| 7 This file contains an alphabetical list of messages and error messages that | |
| 8 Vim produces. You can use this if you don't understand what the message | |
| 9 means. It is not complete though. | |
| 10 | |
| 11 1. Old messages |:messages| | |
| 12 2. Error messages |error-messages| | |
| 13 3. Messages |messages| | |
| 14 | |
| 15 ============================================================================== | |
| 16 1. Old messages *:messages* *:mes* *message-history* | |
| 17 | |
| 18 The ":messages" command can be used to view previously given messages. This | |
| 19 is especially useful when messages have been overwritten or truncated. This | |
| 20 depends on the 'shortmess' option. | |
| 21 | |
| 21991 | 22 :mes[sages] Show all messages. |

patch 8.2.3797: no good reason to limit the message history in tiny version

|
32 The number of remembered messages is fixed at 200. |
| 7 | 33 |
| 447 | 34 *g<* |
| 35 The "g<" command can be used to see the last page of previous command output. | |
| 532 | 36 This is especially useful if you accidentally typed <Space> at the hit-enter |
| 1118 | 37 prompt. You are then back at the hit-enter prompt and can then scroll further |
| 38 back. | |
| 2826 | 39 Note: If the output has been stopped with "q" at the more prompt, it will only |
| 40 be displayed up to this point. | |
| 447 | 41 The previous command output is cleared when another command produces output. |

42 The "g<" output is not redirected. |
| 447 | 43 |
| 7 | 44 If you are using translated messages, the first printed line tells who |
| 45 maintains the messages or the translations. You can use this to contact the | |
| 46 maintainer when you spot a mistake. | |
| 47 | |
| 48 If you want to find help on a specific (error) message, use the ID at the | |
| 27321 | 49 start of the message. For example, to get help on the message: |
| 7 | 50 |
| 27321 | 51 E72: Close error on swap file ~ |
| 7 | 52 |
| 27321 | 53 or (translated): |
| 7 | 54 |
| 27321 | 55 E72: Errore durante chiusura swap file ~ |
| 7 | 56 |
| 57 Use: > | |
| 58 | |
| 59 :help E72 | |
| 60 | |
| 61 If you are lazy, it also works without the shift key: > | |
| 62 | |
| 63 :help e72 | |
| 64 | |
| 27321 | 65 The number in this ID has no meaning. |

| 70 When an error message is displayed, but it is removed before you could read | |
| 71 it, you can see it again with: > | |

| 153 This means that there are not enough colors available for Vim. It will still | |

157 Browsers are known to consume a lot of colors. You can avoid this with |
| 27321 | 158 netscape by telling it to use its own colormap: |
| 159 netscape -install ~ | |
| 160 Or tell it to limit to a certain number of colors (64 should work well): | |
| 161 netscape -ncols 64 ~ | |
| 162 This can also be done with a line in your Xdefaults file: | |
| 163 Netscape*installColormap: Yes ~ | |
| 164 or | |
| 165 Netscape*maxImageColors: 64 ~ | |
| 166 | |
| 29290 | 167 *E79* |
| 27321 | 168 Cannot expand wildcards ~ |
| 7 | 169 |
| 170 A filename contains a strange combination of characters, which causes Vim to | |
| 171 attempt expanding wildcards but this fails. This does NOT mean that no | |
| 172 matching file names could be found, but that the pattern was illegal. | |
| 173 | |
| 29290 | 174 *E459* |
| 27321 | 175 Cannot go back to previous directory ~ |
| 7 | 176 |
| 177 While expanding a file name, Vim failed to go back to the previously used | |
| 178 directory. All file names being used may be invalid now! You need to have | |
| 179 execute permission on the current directory. | |
| 180 | |
| 29290 | 181 *E190* *E212* |
| 27321 | 182 Cannot open "{filename}" for writing ~ |
| 183 Can't open file for writing ~ | |
| 7 | 184 |
| 185 For some reason the file you are writing to cannot be created or overwritten. | |
| 186 The reason could be that you do not have permission to write in the directory | |
| 187 or the file name is not valid. | |
| 188 | |
| 29290 | 189 *E166* |
| 27321 | 190 Can't open linked file for writing ~ |
| 7 | 191 |
| 192 You are trying to write to a file which can't be overwritten, and the file is | |
| 193 a link (either a hard link or a symbolic link). Writing might still be | |
| 194 possible if the directory that contains the link or the file is writable, but | |
| 195 Vim now doesn't know if you want to delete the link and write the file in its | |
| 196 place, or if you want to delete the file itself and write the new file in its | |
| 197 place. If you really want to write the file under this name, you have to | |
| 198 manually delete the link or the file, or change the permissions so that Vim | |
| 199 can overwrite. | |
| 200 | |
| 29290 | 201 *E46* |
| 27321 | 202 Cannot change read-only variable "{name}" ~ |
| 7 | 203 |
| 204 You are trying to assign a value to an argument of a function |a:var| or a Vim | |
| 205 internal variable |v:var| which is read-only. | |
| 206 | |
| 29290 | 207 *E90* |
| 27321 | 208 Cannot unload last buffer ~ |
| 7 | 209 |
| 210 Vim always requires one buffer to be loaded, otherwise there would be nothing | |
| 211 to display in the window. | |
| 212 | |
| 29290 | 213 *E40* |
| 27321 | 214 Can't open errorfile <filename> ~ |
| 7 | 215 |
| 216 When using the ":make" or ":grep" commands: The file used to save the error | |
| 217 messages or grep output cannot be opened. This can have several causes: | |
| 218 - 'shellredir' has a wrong value. | |
| 219 - The shell changes directory, causing the error file to be written in another | |
| 220 directory. This could be fixed by changing 'makeef', but then the make | |
| 221 command is still executed in the wrong directory. | |
| 222 - 'makeef' has a wrong value. | |
| 223 - The 'grepprg' or 'makeprg' could not be executed. This cannot always be | |
| 224 detected (especially on MS-Windows). Check your $PATH. | |
| 225 | |
| 29290 | 226 |
| 27321 | 227 Can't open file C:\TEMP\VIoD243.TMP ~ |
| 7 | 228 |
| 229 On MS-Windows, this message appears when the output of an external command was | |
| 230 to be read, but the command didn't run successfully. This can be caused by | |
| 231 many things. Check the 'shell', 'shellquote', 'shellxquote', 'shellslash' and | |
| 232 related options. It might also be that the external command was not found, | |
| 233 there is no different error message for that. | |
| 234 | |
| 29290 | 235 *E12* |
| 27321 | 236 Command not allowed from exrc/vimrc in current dir or tag search ~ |
| 7 | 237 |
| 238 Some commands are not allowed for security reasons. These commands mostly | |
| 239 come from a .exrc or .vimrc file in the current directory, or from a tags | |
| 240 file. Also see 'secure'. | |
| 241 | |
| 29290 | 242 *E74* |
| 27321 | 243 Command too complex ~ |
| 7 | 244 |
| 245 A mapping resulted in a very long command string. Could be caused by a | |
| 246 mapping that indirectly calls itself. | |
| 247 | |
| 27321 | 248 |
| 249 CONVERSION ERROR ~ | |
| 7 | 250 |
| 251 When writing a file and the text "CONVERSION ERROR" appears, this means that | |
| 252 some bits were lost when converting text from the internally used UTF-8 to the | |
| 253 format of the file. The file will not be marked unmodified. If you care | |
| 254 about the loss of information, set the 'fileencoding' option to another value | |
| 255 that can handle the characters in the buffer and write again. If you don't | |
| 256 care, you can abandon the buffer or reset the 'modified' option. | |
| 16808 | 257 If there is a backup file, when 'writebackup' or 'backup' is set, it will not |
| 258 be deleted, so you can move it back into place if you want to discard the | |
| 259 changes. | |
| 7 | 260 |
| 29290 | 261 *E302* |
| 27321 | 262 Could not rename swap file ~ |
| 7 | 263 |
| 264 When the file name changes, Vim tries to rename the |swap-file| as well. | |
| 265 This failed and the old swap file is now still used. Mostly harmless. | |
| 266 | |
| 29290 | 267 *E43* *E44* |
| 27321 | 268 Damaged match string ~ |
| 269 Corrupted regexp program ~ | |
| 7 | 270 |
| 271 Something inside Vim went wrong and resulted in a corrupted regexp. If you | |
| 272 know how to reproduce this problem, please report it. |bugs| | |
| 273 | |
| 29290 | 274 *E208* *E209* *E210* |
| 27321 | 275 Error writing to "{filename}" ~ |
| 276 Error closing "{filename}" ~ | |
| 277 Error reading "{filename}" ~ | |
| 7 | 278 |
| 279 This occurs when Vim is trying to rename a file, but a simple change of file | |
| 280 name doesn't work. Then the file will be copied, but somehow this failed. | |
| 281 The result may be that both the original file and the destination file exist | |
| 282 and the destination file may be incomplete. | |
| 283 | |
| 27321 | 284 |
| 285 Vim: Error reading input, exiting... ~ | |
| 7 | 286 |
| 287 This occurs when Vim cannot read typed characters while input is required. | |
| 288 Vim got stuck, the only thing it can do is exit. This can happen when both | |
| 289 stdin and stderr are redirected and executing a script that doesn't exit Vim. | |
| 290 | |
| 29290 | 291 *E47* |
| 27321 | 292 Error while reading errorfile ~ |
| 7 | 293 |
| 294 Reading the error file was not possible. This is NOT caused by an error | |
| 295 message that was not recognized. | |
| 296 | |
| 29290 | 297 *E80* |
| 27321 | 298 Error while writing ~ |
| 7 | 299 |
| 300 Writing a file was not completed successfully. The file is probably | |
| 301 incomplete. | |
| 302 | |
| 29290 | 303 *E13* *E189* |
| 27321 | 304 File exists (add ! to override) ~ |
| 305 "{filename}" exists (add ! to override) ~ | |
| 7 | 306 |
| 307 You are protected from accidentally overwriting a file. When you want to | |
| 308 write anyway, use the same command, but add a "!" just after the command. | |
| 309 Example: > | |
| 310 :w /tmp/test | |
| 311 changes to: > | |
| 312 :w! /tmp/test | |
| 313 < | |
| 29290 | 314 *E768* |
| 27321 | 315 Swap file exists: {filename} (:silent! overrides) ~ |
| 457 | 316 |
| 317 You are protected from overwriting a file that is being edited by Vim. This | |
| 318 happens when you use ":w! filename" and a swapfile is found. | |
| 319 - If the swapfile was left over from an old crashed edit session you may want | |
| 320 to delete the swapfile. Edit {filename} to find out information about the | |
| 321 swapfile. | |
| 322 - If you want to write anyway prepend ":silent!" to the command. For example: > | |
| 856 | 323 :silent! w! /tmp/test |
| 457 | 324 < The special command is needed, since you already added the ! for overwriting |
| 325 an existing file. | |
| 326 | |
| 29290 | 327 *E139* |
| 27321 | 328 File is loaded in another buffer ~ |
| 7 | 329 |
| 330 You are trying to write a file under a name which is also used in another | |
| 331 buffer. This would result in two versions of the same file. | |
| 332 | |
| 29290 | 333 *E142* |
| 27321 | 334 File not written: Writing is disabled by 'write' option ~ |
| 7 | 335 |
| 336 The 'write' option is off. This makes all commands that try to write a file | |
| 337 generate this message. This could be caused by a |-m| commandline argument. | |
| 338 You can switch the 'write' option on with ":set write". | |
| 339 | |
| 29290 | 340 *E25* |
| 27321 | 341 GUI cannot be used: Not enabled at compile time ~ |
| 7 | 342 |
| 343 You are running a version of Vim that doesn't include the GUI code. Therefore | |
| 344 "gvim" and ":gui" don't work. | |
| 345 | |
| 29290 | 346 *E49* |
| 27321 | 347 Invalid scroll size ~ |

| 349 This is caused by setting an invalid value for the 'scroll', 'scrolljump' or | |
| 350 'scrolloff' options. | |
| 351 | |
| 29290 | 352 *E17* |
| 27321 | 353 "{filename}" is a directory ~ |
| 7 | 354 |
| 355 You tried to write a file with the name of a directory. This is not possible. | |
| 356 You probably need to append a file name. | |
| 357 | |
| 29290 | 358 *E19* |
| 27321 | 359 Mark has invalid line number ~ |
| 7 | 360 |
| 361 You are using a mark that has a line number that doesn't exist. This can | |
| 362 happen when you have a mark in another file, and some other program has | |
| 363 deleted lines from it. | |
| 364 | |

| 7 | 368 |
| 369 Using a {} construct in a file name, but there is a { without a matching } or | |
| 370 the other way around. It should be used like this: {foo,bar}. This matches | |
| 371 "foo" and "bar". | |
| 372 | |
| 29290 | 373 *E315* |
| 27321 | 374 ml_get: invalid lnum: {number} ~ |
| 7 | 375 |
| 376 This is an internal Vim error. Please try to find out how it can be | |
| 377 reproduced, and submit a bug report |bugreport.vim|. | |
| 378 | |
| 29290 | 379 *E173* |
| 27321 | 380 {number} more files to edit ~ |
| 7 | 381 |
| 382 You are trying to exit, while the last item in the argument list has not been | |
| 383 edited. This protects you from accidentally exiting when you still have more | |
| 384 files to work on. See |argument-list|. If you do want to exit, just do it | |
| 385 again and it will work. | |
| 386 | |
| 29290 | 387 *E23* *E194* |
| 27321 | 388 No alternate file ~ |
| 389 No alternate file name to substitute for '#' ~ | |

| 392 | |
| 29290 | 393 *E32* |
| 27321 | 394 No file name ~ |
| 7 | 395 |
| 396 The current buffer has no name. To write it, use ":w fname". Or give the | |
| 397 buffer a name with ":file fname". | |
| 398 | |
| 29290 | 399 *E141* |
| 27321 | 400 No file name for buffer {number} ~ |
| 7 | 401 |
| 402 One of the buffers that was changed does not have a file name. Therefore it | |
| 403 cannot be written. You need to give the buffer a file name: > | |
| 404 :buffer {number} | |
| 405 :file {filename} | |
| 406 < | |
| 29290 | 407 *E33* |
| 27321 | 408 No previous substitute regular expression ~ |
| 7 | 409 |
| 410 When using the '~' character in a pattern, it is replaced with the previously | |
| 411 used pattern in a ":substitute" command. This fails when no such command has | |
| 167 | 412 been used yet. See |/~|. This also happens when using ":s/pat/%/", where the |
| 413 "%" stands for the previous substitute string. | |
| 7 | 414 |
| 29290 | 415 *E35* |
| 27321 | 416 No previous regular expression ~ |
| 7 | 417 |
| 418 When using an empty search pattern, the previous search pattern is used. But | |
| 419 that is not possible if there was no previous search. | |
| 420 | |
| 29290 | 421 *E24* |
| 27321 | 422 No such abbreviation ~ |
| 7 | 423 |
| 424 You have used an ":unabbreviate" command with an argument which is not an | |
| 425 existing abbreviation. All variations of this command give the same message: | |
| 426 ":cunabbrev", ":iunabbrev", etc. Check for trailing white space. | |
| 427 | |
| 27321 | 428 |

| 433 | |

| 435 No such mapping ~ | |
| 7 | 436 |
| 437 You have used an ":unmap" command with an argument which is not an existing | |
| 438 mapping. All variations of this command give the same message: ":cunmap", | |
| 826 | 439 ":unmap!", etc. A few hints: |
| 440 - Check for trailing white space. | |
| 441 - If the mapping is buffer-local you need to use ":unmap <buffer>". | |

| 27321 | 445 No write since last change (add ! to override) ~ |
| 446 No write since last change for buffer {N} (add ! to override) ~ | |
| 7 | 447 |
| 448 You are trying to |abandon| a file that has changes. Vim protects you from | |
| 449 losing your work. You can either write the changed file with ":w", or, if you | |
| 450 are sure, |abandon| it anyway, and lose all the changes. This can be done by | |
| 451 adding a '!' character just after the command you used. Example: > | |
| 452 :e other_file | |
| 453 changes to: > | |
| 454 :e! other_file | |
| 455 < | |
| 29290 | 456 *E162* |
| 27321 | 457 No write since last change for buffer "{name}" ~ |
| 7 | 458 |
| 459 This appears when you try to exit Vim while some buffers are changed. You | |
| 460 will either have to write the changed buffer (with |:w|), or use a command to | |
| 461 abandon the buffer forcefully, e.g., with ":qa!". Careful, make sure you | |
| 462 don't throw away changes you really want to keep. You might have forgotten | |
| 463 about a buffer, especially when 'hidden' is set. | |
| 464 | |
| 27321 | 465 |
| 466 [No write since last change] ~ | |
| 22 | 467 |
| 468 This appears when executing a shell command while at least one buffer was | |
| 469 changed. To avoid the message reset the 'warn' option. | |
| 470 | |
| 29290 | 471 *E38* |
| 27321 | 472 Null argument ~ |
| 7 | 473 |
| 474 Something inside Vim went wrong and resulted in a NULL pointer. If you know | |
| 475 how to reproduce this problem, please report it. |bugs| | |
| 476 | |

| 480 Cannot allocate any buffer, exiting... ~ | |
| 481 Cannot allocate buffer, using other one... ~ | |
| 7 | 482 |
| 483 Oh, oh. You must have been doing something complicated, or some other program | |
| 484 is consuming your memory. Be careful! Vim is not completely prepared for an | |
| 485 out-of-memory situation. First make sure that any changes are saved. Then | |
| 486 try to solve the memory shortage. To stay on the safe side, exit Vim and | |
| 2415 | 487 start again. |
| 488 | |
| 17909 | 489 If this happens while Vim is still initializing, editing files is very |
| 18343 | 490 unlikely to work, therefore Vim will exit with value 123. |
| 17909 | 491 |
| 2415 | 492 Buffers are only partly kept in memory, thus editing a very large file is |
| 493 unlikely to cause an out-of-memory situation. Undo information is completely | |
| 494 in memory, you can reduce that with these options: | |
| 495 - 'undolevels' Set to a low value, or to -1 to disable undo completely. This | |
| 496 helps for a change that affects all lines. | |
| 497 - 'undoreload' Set to zero to disable. | |

| 27321 | 508 'readonly' option is set (add ! to override) ~ |
| 7 | 509 |
| 510 You are trying to write a file that was marked as read-only. To write the | |
| 511 file anyway, either reset the 'readonly' option, or add a '!' character just | |
| 512 after the command you used. Example: > | |
| 513 :w | |
| 514 changes to: > | |
| 515 :w! | |
| 516 < | |

| 27321 | 518 Read error in swap file ~ |
| 519 Seek error in swap file read ~ | |
| 520 Oops, lost the swap file!!! ~ | |
| 7 | 521 |
| 522 Vim tried to read text from the |swap-file|, but something went wrong. The | |
| 523 text in the related buffer may now be corrupted! Check carefully before you | |
| 524 write a buffer. You may want to write it in another file and check for | |
| 525 differences. | |
| 526 | |
| 29290 | 527 *E192* |
| 27321 | 528 Recursive use of :normal too deep ~ |
| 7 | 529 |
| 530 You are using a ":normal" command, whose argument again uses a ":normal" | |
| 531 command in a recursive way. This is restricted to 'maxmapdepth' levels. This | |
| 532 example illustrates how to get this message: > | |
| 533 :map gq :normal gq<CR> | |
| 534 If you type "gq", it will execute this mapping, which will call "gq" again. | |
| 535 | |
| 29290 | 536 *E22* |
| 27321 | 537 Scripts nested too deep ~ |
| 7 | 538 |
| 27036 | 539 Scripts can be read with the "-s" command-line argument and with the |
| 540 `:source!` command. The script can then again read another script. This can | |
| 541 continue for about 14 levels. When more nesting is done, Vim assumes that | |
| 542 there is a recursive loop and stops with this error message. | |
| 7 | 543 |
| 29290 | 544 *E319* |
| 27321 | 545 Sorry, the command is not available in this version ~ |
| 7 | 546 |
| 547 You have used a command that is not present in the version of Vim you are | |
| 548 using. When compiling Vim, many different features can be enabled or | |
| 549 disabled. This depends on how big Vim has chosen to be and the operating | |
| 550 system. See |+feature-list| for when which feature is available. The | |
| 551 |:version| command shows which feature Vim was compiled with. | |

| 27321 | 554 Swap file already exists (symlink attack?) ~ |
| 7 | 555 |
| 556 This message appears when Vim is trying to open a swap file and finds it | |
| 557 already exists or finds a symbolic link in its place. This shouldn't happen, | |
| 558 because Vim already checked that the file doesn't exist. Either someone else | |
| 559 opened the same file at exactly the same moment (very unlikely) or someone is | |
| 560 attempting a symlink attack (could happen when editing a file in /tmp or when | |
| 561 'directory' starts with "/tmp", which is a bad choice). | |

| 567 can then be used, which is a lot faster than a linear search. If your tags | |
| 568 files are not properly sorted, reset the |'tagbsearch'| option. | |

| 576 Vim can only handle about 223 different kinds of highlighting. If you run | |

| 578 arguments. A ":highlight link" is not counted. | |

| 634 probably means that some other program changed the file. You will have to | |

| 29290 | 707 *E10* |
| 27321 | 708 \\ should be followed by /, ? or & ~ |
| 7 | 709 |
| 710 A command line started with a backslash or the range of a command contained a | |
| 711 backslash in a wrong place. This is often caused by command-line continuation | |
| 712 being disabled. Remove the 'C' flag from the 'cpoptions' option to enable it. | |
| 20 | 713 Or use ":set nocp". |
| 7 | 714 |
| 29290 | 715 *E471* |
| 27321 | 716 Argument required ~ |
| 7 | 717 |
| 718 This happens when an Ex command with mandatory argument(s) was executed, but | |
| 719 no argument has been specified. | |
| 720 | |
| 29290 | 721 *E474* *E475* *E983* |
| 27321 | 722 Invalid argument ~ |
| 723 Invalid argument: {arg} ~ | |
| 724 Duplicate argument: {arg} ~ | |
| 7 | 725 |
| 16267 | 726 An Ex command or function has been executed, but an invalid argument has been |
| 727 specified. | |
| 7 | 728 |
| 29290 | 729 *E488* |
| 27321 | 730 Trailing characters ~ |
| 27459 | 731 Trailing characters: {text} ~ |
| 7 | 732 |
| 733 An argument has been added to an Ex command that does not permit one. | |
| 27036 | 734 Or the argument has invalid characters and has not been recognized. |
| 7 | 735 |
| 29290 | 736 *E477* *E478* |
| 27321 | 737 No ! allowed ~ |
| 738 Don't panic! ~ | |
| 7 | 739 |
| 740 You have added a "!" after an Ex command that doesn't permit one. | |
| 741 | |
| 29290 | 742 *E481* |
| 27321 | 743 No range allowed ~ |
| 7 | 744 |
| 745 A range was specified for an Ex command that doesn't permit one. See | |
| 746 |cmdline-ranges|. | |
| 747 | |
| 29290 | 748 *E482* *E483* |
| 27321 | 749 Can't create file {filename} ~ |
| 750 Can't get temp file name ~ | |
| 7 | 751 |
| 752 Vim cannot create a temporary file. | |
| 753 | |
| 29290 | 754 *E484* *E485* |
| 27321 | 755 Can't open file {filename} ~ |
| 756 Can't read file {filename} ~ | |
| 7 | 757 |
| 4186 | 758 Vim cannot read a temporary file. Especially on Windows, this can be caused |
| 759 by wrong escaping of special characters for cmd.exe; the approach was | |
| 760 changed with patch 7.3.443. Try using |shellescape()| for all shell arguments | |
| 761 given to |system()|, or explicitly add escaping with ^. Also see | |
| 762 'shellxquote' and 'shellxescape'. | |
| 7 | 763 |
| 29290 | 764 *E464* |
| 27321 | 765 Ambiguous use of user-defined command ~ |
| 7 | 766 |
| 767 There are two user-defined commands with a common name prefix, and you used | |
| 768 Command-line completion to execute one of them. |user-cmd-ambiguous| | |
| 769 Example: > | |
| 770 :command MyCommand1 echo "one" | |
| 771 :command MyCommand2 echo "two" | |
| 772 :MyCommand | |
| 773 < | |
| 29290 | 774 *E492* |
| 27321 | 775 Not an editor command ~ |
| 7 | 776 |
| 777 You tried to execute a command that is neither an Ex command nor | |
| 778 a user-defined command. | |
| 779 | |
| 29290 | 780 *E943* |
| 27321 | 781 Command table needs to be updated, run 'make cmdidxs' ~ |
| 11262 | 782 |
| 783 This can only happen when changing the source code, when adding a command in | |
| 784 src/ex_cmds.h. The lookup table then needs to be updated, by running: > | |
| 785 make cmdidxs | |
| 25619 | 786 < |
| 29290 | 787 *E928* *E889* |
| 27321 | 788 E928: String required ~ |
| 789 E889: Number required ~ | |
| 25619 | 790 |
| 791 These happen when a value or expression is used that does not have the | |
| 792 expected type. | |

| 7 | 794 ============================================================================== |
| 795 3. Messages *messages* | |
| 796 | |
| 797 This is an (incomplete) overview of various messages that Vim gives: | |
| 798 | |
| 446 | 799 *hit-enter* *press-enter* *hit-return* |
| 800 *press-return* *hit-enter-prompt* | |
| 7 | 801 |
| 27459 | 802 Press ENTER or type command to continue ~ |
| 7 | 803 |
| 804 This message is given when there is something on the screen for you to read, | |
| 805 and the screen is about to be redrawn: | |
| 806 - After executing an external command (e.g., ":!ls" and "="). | |
| 807 - Something is displayed on the status line that is longer than the width of | |
| 808 the window, or runs into the 'showcmd' or 'ruler' output. | |
| 809 | |
| 446 | 810 -> Press <Enter> or <Space> to redraw the screen and continue, without that |
| 811 key being used otherwise. | |
| 812 -> Press ':' or any other Normal mode command character to start that command. | |
| 23466 | 813 Note that after an external command some special keys, such as the cursor |
| 814 keys, may not work normally, because the terminal is still set to a state | |
| 815 for executing the external command. | |
| 698 | 816 -> Press 'k', <Up>, 'u', 'b' or 'g' to scroll back in the messages. This |
| 817 works the same way as at the |more-prompt|. Only works when 'compatible' | |
| 818 is off and 'more' is on. | |

821 typing one 'j' or 'f' too many causes the messages to disappear. |
| 446 | 822 -> Press <C-Y> to copy (yank) a modeless selection to the clipboard register. |
| 7 | 823 -> Use a menu. The characters defined for Cmdline-mode are used. |
| 824 -> When 'mouse' contains the 'r' flag, clicking the left mouse button works | |
| 825 like pressing <Space>. This makes it impossible to select text though. | |
| 826 -> For the GUI clicking the left mouse button in the last line works like | |
| 827 pressing <Space>. | |
| 828 | |
| 447 | 829 If you accidentally hit <Enter> or <Space> and you want to see the displayed |
| 830 text then use |g<|. This only works when 'more' is set. | |
| 831 | |
| 7 | 832 To reduce the number of hit-enter prompts: |
| 833 - Set 'cmdheight' to 2 or higher. | |
| 834 - Add flags to 'shortmess'. | |
| 835 - Reset 'showcmd' and/or 'ruler'. | |
| 17909 | 836 - Make sure `:echo` text is shorter than or equal to |v:echospace| screen |
| 837 cells. | |
| 7 | 838 |
| 539 | 839 If your script causes the hit-enter prompt and you don't know why, you may |
| 840 find the |v:scrollstart| variable useful. | |
| 841 | |
| 7 | 842 Also see 'mouse'. The hit-enter message is highlighted with the |hl-Question| |
| 843 group. | |

| 850 This message is given when the screen is filled with messages. It is only | |
| 851 given when the 'more' option is on. It is highlighted with the |hl-MoreMsg| | |
| 852 group. | |

877 (*) Clicking the left mouse button only works: |
