":vimgrep" command can be used to search for a pattern in a list of files.
|
|
|
294 This is like the ":grep" command, but no external program is used. Besides
|
|
|
295 better portability, handling of different file encodings and using multi-line
|
|
|
296 patterns, this also allows grepping in compressed and remote files.
|
|
|
297 |:vimgrep|.
|
|
|
298
|
|
170
|
299 If you want to use the search results in a script you can use the
|
|
231
|
300 |getqflist()| function.
|
|
170
|
301
|
|
445
|
302 To search in files in various directories the "**" pattern can be used. It
|
|
|
303 expands into an arbitrary depth of directories. "**" can be used in all
|
|
|
304 places where file names are expanded, thus also with |:next| and |:args|.
|
|
|
305
|
|
43
|
306
|
|
446
|
307 Scroll back in messages *new-scroll-back*
|
|
|
308 -----------------------
|
|
|
309
|
|
|
310 When displaying messages, at the |more-prompt| and the |hit-enter-prompt|, The
|
|
|
311 'k', 'u' and 'b' keys can be used to scroll back to previous messages. This
|
|
|
312 is especially useful for commands such as ":syntax", ":autocommand" and
|
|
|
313 ":highlight". This is implemented in a generic way thus it works for all
|
|
|
314 commands and highlighting is kept. Only works when the 'more' option is set.
|
|
|
315 Previously it only partly worked for ":clist".
|
|
|
316
|
|
448
|
317 The |g<| command can be used to see the last page of messages after you have
|
|
|
318 hit <Enter> at the |hit-enter-prompt|. Then you can scroll further back.
|

321 POSIX compatibility *new-posix*
|
|
|
322 -------------------
|
|
|
323
|
|
|
324 The POSIX test suite was used to verify POSIX compatibility. A number of
|
|
|
325 problems have been fixed to make Vim more POSIX compatible. Some of them
|
|
|
326 conflict with traditional Vi or expected behavior. The $VIM_POSIX environment
|
|
|
327 variable can be set to get POSIX compatibility. See |posix|.
|
|
|
328
|
|
|
329 Items that were fixed for both Vi and POSIX compatibilty:
|
|
|
330 - repeating "R" with a count only overwrites text once; added the 'X' flag to
|
|
|
331 'cpoptions' |cpo-X|
|
|
|
332 - a vertical movement command that moves to a non-existing line fails; added
|
|
|
333 the '-' flag to 'cpoptions' |cpo--|
|
|
|
334 - when preserving a file and doing ":q!" the file can be recovered; added the
|
|
|
335 '&' flag to 'cpoptions' |cpo-&|
|
|
|
336 - The 'window' option is partly implemented. It specifies how much CTRL-F and
|
|
|
337 CTRL-B scroll when there is one window. The "-w {number}" argument is now
|
|
|
338 accepted. "-w {scriptout}" only works when {scriptout} doesn't start with a
|
|
|
339 digit.
|
|
|
340 - Allow "-c{command}" argument, no space between "-c" and {command}.
|
|
|
341 - When writing a file with ":w!" don't reset 'readonly' when 'Z' is present in
|
|
|
342 'cpoptions'.
|
|
169
|
343 - Allow 'l' and '#' flags for ":list", ":print" and ":number".
|
|
|
344 - Added the '.' flag to 'cpoptions': ":cd" fails when the buffer is modified.
|
|
|
345 - In Ex mode with an empty buffer ":read file" doesn't keep an empty line
|
|
|
346 above or below the new lines.
|
|
|
347 - Remove a backslash before a NL for the ":global" command.
|
|
|
348 - When ":append", ":insert" or ":change" is used with ":global", get the
|
|
|
349 inserted lines from the command. Can use backslash-NL to separate lines.
|
|
|
350 - Can use ":global /pat/ visual" to execute Normal mode commands at each
|
|
|
351 matched line. Use "Q" to continue and go to the next line.
|
|
|
352 - The |:open| command has been partially implemented. It stops Ex mode, but
|
|
|
353 redraws the whole screen, not just one line as open mode is supposed to do.
|
|
|
354 - Support using a pipe to read the output from and write input to an external
|
|
|
355 command. Added the 'shelltemp' option and has("filterpipe").
|
|
|
356 - In ex silent mode the ":set" command output is displayed.
|
|
|
357 - The ":@@" and ":**" give an error message when no register was used before.
|
|
|
358 - The search pattern "[]-`]" matches ']', '^', '_' and '`'.
|
|
|
359 - Autoindent for ":insert" is using the line below the insert.
|
|
|
360 - Autoindent for ":change" is using the first changed line.
|
|
|
361 - Editing Ex command lines is not done in cooked mode, because CTRL-D and
|
|
|
362 CTRL-T cannot be handled then.
|
|
308
|
363 - In Ex mode, "1,3" prints three lines. "%" prints all lines.
|
|
|
364 - In Ex mode "undo" would undo all changes since Ex mode was started.
|
|
169
|
365 - Implemented the 'prompt' option.
|
|

368 Debugger support *new-debug-support*
|
|
|
369 ----------------
|
|
|
370
|
|
|
371 The 'balloonexpr' option has been added. This is a generic way to implement
|
|
|
372 balloon functionality. You can use it to show info for the word under the
|
|
|
373 mouse pointer.
|
|
|
374
|
|
|
375
|
|
462
|
376 Remote file explorer *new-netrw-explore*
|
|
|
377 --------------------
|
|
|
378
|
|
|
379 The netrw plugin now also supports viewing a directory, when "scp://" is used.
|
|
|
380 Deleting and renaming files is possible.
|
|
|
381
|
|
|
382 To avoid duplicating a lot of code, the previous file explorer plugin has been
|
|
|
383 integrated in the netrw plugin. This means browsing local and remote files
|
|
|
384 works the same way.
|
|
|
385
|
|
|
386 ":browse edit" and ":browse split" use the netrw plugin when it's available
|
|
|
387 and a GUI dialog is not possible.
|
|
|
388
|
|
|
389 The netrw plugin is maintained by Charles Campbell.

392 Define an operator *new-define-operator*
|
|
|
393 ------------------
|
|
|
394
|
|
|
395 Previously it was not possible to define your own operator; a command that is
|
|
|
396 followed by a {motion}. Vim 7 introduces the 'operatorfunc' option and the
|
|
|
397 |g@| operator. This makes it possible to define a mapping that works like an
|
|
|
398 operator. The actual work is then done by a function, which is invoked
|
|
|
399 through the |g@| operator.
|
|
|
400
|
|
|
401 See |:map-operator| for the explanation and an example.
|
|
|

|
404 Mapping to an expression *new-map-expression*
|
|
|
405 ------------------------
|
|
|
406
|
|
|
407 The {rhs} argument of a mapping can be an expression. That means the
|
|
|
408 resulting characters can depend on the context. Example: >
|
|
|
409 :inoremap <expr> . InsertDot()
|
|
|
410 Here the dot will be mapped to whatever InsertDot() returns.
|
|
|
411
|
|
|
412 Also works for abbreviations. See |:map-<expr>| for the details.

|
415 Location list *new-location-list*
|
|
|
416 -------------
|
|
|
417
|
|
|
418 The support for a per-window quickfix list (location list) is added. The
|
|
|
419 location list can be displayed in a location window (similar to the quickfix
|
|
|
420 window). You can open more than one location list window. A set of commands
|
|
|
421 similar to the quickfix commands are added to browse the location list.

747 The Netbeans interface was updated for Sun Studio 10. The protocol number
|
|
|
748 goes from 2.2 to 2.3. (Gordon Prieur)
|
|
|
749
|
|
720
|
750 Mac: When starting up Vim will load the $VIMRUNTIME/macmap.vim script to
|
|
|
751 define default command-key mappings.
|
|
|
752
|
|
10
|
753 Mac: Add the selection type to the clipboard, so that Block, line and
|
|
|
754 character selections can be used between two Vims. (Eckehard Berns)
|
|
|
755 Also fixes the problem that setting 'clipboard' to "unnamed" breaks using
|
|
|
756 "yyp".

761
|
|
594
|
762 Mac: Support the xterm mouse in the non-GUI version.
|
|
|
763
|
|
|
764 Mac: better integration with Xcode. Post a fake mouse-up event after the odoc
|
|
|
765 event and the drag receive handler to work around a stall after Vim loads a
|
|
|
766 file. Fixed an off-by-one line number error. (Da Woon Jung)
|
|
|
767
|
|
|
768 Added the t_SI and t_EI escape sequences for starting and ending Insert mode.
|
|

|
769 GUI font selector for Motif. (Marcin Dalecki)
|
|

|
770

|
771 Nicer toolbar buttons for Motif. (Marcin Dalecki)
|
|

|
|
69
|
773 Mnemonics for the Motif find/replace dialog. (Marcin Dalecki)
|
|
46
|
774
|
|
36
|
775 To be used to set the cursor shape to a bar or a block. No default values,
|
|
|
776 they are not supported by termcap/terminfo.
|
|
|
777
|
|
40
|
778 Autocommands can be defined local to a buffer. This means they will also work
|
|
|
779 when the buffer does not have a name or no specific name. See
|
|
|
780 |autocmd-buflocal|. (Yakov Lerner)
|
|
|
781
|
|
179
|
782 For xterm most combinations of modifiers with function keys are recognized.
|
|
|
783 |xterm-modifier-keys|
|
|
|
784
|
|
481
|
785 When 'verbose' is set the output of ":highlight" will show where a highlight
|
|
|
786 item was last set.
|
|
502
|
787 When 'verbose' is set the output of the ":map", ":abbreviate", ":command",
|
|
|
788 ":function" and ":autocmd" commands will show where it was last defined.
|
|
|
789 (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
481
|
790
|
|
505
|
791 ":function /pattern" lists functions matching the pattern.
|
|
|
792
|
|
523
|
793 "1gd" can be used like "gd" but ignores matches in a {} block that ends before
|
|
|
794 the cursor position. Likewise for "1gD" and "gD".
|
|
|
795
|
|
533
|
796 'scrolljump' can be set to a negative number to scroll a percentage of the
|
|
|
797 window height.
|
|
|
798
|
|
541
|
799 The |v:scrollstart| variable has been added to help finding the location in
|
|
|
800 your script that causes the hit-enter prompt.
|
|
|
801
|
|
591
|
802 To make it possible to handle the situation that a file is being edited that
|
|
|
803 is already being edited by another Vim instance, the |SwapExists| event has
|
|
|
804 been added. The |v:swapname|, |v:swapchoice| and |v:swapcommand| variables
|
|
|
805 can be used, for example to use the |client-server| functionality to bring the
|
|
|
806 other Vim to the foreground.
|
|
604
|
807 When starting Vim with a "-t tag" argument, there is an existing swapfile and
|
|
|
808 the user selects "quit" or "abort" then exit Vim.
|
|
591
|
809
|
|
693
|
810 Undo now also restores the '< and '> marks. "gv" selects the same area as
|
|
|
811 before the change and undo.

814 IMPROVEMENTS *improvements-7*
|
|
|
815
|
|
10
|
816 ":helpgrep" accepts a language specifier after the pattern: "pat@it".
|
|
|
817
|
|
15
|
818 Move the help for printing to a separate help file. It's quite a lot now.
|
|
|
819
|
|
716
|
820 When doing completion for ":!cmd", ":r !cmd" or ":w !cmd" executable files are
|
|
|
821 found in $PATH instead of looking for ordinary files in the current directlry.
|
|
|
822
|
|
557
|
823 When ":silent" is used and a backwards range is given for an Ex command the
|
|
|
824 range is swapped automatically instead of asking if that is OK.
|
|
|
825
|
|
181
|
826 The pattern matching code was changed from a recursive function to an
|
|
|
827 iterative mechanism. This avoids out-of-stack errors. State is stored in
|
|
|
828 allocated memory, running out of memory can always be detected. Allows
|
|
|
829 matching more complex things, but Vim may seem to hang while doing that.
|
|
|
830
|
|
634
|
831 Previously some options were always evaluated in the |sandbox|. Now that only
|
|
|
832 happens when the option was set from a modeline or in secure mode. Applies to
|
|
|
833 'balloonexpr', 'foldexpr', 'foldtext' and 'includeexpr'. (Sumner Hayes)
|
|
|
834
|
|
|
835 Some commands and expressions could have nasty side effects, such as using
|
|
|
836 CTRL-R = while editing a search pattern and the expression invokes a function
|
|
|
837 that jumps to another window. The |textlock| has been added to prevent this
|
|
|
838 from happening.
|
|
|
839
|
|
10
|
840 ":breakadd here" and ":breakdel here" can be used to set or delete a
|
|
|
841 breakpoint at the cursor.
|
|
|
842
|
|
673
|
843 It is now possible to define a function with: >
|
|
|
844 :exe "func Test()\n ...\n endfunc"
|
|
|
845
|
|
11
|
846 The tutor was updated to make it simpler to use and added text to explain a
|
|
|
847 few more important commands. Used ideas from Gabriel Zachmann.
|

|
848

|
849 Unix: When libcall() fails obtain an error message with dlerror() and display
|
|
|
850 it. (Johannes Zellner)
|
|
|
851
|
|
587
|
852 Mac and Cygwin: When editing an existing file make the file name the same case
|
|
|
853 of the edited file. Thus when typing ":e os_UNIX.c" the file name becomes
|
|
|
854 "os_unix.c".
|
|
|
855
|
|
13
|
856 Added "nbsp" in 'listchars'. (David Blanchet)
|
|
|
857
|
|
17
|
858 Added the "acwrite" value for the 'buftype' option. This is for a buffer that
|
|
557
|
859 does not have a name that refers to a file and is written with BufWriteCmd
|
|
17
|
860 autocommands.
|
|
|
861
|
|
14
|
862 For lisp indenting and matching parenthesis: (Sergey Khorev)
|
|
|
863 - square brackets are recognized properly
|
|
|
864 - #\(, #\), #\[ and #\] are recognized as character literals
|
|
|
865 - Lisp line comments (delimited by semicolon) are recognized
|
|
|
866
|
|
19
|
867 Added the "count" argument to match(), matchend() and matchstr(). (Ilya Sher)
|
|
|
868
|
|
20
|
869 winnr() takes an optional "$" and "#" arguments. (Nikolai Weibull, Yegappan
|
|
|
870 Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
871
|
|
713
|
872 Added 's' flag to search(): set ' mark if cursor moved. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
20
|
873 Added 'n' flag to search(): don't move the cursor. (Nikolai Weibull)
|
|
713
|
874 Added 'c' flag to search(): accept match at the cursor.
|
|
|
875 Added 'e' flag to search(): move to end of the match. (Benji Fisher)
|
|
|
876 Added 'p' flag to search(): return number of sub-pattern. (Benji Fisher)
|
|
|
877 These also apply to searchpos(), searchpair() and searchpairpos().
|
|
|
878 The search() and searchpair() functions have an extra argument to specify
|
|
|
879 where to stop searching. Speeds up searches that should not continue too far.
|
|

880
|
|
22
|
881 When uncompressing fails in the gzip plugin, give an error message but don't
|
|
|
882 delete the raw text. Helps if the file has a .gz extension but is not
|
|
|
883 actually compressed. (Andrew Pimlott)
|
|
|
884
|
|
|
885 When C, C++ or IDL syntax is used, may additionally load doxygen syntax.
|
|
|
886 Also support setting the filetype to "cdoxygen" for C plus doxygen syntax.
|
|
|
887 (Michael Geddes)
|
|
|
888
|
|
|
889 The ":registers" command now displays multi-byte characters properly.
|
|
|
890
|
|
|
891 VMS: In the usage message mention that a slash can be used to make a flag
|
|
|
892 upper case. Add color support to the builtin vt320 terminal codes.
|
|
|
893 (Zoltan Arpadffy)
|
|
|
894
|
|
23
|
895 For the '%' item in 'viminfo', allow a number to set a maximum for the number
|
|
|
896 of buffers.
|
|
|
897
|
|
26
|
898 When a file looks like a shell script, check for an "exec" command that starts
|
|
|
899 the tcl interpreter. (suggested by Alexios Zavras)
|
|
|
900
|
|
|
901 Support conversion between utf-8 and latin9 (iso-8859-15) internally, so that
|
|
|
902 digraphs still work when iconv is not available.
|
|
|
903
|
|
36
|
904 When a session file is loaded while editing an unnamed, empty buffer that
|
|
|
905 buffer is wiped out. Avoids that there is an unused buffer in the buffer
|
|
|
906 list.
|
|
|
907
|
|
|
908 Win32: When libintl.dll supports bind_textdomain_codeset(), use it.
|
|
|
909 (NAKADAIRA Yukihiro)
|
|
|
910
|
|
697
|
911 Win32: Vim was not aware of hard links on NTFS file systems. These are
|
|
|
912 detected now for when 'backupcopy' is "auto". Also fixed a bogus "file has
|
|
|
913 been changed since reading it" error for links.
|
|
|
914
|
|
36
|
915 When foldtext() finds no text after removing the comment leader, use the
|
|
|
916 second line of the fold. Helps for C-style /* */ comments where the first
|
|
|
917 line is just "/*".
|
|
|
918
|
|
39
|
919 When editing the same file from two systems (e.g., Unix and MS-Windows) there
|
|
|
920 mostly was no warning for an existing swap file, because the name of the
|
|
|
921 edited file differs (e.g., y:\dir\file vs /home/me/dir/file). Added a flag to
|
|
|
922 the swap file to indicate it is in the same directory as the edited file. The
|
|
|
923 used path then doesn't matter and the check for editing the same file is much
|
|
|
924 more reliable.
|
|
|
925
|
|
594
|
926 Unix: When editing a file through a symlink the swap file would use the name
|
|
|
927 of the symlink. Now use the name of the actual file, so that editing the same
|
|
|
928 file twice is detected. (suggestions by Stefano Zacchiroli and James Vega)
|
|
|
929
|
|
39
|
930 Client-server communication now supports 'encoding'. When setting 'encoding'
|
|
|
931 in a Vim server to "utf-8", and using "vim --remote fname" in a console,
|
|
|
932 "fname" is converted from the console encoding to utf-8. Also allows Vims
|
|
|
933 with different 'encoding' settings to exchange messages.
|
|
|
934
|
|
41
|
935 Internal: Changed ga_room into ga_maxlen, so that it doesn't need to be
|
|
|
936 incremented/decremented each time.
|
|
|
937
|
|
69
|
938 Included a few improvements for Motif from Marcin Dalecki. Draw label
|
|
46
|
939 contents ourselves to make them handle fonts in a way configurable by Vim and
|
|
|
940 a bit less dependent on the X11 font management.
|
|
|
941
|
|
56
|
942 When a register is empty it is not stored in the viminfo file.
|
|
|
943
|
|
100
|
944 Removed the tcltags script, it's obsolete.
|
|
|
945
|
|
284
|
946 ":redir @*>>" and ":redir @+>>" append to the clipboard. Better check for
|
|
169
|
947 invalid characters after the register name. |:redir|
|
|
|
948
|
|
|
949 ":redir => variable" and ":redir =>> variable" write or append to a variable.
|
|
|
950 (Yegappan Lakshmanan) |:redir|
|
|
123
|
951
|
|
445
|
952 ":redir @{a-z}>>" appends to register a to z. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
284
|
953
|
|
294
|
954 The 'verbosefile' option can be used to log messages in a file. Verbose
|
|
|
955 messages are not displayed then. The "-V{filename}" argument can be used to
|
|
|
956 log startup messages.
|
|
|
957
|
|
123
|
958 ":let g:" lists global variables.
|
|
|
959 ":let b:" lists buffer-local variables.
|
|
|
960 ":let w:" lists window-local variables.
|
|
|
961 ":let v:" lists Vim variables.
|
|
|
962
|
|
149
|
963 The stridx() and strridx() functions take a third argument, where to start
|
|
|
964 searching. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
136
|
965
|
|
284
|
966 The getreg() function takes an extra argument to be able to get the expression
|
|
|
967 for the '=' register instead of the result of evaluating it.
|
|
|
968
|
|
|
969 The setline() function can take a List argument to set multiple lines. When
|
|
|
970 the line number is just below the last line the line is appended.
|
|
|
971
|
|
162
|
972 g CTRL-G also shows the number of characters if it differs from the number of
|
|
|
973 bytes.
|
|
|
974
|
|
169
|
975 Completion for ":debug" and entering an expression for the '=' register. Skip
|
|
|
976 ":" between range and command name. (Peter winters)
|
|
|
977
|
|
|
978 CTRL-Q in Insert mode now works like CTRL-V by default. Previously it was
|
|
|
979 ignored.
|
|
|
980
|
|
|
981 When "beep" is included in 'debug' a function or script that causes a beep
|
|
|
982 will result in a message with the source of the error.
|
|
|
983
|
|
170
|
984 When completing buffer names, match with "\(^\|[\/]\)" instead of "^", so that
|
|
|
985 ":buf stor<Tab>" finds both "include/storage.h" and "storage/main.c".
|
|
|
986
|
|
|
987 To count items (pattern matches) without changing the buffer the 'n' flag has
|
|
|
988 been added to |:substitute|. See |count-items|.
|
|
|
989
|
|
175
|
990 The "screen.linux" $TERM name is recognized to set the default for
|
|
534
|
991 'background' to "dark". (Ciaran McCreesh) Also for "cygwin" and "putty".
|
|
179
|
992
|
|
|
993 The |FileChangedShell| autocommand event can now use the |v:fcs_reason|
|
|
|
994 variable that specifies what triggered the event. |v:fcs_choice| can be used
|
|
|
995 to reload the buffer or ask the user what to do.
|
|
175
|
996
|
|
181
|
997 Not all modifiers were recognized for xterm function keys. Added the
|
|
|
998 possibility in term codes to end in ";*X" or "O*X", where X is any character
|
|
|
999 and the * stands for the modifier code.
|
|
|
1000 Added the <xUp>, <xDown>, <xLeft> and <xRight> keys, to be able to recognize
|
|
|
1001 the two forms that xterm can send their codes in and still handle all possible
|
|
|
1002 modifiers.
|
|
|
1003
|
|
218
|
1004 getwinvar() now also works to obtain a buffer-local option from the specified
|
|
|
1005 window.
|
|
|
1006
|
|
234
|
1007 Added the "%s" item to 'errorformat'. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
1008
|
|
271
|
1009 GTK GUI: use the GTK file dialog when it's available. Mix from patches by
|
|
|
1010 Grahame Bowland and Evan Webb.
|
|
|
1011
|
|
323
|
1012 Added ":scriptnames" to bugreport.vim, so that we can see what plugins were
|
|
|
1013 used.
|
|
|
1014
|
|
333
|
1015 Win32: If the user changes the setting for the number of lines a scroll wheel
|
|
|
1016 click scrolls it is now used immediately. Previously Vim would need to be
|
|
|
1017 restarted.
|
|
|
1018
|
|
337
|
1019 When using @= in an expression the value is expression @= contains. ":let @=
|
|
|
1020 = value" can be used to set the register contents.
|
|
|
1021
|
|
404
|
1022 A ! can be added to ":popup" to have the popup menu appear at the mouse
|
|
|
1023 pointer position instead of the text cursor.
|
|
|
1024
|
|
408
|
1025 The table with encodings has been expanded with many MS-Windows codepages,
|
|
|
1026 such as cp1250 and cp737, so that these can also be used on Unix without
|
|
|
1027 prepending "8bit-".
|
|
481
|
1028 When an encoding name starts with "microsoft-cp" ignore the "microsoft-" part.
|
|
408
|
1029
|
|
|
1030 Added the "customlist" completion argument to a user-defined command. The
|
|
|
1031 user-defined completion function should return the completion candidates as a
|
|
445
|
1032 Vim List and the returned results are not filtered by Vim. (Yegappan
|
|
|
1033 Lakshmanan)
|
|
408
|
1034
|
|
436
|
1035 Win32: Balloons can have multiple lines if common controls supports it.
|
|
|
1036 (Sergey Khorev)
|
|
|
1037
|
|
462
|
1038 For 'errorformat' it was not possible to have a file name that contains the
|
|
|
1039 character that follows after "%f". For example, in "%f:%l:%m" the file name
|
|
|
1040 could not contain ":". Now include the first ":" where the rest of the
|
|
|
1041 pattern matches. In the example a ":" not followed by a line number is
|
|
|
1042 included in the file name. (suggested by Emanuele Giaquinta)
|
|
|
1043
|
|
480
|
1044 For command-line completion the matches for various types of arguments are now
|
|
|
1045 sorted: user commands, variables, syntax names, etc.
|
|
|
1046
|
|
494
|
1047 When no locale is set, thus using the "C" locale, Vim will work with latin1
|
|
557
|
1048 characters, using its own isupper()/toupper()/etc. functions.
|
|
494
|
1049
|
|
500
|
1050 When using an rxvt terminal emulator guess the value of 'background' using the
|
|
|
1051 COLORFGBG environment variable. (Ciaran McCreesh)
|
|
|
1052
|
|
|
1053 Also support t_SI and t_EI on Unix with normal features. (Ciaran McCreesh)
|
|
|
1054
|
|
520
|
1055 When 'foldcolumn' is one then put as much info in it as possible. This allows
|
|
|
1056 closing a fold with the mouse by clicking on the '-'.
|
|
|
1057
|
|
531
|
1058 input() takes an optional completion argument to specify the type of
|
|
|
1059 completion supported for the input. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
1060
|
|
533
|
1061 "dp" works with more than two buffers in diff mode if there is only one where
|
|
|
1062 'modifiable' is set.
|
|
|
1063
|
|
538
|
1064 When the 'include' option contains \zs the file name found is what is being
|
|
|
1065 matched from \zs to the end or \ze. Useful to pass more to 'includeexpr'.
|
|
|
1066
|
|
541
|
1067 Loading plugins on startup now supports subdirectories in the plugin
|
|
|
1068 directory. |load-plugins|
|
|
|
1069
|
|
548
|
1070 In the foldcolumn always show the '+' for a closed fold, so that it can be
|
|
|
1071 opened easily. It may overwrite another character, esp. if 'foldcolumn' is 1.
|
|
|
1072
|
|
|
1073 It is now possible to get the W10 message again by setting 'readonly'. Useful
|
|
|
1074 in the FileChangedRO autocommand when checking out the file fails.
|
|
|
1075
|
|
552
|
1076 Unix: When open() returns EFBIG give an appropriate message.
|
|
|
1077
|
|
575
|
1078 ":mksession" sets the SessionLoad variable to notify plugins. A modeline is
|
|
|
1079 added to the session file to set 'filetype' to "vim".
|
|
|
1080
|
|
580
|
1081 In the ATTENTION prompt put the "Delete it" choice before "Quit" to make it
|
|
|
1082 more logical. (Robert Webb)
|
|
|
1083
|
|
591
|
1084 When appending to a file while the buffer has no name the name of the appended
|
|
|
1085 file would be used for the current buffer. But the buffer contents is
|
|
|
1086 actually different from the file content. Don't set the file name, unless the
|
|
|
1087 'P' flag is present in 'cpoptions'.
|
|
|
1088
|
|
594
|
1089 When starting to edit a new file and the directory for the file doesn't exist
|
|
|
1090 then Vim will report "[New DIRECTORY]" instead of "[New File] to give the user
|
|
|
1091 a hint that something might be wrong.
|
|
|
1092
|
|
601
|
1093 Win32: Preserve the hidden attribute of the viminfo file.
|
|
|
1094
|
|
604
|
1095 In Insert mode CTRL-A didn't keep the last inserted text when using CTRL-O and
|
|
|
1096 then a cursor key. Now keep the previously inserted text if nothing is
|
|
|
1097 inserted after the CTRL-O. Allows using CTRL-O commands to move the cursor
|
|
|
1098 without losing the last inserted text.
|
|
601
|
1099
|
|
615
|
1100 The exists() function now supports checking for autocmd group definition
|
|
619
|
1101 and for supported autocommand events. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
613
|
1102
|
|
625
|
1103 Allow using ":global" in the sandbox, it doesn't do anything harmful by
|
|
|
1104 itself.
|
|
|
1105
|
|
634
|
1106 ":saveas asdf.c" will set 'filetype' to c when it's empty. Also for ":w
|
|
|
1107 asdf.c" when it sets the filename for the buffer.
|
|
|
1108
|
|
667
|
1109 Insert mode completion for whole lines now also searches unloaded buffers.
|
|
634
|
1110
|
|
671
|
1111 The colortest.vim script can now be invoked directly with ":source" or
|
|
|
1112 ":runtime".
|
|
|
1113
|
|
681
|
1114 The 'statusline' option can be local to the window, so that each window can
|
|
|
1115 have a different value. (partly by Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
1116
|
|
680
|
1117 The 'statusline' option and other options that support the same format can now
|
|
|
1118 use these new features:
|
|
|
1119 - When it starts with "%!" the value is first evaluated as an expression
|
|
|
1120 before parsing the value.
|
|
|
1121 - "%#HLname#" can be used to start highlighting with HLname.
|
|
|
1122
|
|
681
|
1123 When 'statusline' is set to something that causes an error message then it is
|
|
|
1124 made empty to avoid an endless redraw loop. Also for other options, such at
|
|
|
1125 'tabline'. ":verbose set statusline" will mention that it was set in an error
|
|
|
1126 handler.
|
|
|
1127
|
|
685
|
1128 When there are several matching tags, the ":tag <name>" and CTRL-] commands
|
|
|
1129 jump to the [count] matching tag. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)

1133 COMPILE TIME CHANGES *compile-changes-7*
|
|
|
1134
|
|
69
|
1135 Dropped the support for the BeOS and Amiga GUI. They were not maintained and
|
|
|
1136 probably didn't work. If you want to work on this: get the Vim 6.x version
|
|
|
1137 and merge it back in.
|
|
|
1138
|
|
169
|
1139 When running the tests and one of them fails to produce "test.out" the
|
|
|
1140 following tests are still executed. This helps when running out of memory.
|
|
|
1141
|
|
359
|
1142 When compiling with EXITFREE defined and the ccmalloc library it is possible
|
|
|
1143 to detect memory leaks. Some memory will always reported as leaked, such as
|
|
|
1144 allocated by X11 library functions and the memory allocated in alloc_cmdbuff()
|
|
|
1145 to store the ":quit" command.
|
|
|
1146
|
|
445
|
1147 Moved the code for printing to src/hardcopy.c.
|
|
|
1148
|
|
|
1149 Moved some code from main() to separate functions to make it easier to see
|
|
|
1150 what is being done. Use a structure to avoid a lot of arguments to the
|
|
|
1151 functions.
|
|
|
1152
|
|
|
1153 Moved unix_expandpath() to misc1.c, so that it can also be used by os_mac.c
|
|
|
1154 without copying the code.
|
|
|
1155
|
|
714
|
1156 --- Mac ---
|
|
|
1157
|
|
|
1158 "make" now creates the Vim.app directory and "make install" copies it to its
|
|
|
1159 final destination. (Raf)
|
|
|
1160
|
|
|
1161 Made it possible to compile with Motif, Athena or GTK without tricks and still
|
|
|
1162 being able to use the MacRoman conversion. Added the os_mac_conv.c file.
|
|
|
1163
|
|
|
1164 When running "make install" the runtime files are installed as for Unix.
|
|
502
|
1165 Avoids that too many files are copied. When running "make" a link to the
|
|
|
1166 runtime files is created to avoid a recursive copy that takes much time.
|
|
|
1167
|
|
714
|
1168 Configure will attempt to build Vim for both Intel and PowerPC. The
|
|
693
|
1169 --with-mac-arch configure argument can change it.
|

1173 The Make_mvc.mak file was adjusted to work with the latest MS compilers,
|
|
|
1174 including the free version of Visual Studio 2005. (George Reilly)
|
|
|
1175
|
|
|
1176 INSTALLpc.txt was updated for the recent changes. (George Reilly)
|
|
|
1177
|
|
|
1178 The distributed executable is now produced with the free Visual C++ Toolkit
|
|
|
1179 2003 and other free SDK chunks. msvcsetup.bat was added to support this.
|
|
|
1180
|
|
|
1181 Also generate the .pdb file that can be used to generate a useful crash report
|
|
|
1182 on MS-Windows. (George Reilly)

1185 BUG FIXES *bug-fixes-7*
|
|
|
1186
|
|
10
|
1187 When using PostScript printing on MS-DOS the default 'printexpr' used "lpr"
|
|
|
1188 instead of "copy". When 'printdevice' was empty the copy command did not
|
|
|
1189 work. Use "LPT1" then.
|
|
|
1190
|
|
|
1191 The GTK font dialog uses a font size zero when the font name doesn't include a
|
|
|
1192 size. Use a default size of 10.
|
|
|
1193
|
|
|
1194 This example in the documentation didn't work:
|
|
|
1195 :e `=foo . ".c" `
|
|
|
1196 Skip over the expression in `=expr` when looking for comments, |, % and #.
|
|
|
1197
|
|
|
1198 When ":helpgrep" doesn't find anything there is no error message.
|
|
|
1199
|
|
|
1200 "L" and "H" did not take closed folds into account.
|
|
|
1201
|
|
|
1202 Win32: The "-P title" argument stopped at the first title that matched, even
|
|
|
1203 when it doesn't support MDI.
|
|
|
1204
|
|
|
1205 Mac GUI: CTRL-^ and CTRL-@ did not work.
|
|
|
1206
|
|
|
1207 "2daw" on "word." at the end of a line didn't include the preceding white
|
|
|
1208 space.
|
|
|
1209
|
|
|
1210 Win32: Using FindExecutable() doesn't work to find a program. Use
|
|
|
1211 SearchPath() instead. For executable() use $PATHEXT when the program searched
|
|
|
1212 for doesn't have an extension.
|
|
|
1213
|
|
|
1214 When 'virtualedit' is set, moving the cursor up after appending a character
|
|
|
1215 may move it to a different column. Was caused by auto-formatting moving the
|
|
|
1216 cursor and not putting it back where it was.
|
|
|
1217
|
|
|
1218 When indent was added automatically and then moving the cursor, the indent was
|
|
|
1219 not deleted (like when pressing ESC). The "I" flag in 'cpoptions' can be used
|
|
|
1220 to make it work the old way.
|
|
|
1221
|
|
|
1222 When opening a command-line window, 'textwidth' gets set to 78 by the Vim
|
|
|
1223 filetype plugin. Reset 'textwidth' to 0 to avoid lines are broken.
|
|
|
1224
|
|
|
1225 After using cursor(line, col) moving up/down doesn't keep the same column.
|
|
|
1226
|
|
|
1227 Win32: Borland C before 5.5 requires using ".u." for LowPart and HighPart
|
|
|
1228 fields. (Walter Briscoe)

1230 On Sinix SYS_NMLN isn't always defined. Define it ourselves. (Cristiano De

1233 Printing with PostScript may keep the printer waiting for more. Append a
|
|
|
1234 CTRL-D to the printer output. (Mike Williams)
|
|
|
1235
|
|
16
|
1236 When converting a string with a hex or octal number the leading '-' was
|
|
|
1237 ignored. ":echo '-05' + 0" resulted in 5 instead of -5.
|
|
|
1238
|
|
|
1239 Using "@:" to repeat a command line didn't work when it contains control
|
|
480
|
1240 characters. Also remove "'<,'>" when in Visual mode to avoid that it appears
|
|
|
1241 twice.
|
|
16
|
1242
|
|
17
|
1243 When using file completion for a user command, it would not expand environment
|
|
|
1244 variables like for a regular command with a file argument.
|
|
|
1245
|
|
|
1246 'cindent': When the argument of a #define looks like a C++ class the next line
|
|
|
1247 is indented too much.
|
|
|
1248
|
|
|
1249 When 'comments' includes multi-byte characters inserting the middle part and
|
|
|
1250 alignment may go wrong. 'cindent' also suffers from this for right-aligned
|
|
|
1251 items.
|
|
|
1252
|
|
170
|
1253 Win32: when 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" getenv() still returns strings in the
|
|
|
1254 active codepage. Convert to utf-8. Also for $HOME.
|
|
|
1255
|
|
18
|
1256 The default for 'helplang' was "zh" for both "zh_cn" and "zh_tw". Now use
|
|
|
1257 "cn" or "tw" as intended.
|
|
|
1258
|
|
20
|
1259 When 'bin' is set and 'eol' is not set then line2byte() added the line break
|
|
|
1260 after the last line while it's not there.
|
|
|
1261
|
|
|
1262 Using foldlevel() in a WinEnter autocommand may not work. Noticed when
|
|
|
1263 resizing the GUI shell upon startup.
|
|
|
1264
|
|
|
1265 Python: Using buffer.append(f.readlines()) didn't work. Allow appending a
|
|
|
1266 string with a trailing newline. The newline is ignored.
|
|
|
1267
|
|
21
|
1268 When using the ":saveas f2" command for buffer "f1", the Buffers menu would
|
|
|
1269 contain "f2" twice, one of them leading to "f1". Also trigger the BufFilePre
|
|
|
1270 and BufFilePost events for the alternate buffer that gets the old name.
|
|
|
1271
|
|
22
|
1272 strridx() did not work well when the needle is empty. (Ciaran McCreesh)

|
|
1274 GTK: Avoid a potential hang in gui_mch_wait_for_chars() when input arrives
|
|
|
1275 just before it is invoked
|
|
|
1276
|
|
|
1277 VMS: Occasionally CR characters were inserted in the file. Expansion of
|
|
|
1278 environment variables was not correct. (Zoltan Arpadffy)
|
|
|
1279
|
|
704
|
1280 VMS: Improved low level char input (affects just console mode). (Zoltan
|
|
|
1281 Arpadffy)
|
|
|
1282
|
|
22
|
1283 UTF-8: When 'delcombine' is set "dw" only deleted the last combining character
|
|
|
1284 from the first character of the word.
|
|
|
1285
|
|
|
1286 When using ":sball" in an autocommand only the filetype in one buffer was
|
|
|
1287 detected. Reset did_filetype in enter_buffer().
|
|
|
1288
|
|
|
1289 When using ":argdo" and the window already was at the first argument index,
|
|
|
1290 but not actually editing it, the current buffer would be used instead.
|
|
|
1291
|
|
23
|
1292 When ":next dir/*" includes many matches, adding the names to the argument
|
|
|
1293 list may take an awful lot of time and can't be interrupted. Allow
|
|
|
1294 interrupting this.
|
|
|
1295
|
|
|
1296 When editing a file that was already loaded in a buffer, modelines were not
|
|
|
1297 used. Now window-local options in the modeline are set. Buffer-local options
|
|
|
1298 and global options remain unmodified.
|
|
|
1299
|
|
|
1300 Win32: When 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" in the vimrc file, files from the
|
|
|
1301 command line with non-ASCII characters are not used correctly. Recode the
|
|
|
1302 file names when 'encoding' is set, using the Unicode command line.
|
|
|
1303
|
|
24
|
1304 Win32 console: When the default for 'encoding' ends up to be "latin1", the
|
|
|
1305 default value of 'isprint' was wrong.
|
|
|
1306
|
|
|
1307 When an error message is given while waiting for a character (e.g., when an
|
|
|
1308 xterm reports the number of colors), the hit-enter prompt overwrote the last
|
|
|
1309 line. Don't reset msg_didout in normal_cmd() for K_IGNORE.
|
|
|
1310
|
|
26
|
1311 Mac GUI: Shift-Tab didn't work.
|
|
|
1312
|
|
|
1313 When defining tooltip text, don't translate terminal codes, since it's not
|
|
|
1314 going to be used like a command.
|
|
|
1315
|
|
|
1316 GTK 2: Check the tooltip text for valid utf-8 characters to avoid getting a
|
|
|
1317 GTK error. Invalid characters may appear when 'encoding' is changed.
|
|
|
1318
|
|
|
1319 GTK 2: Add a safety check for invalid utf-8 sequences, they can crash pango.
|
|
|
1320
|
|
|
1321 Win32: When 'encoding' is changed while starting up, use the Unicode command
|
|
|
1322 line to convert the file arguments to 'encoding'. Both for the GUI and the
|
|
|
1323 console version.
|
|
|
1324
|
|
|
1325 Win32 GUI: latin9 text (iso-8859-15) was not displayed correctly, because
|
|
|
1326 there is no codepage for latin9. Do our own conversion from latin9 to UCS2.
|
|
|
1327
|
|
29
|
1328 When two versions of GTK+ 2 are installed it was possible to use the header
|
|
|
1329 files from one and the library from the other. Use GTK_LIBDIR to put the
|
|
|
1330 directory for the library early in the link flags.
|
|
|
1331
|
|
|
1332 With the GUI find/replace dialog a replace only worked if the pattern was
|
|
|
1333 literal text. Now it works for any pattern.
|
|
|
1334
|
|
36
|
1335 When 'equalalways' is set and 'eadirection' is "hor", ":quit" would still
|
|
|
1336 cause equalizing window heights in the vertical direction.
|
|
|
1337
|
|
|
1338 When ":emenu" is used in a startup script the command was put in the typeahead
|
|
|
1339 buffer, causing a prompt for the crypt key to be messed up.
|
|
|
1340
|
|
|
1341 Mac OS/X: The default for 'isprint' included characters 128-160, causes
|
|
|
1342 problems for Terminal.app.
|
|
|
1343
|
|
|
1344 When a syntax item with "containedin" is used, it may match in the start or
|
|
|
1345 end of a region with a matchgroup, while this doesn't happen for a "contains"
|
|
|
1346 argument.
|
|
|
1347
|
|
|
1348 When a transparent syntax items matches in another item where the highlighting
|
|
|
1349 has already stopped (because of a he= argument), the highlighting would come
|
|
|
1350 back.
|
|
|
1351
|
|
|
1352 When cscope is used to set the quickfix error list, it didn't get set if there
|
|
|
1353 was only one match. (Sergey Khorev)
|
|
|
1354
|
|
|
1355 When 'confirm' is set and using ":bdel" in a modified buffer, then selecting
|
|
|
1356 "cancel", would still give an error message.
|
|
|
1357
|
|
|
1358 The PopUp menu items that started Visual mode didn't work when not in Normal
|
|
|
1359 mode. Switching between selecting a word and a line was not possible.
|
|
|
1360
|
|
|
1361 Win32: The keypad decimal point always resulted in a '.', while on some
|
|
|
1362 keyboards it's a ','. Use MapVirtualKey(VK_DECIMAL, 2).
|
|
|
1363
|
|
|
1364 Removed unused function DisplayCompStringOpaque() from gui_w32.c
|
|
|
1365
|
|
|
1366 In Visual mode there is not always an indication whether the line break is
|
|
|
1367 selected or not. Highlight the character after the line when the line break
|
|
|
1368 is included, e.g., after "v$o".
|
|
|
1369
|
|
|
1370 GTK: The <F10> key can't be mapped, it selects the menu. Disable that with a
|
|
|
1371 GTK setting and do select the menu when <F10> isn't mapped. (David Necas)
|
|
|
1372
|
|
|
1373 After "Y" '[ and '] were not at start/end of the yanked text.
|
|
|
1374
|
|
|
1375 When a telnet connection is dropped Vim preserves files and exits. While
|
|
|
1376 doing that a SIGHUP may arrive and disturbe us, thus ignore it. (Scott
|
|
38
|
1377 Anderson) Also postpone SIGHUP, SIGQUIT and SIGTERM until it's safe to
|
|
|
1378 handle. Added handle_signal().
|
|
|
1379
|
|
39
|
1380 When completing a file name on the command line backslashes are required for
|
|
|
1381 white space. Was only done for a space, not for a Tab.
|
|
|
1382
|
|
|
1383 When configure could not find a terminal library, compiling continued for a
|
|
|
1384 long time before reporting the problem. Added a configure check for tgetent()
|
|
|
1385 being found in a library.
|
|
|
1386
|
|
|
1387 When the cursor is on the first char of the last line a ":g/pat/s///" command
|
|
|
1388 may cause the cursor to be displayed below the text.
|
|
|
1389
|
|
|
1390 Win32: Editing a file with non-ASCII characters doesn't work when 'encoding'
|
|
|
1391 is "utf-8". use _wfullpath() instead of _fullpath(). (Yu-sung Moon)
|
|
|
1392
|
|
|
1393 When recovering the 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' were taken from the
|
|
|
1394 original file instead of from the swapfile. When the file didn't exist, was
|
|
|
1395 empty or the option was changed (e.g., with ":e ++fenc=cp123 file") it could
|
|
|
1396 be wrong. Now store 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' in the swapfile and use
|
|
|
1397 the values when recovering.
|
|
|
1398
|
|
|
1399 ":bufdo g/something/p" overwrites each last printed text line with the file
|
|
|
1400 message for the next buffer. Temporarily clear 'shortmess' to avoid that.
|
|
|
1401
|
|
40
|
1402 Win32: Cannot edit a file starting with # with --remote. Do escape % and #
|
|
|
1403 when building the ":drop" command.
|
|
|
1404
|
|
41
|
1405 A comment or | just after a expresion-backtick argument was not recognized.
|
|
|
1406 E.g. in :e `="foo"`"comment.
|
|
|
1407
|
|
46
|
1408 "(" does not stop at an empty sentence (single dot and white space) while ")"
|
|
|
1409 does. Also breaks "das" on that dot.
|
|
|
1410
|
|
|
1411 When doing "yy" with the cursor on a TAB the ruler could be wrong and "k"
|
|
|
1412 moved the cursor to another column.
|
|
|
1413
|
|
|
1414 When 'commentstring' is '"%s' and there is a double quote in the line a double
|
|
|
1415 quote before the fold marker isn't removed in the text displayed for a closed
|
|
|
1416 fold.
|
|
|
1417
|
|
|
1418 In Visual mode, when 'bin' and 'eol' set, g CTRL-G counted the last line
|
|
|
1419 break, resulting in "selected 202 of 201 bytes".

1421 Motif: fonts were not used for dialog components. (Marcin Dalecki)
|
|
46
|
1422
|
|
56
|
1423 Motif: After using a toolbar button the keyboard focus would be on the toolbar
|
|
69
|
1424 (Lesstif problem). (Marcin Dalecki)
|
|
56
|
1425
|
|
51
|
1426 When using "y<C-V>`x" where mark x is in the first column, the last line was
|
|
|
1427 not included.
|
|
|
1428
|
|
|
1429 Not all test scripts work properly on MS-Windows when checked out from CVS.
|
|
|
1430 Use a Vim command to fix all fileformats to dos before executing the tests.
|
|
|
1431
|
|
|
1432 When using ":new" and the file fits in the window, lines could still be above
|
|
|
1433 the window. Now remove empty lines instead of keeping the relative position.
|
|
|
1434
|
|
76
|
1435 Cmdline completion didn't work after ":let var1 var<Tab>".
|
|
|
1436
|
|
91
|
1437 When using ":startinsert" or ":startreplace" when already in Insert mode
|
|
|
1438 (possible when using CTRL-R =), pressing Esc would directly restart Insert
|
|
|
1439 mode. (Peter Winters)
|
|
|
1440
|
|
97
|
1441 "2daw" didn't work at end of file if the last word is a single character.
|
|
|
1442
|
|
100
|
1443 Completion for ":next a'<Tab>" put a backslash before single quote, but it was
|
|
|
1444 not removed when editing a file. Now halve backslashes in save_patterns().
|
|
109
|
1445 Also fix expanding a file name with the shell that contains "\'".
|
|
100
|
1446
|
|
136
|
1447 When doing "1,6d|put" only "fewer lines" was reported. Now a following "more
|
|
|
1448 lines" overwrites the message.
|
|
|
1449
|
|
|
1450 Configure could not handle "-Dfoo=long\ long" in the TCL config output.
|
|
|
1451
|
|
141
|
1452 When searching backwards, using a pattern that matches a newline and uses \zs
|
|
|
1453 after that, didn't find a match. Could also get a hang or end up in the right
|
|
|
1454 column in the wrong line.
|
|
|
1455
|
|
149
|
1456 When $LANG is "sl" for slovenian, the slovak menu was used, since "slovak"
|
|
|
1457 starts with "sl".
|
|
|
1458
|
|
|
1459 When 'paste' is set in the GUI the Paste toolbar button doesn't work. Clear
|
|
|
1460 'paste' when starting the GUI.
|
|
|
1461
|
|
155
|
1462 A message about a wrong viminfo line included the trailing NL.
|
|
|
1463
|
|
159
|
1464 When 'paste' is set in the GUI the toolbar button doesn't work in Insert mode.
|
|
|
1465 Use ":exe" in menu.vim to avoid duplicating the commands, instead of using a
|
|
|
1466 mapping.
|
|
|
1467
|
|
|
1468 Treat "mlterm" as an xterm-like terminal. (Seiichi Sato)
|
|
|
1469
|
|
|
1470 ":z.4" and ":z=4" didn't work Vi compatible.
|
|
|
1471
|
|
162
|
1472 When sourcing a file, editing it and sourcing it again, it could appear twice
|
|
|
1473 in ":scriptnames" and get a new <SID>, because the inode has changed.
|
|
|
1474
|
|
|
1475 When $SHELL is set but empty the 'shell' option would be empty. Don't use an
|
|
|
1476 empty $SHELL value.
|
|
|
1477
|
|
|
1478 A command "w! file" in .vimrc or $EXINIT didn't work. Now it writes an empty
|
|
|
1479 file.
|
|
|
1480
|
|
|
1481 When a CTRL-F command at the end of the file failed, the cursor was still
|
|
|
1482 moved to the start of the line. Now it remains where it is.
|
|
|
1483
|
|
|
1484 When using ":s" or "&" to repeat the last substitute and "$" was used to put
|
|
|
1485 the cursor in the last column, put the cursor in the last column again. This
|
|
|
1486 is Vi compatible.
|
|
|
1487
|
|
164
|
1488 Vim is not fully POSIX compliant but sticks with traditional Vi behavior.
|
|
|
1489 Added a few flags in 'cpoptions' to behave the POSIX way when wanted. The
|
|
|
1490 $VIM_POSIX environment variable is checked to set the default.
|
|
|
1491
|
|
|
1492 Appending to a register didn't insert a line break like Vi. Added the '>'
|
|
|
1493 flag to 'cpoptions' for this.
|
|
|
1494
|
|
|
1495 Using "I" in a line with only blanks appended to the line. This is not Vi
|
|
|
1496 compatible. Added the 'H' flag in 'coptions' for this.
|
|
|
1497
|
|
|
1498 When joining multiple lines the cursor would be at the last joint, but Vi
|
|
|
1499 leaves it at the position where "J" would put it. Added the 'q' flag in
|
|
|
1500 'cpoptions' for this.
|
|
|
1501
|
|
|
1502 Autoindent didn't work for ":insert" and ":append".
|
|
|
1503
|
|
|
1504 Using ":append" in an empty buffer kept the dummy line. Now it's deleted to
|
|
|
1505 be Vi compatible.
|
|
|
1506
|
|
|
1507 When reading commands from a file and stdout goes to a terminal, would still
|
|
|
1508 request the xterm version. Vim can't read it, thus the output went to the
|
|
|
1509 shell and caused trouble there.
|
|
|
1510
|
|
169
|
1511 When redirecting to a register with an invalid name the redirection would
|
|
|
1512 still be done (after an error message). Now reset "redir_reg". (Yegappan
|
|
|
1513 Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
1514
|
|
|
1515 It was not possible to use a NL after a backslash in Ex mode. This is
|
|
|
1516 sometimes used to feed multiple lines to a shell command.
|
|
|
1517
|
|
170
|
1518 When 'cmdheight' is set to 2 in .vimrc and the GUI uses the number of lines
|
|
|
1519 from the terminal we actually get 3 lines for the cmdline in gvim.
|
|
|
1520
|
|
|
1521 When setting $HOME allocated memory would leak.
|
|
|
1522
|
|
179
|
1523 Win32: bold characters may sometimes write in another character cell. Use
|
|
|
1524 unicodepdy[] as for UTF-8. (Taro Muraoka)
|
|
|
1525
|
|
|
1526 ":w fname" didn't work for files with 'buftype' set to "nofile".
|
|
|
1527
|
|
192
|
1528 The method used to locate user commands for completion differed from when they
|
|
|
1529 are executed. Abiguous command names were not completed properly.
|
|
|
1530
|
|
197
|
1531 Incremental search may cause a crash when there is a custom statusline that
|
|
|
1532 indirectly invokes ":normal".
|
|
|
1533
|
|
|
1534 Diff mode failed when $DIFF_OPTIONS was set in the environment. Unset it
|
|
|
1535 before invoking "diff".
|
|
|
1536
|
|
200
|
1537 Completion didn't work after ":argdo", ":windo" and ":bufdo". Also for ":set
|
|
|
1538 &l:opt" and ":set &g:opt". (Peter Winters)
|
|
|
1539
|
|
|
1540 When setting 'ttymouse' to "dec" in an xterm that supports the DEC mouse
|
|
|
1541 locator it doesn't work. Now switch off the mouse before selecting another
|
|
|
1542 mouse model.
|
|
|
1543
|
|
206
|
1544 When the CursorHold event is triggered and the commands peek for typed
|
|
|
1545 characters the typeahead buffer may be messed up, e.g., when a mouse-up event
|
|
|
1546 is received. Avoid invoking the autocommands from the function waiting for a
|
|
|
1547 character, let it put K_CURSORHOLD in the input buffer.
|
|
|
1548
|
|
|
1549 Removed the "COUNT" flag from ":argadd", to avoid ":argadd 1*" to be used like
|
|
218
|
1550 ":1argadd *". Same for ":argdelete" and ":argedit".
|
|
206
|
1551
|
|
|
1552 Avoid that $LANG is used for the menus when LC_MESSAGES is "en_US".
|
|
|
1553
|
|
218
|
1554 Added backslashes before dashes in the vim.1 manual page to make the appear as
|
|
|
1555 real dashes. (Pierr Habouzit)
|
|
|
1556
|
|
|
1557 Where "gq" left the cursor depended on the value of 'formatprg'. Now "gq"
|
|
|
1558 always leaves the cursor at the last line of the formatted text.
|
|
|
1559
|
|
|
1560 When editing a compressed file, such as "changelog.Debian.gz" file, filetype
|
|
|
1561 detection may try to check the contents of the file while it's still
|
|
|
1562 compressed. Skip setting 'filetype' for compressed files until they have been
|
|
|
1563 decompressed. Required for patterns that end in a "*".
|
|
|
1564
|
|
|
1565 Starting with an argument "+cmd" or "-S script" causes the cursor the be moved
|
|
|
1566 to the first line. That breaks a BufReadPost autocommand that uses g`".
|
|
|
1567 Don't move the cursor if it's somewhere past the first line.
|
|
|
1568
|
|
|
1569 "gg=G" while 'modifiable' is off was uninterruptable.
|
|
|
1570
|
|
222
|
1571 When 'encoding' is "sjis" inserting CTRL-V u d800 a few times causes a crash.
|
|
|
1572 Don't insert a DBCS character with a NUL second byte.
|
|
|
1573
|
|
231
|
1574 In Insert mode CTRL-O <Home> didn't move the cursor. Made "ins_at_eol" global
|
|
|
1575 and reset it in nv_home().
|
|
|
1576
|
|
234
|
1577 Wildcard expansion failed: ":w /tmp/$$.`echo test`". Don't put quotes around
|
|
|
1578 spaces inside backticks.
|
|
|
1579
|
|
237
|
1580 After this sequence of commands: Y V p gv: the wrong line is selected. Now
|
|
|
1581 let "gv" select the text that was put, since the original text is deleted.
|
|
|
1582 This should be the most useful thing to do.
|
|
|
1583
|
|
|
1584 ":sleep 100u" sleeps for 100 seconds, not 100 usec as one might expect. Give
|
|
|
1585 an error message when the argument isn't recognized.
|
|
|
1586
|
|
|
1587 In gui_mch_draw_string() in gui_w32.c "unibuflen" wasn't static, resulting in
|
|
|
1588 reallocating the buffer every time. (Alexei Alexandrov)
|
|
|
1589
|
|
242
|
1590 When using a Python "atexit" function it was not invoked when Vim exits. Now
|
|
|
1591 call Py_Finalize() for that. (Ugo Di Girolamo)
|
|
323
|
1592 This breaks the thread stuff though, fixed by Ugo.

|
1594 GTK GUI: using a .vimrc with "set cmdheight=2 lines=43" and ":split" right
|
|
|
1595 after startup, the window layout is messed up. (Michael Schaap) Added
|
|
|
1596 win_new_shellsize() call in gui_init() to fix the topframe size.
|
|
|
1597
|
|
|
1598 Trick to get ...MOUSE_NM not used when there are vertical splits. Now pass
|
|
|
1599 column -1 for the left most window and add MOUSE_COLOFF for others. Limits
|
|
|
1600 mouse column to 10000.
|
|
|
1601
|
|
|
1602 searchpair() may hang when the end pattern has "\zs" at the end. Check that
|
|
|
1603 we find the same position again and advance one character.
|
|
|
1604
|
|
|
1605 When in diff mode and making a change that causes the "changed" highlighting
|
|
|
1606 to disappear or reappear, it was still highlighted in another window.
|
|
|
1607
|
|
271
|
1608 When a ":next" command fails because the user selects "Abort" at the ATTENTION
|
|
|
1609 prompt the argument index was advanced anyway.
|
|
|
1610
|
|
|
1611 When "~" is in 'iskeyword' the "gd" doesn't work, it's used for the previous
|
|
|
1612 substitute pattern. Put "\V" in the pattern to avoid that.
|
|
|
1613
|
|
274
|
1614 Use of sprintf() sometimes didn't check properly for buffer overflow. Also
|
|
|
1615 when using smsg(). Included code for snprintf() to avoid having to do size
|
|
|
1616 checks where invoking them
|
|
|
1617
|
|
279
|
1618 ":help \=<Tab>" didn't find "sub-replace-\=". Wild menu for help tags didn't
|
|
|
1619 show backslashes. ":he :s\=" didn't work.
|
|
|
1620
|
|
|
1621 When reading an errorfile "~/" in a file name was not expanded.
|
|
|
1622
|
|
|
1623 GTK GUI: When adding a scrollbar (e.g. when using ":vsplit") in a script or
|
|
|
1624 removing it the window size may change. GTK sends us resize events when we
|
|
|
1625 change the window size ourselves, but they may come at an unexpected moment.
|
|
|
1626 Peek for a character to get any window resize events and fix 'columns' and
|
|
|
1627 'lines' to undo this.
|
|
|
1628
|
|
284
|
1629 After deleting files from the argument list a session file generated with
|
|
|
1630 ":mksession" may contain invalid ":next" commands.
|
|
|
1631
|
|
|
1632 When 'shortmess' is empty and 'keymap' set to accents, in Insert mode CTRL-N
|
|
|
1633 may cause the hit-enter prompt. Typing 'a then didn't result in the accented
|
|
|
1634 character. Put the character typed at the prompt back in the typeahead buffer
|
|
|
1635 so that mapping is done in the right mode.
|
|
|
1636
|
|
337
|
1637 setbufvar() and setwinvar() did not give error messages.
|
|
|
1638
|
|
|
1639 It was possible to set a variable with an illegal name, e.g. with setbufvar().
|
|
344
|
1640 It was possible to define a function with illegal name, e.t. ":func F{-1}()"
|
|
|
1641
|
|
|
1642 CTRL-W F and "gf" didn't use the same method to get the file name.
|
|
337
|
1643
|
|
375
|
1644 When reporting a conversion error the line number of the last error could be
|
|
|
1645 given. Now report the first encountered error.
|
|
|
1646
|
|
|
1647 When using ":e ++enc=name file" and iconv() was used for conversion an error
|
|
591
|
1648 caused a fall-back to no conversion. Now replace a character with '?' and
|
|
375
|
1649 continue.
|
|
|
1650
|
|
404
|
1651 When opening a new buffer the local value of 'bomb' was not initialized from
|
|
|
1652 the global value.
|
|
|
1653
|
|
415
|
1654 Win32: When using the "Edit with Vim" entry the file name was limited to about
|
|
|
1655 200 characters.
|
|
|
1656
|
|
436
|
1657 When using command line completion for ":e *foo" and the file "+foo" exists
|
|
|
1658 the resulting command ":e +foo" doesn't work. Now insert a backslash: ":e
|
|
|
1659 \+foo".
|
|
|
1660
|
|
446
|
1661 When the translation of "-- More --" was not 10 characters long the following
|
|
|
1662 message would be in the wrong position.
|
|
|
1663
|
|
|
1664 At the more-prompt the last character in the last line wasn't drawn.
|
|
|
1665
|
|
|
1666 When deleting non-existing text while 'virtualedit' is set the '[ and '] marks
|
|
|
1667 were not set.
|
|
|
1668
|
|
462
|
1669 Win32: Could not use "**/" in 'path', it had to be "**\".
|
|
|
1670
|
|
481
|
1671 The search pattern "\n" did not match at the end of the last line.
|
|
|
1672
|
|
|
1673 Searching for a pattern backwards, starting on the NUL at the end of the line
|
|
|
1674 and 'encoding' is "utf-8" would match the pattern just before it incorrectly.
|
|
|
1675 Affected searchpair('/\*', '', '\*/').
|
|
|
1676
|
|
482
|
1677 For the Find/Replace dialog it was possible that not finding the text resulted
|
|
|
1678 in an error message while redrawing, which cleared the syntax highlighting
|
|
|
1679 while it was being used, resulting in a crash. Now don't clear syntax
|
|
|
1680 highlighting, disable it with b_syn_error.
|
|
|
1681
|
|
497
|
1682 Win32: Combining UTF-8 characters were drawn on the previous character.
|
|
|
1683 Could be noticed with a Thai font.
|
|
|
1684
|
|
507
|
1685 Output of ":function" could leave some of the typed text behind. (Yegappan
|
|
|
1686 Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
1687
|
|
511
|
1688 When the command line history has only a few lines the command line window
|
|
|
1689 would be opened with these lines above the first window line.
|
|
|
1690
|
|
|
1691 When using a command line window for search strings ":qa" would result in
|
|
|
1692 searching for "qa" instead of quitting all windows.
|
|
|
1693
|
|
520
|
1694 GUI: When scrolling with the scrollbar and there is a line that doesn't fit
|
|
|
1695 redrawing may fail. Make sure w_skipcol is valid before redrawing.
|
|
|
1696
|
|
534
|
1697 Limit the values of 'columns' and 'lines' to avoid an overflow in Rows *
|
|
|
1698 Columns. Fixed bad effects when running out of memory (command line would be
|
|
|
1699 reversed, ":qa!" resulted in ":!aq").
|
|
|
1700
|
|
557
|
1701 Motif: "gvim -iconic" opened the window anyway. (David Harrison)
|
|
|
1702
|
|
|
1703 There is a tiny chance that a symlink gets created between checking for an
|
|
|
1704 existing file and creating a file. Use the O_NOFOLLOW for open() if it's
|
|
|
1705 available.
|
|
|
1706
|
|
|
1707 In an empty line "ix<CTRL-O>0" moved the cursor to after the line instead of
|
|
|
1708 sticking to the first column.
|
|
|
1709
|
|
572
|
1710 When using ":wq" and a BufWriteCmd autocmd uses inputsecret() the text was
|
|
|
1711 echoed anyway. Set terminal to raw mode in getcmdline().
|
|
|
1712
|
|
580
|
1713 Unix: ":w a;b~c" caused an error in expanding wildcards.
|
|
|
1714
|
|
591
|
1715 When appending to a file with ":w >>fname" in a buffer without a name, causing
|
|
|
1716 the buffer to use "fname", the modified flag was reset.
|
|
|
1717
|
|
|
1718 When appending to to current file the "not edited" flag would be reset.
|
|
|
1719 ":w" would overwrite the file accidentally.
|
|
|
1720
|
|
594
|
1721 Unix: When filtering text with an external command Vim would still read input,
|
|
|
1722 causing text typed for the command (e.g., a password) to be eaten and echoed.
|
|
|
1723 Don't read input when the terminal is in cooked mode.
|
|
|
1724
|
|
604
|
1725 The Cygwin version of xxd used CR/LF line separators. (Corinna Vinschen)
|
|
|
1726
|
|
|
1727 Unix: When filtering text through a shell command some resulting text may be
|
|
|
1728 dropped. Now after detecting that the child has exited try reading some more
|
|
|
1729 of its output.
|
|
|
1730
|
|
607
|
1731 When inside input(), using "CTRL-R =" and the expression throws an exception
|
|
|
1732 the command line was not abandoned but it wasn't used either. Now abandon
|
|
|
1733 typing the command line.
|
|
|
1734
|
|
610
|
1735 'delcombine' was also used in Visual and Select mode and for commands like
|
|
|
1736 "cl". That was illogical and has been disabled.
|
|
|
1737
|
|
|
1738 When recording while a CursorHold autocommand was defined special keys would
|
|
|
1739 appear in the register. Now the CursorHold event is not triggered while
|
|
|
1740 recording.
|
|
|
1741
|
|
615
|
1742 Unix: the src/configure script used ${srcdir-.}, not all shells understand
|
|
|
1743 that. Use ${srcdir:-.} instead.
|
|
|
1744
|
|
619
|
1745 When editing file "a" which is a symlink to file "b" that doesn't exist,
|
|
|
1746 writing file "a" to create "b" and then ":split b" resulted in two buffers on
|
|
|
1747 the same file with two different swapfile names. Now set the inode in the
|
|
|
1748 buffer when creating a new file.
|
|
|
1749
|
|
620
|
1750 When 'esckeys' is not set don't send the xterm code to request the version
|
|
|
1751 string, because it may cause trouble in Insert mode.
|
|
|
1752
|
|
|
1753 When evaluating an expression for CTRL-R = on the command line it was possible
|
|
632
|
1754 to call a function that opens a new window, resulting in errors for
|
|
634
|
1755 incremental search, and many other nasty things were possible. Now use the
|
|
|
1756 |textlock| to disallow changing the buffer or jumping to another window
|
|
625
|
1757 to protect from unexpected behavior. Same for CTRL-\ e.
|
|
620
|
1758
|
|
|
1759 "d(" deleted the character under the cursor, while the documentation specified
|
|
|
1760 an exclusive motion. Vi also doesn't delete the character under the cursor.
|
|
|
1761
|
|
|
1762 Shift-Insert in Insert mode could put the cursor before the last character
|
|
|
1763 when it just fits in the window. In coladvance() don't stop at the window
|
|
|
1764 edge when filling with spaces and when in Insert mode. In mswin.vim avoid
|
|
|
1765 getting a beep from the "l" command.
|
|
|
1766
|
|
625
|
1767 Win32 GUI: When Alt-F4 is used to close the window and Cancel is selected in
|
|
|
1768 the dialog then Vim would insert <M-F4> in the text. Now it's ignored.
|
|
|
1769
|
|
|
1770 When ":silent! {cmd}" caused the swap file dialog, which isn't displayed,
|
|
|
1771 there would still be a hit-enter prompt.
|
|
|
1772
|
|
626
|
1773 Requesting the termresponse (|t_RV|) early may cause problems with "-c"
|
|
|
1774 arguments that invoke an external command or even "-c quit". Postpone it
|
|
|
1775 until after executing "-c" arguments.
|
|
|
1776
|
|
|
1777 When typing in Insert mode so that a new line is started, using CTRL-G u to
|
|
|
1778 break undo and start a new change, then joining the lines with <BS> caused
|
|
|
1779 undo info to be missing. Now reset the insertion start point.
|
|
|
1780
|
|
|
1781 Syntax HL: When a region start match has a matchgroup and an offset that
|
|
|
1782 happens to be after the end of the line then it continued in the next line and
|
|
|
1783 stopped at the region end match, making the region continue after that.
|
|
|
1784 Now check for the column being past the end of the line in syn_add_end_off().
|
|
|
1785
|
|
630
|
1786 When changing a file, setting 'swapfile' off and then on again, making another
|
|
|
1787 change and killing Vim, then some blocks may be missing from the swapfile.
|
|
|
1788 When 'swapfile' is switched back on mark all blocks in the swapfile as dirty.
|
|
|
1789 Added mf_set_dirty().
|
|
|
1790
|
|
|
1791 Expanding wildcards in a command like ":e aap;<>!" didn't work. Put
|
|
|
1792 backslashes before characters that are special to the shell. (Adri Verhoef)
|
|
|
1793
|
|
632
|
1794 A CursorHold autocommand would cause a message to be cleared. Don't show the
|
|
|
1795 special key for the event for 'showcmd'.
|
|
|
1796
|
|
|
1797 When expanding a file name for a shell command, as in "!cmd foo<Tab>" or ":r
|
|
|
1798 !cmd foo<Tab>" also escape characters that are special for the shell:
|
|
|
1799 "!;&()<>".
|
|
|
1800
|
|
634
|
1801 When the name of the buffer was set by a ":r fname" command |cpo-f| no
|
|
|
1802 autocommands were triggered to notify about the change in the buffer list.
|
|
|
1803
|
|
|
1804 In the quickfix buffer 'bufhidden' was set to "delete", which caused closing
|
|
|
1805 the quickfix window to leave an unlisted "No Name" buffer behind every time.
|
|
|
1806
|
|
637
|
1807 Win32: when using two screens of different size, setting 'lines' to a large
|
|
|
1808 value didn't fill the whole screen. (SungHyun Nam)
|
|
|
1809
|
|
640
|
1810 Win32 installer: The generated _vimrc contained an absolute path to diff.exe.
|
|
|
1811 After upgrading it becomes invalid. Now use $VIMRUNTIME instead.
|
|
|
1812
|
|
644
|
1813 The command line was cleared to often when 'showmode' was set and ":silent
|
|
|
1814 normal vy" was used. Don't clear the command line unless the mode was
|
|
|
1815 actually displayed. Added the "mode_displayed" variable.
|
|
|
1816
|
|
648
|
1817 The "load session" toolbar item could not handle a space or other special
|
|
|
1818 characters in v:this_session.
|
|
|
1819
|
|
|
1820 ":set sta ts=8 sw=4 sts=2" deleted 4 spaces halfway a line instead of 2.
|
|
|
1821
|
|
651
|
1822 In a multi-byte file the foldmarker could be recognized in the trail byte.

1825 Pasting with CTRL-V and menu didn't work properly when some commands are
|
|
|
1826 mapped. Use ":normal!" instead of ":normal". (Tony Apuzzo)
|
|
|
1827
|
|
|
1828 Crashed when expanding a file name argument in backticks.
|
|
|
1829
|
|
666
|
1830 In some situations the menu and scrollbar didn't work, when the value contains
|
|
|
1831 a CSI byte. (Yukihiro Nakadaira)

|
1833 GTK GUI: When drawing the balloon focus changes and we might get a key release
|
|
|
1834 event that removed the balloon again. Ignore the key release event.
|
|
|
1835
|
|
|
1836 'titleold' was included in ":mkexrc" and ":mksession" files.
|
|
|
1837
|
|
671
|
1838 ":set background&" didn't use the same logic as was used when starting up.
|
|
|
1839

|
1840 When "umask" is set such that nothing is writable then the viminfo file would
|
|
|
1841 be written without write permission. (Julian Bridle)
|
|
|
1842
|
|
674
|
1843 Motif: In diff mode dragging one scrollbar didn't update the scrollbar of the
|
|
|
1844 other diff'ed window.
|
|
|
1845
|
|
680
|
1846 When editing in an xterm with a different number of colors than expected the
|
|
|
1847 screen would be cleared and redrawn, causing the message about the edited file
|
|
|
1848 to be cleared. Now set "keep_msg" to redraw the last message.
|
|
|
1849
|
|
681
|
1850 For a color terminal: When the Normal HL uses bold, possibly to make the color
|
|
|
1851 lighter, and another HL group specifies a color it might become light as well.
|
|
|
1852 Now reset bold if a HL group doesn't specify bold itself.
|
|
|
1853
|
|
685
|
1854 When using 256 color xterm the color 255 would show up as color 0. Use a
|
|
|
1855 short instead of a char to store the color number.
|
|
|
1856
|
|
|
1857 ml_get errors when searching for "\n\zs" in an empty file.
|
|
|
1858
|
|
689
|
1859 When selecting a block and using "$" to select until the end of every line and
|
|
|
1860 not highlighting the character under the cursor the first character of the
|
|
|
1861 block could be unhighlighted.
|
|
|
1862
|
|
|
1863 When counting words for the Visual block area and using "$" to select until
|
|
|
1864 the end of every line only up to the length of the last line was counted.
|
|
|
1865
|
|
693
|
1866 "dip" in trailing empty lines left one empty line behind.
|
|
|
1867

|

|
1868 The script ID was only remembered globally for each option. When a buffer- or
|
|
|
1869 window-local option was set the same "last set" location was changed for all
|
|
|
1870 buffers and windows. Now remember the script ID for each local option
|
|
|
1871 separately.
|
|
|
1872
|
|
|
1873 GUI: The "Replace All" button didn't handle backslashes in the replacement in
|
|
|
1874 the same way as "Replace". Escape backslashes so that they are taken
|
|
|
1875 literally.
|
|
|
1876
|
|
697
|
1877 When using Select mode from Insert mode and typing a key, causing lines to be
|
|
|
1878 deleted and a message displayed, delayed the effect of inserting the key.
|
|
|
1879 Now overwrite the message without delay.
|

|
1881 When 'whichwrap' includes "l" then "dl" and "yl" on a single letter line
|
|
|
1882 worked differently. Now recognize all operators when using "l" at the end of
|
|
|
1883 a line.
|
|
|
1884
|
|
|
1885 GTK GUI: when the font selector returned a font name with a comma in it then
|
|
|
1886 it would be handled like two font names. Now put a backslash before the
|
|
|
1887 comma.
|
|
|
1888
|
|
|
1889 MS-DOS, Win32: When 'encoding' defaults to "latin1" then the value for
|
|
|
1890 'iskeyword' was still for CPxxx. And when 'nocompatible' was set 'isprint'
|
|
|
1891 would also be the wrong value.
|
|
|
1892
|
|
716
|
1893 When a command was defined not to take arguments and no '|' no warning message
|
|
|
1894 would be given for using a '|'. Also with ":loadkeymap".
|
|
|
1895
|
|
717
|
1896 Motif: When using a fontset and 'encoding' is "utf-8" and sizeof(wchar_t) !=
|
|
|
1897 sizeof(XChar2b) then display was wrong. (Yukihiro Nakadaira)
|
|
|
1898
|
|
734
|
1899 ":all" always set the current window to the first window, even when it
|
|
|
1900 contains a buffer that is not in the argument list (can't be closed because it
|
|
|
1901 is modified). Now go to the window that has the first item of the argument
|
|
|
1902 list.
