35 INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES *incompatible-7*
|
|
|
36
|
|
|
37 These changes are incompatible with previous releases. Check this list if you
|
|
141
|
38 run into a problem when upgrading from Vim 6.x to 7.0.
|
|
|
39
|
|
|
40 A ":write file" command no longer resets the 'modified' flag of the buffer,
|
|
|
41 unless the '+' flag is in 'cpoptions' |cpo-+|. This was illogical, since the
|
|
|
42 buffer is still modified compared to the original file. And when undoing
|
|
|
43 all changes the file would actually be marked modified. It does mean that
|
|
|
44 ":quit" fails now.
|
|
7
|
45
|
|
10
|
46 ":helpgrep" now uses a help window to display a match.
|
|
|
47
|
|
39
|
48 In an argument list double quotes could be used to include spaces in a file
|
|
|
49 name. This caused a difference between ":edit" and ":next" for escaping
|
|
|
50 double quotes and it is incompatible with some versions of Vi.
|
|
|
51 Command Vim 6.x file name Vim 7.x file name ~
|
|
|
52 :edit foo\"888 'foo"888' 'foo"888'
|
|
|
53 :next foo\"888 'foo888' 'foo"888'
|
|
|
54 :next a\"b c\"d 'ab cd' 'a"b' and 'c"d'
|
|
|
55
|
|
100
|
56 In a |literal-string| a single quote can be doubled to get one.
|
|
|
57 ":echo 'a''b'" would result in "a b", but now that two quotes stand for one it
|
|
|
58 results in "a'b".
|
|
|
59
|
|
10
|
60
|
|
|
61 Minor incompatibilities:
|
|
|
62
|
|
|
63 For filetype detection: For many types, instead of ~/.dir/filename use
|
|
|
64 */.dir/filename, so that it also works for other user's files.
|
|
|
65
|
|
|
66 ":0verbose" now sets 'verbose' to zero instead of one.
|
|
|
67
|
|
|
68 Removed the old and incomplete "VimBuddy" code.
|
|
|
69
|
|
|
70 Buffers without a name report "No Name" instead of "No File". It was
|
|
|
71 confusing for buffers with a name and 'buftype' set to "nofile".
|
|
7
|
72
|
|
29
|
73 When ":file xxx" is used in a buffer without a name, the alternate file name
|
|
|
74 isn't set. This avoids creating buffers without a name that are not useful.
|
|
|
75
|
|
|
76 The "2html.vim" script now converts closed folds to HTML. This means the HTML
|
|
|
77 looks like its displayed, with the same folds open and closed. Use "zR" if no
|
|
|
78 folds should appear in the HTML. (partly by Carl Osterwisch)
|
|
32
|
79 Diff mode now is also converted as it is displayed.
|
|
29
|
80
|
|
36
|
81 Win32: The effect of the <F10> key depended on 'winaltkeys'. Now it depends
|
|
|
82 on whether <F10> has been mapped or not. This allows mapping <F10> without
|
|
|
83 changing 'winaltkeys'.
|
|
|
84
|
|
100
|
85 When 'octal' is in 'nrformats' and using CTRL-A on "08" it became "018", which
|
|
|
86 is illogical. Now it becomes "9". The leading zero(s) is(are) removed to
|
|
|
87 avoid the number becoming octal after incrementing "009" to "010".
|
|
39
|
88
|
|
|
89 When 'encoding' is set to a Unicode encoding, the value for 'fileencodings'
|
|
|
90 now includes "default" before "latin1". This means that for files with 8-bit
|
|
|
91 encodings the default is to use the encoding specified by the environment, if
|
|
|
92 possible. Previously latin1 would always be used, which is wrong in a
|
|
|
93 non-latin1 environment, such as Russian.
|
|
|
94
|
|
149
|
95 Previously Vim would exit when there are two windows, both of them displaying
|
|
|
96 a help file, and using ":quit". Now only the window is closed.
|
|
|
97
|
|
164
|
98 "-w {scriptout}" only works when {scriptout} doesn't start with a digit.
|
|
|
99 Otherwise it's used to set the 'window' option.

102 NEW FEATURES *new-7*
|
|
|
103
|
|
116
|
104 Vim script enhancements *new-vim-script*
|
|
|
105 -----------------------
|
|
7
|
106
|
|
|
107 In Vim scripts the following types have been added:
|
|
|
108
|
|
97
|
109 List ordered list of items |List|
|
|
|
110 Dictionary associative array of items |Dictionary|
|
|
|
111 Funcref reference to a function |Funcref|
|
|
7
|
112
|
|
|
113 Many functions and commands have been added to support the new types.
|
|
|
114
|
|
97
|
115 The |string()| function can be used to get a string representation of a
|
|
|
116 variable. Works for Numbers, Strings and composites of them. Then |eval()|
|
|
|
117 can be used to turn the string back into the variable value.
|
|
|
118
|
|
116
|
119 The |:let| command can now use ":let var += expr" like using ":let var = var +
|
|
|
120 expr". "-=" and ".=" works in a similar way.
|
|
|
121
|
|
175
|
122 With the |:profile| command you can find out where your function or script
|
|
|
123 wastes its time.
|
|
|
124
|
|
11
|
125
|
|
14
|
126 KDE support *new-KDE*
|
|
11
|
127 -----------
|
|
|
128
|
|
|
129 Kvim is the KDE version of Vim. It uses the Qt toolkit. See |KVim|.

|
133 MzScheme interface *new-MzScheme*
|
|
|
134 ------------------
|
|
|
135
|
|
|
136 The MzScheme interpreter is supported. |MzScheme|
|
|
|
137 The |:mzscheme| command can be used to execute MzScheme commands.
|
|
|
138 The |:mzfile| command can be used to execute an MzScheme script file.
|
|
|
139
|
|
97
|
140
|
|
15
|
141 Printing multi-byte text *new-print-multi-byte*
|
|
|
142 ------------------
|
|
|
143
|
|
|
144 The |:hardcopy| command now supports printing multi-byte characters.
|
|
|
145 The 'printmbcharset' and 'printmbfont' options are used for this.
|
|
|
146 Also see |postscript-cjk-printing|. (Mike Williams)
|
|
|
147
|
|
14
|
148
|
|
36
|
149 Translated manual pages *new-manpage-trans*
|
|
|
150 -----------------------
|
|
|
151
|
|
|
152 The manual page of Vim and associated programs is now also available in
|
|
|
153 Italian (translated by Antonio Colombo). More languages will follow.
|
|
|
154
|
|
40
|
155 The Unix Makefile installs the Italian manual pages in .../man/it/man1/.
|
|
|
156
|
|
36
|
157
|
|
43
|
158 Internal grep *new-vimgrep*
|
|
|
159 -------------
|
|
|
160
|
|
|
161 The ":vimgrep" command can be used to search for a pattern in a list of files.
|
|
|
162 This is like the ":grep" command, but no external program is used. Besides
|
|
|
163 better portability, handling of different file encodings and using multi-line
|
|
|
164 patterns, this also allows grepping in compressed and remote files.
|
|
|
165 |:vimgrep|.
|
|
|
166
|
|
170
|
167 If you want to use the search results in a script you can use the
|
|
|
168 |errorlist()| function.
|
|
|
169
|
|
43
|
170
|
|
164
|
171 POSIX compatibility *new-posix*
|
|
|
172 -------------------
|
|
|
173
|
|
|
174 The POSIX test suite was used to verify POSIX compatibility. A number of
|
|
|
175 problems have been fixed to make Vim more POSIX compatible. Some of them
|
|
|
176 conflict with traditional Vi or expected behavior. The $VIM_POSIX environment
|
|
|
177 variable can be set to get POSIX compatibility. See |posix|.
|
|
|
178
|
|
|
179 Items that were fixed for both Vi and POSIX compatibilty:
|
|
|
180 - repeating "R" with a count only overwrites text once; added the 'X' flag to
|
|
|
181 'cpoptions' |cpo-X|
|
|
|
182 - a vertical movement command that moves to a non-existing line fails; added
|
|
|
183 the '-' flag to 'cpoptions' |cpo--|
|
|
|
184 - when preserving a file and doing ":q!" the file can be recovered; added the
|
|
|
185 '&' flag to 'cpoptions' |cpo-&|
|
|
|
186 - The 'window' option is partly implemented. It specifies how much CTRL-F and
|
|
|
187 CTRL-B scroll when there is one window. The "-w {number}" argument is now
|
|
|
188 accepted. "-w {scriptout}" only works when {scriptout} doesn't start with a
|
|
|
189 digit.
|
|
|
190 - Allow "-c{command}" argument, no space between "-c" and {command}.
|
|
|
191 - When writing a file with ":w!" don't reset 'readonly' when 'Z' is present in
|
|
|
192 'cpoptions'.
|
|
169
|
193 - Allow 'l' and '#' flags for ":list", ":print" and ":number".
|
|
|
194 - Added the '.' flag to 'cpoptions': ":cd" fails when the buffer is modified.
|
|
|
195 - In Ex mode with an empty buffer ":read file" doesn't keep an empty line
|
|
|
196 above or below the new lines.
|
|
|
197 - Remove a backslash before a NL for the ":global" command.
|
|
|
198 - When ":append", ":insert" or ":change" is used with ":global", get the
|
|
|
199 inserted lines from the command. Can use backslash-NL to separate lines.
|
|
|
200 - Can use ":global /pat/ visual" to execute Normal mode commands at each
|
|
|
201 matched line. Use "Q" to continue and go to the next line.
|
|
|
202 - The |:open| command has been partially implemented. It stops Ex mode, but
|
|
|
203 redraws the whole screen, not just one line as open mode is supposed to do.
|
|
|
204 - Support using a pipe to read the output from and write input to an external
|
|
|
205 command. Added the 'shelltemp' option and has("filterpipe").
|
|
|
206 - In ex silent mode the ":set" command output is displayed.
|
|
|
207 - The ":@@" and ":**" give an error message when no register was used before.
|
|
|
208 - The search pattern "[]-`]" matches ']', '^', '_' and '`'.
|
|
|
209 - Autoindent for ":insert" is using the line below the insert.
|
|
|
210 - Autoindent for ":change" is using the first changed line.
|
|
|
211 - Editing Ex command lines is not done in cooked mode, because CTRL-D and
|
|
|
212 CTRL-T cannot be handled then.
|
|
|
213 - In Ex mode, "1,3" prints three lines.
|
|
|
214 - Implemented the 'prompt' option.
|
|

|
|
|
386 character selections can be used between two Vims. (Eckehard Berns)
|
|

|
399
|
|
38
|
400 Mac: better integration with Xcode. Post a fake mouse-up event after the odoc
|
|
|
401 event and the drag receive handler to work around a stall after Vim loads a
|
|
|
402 file. Fixed an off-by-one line number error. (Da Woon Jung)
|
|
|
403
|
|

|
404 The netrw plugin now also supports viewing a directory, when "scp://" is used.
|
|
|
405 Deleting and renaming files is possible. (Charles Campbell)
|
|
|
406
|
|
36
|
407 Added the t_SI and t_EI escape sequences for starting and ending Insert mode.
|
|
|
408 To be used to set the cursor shape to a bar or a block. No default values,
|
|
|
409 they are not supported by termcap/terminfo.
|
|
|
410
|
|
40
|
411 Autocommands can be defined local to a buffer. This means they will also work
|
|

419 IMPROVEMENTS *improvements-7*
|
|
|
420
|
|
10
|
421 ":helpgrep" accepts a language specifier after the pattern: "pat@it".
|
|
|
422
|
|
15
|
423 Move the help for printing to a separate help file. It's quite a lot now.
|
|
|
424
|
|
10
|
425 ":breakadd here" and ":breakdel here" can be used to set or delete a
|
|
|
426 breakpoint at the cursor.
|
|
|
427
|
|
11
|
428 The tutor was updated to make it simpler to use and added text to explain a
|
|
|
429 few more important commands. Used ideas from Gabriel Zachmann.
|
|
7
|
430
|
|
12
|
431 Unix: When libcall() fails obtain an error message with dlerror() and display
|
|
|
432 it. (Johannes Zellner)
|
|
|
433
|
|
13
|
434 Added "nbsp" in 'listchars'. (David Blanchet)
|
|
|
435
|
|
17
|
436 Added the "acwrite" value for the 'buftype' option. This is for a buffer that
|
|
|
437 doesn not have a name that refers to a file and is written with BufWriteCmd
|
|
|
438 autocommands.
|
|
|
439
|
|
14
|
440 For lisp indenting and matching parenthesis: (Sergey Khorev)
|
|
|
441 - square brackets are recognized properly
|
|
|
442 - #\(, #\), #\[ and #\] are recognized as character literals
|
|
|
443 - Lisp line comments (delimited by semicolon) are recognized
|
|
|
444
|
|
19
|
445 Added the "count" argument to match(), matchend() and matchstr(). (Ilya Sher)
|
|
|
446
|
|
20
|
447 winnr() takes an optional "$" and "#" arguments. (Nikolai Weibull, Yegappan
|
|
|
448 Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
449
|
|
|
450 Added 'n' flag to search(): don't move the cursor. (Nikolai Weibull)
|
|
|
451
|
|
22
|
452 When uncompressing fails in the gzip plugin, give an error message but don't
|
|
|
453 delete the raw text. Helps if the file has a .gz extension but is not
|
|
|
454 actually compressed. (Andrew Pimlott)
|
|
|
455
|
|
|
456 When C, C++ or IDL syntax is used, may additionally load doxygen syntax.
|
|
|
457 Also support setting the filetype to "cdoxygen" for C plus doxygen syntax.
|
|
|
458 (Michael Geddes)
|
|
|
459
|
|
|
460 The ":registers" command now displays multi-byte characters properly.
|
|
|
461
|
|
|
462 VMS: In the usage message mention that a slash can be used to make a flag
|
|
|
463 upper case. Add color support to the builtin vt320 terminal codes.
|
|
|
464 (Zoltan Arpadffy)
|
|
|
465
|
|
23
|
466 For the '%' item in 'viminfo', allow a number to set a maximum for the number
|
|
|
467 of buffers.
|
|
|
468
|
|
40
|
469 The 'statusline' option can be local to the window, so that each window can
|
|
|
470 have a different value. (partly by Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
471
|
|
26
|
472 When a file looks like a shell script, check for an "exec" command that starts
|
|
|
473 the tcl interpreter. (suggested by Alexios Zavras)
|
|
|
474
|
|
|
475 Support conversion between utf-8 and latin9 (iso-8859-15) internally, so that
|
|
|
476 digraphs still work when iconv is not available.
|
|
|
477
|
|
36
|
478 When a session file is loaded while editing an unnamed, empty buffer that
|
|
|
479 buffer is wiped out. Avoids that there is an unused buffer in the buffer
|
|
|
480 list.
|
|
|
481
|
|
|
482 Win32: When libintl.dll supports bind_textdomain_codeset(), use it.
|
|
|
483 (NAKADAIRA Yukihiro)
|
|
|
484
|
|
|
485 When foldtext() finds no text after removing the comment leader, use the
|
|
|
486 second line of the fold. Helps for C-style /* */ comments where the first
|
|
|
487 line is just "/*".
|
|
|
488
|
|
39
|
489 When editing the same file from two systems (e.g., Unix and MS-Windows) there
|
|
|
490 mostly was no warning for an existing swap file, because the name of the
|
|
|
491 edited file differs (e.g., y:\dir\file vs /home/me/dir/file). Added a flag to
|
|
|
492 the swap file to indicate it is in the same directory as the edited file. The
|
|
|
493 used path then doesn't matter and the check for editing the same file is much
|
|
|
494 more reliable.
|
|
|
495
|
|
|
496 Client-server communication now supports 'encoding'. When setting 'encoding'
|
|
|
497 in a Vim server to "utf-8", and using "vim --remote fname" in a console,
|
|
|
498 "fname" is converted from the console encoding to utf-8. Also allows Vims
|
|
|
499 with different 'encoding' settings to exchange messages.
|
|
|
500
|
|
41
|
501 Internal: Changed ga_room into ga_maxlen, so that it doesn't need to be
|
|
|
502 incremented/decremented each time.
|
|
|
503
|
|
69
|
504 Included a few improvements for Motif from Marcin Dalecki. Draw label
|
|
46
|
505 contents ourselves to make them handle fonts in a way configurable by Vim and
|
|
|
506 a bit less dependent on the X11 font management.
|
|
|
507
|
|
56
|
508 When a register is empty it is not stored in the viminfo file.
|
|
|
509
|
|
100
|
510 Removed the tcltags script, it's obsolete.
|
|
|
511
|
|
123
|
512 ":redir @*>" and ":redir @+>" append to the clipboard. Better check for
|
|
169
|
513 invalid characters after the register name. |:redir|
|
|
|
514
|
|
|
515 ":redir => variable" and ":redir =>> variable" write or append to a variable.
|
|
|
516 (Yegappan Lakshmanan) |:redir|
|
|
123
|
517
|
|
|
518 ":let g:" lists global variables.
|
|
|
519 ":let b:" lists buffer-local variables.
|
|
|
520 ":let w:" lists window-local variables.
|
|
|
521 ":let v:" lists Vim variables.
|
|
|
522
|
|
149
|
523 The stridx() and strridx() functions take a third argument, where to start
|
|
|
524 searching. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
|
|
136
|
525
|
|
162
|
526 g CTRL-G also shows the number of characters if it differs from the number of
|
|
|
527 bytes.
|
|
|
528
|
|
169
|
529 Completion for ":debug" and entering an expression for the '=' register. Skip
|
|
|
530 ":" between range and command name. (Peter winters)
|
|
|
531
|
|
|
532 CTRL-Q in Insert mode now works like CTRL-V by default. Previously it was
|
|
|
533 ignored.
|
|
|
534
|
|
|
535 When "beep" is included in 'debug' a function or script that causes a beep
|
|
|
536 will result in a message with the source of the error.
|
|
|
537
|
|
170
|
538 When completing buffer names, match with "\(^\|[\/]\)" instead of "^", so that
|
|
|
539 ":buf stor<Tab>" finds both "include/storage.h" and "storage/main.c".
|
|
|
540
|
|
|
541 To count items (pattern matches) without changing the buffer the 'n' flag has
|
|
|
542 been added to |:substitute|. See |count-items|.
|
|
|
543
|
|
175
|
544 The "screen.linux" $TERM name is recognized to set the default for
|
|
179
|
545 'background' to "dark". (Ciaran McCreesh) Also for "cygwin".
|
|
|
546
|
|
|
547 The |FileChangedShell| autocommand event can now use the |v:fcs_reason|
|
|
|
548 variable that specifies what triggered the event. |v:fcs_choice| can be used
|
|
|
549 to reload the buffer or ask the user what to do.

552 COMPILE TIME CHANGES *compile-changes-7*
|
|
|
553
|
|
69
|
554 Dropped the support for the BeOS and Amiga GUI. They were not maintained and
|
|
|
555 probably didn't work. If you want to work on this: get the Vim 6.x version
|
|
|
556 and merge it back in.
|
|
|
557
|
|
18
|
558 Mac: "make" now creates the Vim.app directory and "make install" copies it to
|
|
|
559 its final destination. (Raf)
|
|
|
560
|
|
|
561 Mac: Made it possible to compile with Motif, Athena or GTK without tricks and
|
|
|
562 still being able to use the MacRoman conversion. Added the os_mac_conv.c
|
|
|
563 file.
|
|
7
|
564
|
|
169
|
565 When running the tests and one of them fails to produce "test.out" the
|
|
|
566 following tests are still executed. This helps when running out of memory.

|
569 BUG FIXES *bug-fixes-7*
|
|
|
570
|
|
10
|
571 When using PostScript printing on MS-DOS the default 'printexpr' used "lpr"
|
|
|
572 instead of "copy". When 'printdevice' was empty the copy command did not
|
|
|
573 work. Use "LPT1" then.
|
|
|
574
|
|
|
575 The GTK font dialog uses a font size zero when the font name doesn't include a
|
|
|
576 size. Use a default size of 10.
|
|
|
577
|
|
|
578 This example in the documentation didn't work:
|
|
|
579 :e `=foo . ".c" `
|
|
|
580 Skip over the expression in `=expr` when looking for comments, |, % and #.
|
|
|
581
|
|
|
582 When ":helpgrep" doesn't find anything there is no error message.
|
|
|
583
|
|
|
584 "L" and "H" did not take closed folds into account.
|
|
|
585
|
|
|
586 Win32: The "-P title" argument stopped at the first title that matched, even
|
|
|
587 when it doesn't support MDI.
|
|
|
588
|
|
|
589 Mac GUI: CTRL-^ and CTRL-@ did not work.
|
|
|
590
|
|
|
591 "2daw" on "word." at the end of a line didn't include the preceding white
|
|
|
592 space.
|
|
|
593
|
|
|
594 Win32: Using FindExecutable() doesn't work to find a program. Use
|
|
|
595 SearchPath() instead. For executable() use $PATHEXT when the program searched
|
|
|
596 for doesn't have an extension.
|
|
|
597
|
|
|
598 When 'virtualedit' is set, moving the cursor up after appending a character
|
|
|
599 may move it to a different column. Was caused by auto-formatting moving the
|
|
|
600 cursor and not putting it back where it was.
|
|
|
601
|
|
|
602 When indent was added automatically and then moving the cursor, the indent was
|
|
|
603 not deleted (like when pressing ESC). The "I" flag in 'cpoptions' can be used
|
|
|
604 to make it work the old way.
|
|
|
605
|
|
|
606 When opening a command-line window, 'textwidth' gets set to 78 by the Vim
|
|
|
607 filetype plugin. Reset 'textwidth' to 0 to avoid lines are broken.
|
|
|
608
|
|
|
609 After using cursor(line, col) moving up/down doesn't keep the same column.
|
|
|
610
|
|
|
611 Win32: Borland C before 5.5 requires using ".u." for LowPart and HighPart
|
|
|
612 fields. (Walter Briscoe)
|
|
7
|
613
|
|
11
|
614 On Sinix SYS_NMLN isn't always defined. Define it ourselves. (Cristiano De
|
|
|
615 Michele)
|
|
|
616
|
|
14
|
617 Printing with PostScript may keep the printer waiting for more. Append a
|
|
|
618 CTRL-D to the printer output. (Mike Williams)
|
|
|
619
|
|
16
|
620 When converting a string with a hex or octal number the leading '-' was
|
|
|
621 ignored. ":echo '-05' + 0" resulted in 5 instead of -5.
|
|
|
622
|
|
|
623 Using "@:" to repeat a command line didn't work when it contains control
|
|
|
624 characters.
|
|
|
625
|
|
17
|
626 When using file completion for a user command, it would not expand environment
|
|
|
627 variables like for a regular command with a file argument.
|
|
|
628
|
|
|
629 'cindent': When the argument of a #define looks like a C++ class the next line
|
|
|
630 is indented too much.
|
|
|
631
|
|
|
632 When 'comments' includes multi-byte characters inserting the middle part and
|
|
|
633 alignment may go wrong. 'cindent' also suffers from this for right-aligned
|

636 Win32: when 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" getenv() still returns strings in the
|
|
|
637 active codepage. Convert to utf-8. Also for $HOME.
|
|
|
638
|
|
18
|
639 The default for 'helplang' was "zh" for both "zh_cn" and "zh_tw". Now use
|
|
|
640 "cn" or "tw" as intended.
|
|
|
641
|
|
20
|
642 When 'bin' is set and 'eol' is not set then line2byte() added the line break
|
|
|
643 after the last line while it's not there.
|
|
|
644
|
|
|
645 Using foldlevel() in a WinEnter autocommand may not work. Noticed when
|
|
|
646 resizing the GUI shell upon startup.
|
|
|
647
|
|
|
648 Python: Using buffer.append(f.readlines()) didn't work. Allow appending a
|
|
|
649 string with a trailing newline. The newline is ignored.
|
|
|
650
|
|
21
|
651 When using the ":saveas f2" command for buffer "f1", the Buffers menu would
|
|
|
652 contain "f2" twice, one of them leading to "f1". Also trigger the BufFilePre
|
|
|
653 and BufFilePost events for the alternate buffer that gets the old name.
|
|
|
654
|
|
22
|
655 strridx() did not work well when the needle is empty. (Ciaran McCreesh)
|
|
|
656
|
|
|
657 GTK: Avoid a potential hang in gui_mch_wait_for_chars() when input arrives
|
|
|
658 just before it is invoked
|
|
|
659
|
|
|
660 VMS: Occasionally CR characters were inserted in the file. Expansion of
|
|
|
661 environment variables was not correct. (Zoltan Arpadffy)
|
|
|
662
|
|
|
663 UTF-8: When 'delcombine' is set "dw" only deleted the last combining character
|
|
|
664 from the first character of the word.
|
|
|
665
|
|
|
666 When using ":sball" in an autocommand only the filetype in one buffer was
|
|
|
667 detected. Reset did_filetype in enter_buffer().
|
|
|
668
|
|
|
669 When using ":argdo" and the window already was at the first argument index,
|
|
|
670 but not actually editing it, the current buffer would be used instead.
|
|
|
671
|
|
23
|
672 When ":next dir/*" includes many matches, adding the names to the argument
|
|
|
673 list may take an awful lot of time and can't be interrupted. Allow
|
|
|
674 interrupting this.
|
|
|
675
|
|
|
676 When editing a file that was already loaded in a buffer, modelines were not
|
|
|
677 used. Now window-local options in the modeline are set. Buffer-local options
|
|
|
678 and global options remain unmodified.
|
|
|
679
|
|
|
680 Win32: When 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" in the vimrc file, files from the
|
|
|
681 command line with non-ASCII characters are not used correctly. Recode the
|
|
|
682 file names when 'encoding' is set, using the Unicode command line.
|
|
|
683
|
|
24
|
684 Win32 console: When the default for 'encoding' ends up to be "latin1", the
|
|
|
685 default value of 'isprint' was wrong.
|
|
|
686
|
|
|
687 When an error message is given while waiting for a character (e.g., when an
|
|
|
688 xterm reports the number of colors), the hit-enter prompt overwrote the last
|
|
|
689 line. Don't reset msg_didout in normal_cmd() for K_IGNORE.
|
|
|
690
|
|
26
|
691 Mac GUI: Shift-Tab didn't work.
|
|
|
692
|
|
|
693 When defining tooltip text, don't translate terminal codes, since it's not
|
|
|
694 going to be used like a command.
|
|
|
695
|
|
|
696 GTK 2: Check the tooltip text for valid utf-8 characters to avoid getting a
|
|
|
697 GTK error. Invalid characters may appear when 'encoding' is changed.
|
|
|
698
|
|
|
699 GTK 2: Add a safety check for invalid utf-8 sequences, they can crash pango.
|
|
|
700
|
|
|
701 Win32: When 'encoding' is changed while starting up, use the Unicode command
|
|
|
702 line to convert the file arguments to 'encoding'. Both for the GUI and the
|
|
|
703 console version.
|
|
|
704
|
|
|
705 Win32 GUI: latin9 text (iso-8859-15) was not displayed correctly, because
|
|
|
706 there is no codepage for latin9. Do our own conversion from latin9 to UCS2.
|
|
|
707
|
|
29
|
708 When two versions of GTK+ 2 are installed it was possible to use the header
|
|
|
709 files from one and the library from the other. Use GTK_LIBDIR to put the
|
|
|
710 directory for the library early in the link flags.
|
|
|
711
|
|
|
712 With the GUI find/replace dialog a replace only worked if the pattern was
|
|
|
713 literal text. Now it works for any pattern.
|
|
|
714
|
|
36
|
715 When 'equalalways' is set and 'eadirection' is "hor", ":quit" would still
|
|
|
716 cause equalizing window heights in the vertical direction.
|
|
|
717
|
|
|
718 When ":emenu" is used in a startup script the command was put in the typeahead
|
|
|
719 buffer, causing a prompt for the crypt key to be messed up.
|
|
|
720
|
|
|
721 Mac OS/X: The default for 'isprint' included characters 128-160, causes
|
|
|
722 problems for Terminal.app.
|
|
|
723
|
|
|
724 When a syntax item with "containedin" is used, it may match in the start or
|
|
|
725 end of a region with a matchgroup, while this doesn't happen for a "contains"
|
|
|
726 argument.
|
|
|
727
|
|
|
728 When a transparent syntax items matches in another item where the highlighting
|
|
|
729 has already stopped (because of a he= argument), the highlighting would come
|
|
|
730 back.
|
|
|
731
|
|
|
732 When cscope is used to set the quickfix error list, it didn't get set if there
|
|
|
733 was only one match. (Sergey Khorev)
|
|
|
734
|
|
|
735 When 'confirm' is set and using ":bdel" in a modified buffer, then selecting
|
|
|
736 "cancel", would still give an error message.
|
|
|
737
|
|
|
738 The PopUp menu items that started Visual mode didn't work when not in Normal
|
|
|
739 mode. Switching between selecting a word and a line was not possible.
|
|
|
740
|
|
|
741 Win32: The keypad decimal point always resulted in a '.', while on some
|
|
|
742 keyboards it's a ','. Use MapVirtualKey(VK_DECIMAL, 2).
|
|
|
743
|
|
|
744 Removed unused function DisplayCompStringOpaque() from gui_w32.c
|
|
|
745
|
|
|
746 In Visual mode there is not always an indication whether the line break is
|
|
|
747 selected or not. Highlight the character after the line when the line break
|
|
|
748 is included, e.g., after "v$o".
|
|
|
749
|
|
|
750 GTK: The <F10> key can't be mapped, it selects the menu. Disable that with a
|
|
|
751 GTK setting and do select the menu when <F10> isn't mapped. (David Necas)
|
|
|
752
|
|
|
753 After "Y" '[ and '] were not at start/end of the yanked text.
|
|
|
754
|
|
|
755 When a telnet connection is dropped Vim preserves files and exits. While
|
|
|
756 doing that a SIGHUP may arrive and disturbe us, thus ignore it. (Scott
|
|
38
|
757 Anderson) Also postpone SIGHUP, SIGQUIT and SIGTERM until it's safe to
|
|
|
758 handle. Added handle_signal().
|
|
|
759
|
|
|
760 When using "set laststatus=2 cmdheight=2" in the .gvimrc you may only get one
|
|
|
761 line for the cmdline. (Christian Robinson) Invoke command_height() after the
|
|
|
762 GUI has started up.
|
|
36
|
763
|
|
39
|
764 When completing a file name on the command line backslashes are required for
|
|
|
765 white space. Was only done for a space, not for a Tab.
|
|
|
766
|
|
|
767 When configure could not find a terminal library, compiling continued for a
|
|
|
768 long time before reporting the problem. Added a configure check for tgetent()
|
|
|
769 being found in a library.
|
|
|
770
|
|
|
771 When the cursor is on the first char of the last line a ":g/pat/s///" command
|
|
|
772 may cause the cursor to be displayed below the text.
|
|
|
773
|
|
|
774 Win32: Editing a file with non-ASCII characters doesn't work when 'encoding'
|
|
|
775 is "utf-8". use _wfullpath() instead of _fullpath(). (Yu-sung Moon)
|
|
|
776
|
|
|
777 When recovering the 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' were taken from the
|
|
|
778 original file instead of from the swapfile. When the file didn't exist, was
|
|
|
779 empty or the option was changed (e.g., with ":e ++fenc=cp123 file") it could
|
|
|
780 be wrong. Now store 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' in the swapfile and use
|
|
|
781 the values when recovering.
|
|
|
782
|
|
|
783 ":bufdo g/something/p" overwrites each last printed text line with the file
|
|
|
784 message for the next buffer. Temporarily clear 'shortmess' to avoid that.
|
|
|
785
|
|
40
|
786 Win32: Cannot edit a file starting with # with --remote. Do escape % and #
|
|
|
787 when building the ":drop" command.
|
|
|
788
|
|
41
|
789 A comment or | just after a expresion-backtick argument was not recognized.
|
|
|
790 E.g. in :e `="foo"`"comment.
|
|
|
791
|
|
46
|
792 "(" does not stop at an empty sentence (single dot and white space) while ")"
|
|
|
793 does. Also breaks "das" on that dot.
|
|
|
794
|
|
|
795 When doing "yy" with the cursor on a TAB the ruler could be wrong and "k"
|
|
|
796 moved the cursor to another column.
|
|
|
797
|
|
|
798 When 'commentstring' is '"%s' and there is a double quote in the line a double
|
|
|
799 quote before the fold marker isn't removed in the text displayed for a closed
|
|
|
800 fold.
|
|
|
801
|
|
|
802 In Visual mode, when 'bin' and 'eol' set, g CTRL-G counted the last line
|
|
|
803 break, resulting in "selected 202 of 201 bytes".
|
|
|
804
|
|
69
|
805 Motif: fonts were not used for dialog components. (Marcin Dalecki)
|
|
46
|
806
|
|
56
|
807 Motif: After using a toolbar button the keyboard focus would be on the toolbar
|
|
69
|
808 (Lesstif problem). (Marcin Dalecki)
|
|
56
|
809
|
|
51
|
810 When using "y<C-V>`x" where mark x is in the first column, the last line was
|
|
|
811 not included.
|
|
|
812
|
|
|
813 Not all test scripts work properly on MS-Windows when checked out from CVS.
|
|
|
814 Use a Vim command to fix all fileformats to dos before executing the tests.
|
|
|
815
|
|
|
816 When using ":new" and the file fits in the window, lines could still be above
|
|
|
817 the window. Now remove empty lines instead of keeping the relative position.
|
|
|
818
|
|
76
|
819 Cmdline completion didn't work after ":let var1 var<Tab>".
|
|
|
820
|
|
91
|
821 When using ":startinsert" or ":startreplace" when already in Insert mode
|
|
|
822 (possible when using CTRL-R =), pressing Esc would directly restart Insert
|
|
|
823 mode. (Peter Winters)
|
|
|
824
|
|
97
|
825 "2daw" didn't work at end of file if the last word is a single character.
|
|
|
826
|
|
100
|
827 Completion for ":next a'<Tab>" put a backslash before single quote, but it was
|
|
|
828 not removed when editing a file. Now halve backslashes in save_patterns().
|
|
109
|
829 Also fix expanding a file name with the shell that contains "\'".
|
|
100
|
830
|
|
136
|
831 When doing "1,6d|put" only "fewer lines" was reported. Now a following "more
|
|
|
832 lines" overwrites the message.
|
|
|
833
|
|
|
834 Configure could not handle "-Dfoo=long\ long" in the TCL config output.
|
|
|
835
|
|
141
|
836 When searching backwards, using a pattern that matches a newline and uses \zs
|
|
|
837 after that, didn't find a match. Could also get a hang or end up in the right
|
|
|
838 column in the wrong line.
|
|
|
839
|
|
149
|
840 When $LANG is "sl" for slovenian, the slovak menu was used, since "slovak"
|
|
|
841 starts with "sl".
|
|
|
842
|
|
|
843 When 'paste' is set in the GUI the Paste toolbar button doesn't work. Clear
|
|
|
844 'paste' when starting the GUI.
|
|
|
845
|
|
155
|
846 A message about a wrong viminfo line included the trailing NL.
|
|
|
847
|
|
159
|
848 When 'paste' is set in the GUI the toolbar button doesn't work in Insert mode.
|
|
|
849 Use ":exe" in menu.vim to avoid duplicating the commands, instead of using a
|
|
|
850 mapping.
|
|
|
851
|
|
|
852 Treat "mlterm" as an xterm-like terminal. (Seiichi Sato)
|
|
|
853
|
|
|
854 ":z.4" and ":z=4" didn't work Vi compatible.
|
|
|
855
|
|
162
|
856 When sourcing a file, editing it and sourcing it again, it could appear twice
|
|
|
857 in ":scriptnames" and get a new <SID>, because the inode has changed.
|
|
|
858
|
|
|
859 When $SHELL is set but empty the 'shell' option would be empty. Don't use an
|
|
|
860 empty $SHELL value.
|
|
|
861
|
|
|
862 A command "w! file" in .vimrc or $EXINIT didn't work. Now it writes an empty
|
|
|
863 file.
|
|
|
864
|
|
|
865 When a CTRL-F command at the end of the file failed, the cursor was still
|
|
|
866 moved to the start of the line. Now it remains where it is.
|
|
|
867
|
|
|
868 When using ":s" or "&" to repeat the last substitute and "$" was used to put
|
|
|
869 the cursor in the last column, put the cursor in the last column again. This
|
|
|
870 is Vi compatible.
|
|
|
871
|
|
164
|
872 Vim is not fully POSIX compliant but sticks with traditional Vi behavior.
|
|
|
873 Added a few flags in 'cpoptions' to behave the POSIX way when wanted. The
|
|
|
874 $VIM_POSIX environment variable is checked to set the default.
|
|
|
875
|
|
|
876 Appending to a register didn't insert a line break like Vi. Added the '>'
|
|
|
877 flag to 'cpoptions' for this.
|
|
|
878
|
|
|
879 Using "I" in a line with only blanks appended to the line. This is not Vi
|
|
|
880 compatible. Added the 'H' flag in 'coptions' for this.
|
|
|
881
|
|
|
882 When joining multiple lines the cursor would be at the last joint, but Vi
|
|
|
883 leaves it at the position where "J" would put it. Added the 'q' flag in
|
|
|
884 'cpoptions' for this.
|
|
|
885
|
|
|
886 Autoindent didn't work for ":insert" and ":append".
|
|
|
887
|
|
|
888 Using ":append" in an empty buffer kept the dummy line. Now it's deleted to
|
|
|
889 be Vi compatible.
|
|
|
890
|
|
|
891 When reading commands from a file and stdout goes to a terminal, would still
|
|
|
892 request the xterm version. Vim can't read it, thus the output went to the
|
|
|
893 shell and caused trouble there.
|
|
|
894
|
|
169
|
895 When redirecting to a register with an invalid name the redirection would
|
|
|
896 still be done (after an error message). Now reset "redir_reg". (Yegappan
|
|
|
897 Lakshmanan)
|
|
|
898
|
|
|
899 It was not possible to use a NL after a backslash in Ex mode. This is
|
|
|
900 sometimes used to feed multiple lines to a shell command.
|
|
|
901
|
|
170
|
902 When 'cmdheight' is set to 2 in .vimrc and the GUI uses the number of lines
|
|
|
903 from the terminal we actually get 3 lines for the cmdline in gvim.
|
|
|
904
|
|
|
905 When setting $HOME allocated memory would leak.
|
|
|
906
|
|
179
|
907 Win32: bold characters may sometimes write in another character cell. Use
|
|
|
908 unicodepdy[] as for UTF-8. (Taro Muraoka)
|
|
|
909
|
|
|
910 ":w fname" didn't work for files with 'buftype' set to "nofile".
