patch 8.0.0761: options not set properly for a terminal buffer commit https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/1f2903c43109b16594d141a730659317b15f388d Author: Bram Moolenaar <Bram@vim.org> Date: Sun Jul 23 19:51:01 2017 +0200 patch 8.0.0761: options not set properly for a terminal buffer Problem: Options of a buffer for a terminal window are not set properly. Solution: Add "terminal" value for 'buftype'. Make 'buftype' and 'bufhidden' not depend on the quickfix feature. Also set the buffer name and show "running" or "finished" in the window title.
