15 Vim has a number of internal variables and switches which can be set to | |
16 achieve special effects. These options come in three forms: | |
17 boolean can only be on or off *boolean* *toggle* | |
18 number has a numeric value | |
19 string has a string value | |

72 hex (preceded with 0x) or octal (preceded with '0'). |
7 | 73 The old value can be inserted by typing 'wildchar' (by |
74 default this is a <Tab> or CTRL-E if 'compatible' is | |
75 set). See |cmdline-completion|. | |
76 White space between {option} and '=' is allowed and | |
77 will be ignored. White space between '=' and {value} | |
78 is not allowed. | |
79 See |option-backslash| for using white space and | |
80 backslashes in {value}. | |
81 | |
82 :se[t] {option}+={value} *:set+=* | |
83 Add the {value} to a number option, or append the | |
84 {value} to a string option. When the option is a | |
85 comma separated list, a comma is added, unless the | |
86 value was empty. | |
87 If the option is a list of flags, superfluous flags | |
557 | 88 are removed. When adding a flag that was already |
89 present the option value doesn't change. | |
809 | 90 Also see |:set-args| above. |
7 | 91 {not in Vi} |
92 | |
93 :se[t] {option}^={value} *:set^=* | |
94 Multiply the {value} to a number option, or prepend | |
95 the {value} to a string option. When the option is a | |
96 comma separated list, a comma is added, unless the | |
97 value was empty. | |
98 Also see |:set-args| above. | |
99 {not in Vi} | |
100 | |
101 :se[t] {option}-={value} *:set-=* | |
102 Subtract the {value} from a number option, or remove | |
103 the {value} from a string option, if it is there. | |
104 If the {value} is not found in a string option, there | |
105 is no error or warning. When the option is a comma | |
106 separated list, a comma is deleted, unless the option | |
107 becomes empty. | |
108 When the option is a list of flags, {value} must be | |
109 exactly as they appear in the option. Remove flags | |
110 one by one to avoid problems. | |
111 Also see |:set-args| above. | |
112 {not in Vi} | |
113 | |
114 The {option} arguments to ":set" may be repeated. For example: > | |
115 :set ai nosi sw=3 ts=3 | |
116 If you make an error in one of the arguments, an error message will be given | |
117 and the following arguments will be ignored. | |
118 | |
119 *:set-verbose* | |
120 When 'verbose' is non-zero, displaying an option value will also tell where it | |
121 was last set. Example: > | |
122 :verbose set shiftwidth cindent? | |
1621 | 123 < shiftwidth=4 ~ |
124 Last set from modeline ~ | |
125 cindent ~ | |
126 Last set from /usr/local/share/vim/vim60/ftplugin/c.vim ~ | |
127 This is only done when specific option values are requested, not for ":verbose | |
128 set all" or ":verbose set" without an argument. | |
129 When the option was set by hand there is no "Last set" message. | |
7 | 130 When the option was set while executing a function, user command or |
131 autocommand, the script in which it was defined is reported. | |
132 Note that an option may also have been set as a side effect of setting | |
133 'compatible'. | |
1621 | 134 A few special texts: |
135 Last set from modeline ~ | |
136 Option was set in a |modeline|. | |
137 Last set from --cmd argument ~ | |
138 Option was set with command line argument |--cmd| or +. | |
139 Last set from -c argument ~ | |
140 Option was set with command line argument |-c|, +, |-S| or | |
141 |-q|. | |
142 Last set from environment variable ~ | |
143 Option was set from an environment variable, $VIMINIT, | |
144 $GVIMINIT or $EXINIT. | |
145 Last set from error handler ~ | |
146 Option was cleared when evaluating it resulted in an error. | |

7 | 149 |
150 *:set-termcap* *E522* | |
667 | 151 For {option} the form "t_xx" may be used to set a terminal option. This will |
7 | 152 override the value from the termcap. You can then use it in a mapping. If |
153 the "xx" part contains special characters, use the <t_xx> form: > | |
154 :set <t_#4>=^[Ot | |
155 This can also be used to translate a special code for a normal key. For | |
156 example, if Alt-b produces <Esc>b, use this: > | |
157 :set <M-b>=^[b | |
158 (the ^[ is a real <Esc> here, use CTRL-V <Esc> to enter it) | |
159 The advantage over a mapping is that it works in all situations. | |
160 | |
2726 | 161 You can define any key codes, e.g.: > |
162 :set t_xy=^[foo; | |
163 There is no warning for using a name that isn't recognized. You can map these | |
164 codes as you like: > | |
165 :map <t_xy> something | |
166 < *E846* | |
167 When a key code is not set, it's like it does not exist. Trying to get its | |
168 value will result in an error: > | |
169 :set t_kb= | |
170 :set t_kb | |
171 E846: Key code not set: t_kb | |
172 | |
36 | 173 The t_xx options cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for |
174 security reasons. | |
175 | |
7 | 176 The listing from ":set" looks different from Vi. Long string options are put |
10 | 177 at the end of the list. The number of options is quite large. The output of |
7 | 178 "set all" probably does not fit on the screen, causing Vim to give the |
179 |more-prompt|. | |
180 | |
181 *option-backslash* | |
182 To include white space in a string option value it has to be preceded with a | |
183 backslash. To include a backslash you have to use two. Effectively this | |
184 means that the number of backslashes in an option value is halved (rounded | |
185 down). | |
186 A few examples: > | |
187 :set tags=tags\ /usr/tags results in "tags /usr/tags" | |
188 :set tags=tags\\,file results in "tags\,file" | |
189 :set tags=tags\\\ file results in "tags\ file" | |
190 | |
10 | 191 The "|" character separates a ":set" command from a following command. To |
192 include the "|" in the option value, use "\|" instead. This example sets the | |
7 | 193 'titlestring' option to "hi|there": > |
194 :set titlestring=hi\|there | |
195 This sets the 'titlestring' option to "hi" and 'iconstring' to "there": > | |
196 :set titlestring=hi|set iconstring=there | |
197 | |
642 | 198 Similarly, the double quote character starts a comment. To include the '"' in |
199 the option value, use '\"' instead. This example sets the 'titlestring' | |
200 option to 'hi "there"': > | |
201 :set titlestring=hi\ \"there\" | |
202 | |
10 | 203 For MS-DOS and WIN32 backslashes in file names are mostly not removed. More |
7 | 204 precise: For options that expect a file name (those where environment |
205 variables are expanded) a backslash before a normal file name character is not | |
206 removed. But a backslash before a special character (space, backslash, comma, | |
207 etc.) is used like explained above. | |
208 There is one special situation, when the value starts with "\\": > | |
209 :set dir=\\machine\path results in "\\machine\path" | |
210 :set dir=\\\\machine\\path results in "\\machine\path" | |
211 :set dir=\\path\\file results in "\\path\file" (wrong!) | |
212 For the first one the start is kept, but for the second one the backslashes | |
213 are halved. This makes sure it works both when you expect backslashes to be | |
10 | 214 halved and when you expect the backslashes to be kept. The third gives a |
7 | 215 result which is probably not what you want. Avoid it. |
216 | |
217 *add-option-flags* *remove-option-flags* | |
218 *E539* *E550* *E551* *E552* | |
219 Some options are a list of flags. When you want to add a flag to such an | |
220 option, without changing the existing ones, you can do it like this: > | |
221 :set guioptions+=a | |
222 Remove a flag from an option like this: > | |
223 :set guioptions-=a | |
224 This removes the 'a' flag from 'guioptions'. | |
10 | 225 Note that you should add or remove one flag at a time. If 'guioptions' has |
7 | 226 the value "ab", using "set guioptions-=ba" won't work, because the string "ba" |
227 doesn't appear. | |
228 | |
229 *:set_env* *expand-env* *expand-environment-var* | |
22 | 230 Environment variables in specific string options will be expanded. If the |
7 | 231 environment variable exists the '$' and the following environment variable |
232 name is replaced with its value. If it does not exist the '$' and the name | |
233 are not modified. Any non-id character (not a letter, digit or '_') may | |
234 follow the environment variable name. That character and what follows is | |
235 appended to the value of the environment variable. Examples: > | |
236 :set term=$TERM.new | |
237 :set path=/usr/$INCLUDE,$HOME/include,. | |
238 When adding or removing a string from an option with ":set opt-=val" or ":set | |
239 opt+=val" the expansion is done before the adding or removing. | |
240 | |

245 has its own copy of this option, thus each can have its own value. This |
7 | 246 allows you to set 'list' in one window but not in another. And set |
247 'shiftwidth' to 3 in one buffer and 4 in another. | |
248 | |
249 The following explains what happens to these local options in specific | |
250 situations. You don't really need to know all of this, since Vim mostly uses | |
251 the option values you would expect. Unfortunately, doing what the user | |
252 expects is a bit complicated... | |
253 | |
254 When splitting a window, the local options are copied to the new window. Thus | |
255 right after the split the contents of the two windows look the same. | |
256 | |
257 When editing a new buffer, its local option values must be initialized. Since | |
258 the local options of the current buffer might be specifically for that buffer, | |
259 these are not used. Instead, for each buffer-local option there also is a | |
260 global value, which is used for new buffers. With ":set" both the local and | |
261 global value is changed. With "setlocal" only the local value is changed, | |
262 thus this value is not used when editing a new buffer. | |

267 last closed window where the buffer was edited last are used. |
7 | 268 |
269 It's possible to set a local window option specifically for a type of buffer. | |
270 When you edit another buffer in the same window, you don't want to keep | |
271 using these local window options. Therefore Vim keeps a global value of the | |
272 local window options, which is used when editing another buffer. Each window | |
273 has its own copy of these values. Thus these are local to the window, but | |
274 global to all buffers in the window. With this you can do: > | |
275 :e one | |
276 :set list | |
277 :e two | |
278 Now the 'list' option will also be set in "two", since with the ":set list" | |
279 command you have also set the global value. > | |
280 :set nolist | |
281 :e one | |
282 :setlocal list | |
283 :e two | |
284 Now the 'list' option is not set, because ":set nolist" resets the global | |
285 value, ":setlocal list" only changes the local value and ":e two" gets the | |
286 global value. Note that if you do this next: > | |
287 :e one | |
4358 | 288 You will get back the 'list' value as it was the last time you edited "one". |
289 The options local to a window are remembered for each buffer. This also | |
290 happens when the buffer is not loaded, but they are lost when the buffer is | |
291 wiped out |:bwipe|. | |
7 | 292 |
293 *:setl* *:setlocal* | |
294 :setl[ocal] ... Like ":set" but set only the value local to the | |
295 current buffer or window. Not all options have a | |
296 local value. If the option does not have a local | |
297 value the global value is set. | |
2413 | 298 With the "all" argument: display local values for all |
299 local options. | |
300 Without argument: Display local values for all local | |
301 options which are different from the default. | |
7 | 302 When displaying a specific local option, show the |
1621 | 303 local value. For a global/local boolean option, when |
304 the global value is being used, "--" is displayed | |
305 before the option name. | |
306 For a global option the global value is | |
7 | 307 shown (but that might change in the future). |
308 {not in Vi} | |
309 | |
809 | 310 :setl[ocal] {option}< Set the local value of {option} to its global value by |
311 copying the value. | |
312 {not in Vi} | |
313 | |

315 {option}, so that the global value will be used. | |

319 :setg[lobal] ... Like ":set" but set only the global value for a local | |
320 option without changing the local value. | |
321 When displaying an option, the global value is shown. | |
2413 | 322 With the "all" argument: display global values for all |
323 local options. | |
324 Without argument: display global values for all local | |
325 options which are different from the default. | |
7 | 326 {not in Vi} |
327 | |
328 For buffer-local and window-local options: | |
329 Command global value local value ~ | |
330 :set option=value set set | |
331 :setlocal option=value - set | |
332 :setglobal option=value set - | |
333 :set option? - display | |
334 :setlocal option? - display | |
335 :setglobal option? display - | |
336 | |
337 | |
338 Global options with a local value *global-local* | |
339 | |
40 | 340 Options are global when you mostly use one value for all buffers and windows. |
341 For some global options it's useful to sometimes have a different local value. | |
342 You can set the local value with ":setlocal". That buffer or window will then | |
343 use the local value, while other buffers and windows continue using the global | |
344 value. | |
7 | 345 |
346 For example, you have two windows, both on C source code. They use the global | |
347 'makeprg' option. If you do this in one of the two windows: > | |
348 :set makeprg=gmake | |
349 then the other window will switch to the same value. There is no need to set | |
350 the 'makeprg' option in the other C source window too. | |
351 However, if you start editing a Perl file in a new window, you want to use | |
1152 | 352 another 'makeprg' for it, without changing the value used for the C source |
10 | 353 files. You use this command: > |
7 | 354 :setlocal makeprg=perlmake |
355 You can switch back to using the global value by making the local value empty: > | |
356 :setlocal makeprg= | |
357 This only works for a string option. For a boolean option you need to use the | |
358 "<" flag, like this: > | |
359 :setlocal autoread< | |
360 Note that for non-boolean options using "<" copies the global value to the | |
361 local value, it doesn't switch back to using the global value (that matters | |
809 | 362 when the global value changes later). You can also use: > |
363 :set path< | |
364 This will make the local value of 'path' empty, so that the global value is | |
365 used. Thus it does the same as: > | |
366 :setlocal path= | |
7 | 367 Note: In the future more global options can be made global-local. Using |
368 ":setlocal" on a global option might work differently then. | |
369 | |
370 | |
371 Setting the filetype | |
372 | |
11473 | 373 :setf[iletype] [FALLBACK] {filetype} *:setf* *:setfiletype* |
7 | 374 Set the 'filetype' option to {filetype}, but only if |
375 not done yet in a sequence of (nested) autocommands. | |
376 This is short for: > | |
377 :if !did_filetype() | |
378 : setlocal filetype={filetype} | |
379 :endif | |
380 < This command is used in a filetype.vim file to avoid | |
381 setting the 'filetype' option twice, causing different | |
382 settings and syntax files to be loaded. | |
11473 | 383 |
384 When the optional FALLBACK argument is present, a | |
385 later :setfiletype command will override the | |
386 'filetype'. This is to used for filetype detections | |
387 that are just a guess. |did_filetype()| will return | |
388 false after this command. | |

407 | |
408 *$HOME* | |
409 Using "~" is like using "$HOME", but it is only recognized at the start of an | |
410 option and after a space or comma. | |
411 | |
412 On Unix systems "~user" can be used too. It is replaced by the home directory | |
413 of user "user". Example: > | |
414 :set path=~mool/include,/usr/include,. | |
415 | |
416 On Unix systems the form "${HOME}" can be used too. The name between {} can | |
417 contain non-id characters then. Note that if you want to use this for the | |
418 "gf" command, you need to add the '{' and '}' characters to 'isfname'. | |
419 | |
3224 | 420 On MS-Windows, if $HOME is not defined as an environment variable, then |
421 at runtime Vim will set it to the expansion of $HOMEDRIVE$HOMEPATH. | |
422 | |
7 | 423 NOTE: expanding environment variables and "~/" is only done with the ":set" |
424 command, not when assigning a value to an option with ":let". | |
425 | |
426 | |
427 Note the maximum length of an expanded option is limited. How much depends on | |
428 the system, mostly it is something like 256 or 1024 characters. | |
429 | |
430 *:fix* *:fixdel* | |
431 :fix[del] Set the value of 't_kD': | |
432 't_kb' is 't_kD' becomes ~ | |

434 not CTRL-? CTRL-? | |
435 | |
436 (CTRL-? is 0177 octal, 0x7f hex) {not in Vi} | |
437 | |
438 If your delete key terminal code is wrong, but the | |
439 code for backspace is alright, you can put this in | |
440 your .vimrc: > | |
441 :fixdel | |
442 < This works no matter what the actual code for | |
443 backspace is. | |
444 | |
445 If the backspace key terminal code is wrong you can | |
446 use this: > | |
447 :if &term == "termname" | |
448 : set t_kb=^V<BS> | |
449 : fixdel | |
450 :endif | |
451 < Where "^V" is CTRL-V and "<BS>" is the backspace key | |
10 | 452 (don't type four characters!). Replace "termname" |
7 | 453 with your terminal name. |
454 | |
455 If your <Delete> key sends a strange key sequence (not | |
456 CTRL-? or CTRL-H) you cannot use ":fixdel". Then use: > | |
457 :if &term == "termname" | |
458 : set t_kD=^V<Delete> | |
459 :endif | |
460 < Where "^V" is CTRL-V and "<Delete>" is the delete key | |
461 (don't type eight characters!). Replace "termname" | |
462 with your terminal name. | |
463 | |
464 *Linux-backspace* | |
465 Note about Linux: By default the backspace key | |
466 produces CTRL-?, which is wrong. You can fix it by | |
467 putting this line in your rc.local: > | |
468 echo "keycode 14 = BackSpace" | loadkeys | |
469 < | |
470 *NetBSD-backspace* | |
471 Note about NetBSD: If your backspace doesn't produce | |
472 the right code, try this: > | |
473 xmodmap -e "keycode 22 = BackSpace" | |
474 < If this works, add this in your .Xmodmap file: > | |
475 keysym 22 = BackSpace | |
476 < You need to restart for this to take effect. | |

478 ============================================================================== | |
479 2. Automatically setting options *auto-setting* | |
480 | |
481 Besides changing options with the ":set" command, there are three alternatives | |
482 to set options automatically for one or more files: | |
483 | |
484 1. When starting Vim initializations are read from various places. See | |
485 |initialization|. Most of them are performed for all editing sessions, | |
486 and some of them depend on the directory where Vim is started. | |
487 You can create an initialization file with |:mkvimrc|, |:mkview| and | |
488 |:mksession|. | |
489 2. If you start editing a new file, the automatic commands are executed. | |
490 This can be used to set options for files matching a particular pattern and | |
491 many other things. See |autocommand|. | |
492 3. If you start editing a new file, and the 'modeline' option is on, a | |
493 number of lines at the beginning and end of the file are checked for | |
494 modelines. This is explained here. | |
495 | |
496 *modeline* *vim:* *vi:* *ex:* *E520* | |
497 There are two forms of modelines. The first form: | |

535 could be short for "example:"). |
7 | 536 |
537 *modeline-local* | |
538 The options are set like with ":setlocal": The new value only applies to the | |
11 | 539 buffer and window that contain the file. Although it's possible to set global |
540 options from a modeline, this is unusual. If you have two windows open and | |
541 the files in it set the same global option to a different value, the result | |
542 depends on which one was opened last. | |
7 | 543 |
23 | 544 When editing a file that was already loaded, only the window-local options |
545 from the modeline are used. Thus if you manually changed a buffer-local | |
546 option after opening the file, it won't be changed if you edit the same buffer | |
547 in another window. But window-local options will be set. | |
548 | |
7 | 549 *modeline-version* |
550 If the modeline is only to be used for some versions of Vim, the version | |

551 number can be specified where "vim:" or "Vim:" is used: |
7 | 552 vim{vers}: version {vers} or later |
553 vim<{vers}: version before {vers} | |
554 vim={vers}: version {vers} | |
555 vim>{vers}: version after {vers} | |
6647 | 556 {vers} is 700 for Vim 7.0 (hundred times the major version plus minor). |
557 For example, to use a modeline only for Vim 7.0: | |
558 /* vim700: set foldmethod=marker */ ~ | |
559 To use a modeline for Vim after version 7.2: | |
560 /* vim>702: set cole=2: */ ~ | |
7 | 561 There can be no blanks between "vim" and the ":". |
562 | |
563 | |
564 The number of lines that are checked can be set with the 'modelines' option. | |
565 If 'modeline' is off or 'modelines' is 0 no lines are checked. | |
566 | |
567 Note that for the first form all of the rest of the line is used, thus a line | |
782 | 568 like: |
569 /* vi:ts=4: */ ~ | |
570 will give an error message for the trailing "*/". This line is OK: | |
571 /* vi:set ts=4: */ ~ | |
7 | 572 |
573 If an error is detected the rest of the line is skipped. | |
574 | |
575 If you want to include a ':' in a set command precede it with a '\'. The | |
782 | 576 backslash in front of the ':' will be removed. Example: |
577 /* vi:set dir=c\:\tmp: */ ~ | |
7 | 578 This sets the 'dir' option to "c:\tmp". Only a single backslash before the |
579 ':' is removed. Thus to include "\:" you have to specify "\\:". | |
580 | |
581 No other commands than "set" are supported, for security reasons (somebody | |
1111 | 582 might create a Trojan horse text file with modelines). And not all options |
583 can be set. For some options a flag is set, so that when it's used the | |
1152 | 584 |sandbox| is effective. Still, there is always a small risk that a modeline |
1111 | 585 causes trouble. E.g., when some joker sets 'textwidth' to 5 all your lines |
586 are wrapped unexpectedly. So disable modelines before editing untrusted text. | |
587 The mail ftplugin does this, for example. | |
7 | 588 |
589 Hint: If you would like to do something else than setting an option, you could | |
590 define an autocommand that checks the file for a specific string. For | |
591 example: > | |
592 au BufReadPost * if getline(1) =~ "VAR" | call SetVar() | endif | |
593 And define a function SetVar() that does something with the line containing | |
594 "VAR". | |
595 | |
596 ============================================================================== | |
597 3. Options summary *option-summary* | |
598 | |
599 In the list below all the options are mentioned with their full name and with | |
600 an abbreviation if there is one. Both forms may be used. | |
601 | |
602 In this document when a boolean option is "set" that means that ":set option" | |
603 is entered. When an option is "reset", ":set nooption" is used. | |
604 | |
605 For some options there are two default values: The "Vim default", which is | |
606 used when 'compatible' is not set, and the "Vi default", which is used when | |
607 'compatible' is set. | |
608 | |
609 Most options are the same in all windows and buffers. There are a few that | |
10 | 610 are specific to how the text is presented in a window. These can be set to a |
7 | 611 different value in each window. For example the 'list' option can be set in |
612 one window and reset in another for the same text, giving both types of view | |
613 at the same time. There are a few options that are specific to a certain | |
614 file. These can have a different value for each file or buffer. For example | |
615 the 'textwidth' option can be 78 for a normal text file and 0 for a C | |
616 program. | |
617 | |
618 global one option for all buffers and windows | |
619 local to window each window has its own copy of this option | |
620 local to buffer each buffer has its own copy of this option | |
621 | |
622 When creating a new window the option values from the currently active window | |
623 are used as a default value for the window-specific options. For the | |
624 buffer-specific options this depends on the 's' and 'S' flags in the | |
625 'cpoptions' option. If 's' is included (which is the default) the values for | |
626 buffer options are copied from the currently active buffer when a buffer is | |
10 | 627 first entered. If 'S' is present the options are copied each time the buffer |
628 is entered, this is almost like having global options. If 's' and 'S' are not | |
7 | 629 present, the options are copied from the currently active buffer when the |
630 buffer is created. | |
631 | |
519 | 632 Hidden options *hidden-options* |
633 | |
634 Not all options are supported in all versions. This depends on the supported | |
635 features and sometimes on the system. A remark about this is in curly braces | |
636 below. When an option is not supported it may still be set without getting an | |
637 error, this is called a hidden option. You can't get the value of a hidden | |
638 option though, it is not stored. | |
639 | |
640 To test if option "foo" can be used with ":set" use something like this: > | |
641 if exists('&foo') | |
642 This also returns true for a hidden option. To test if option "foo" is really | |
643 supported use something like this: > | |
644 if exists('+foo') | |
645 < | |
7 | 646 *E355* |
647 A jump table for the options with a short description can be found at |Q_op|. | |
648 | |
649 *'aleph'* *'al'* *aleph* *Aleph* | |
650 'aleph' 'al' number (default 128 for MS-DOS, 224 otherwise) | |
651 global | |
652 {not in Vi} | |
653 {only available when compiled with the |+rightleft| | |
654 feature} | |
655 The ASCII code for the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. The | |
656 routine that maps the keyboard in Hebrew mode, both in Insert mode | |
657 (when hkmap is set) and on the command-line (when hitting CTRL-_) | |
658 outputs the Hebrew characters in the range [aleph..aleph+26]. | |
659 aleph=128 applies to PC code, and aleph=224 applies to ISO 8859-8. | |
660 See |rileft.txt|. | |
661 | |
662 *'allowrevins'* *'ari'* *'noallowrevins'* *'noari'* | |
663 'allowrevins' 'ari' boolean (default off) | |
664 global | |
665 {not in Vi} | |
666 {only available when compiled with the |+rightleft| | |
667 feature} | |
668 Allow CTRL-_ in Insert and Command-line mode. This is default off, to | |
669 avoid that users that accidentally type CTRL-_ instead of SHIFT-_ get | |
670 into reverse Insert mode, and don't know how to get out. See | |
671 'revins'. | |
672 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |
673 | |
674 *'altkeymap'* *'akm'* *'noaltkeymap'* *'noakm'* | |
675 'altkeymap' 'akm' boolean (default off) | |
676 global | |
677 {not in Vi} | |
678 {only available when compiled with the |+farsi| | |
679 feature} | |

698 | |
699 There are currently two possible values: | |

7 | 701 expected by most users. |
702 "double": Use twice the width of ASCII characters. | |

705 contains a character that would be double width. |
7 | 706 |
707 There are a number of CJK fonts for which the width of glyphs for | |
708 those characters are solely based on how many octets they take in | |
709 legacy/traditional CJK encodings. In those encodings, Euro, | |
710 Registered sign, Greek/Cyrillic letters are represented by two octets, | |
233 | 711 therefore those fonts have "wide" glyphs for them. This is also |
7 | 712 true of some line drawing characters used to make tables in text |
233 | 713 file. Therefore, when a CJK font is used for GUI Vim or |
7 | 714 Vim is running inside a terminal (emulators) that uses a CJK font |
715 (or Vim is run inside an xterm invoked with "-cjkwidth" option.), | |
716 this option should be set to "double" to match the width perceived | |
717 by Vim with the width of glyphs in the font. Perhaps it also has | |
718 to be set to "double" under CJK Windows 9x/ME or Windows 2k/XP | |
719 when the system locale is set to one of CJK locales. See Unicode | |
720 Standard Annex #11 (http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr11). | |
721 | |
4229 | 722 Vim may set this option automatically at startup time when Vim is |

732 This option only has an effect in the GUI version of Vim on Mac OS X | |
733 v10.2 or later. When on, Vim will use smooth ("antialiased") fonts, | |
734 which can be easier to read at certain sizes on certain displays. | |
735 Setting this option can sometimes cause problems if 'guifont' is set | |
736 to its default (empty string). | |

746 open a file, switch buffers, delete a buffer or open/close a window. | |
747 It will change to the directory containing the file which was opened | |
748 or selected. | |

755 {only available when compiled with the |+arabic| | |

757 This option can be set to start editing Arabic text. | |
758 Setting this option will: | |
759 - Set the 'rightleft' option, unless 'termbidi' is set. | |
760 - Set the 'arabicshape' option, unless 'termbidi' is set. | |
761 - Set the 'keymap' option to "arabic"; in Insert mode CTRL-^ toggles | |
762 between typing English and Arabic key mapping. | |
763 - Set the 'delcombine' option | |
764 Note that 'encoding' must be "utf-8" for working with Arabic text. | |
765 | |
766 Resetting this option will: | |
767 - Reset the 'rightleft' option. | |
768 - Disable the use of 'keymap' (without changing its value). | |
769 Note that 'arabicshape' and 'delcombine' are not reset (it is a global | |
3557 | 770 option). |

786 within a word (initial, medial, final and stand-alone). | |
787 b) the enabling of the ability to compose characters | |
788 c) the enabling of the required combining of some characters | |

802 to another line has the same effect, unless the 'I' flag is included | |
803 in 'cpoptions'. | |
10 | 804 When autoindent is on, formatting (with the "gq" command or when you |

816 'autoread' 'ar' boolean (default off) | |

818 {not in Vi} | |

820 it has not been changed inside of Vim, automatically read it again. | |
821 When the file has been deleted this is not done. |timestamp| | |

840 Like 'autowrite', but also used for commands ":edit", ":enew", ":quit", | |
841 ":qall", ":exit", ":xit", ":recover" and closing the Vim window. | |
842 Setting this option also implies that Vim behaves like 'autowrite' has | |
843 been set. | |

845 *'background'* *'bg'* | |
2826 | 846 'background' 'bg' string (default "dark" or "light", see below) |
7 | 847 global |
848 {not in Vi} | |
849 When set to "dark", Vim will try to use colors that look good on a | |
850 dark background. When set to "light", Vim will try to use colors that | |
851 look good on a light background. Any other value is illegal. | |
852 Vim tries to set the default value according to the terminal used. | |
853 This will not always be correct. | |
854 Setting this option does not change the background color, it tells Vim | |
855 what the background color looks like. For changing the background | |
856 color, see |:hi-normal|. | |
857 | |
858 When 'background' is set Vim will adjust the default color groups for | |
10 | 859 the new value. But the colors used for syntax highlighting will not |
1621 | 860 change. *g:colors_name* |

865 be undone. First delete the "g:colors_name" variable when needed. |
7 | 866 |
867 When setting 'background' to the default value with: > | |
868 :set background& | |
869 < Vim will guess the value. In the GUI this should work correctly, | |
870 in other cases Vim might not be able to guess the right value. | |
871 | |
11442 | 872 When the t_BG option is set, Vim will use it to request the background |
873 color from the terminal. If the returned RGB value is dark/light and | |
874 'background' is not dark/light, 'background' will be set and the | |
875 screen is redrawn. This may have side effects, make t_BG empty in | |
876 your .vimrc if you suspect this problem. | |
877 | |
7 | 878 When starting the GUI, the default value for 'background' will be |
879 "light". When the value is not set in the .gvimrc, and Vim detects | |
880 that the background is actually quite dark, 'background' is set to | |
881 "dark". But this happens only AFTER the .gvimrc file has been read | |
882 (because the window needs to be opened to find the actual background | |
883 color). To get around this, force the GUI window to be opened by | |
884 putting a ":gui" command in the .gvimrc file, before where the value | |
885 of 'background' is used (e.g., before ":syntax on"). | |
2826 | 886 |
887 For MS-DOS, Windows and OS/2 the default is "dark". | |
888 For other systems "dark" is used when 'term' is "linux", | |
889 "screen.linux", "cygwin" or "putty", or $COLORFGBG suggests a dark | |
890 background. Otherwise the default is "light". | |
891 | |
7 | 892 Normally this option would be set in the .vimrc file. Possibly |
893 depending on the terminal name. Example: > | |
894 :if &term == "pcterm" | |
895 : set background=dark | |
896 :endif | |
897 < When this option is set, the default settings for the highlight groups | |
898 will change. To use other settings, place ":highlight" commands AFTER | |
899 the setting of the 'background' option. | |
900 This option is also used in the "$VIMRUNTIME/syntax/syntax.vim" file | |
901 to select the colors for syntax highlighting. After changing this | |
902 option, you must load syntax.vim again to see the result. This can be | |
903 done with ":syntax on". | |

910 Influences the working of <BS>, <Del>, CTRL-W and CTRL-U in Insert | |
911 mode. This is a list of items, separated by commas. Each item allows | |
912 a way to backspace over something: | |
913 value effect ~ | |
914 indent allow backspacing over autoindent | |
915 eol allow backspacing over line breaks (join lines) | |
916 start allow backspacing over the start of insert; CTRL-W and CTRL-U | |
917 stop once at the start of insert. | |
918 | |
919 When the value is empty, Vi compatible backspacing is used. | |
920 | |
921 For backwards compatibility with version 5.4 and earlier: | |
922 value effect ~ | |
923 0 same as ":set backspace=" (Vi compatible) | |
924 1 same as ":set backspace=indent,eol" | |
925 2 same as ":set backspace=indent,eol,start" | |
926 | |
927 See |:fixdel| if your <BS> or <Del> key does not do what you want. | |
928 NOTE: This option is set to "" when 'compatible' is set. | |

931 'backup' 'bk' boolean (default off) | |
932 global | |
933 {not in Vi} | |
934 Make a backup before overwriting a file. Leave it around after the | |
935 file has been successfully written. If you do not want to keep the | |
936 backup file, but you do want a backup while the file is being | |
937 written, reset this option and set the 'writebackup' option (this is | |
938 the default). If you do not want a backup file at all reset both | |
10 | 939 options (use this if your file system is almost full). See the |
7 | 940 |backup-table| for more explanations. |
941 When the 'backupskip' pattern matches, a backup is not made anyway. | |
942 When 'patchmode' is set, the backup may be renamed to become the | |
943 oldest version of a file. | |
944 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |
945 | |
946 *'backupcopy'* *'bkc'* | |
947 'backupcopy' 'bkc' string (Vi default for Unix: "yes", otherwise: "auto") | |
6243 | 948 global or local to buffer |global-local| |
7 | 949 {not in Vi} |
950 When writing a file and a backup is made, this option tells how it's | |
951 done. This is a comma separated list of words. | |
952 | |
953 The main values are: | |
954 "yes" make a copy of the file and overwrite the original one | |
955 "no" rename the file and write a new one | |
956 "auto" one of the previous, what works best | |
957 | |
958 Extra values that can be combined with the ones above are: | |
959 "breaksymlink" always break symlinks when writing | |
960 "breakhardlink" always break hardlinks when writing | |
961 | |
962 Making a copy and overwriting the original file: | |
963 - Takes extra time to copy the file. | |
964 + When the file has special attributes, is a (hard/symbolic) link or | |
965 has a resource fork, all this is preserved. | |
966 - When the file is a link the backup will have the name of the link, | |
967 not of the real file. | |
968 | |
969 Renaming the file and writing a new one: | |
970 + It's fast. | |
971 - Sometimes not all attributes of the file can be copied to the new | |
972 file. | |
973 - When the file is a link the new file will not be a link. | |
974 | |
975 The "auto" value is the middle way: When Vim sees that renaming file | |
976 is possible without side effects (the attributes can be passed on and | |
1152 | 977 the file is not a link) that is used. When problems are expected, a |
978 copy will be made. | |
7 | 979 |
980 The "breaksymlink" and "breakhardlink" values can be used in | |
981 combination with any of "yes", "no" and "auto". When included, they | |
982 force Vim to always break either symbolic or hard links by doing | |
983 exactly what the "no" option does, renaming the original file to | |
984 become the backup and writing a new file in its place. This can be | |
985 useful for example in source trees where all the files are symbolic or | |
986 hard links and any changes should stay in the local source tree, not | |
987 be propagated back to the original source. | |
988 *crontab* | |
989 One situation where "no" and "auto" will cause problems: A program | |
990 that opens a file, invokes Vim to edit that file, and then tests if | |
991 the open file was changed (through the file descriptor) will check the | |
10 | 992 backup file instead of the newly created file. "crontab -e" is an |
7 | 993 example. |
994 | |
995 When a copy is made, the original file is truncated and then filled | |
996 with the new text. This means that protection bits, owner and | |
997 symbolic links of the original file are unmodified. The backup file | |
10 | 998 however, is a new file, owned by the user who edited the file. The |
7 | 999 group of the backup is set to the group of the original file. If this |
1000 fails, the protection bits for the group are made the same as for | |
1001 others. | |
1002 | |
1003 When the file is renamed this is the other way around: The backup has | |
1004 the same attributes of the original file, and the newly written file | |
1005 is owned by the current user. When the file was a (hard/symbolic) | |
1006 link, the new file will not! That's why the "auto" value doesn't | |
1007 rename when the file is a link. The owner and group of the newly | |
1008 written file will be set to the same ones as the original file, but | |
1009 the system may refuse to do this. In that case the "auto" value will | |
1010 again not rename the file. | |
1011 | |
11160 | 1012 NOTE: This option is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is |
1013 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |
1014 | |
7 | 1015 *'backupdir'* *'bdir'* |

1025 - Empty means that no backup file will be created ('patchmode' is |

1027 - A directory "." means to put the backup file in the same directory | |
1028 as the edited file. | |
33 | 1029 - A directory starting with "./" (or ".\" for MS-DOS et al.) means to |
7 | 1030 put the backup file relative to where the edited file is. The |
1031 leading "." is replaced with the path name of the edited file. | |
1032 ("." inside a directory name has no special meaning). | |

1041 :set bdir=c:\\tmp,\ dir\\,with\\,commas,\\\ dir\ with\ spaces | |
1042 < - For backwards compatibility with Vim version 3.0 a '>' at the start | |
1043 of the option is removed. | |
1044 See also 'backup' and 'writebackup' options. | |
1045 If you want to hide your backup files on Unix, consider this value: > | |
1046 :set backupdir=./.backup,~/.backup,.,/tmp | |
1047 < You must create a ".backup" directory in each directory and in your | |
1048 home directory for this to work properly. | |
1049 The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
1050 directories from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
1051 uses another default. | |
1052 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
1053 security reasons. | |
1054 | |
1055 *'backupext'* *'bex'* *E589* | |
1056 'backupext' 'bex' string (default "~", for VMS: "_") | |
1057 global | |
1058 {not in Vi} | |
1059 String which is appended to a file name to make the name of the | |
1060 backup file. The default is quite unusual, because this avoids | |
1061 accidentally overwriting existing files with a backup file. You might | |
1062 prefer using ".bak", but make sure that you don't have files with | |
1063 ".bak" that you want to keep. | |
36 | 1064 Only normal file name characters can be used, "/\*?[|<>" are illegal. |
7 | 1065 |
26 | 1066 If you like to keep a lot of backups, you could use a BufWritePre |
1067 autocommand to change 'backupext' just before writing the file to | |
1068 include a timestamp. > | |
1069 :au BufWritePre * let &bex = '-' . strftime("%Y%b%d%X") . '~' | |
1070 < Use 'backupdir' to put the backup in a different directory. | |
1071 | |
7 | 1072 *'backupskip'* *'bsk'* |
1073 'backupskip' 'bsk' string (default: "/tmp/*,$TMPDIR/*,$TMP/*,$TEMP/*") | |
1074 global | |
1075 {not in Vi} | |
1076 {not available when compiled without the |+wildignore| | |
1077 feature} | |
1078 A list of file patterns. When one of the patterns matches with the | |
1079 name of the file which is written, no backup file is created. Both | |
1080 the specified file name and the full path name of the file are used. | |
1081 The pattern is used like with |:autocmd|, see |autocmd-patterns|. | |
1082 Watch out for special characters, see |option-backslash|. | |
1083 When $TMPDIR, $TMP or $TEMP is not defined, it is not used for the | |
233 | 1084 default value. "/tmp/*" is only used for Unix. |
1152 | 1085 |
3513 | 1086 WARNING: Not having a backup file means that when Vim fails to write |
1087 your buffer correctly and then, for whatever reason, Vim exits, you | |
1088 lose both the original file and what you were writing. Only disable | |
1089 backups if you don't care about losing the file. | |
1090 | |
1152 | 1091 Note that environment variables are not expanded. If you want to use |
1092 $HOME you must expand it explicitly, e.g.: > | |

1200 be rung. For Normal mode and Ex commands, the bell is often rung to | |

1205 'binary' 'bin' boolean (default off) | |
1206 local to buffer | |
1207 {not in Vi} | |
1208 This option should be set before editing a binary file. You can also | |
1209 use the |-b| Vim argument. When this option is switched on a few | |
1210 options will be changed (also when it already was on): | |
1211 'textwidth' will be set to 0 | |
1212 'wrapmargin' will be set to 0 | |
1213 'modeline' will be off | |
1214 'expandtab' will be off | |
1215 Also, 'fileformat' and 'fileformats' options will not be used, the | |
1216 file is read and written like 'fileformat' was "unix" (a single <NL> | |
1217 separates lines). | |
1218 The 'fileencoding' and 'fileencodings' options will not be used, the | |
1219 file is read without conversion. | |
1220 NOTE: When you start editing a(nother) file while the 'bin' option is | |
1221 on, settings from autocommands may change the settings again (e.g., | |
1222 'textwidth'), causing trouble when editing. You might want to set | |
1223 'bin' again when the file has been loaded. | |
1224 The previous values of these options are remembered and restored when | |
1225 'bin' is switched from on to off. Each buffer has its own set of | |
1226 saved option values. | |
1227 To edit a file with 'binary' set you can use the |++bin| argument. | |
1228 This avoids you have to do ":set bin", which would have effect for all | |
1229 files you edit. | |
1230 When writing a file the <EOL> for the last line is only written if | |
1231 there was one in the original file (normally Vim appends an <EOL> to | |
1232 the last line if there is none; this would make the file longer). See | |
1233 the 'endofline' option. | |

1243 local to buffer | |
1244 {not in Vi} | |
1245 {only available when compiled with the |+multi_byte| | |
1246 feature} | |
1247 When writing a file and the following conditions are met, a BOM (Byte | |
1248 Order Mark) is prepended to the file: | |
1249 - this option is on | |
1250 - the 'binary' option is off | |
1251 - 'fileencoding' is "utf-8", "ucs-2", "ucs-4" or one of the little/big | |
1252 endian variants. | |
1253 Some applications use the BOM to recognize the encoding of the file. | |
1254 Often used for UCS-2 files on MS-Windows. For other applications it | |
1255 causes trouble, for example: "cat file1 file2" makes the BOM of file2 | |

7 | 1257 When Vim reads a file and 'fileencodings' starts with "ucs-bom", a |
1258 check for the presence of the BOM is done and 'bomb' set accordingly. | |
1259 Unless 'binary' is set, it is removed from the first line, so that you | |
1260 don't see it when editing. When you don't change the options, the BOM | |
1261 will be restored when writing the file. | |

6026 | 1291 items and must be separated by a comma: |
6009 | 1292 min:{n} Minimum text width that will be kept after |
1293 applying 'breakindent', even if the resulting | |
1294 text should normally be narrower. This prevents | |
1295 text indented almost to the right window border | |
1296 occupying lot of vertical space when broken. | |
6026 | 1297 shift:{n} After applying 'breakindent', the wrapped line's |
1298 beginning will be shifted by the given number of | |
1299 characters. It permits dynamic French paragraph | |
6009 | 1300 indentation (negative) or emphasizing the line |
1301 continuation (positive). | |

1320 local to buffer | |
1321 {not in Vi} | |
1322 {not available when compiled without the |+quickfix| | |
1323 feature} | |
1324 This option specifies what happens when a buffer is no longer | |
1325 displayed in a window: | |
1326 <empty> follow the global 'hidden' option | |
1327 hide hide the buffer (don't unload it), also when 'hidden' | |
1328 is not set | |
1329 unload unload the buffer, also when 'hidden' is set or using | |
1330 |:hide| | |
1331 delete delete the buffer from the buffer list, also when | |
1332 'hidden' is set or using |:hide|, like using | |
1333 |:bdelete| | |
1334 wipe wipe out the buffer from the buffer list, also when | |
1335 'hidden' is set or using |:hide|, like using | |
1336 |:bwipeout| | |
1337 | |
82 | 1338 CAREFUL: when "unload", "delete" or "wipe" is used changes in a buffer |
3224 | 1339 are lost without a warning. Also, these values may break autocommands |
1340 that switch between buffers temporarily. | |
7 | 1341 This option is used together with 'buftype' and 'swapfile' to specify |
1342 special kinds of buffers. See |special-buffers|. | |
1343 | |
1344 *'buflisted'* *'bl'* *'nobuflisted'* *'nobl'* *E85* | |
1345 'buflisted' 'bl' boolean (default: on) | |

1347 {not in Vi} | |
1348 When this option is set, the buffer shows up in the buffer list. If | |
1349 it is reset it is not used for ":bnext", "ls", the Buffers menu, etc. | |
1350 This option is reset by Vim for buffers that are only used to remember | |
1351 a file name or marks. Vim sets it when starting to edit a buffer. | |
1352 But not when moving to a buffer with ":buffer". | |
1353 | |
1354 *'buftype'* *'bt'* *E382* | |
1355 'buftype' 'bt' string (default: "") | |
1356 local to buffer | |
1357 {not in Vi} | |
1358 {not available when compiled without the |+quickfix| | |
1359 feature} | |
1360 The value of this option specifies the type of a buffer: | |
1361 <empty> normal buffer | |
1362 nofile buffer which is not related to a file and will not be | |
1363 written | |
1364 nowrite buffer which will not be written | |
17 | 1365 acwrite buffer which will always be written with BufWriteCmd |
856 | 1366 autocommands. {not available when compiled without the |
17 | 1367 |+autocmd| feature} |
7 | 1368 quickfix quickfix buffer, contains list of errors |:cwindow| |
648 | 1369 or list of locations |:lwindow| |
7 | 1370 help help buffer (you are not supposed to set this |
1371 manually) | |
1372 | |
1373 This option is used together with 'bufhidden' and 'swapfile' to | |
1374 specify special kinds of buffers. See |special-buffers|. | |
1375 | |
1376 Be careful with changing this option, it can have many side effects! | |
1377 | |
648 | 1378 A "quickfix" buffer is only used for the error list and the location |
1379 list. This value is set by the |:cwindow| and |:lwindow| commands and | |
1380 you are not supposed to change it. | |
7 | 1381 |
1382 "nofile" and "nowrite" buffers are similar: | |
1383 both: The buffer is not to be written to disk, ":w" doesn't | |
1384 work (":w filename" does work though). | |
1385 both: The buffer is never considered to be |'modified'|. | |
1386 There is no warning when the changes will be lost, for | |
1387 example when you quit Vim. | |
1388 both: A swap file is only created when using too much memory | |
1389 (when 'swapfile' has been reset there is never a swap | |
1390 file). | |
1391 nofile only: The buffer name is fixed, it is not handled like a | |
1392 file name. It is not modified in response to a |:cd| | |
1393 command. | |
6647 | 1394 both: When using ":e bufname" and already editing "bufname" |
1395 the buffer is made empty and autocommands are | |
1396 triggered as usual for |:edit|. | |
17 | 1397 *E676* |
1398 "acwrite" implies that the buffer name is not related to a file, like | |
1399 "nofile", but it will be written. Thus, in contrast to "nofile" and | |
1400 "nowrite", ":w" does work and a modified buffer can't be abandoned | |
1401 without saving. For writing there must be matching |BufWriteCmd|, | |
1402 |FileWriteCmd| or |FileAppendCmd| autocommands. | |

804 | 1408 {only available when compiled with the |+multi_byte| |
1409 feature} | |
7 | 1410 Specifies details about changing the case of letters. It may contain |
1411 these words, separated by a comma: | |
1412 internal Use internal case mapping functions, the current | |
1413 locale does not change the case mapping. This only | |
493 | 1414 matters when 'encoding' is a Unicode encoding, |
1415 "latin1" or "iso-8859-15". When "internal" is | |
1416 omitted, the towupper() and towlower() system library | |
1417 functions are used when available. | |

1422 *'cdpath'* *'cd'* *E344* *E346* | |
1423 'cdpath' 'cd' string (default: equivalent to $CDPATH or ",,") | |
1424 global | |
1425 {not in Vi} | |
1426 {not available when compiled without the | |
1427 |+file_in_path| feature} | |
1428 This is a list of directories which will be searched when using the | |
1429 |:cd| and |:lcd| commands, provided that the directory being searched | |
1668 | 1430 for has a relative path, not an absolute part starting with "/", "./" |
1431 or "../", the 'cdpath' option is not used then. | |
7 | 1432 The 'cdpath' option's value has the same form and semantics as |
1433 |'path'|. Also see |file-searching|. | |
1434 The default value is taken from $CDPATH, with a "," prepended to look | |
1435 in the current directory first. | |
1436 If the default value taken from $CDPATH is not what you want, include | |
1437 a modified version of the following command in your vimrc file to | |
1438 override it: > | |
1439 :let &cdpath = ',' . substitute(substitute($CDPATH, '[, ]', '\\\0', 'g'), ':', ',', 'g') | |
1440 < This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
1441 security reasons. | |
1442 (parts of 'cdpath' can be passed to the shell to expand file names). | |

1448 {not available when compiled without the |+vertsplit| | |

1450 The key used in Command-line Mode to open the command-line window. | |
1451 The default is CTRL-F when 'compatible' is off. | |
1452 Only non-printable keys are allowed. | |
1453 The key can be specified as a single character, but it is difficult to | |
1454 type. The preferred way is to use the <> notation. Examples: > | |

1466 and |+eval| features} |
7 | 1467 {not in Vi} |
1468 An expression that is used for character encoding conversion. It is | |
1469 evaluated when a file that is to be read or has been written has a | |
1470 different encoding from what is desired. | |
1471 'charconvert' is not used when the internal iconv() function is | |
1472 supported and is able to do the conversion. Using iconv() is | |
1473 preferred, because it is much faster. | |
1474 'charconvert' is not used when reading stdin |--|, because there is no | |
1475 file to convert from. You will have to save the text in a file first. | |
1476 The expression must return zero or an empty string for success, | |
1477 non-zero for failure. | |
1478 The possible encoding names encountered are in 'encoding'. | |
1479 Additionally, names given in 'fileencodings' and 'fileencoding' are | |
1480 used. | |
1481 Conversion between "latin1", "unicode", "ucs-2", "ucs-4" and "utf-8" | |
1482 is done internally by Vim, 'charconvert' is not used for this. | |
1483 'charconvert' is also used to convert the viminfo file, if the 'c' | |
1484 flag is present in 'viminfo'. Also used for Unicode conversion. | |
1485 Example: > | |
1486 set charconvert=CharConvert() | |
1487 fun CharConvert() | |
1488 system("recode " | |
1489 \ . v:charconvert_from . ".." . v:charconvert_to | |
1490 \ . " <" . v:fname_in . " >" v:fname_out) | |
1491 return v:shell_error | |
1492 endfun | |
1493 < The related Vim variables are: | |
1494 v:charconvert_from name of the current encoding | |
1495 v:charconvert_to name of the desired encoding | |
1496 v:fname_in name of the input file | |
1497 v:fname_out name of the output file | |
1498 Note that v:fname_in and v:fname_out will never be the same. | |
1499 Note that v:charconvert_from and v:charconvert_to may be different | |
1500 from 'encoding'. Vim internally uses UTF-8 instead of UCS-2 or UCS-4. | |
1501 Encryption is not done by Vim when using 'charconvert'. If you want | |
1502 to encrypt the file after conversion, 'charconvert' should take care | |
1503 of this. | |
1504 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
1505 security reasons. | |
1506 | |
1507 *'cindent'* *'cin'* *'nocindent'* *'nocin'* | |
1508 'cindent' 'cin' boolean (default off) | |
1509 local to buffer | |
1510 {not in Vi} | |
1511 {not available when compiled without the |+cindent| | |
1512 feature} | |
1621 | 1513 Enables automatic C program indenting. See 'cinkeys' to set the keys |
7 | 1514 that trigger reindenting in insert mode and 'cinoptions' to set your |
1515 preferred indent style. | |
1516 If 'indentexpr' is not empty, it overrules 'cindent'. | |
1517 If 'lisp' is not on and both 'indentexpr' and 'equalprg' are empty, | |
1518 the "=" operator indents using this algorithm rather than calling an | |
1519 external program. | |
1520 See |C-indenting|. | |
1521 When you don't like the way 'cindent' works, try the 'smartindent' | |
1522 option or 'indentexpr'. | |
1523 This option is not used when 'paste' is set. | |
1524 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |
1525 | |
1526 *'cinkeys'* *'cink'* | |
1527 'cinkeys' 'cink' string (default "0{,0},0),:,0#,!^F,o,O,e") | |
1528 local to buffer | |
1529 {not in Vi} | |
1530 {not available when compiled without the |+cindent| | |
1531 feature} | |
1532 A list of keys that, when typed in Insert mode, cause reindenting of | |
1533 the current line. Only used if 'cindent' is on and 'indentexpr' is | |
1534 empty. | |
1535 For the format of this option see |cinkeys-format|. | |
1536 See |C-indenting|. | |
1537 | |
1538 *'cinoptions'* *'cino'* | |
1539 'cinoptions' 'cino' string (default "") | |
1540 local to buffer | |
1541 {not in Vi} | |
1542 {not available when compiled without the |+cindent| | |
1543 feature} | |
1544 The 'cinoptions' affect the way 'cindent' reindents lines in a C | |
1545 program. See |cinoptions-values| for the values of this option, and | |
1546 |C-indenting| for info on C indenting in general. | |
1547 | |
1548 | |
1549 *'cinwords'* *'cinw'* | |
1550 'cinwords' 'cinw' string (default "if,else,while,do,for,switch") | |
1551 local to buffer | |
1552 {not in Vi} | |
1553 {not available when compiled without both the | |
1554 |+cindent| and the |+smartindent| features} | |
1555 These keywords start an extra indent in the next line when | |
1556 'smartindent' or 'cindent' is set. For 'cindent' this is only done at | |
1557 an appropriate place (inside {}). | |
1558 Note that 'ignorecase' isn't used for 'cinwords'. If case doesn't | |
1559 matter, include the keyword both the uppercase and lowercase: | |
1560 "if,If,IF". | |
1561 | |
1562 *'clipboard'* *'cb'* | |
1563 'clipboard' 'cb' string (default "autoselect,exclude:cons\|linux" | |
1564 for X-windows, "" otherwise) | |
1565 global | |
1566 {not in Vi} | |
1567 {only in GUI versions or when the |+xterm_clipboard| | |
1568 feature is included} | |
1569 This option is a list of comma separated names. | |
1570 These names are recognized: | |
1571 | |
3674 | 1572 *clipboard-unnamed* |
7 | 1573 unnamed When included, Vim will use the clipboard register '*' |
1574 for all yank, delete, change and put operations which | |
1575 would normally go to the unnamed register. When a | |
1576 register is explicitly specified, it will always be | |
1577 used regardless of whether "unnamed" is in 'clipboard' | |
1578 or not. The clipboard register can always be | |
1579 explicitly accessed using the "* notation. Also see | |
1580 |gui-clipboard|. | |
1581 | |
3682 | 1582 *clipboard-unnamedplus* |
4119 | 1583 unnamedplus A variant of the "unnamed" flag which uses the |
1584 clipboard register '+' (|quoteplus|) instead of | |
1585 register '*' for all yank, delete, change and put | |
1586 operations which would normally go to the unnamed | |
1587 register. When "unnamed" is also included to the | |
1588 option, yank operations (but not delete, change or | |
1589 put) will additionally copy the text into register | |
1590 '*'. | |
2662 | 1591 Only available with the |+X11| feature. |
2654 | 1592 Availability can be checked with: > |
1593 if has('unnamedplus') | |
1594 < | |
3682 | 1595 *clipboard-autoselect* |
7 | 1596 autoselect Works like the 'a' flag in 'guioptions': If present, |
1597 then whenever Visual mode is started, or the Visual | |
1598 area extended, Vim tries to become the owner of the | |
1599 windowing system's global selection or put the | |
1600 selected text on the clipboard used by the selection | |
1601 register "*. See |guioptions_a| and |quotestar| for | |
1602 details. When the GUI is active, the 'a' flag in | |
1603 'guioptions' is used, when the GUI is not active, this | |
1604 "autoselect" flag is used. | |
1605 Also applies to the modeless selection. | |
1606 | |
3674 | 1607 *clipboard-autoselectplus* |
1608 autoselectplus Like "autoselect" but using the + register instead of | |
1609 the * register. Compare to the 'P' flag in | |
1610 'guioptions'. | |
1611 | |
1612 *clipboard-autoselectml* | |
7 | 1613 autoselectml Like "autoselect", but for the modeless selection |
1614 only. Compare to the 'A' flag in 'guioptions'. | |
1615 | |
3674 | 1616 *clipboard-html* |
1904 | 1617 html When the clipboard contains HTML, use this when |
1618 pasting. When putting text on the clipboard, mark it | |
1619 as HTML. This works to copy rendered HTML from | |
1620 Firefox, paste it as raw HTML in Vim, select the HTML | |
1621 in Vim and paste it in a rich edit box in Firefox. | |

1625 Only available with the |+multi_byte| feature. | |
1626 | |
3674 | 1627 *clipboard-exclude* |
7 | 1628 exclude:{pattern} |
1629 Defines a pattern that is matched against the name of | |
1630 the terminal 'term'. If there is a match, no | |
1631 connection will be made to the X server. This is | |
1632 useful in this situation: | |
1633 - Running Vim in a console. | |
1634 - $DISPLAY is set to start applications on another | |
1635 display. | |
1636 - You do not want to connect to the X server in the | |
1637 console, but do want this in a terminal emulator. | |
1638 To never connect to the X server use: > | |
1639 exclude:.* | |
1640 < This has the same effect as using the |-X| argument. | |
1641 Note that when there is no connection to the X server | |
1642 the window title won't be restored and the clipboard | |
1643 cannot be accessed. | |
1644 The value of 'magic' is ignored, {pattern} is | |
1645 interpreted as if 'magic' was on. | |
1646 The rest of the option value will be used for | |
1647 {pattern}, this must be the last entry. | |
1648 | |
1649 *'cmdheight'* *'ch'* | |
1650 'cmdheight' 'ch' number (default 1) | |
1651 global | |
1652 {not in Vi} | |
1653 Number of screen lines to use for the command-line. Helps avoiding | |
1654 |hit-enter| prompts. | |
824 | 1655 The value of this option is stored with the tab page, so that each tab |
1656 page can have a different value. | |
7 | 1657 |
1658 *'cmdwinheight'* *'cwh'* | |
1659 'cmdwinheight' 'cwh' number (default 7) | |
1660 global | |
1661 {not in Vi} | |

1686 'columns' 'co' number (default 80 or terminal width) | |

1689 Number of columns of the screen. Normally this is set by the terminal | |

7 | 1692 When Vim is running in the GUI or in a resizable window, setting this |

1726 file is found, reset in |defaults.vim|) |
7 | 1727 global |
1728 {not in Vi} | |
1729 This option has the effect of making Vim either more Vi-compatible, or | |
1730 make Vim behave in a more useful way. | |
11062 | 1731 |
7 | 1732 This is a special kind of option, because when it's set or reset, |
11062 | 1733 other options are also changed as a side effect. |
1734 NOTE: Setting or resetting this option can have a lot of unexpected | |
1735 effects: Mappings are interpreted in another way, undo behaves | |
1736 differently, etc. If you set this option in your vimrc file, you | |
1737 should probably put it at the very start. | |
1738 | |
7 | 1739 By default this option is on and the Vi defaults are used for the |
1740 options. This default was chosen for those people who want to use Vim | |
1741 just like Vi, and don't even (want to) know about the 'compatible' | |
1742 option. | |
819 | 1743 When a |vimrc| or |gvimrc| file is found while Vim is starting up, |
378 | 1744 this option is switched off, and all options that have not been |
1745 modified will be set to the Vim defaults. Effectively, this means | |
819 | 1746 that when a |vimrc| or |gvimrc| file exists, Vim will use the Vim |
378 | 1747 defaults, otherwise it will use the Vi defaults. (Note: This doesn't |
1152 | 1748 happen for the system-wide vimrc or gvimrc file, nor for a file given |
1749 with the |-u| argument). Also see |compatible-default| and | |
1750 |posix-compliance|. | |
7 | 1751 You can also set this option with the "-C" argument, and reset it with |
1752 "-N". See |-C| and |-N|. | |

1755 When this option is set, numerous other options are set to make Vim as | |
1756 Vi-compatible as possible. When this option is unset, various options | |
1757 are set to make Vim more useful. The table below lists all the | |
1758 options affected. | |
1759 The {?} column indicates when the options are affected: | |
1760 + Means that the option is set to the value given in {set value} when | |
1761 'compatible' is set. | |
1762 & Means that the option is set to the value given in {set value} when | |
1763 'compatible' is set AND is set to its Vim default value when | |
1764 'compatible' is unset. | |
1765 - Means the option is NOT changed when setting 'compatible' but IS | |
1766 set to its Vim default when 'compatible' is unset. | |
1767 The {effect} column summarises the change when 'compatible' is set. | |

1919 | |

1921 the menu is displayed you can use CTRL-L to add more | |
1922 characters. Whether case is ignored depends on the kind | |
1923 of completion. For buffer text the 'ignorecase' option is | |
1924 used. | |

2013 tabs followed by spaces as required (unless |'expandtab'| is enabled, | |
2014 in which case only spaces are used). Enabling this option makes the | |
2015 new line copy whatever characters were used for indenting on the | |
1621 | 2016 existing line. 'expandtab' has no effect on these characters, a Tab |
2017 remains a Tab. If the new indent is greater than on the existing | |
7 | 2018 line, the remaining space is filled in the normal manner. |
11160 | 2019 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. |
7 | 2020 Also see 'preserveindent'. |

2022 *'cpoptions'* *'cpo'* *cpo* |
7 | 2023 'cpoptions' 'cpo' string (Vim default: "aABceFs", |
2024 Vi default: all flags) | |
2025 global | |
2026 {not in Vi} | |
2027 A sequence of single character flags. When a character is present | |
5340 | 2028 this indicates Vi-compatible behavior. This is used for things where |
2029 not being Vi-compatible is mostly or sometimes preferred. | |
7 | 2030 'cpoptions' stands for "compatible-options". |
2031 Commas can be added for readability. | |
2032 To avoid problems with flags that are added in the future, use the | |
2033 "+=" and "-=" feature of ":set" |add-option-flags|. | |
2034 NOTE: This option is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is | |
2035 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |
164 | 2036 NOTE: This option is set to the POSIX default value at startup when |
2037 the Vi default value would be used and the $VIM_POSIX environment | |

2039 POSIX specification. |
7 | 2040 |
2041 contains behavior ~ | |
2042 *cpo-a* | |
2043 a When included, a ":read" command with a file name | |
2044 argument will set the alternate file name for the | |
2045 current window. | |
2046 *cpo-A* | |
2047 A When included, a ":write" command with a file name | |
2048 argument will set the alternate file name for the | |
2049 current window. | |
2050 *cpo-b* | |
2051 b "\|" in a ":map" command is recognized as the end of | |
2052 the map command. The '\' is included in the mapping, | |
2053 the text after the '|' is interpreted as the next | |
2054 command. Use a CTRL-V instead of a backslash to | |
2055 include the '|' in the mapping. Applies to all | |
2056 mapping, abbreviation, menu and autocmd commands. | |
2057 See also |map_bar|. | |
2058 *cpo-B* | |
2059 B A backslash has no special meaning in mappings, | |
2060 abbreviations and the "to" part of the menu commands. | |
2061 Remove this flag to be able to use a backslash like a | |
2062 CTRL-V. For example, the command ":map X \<Esc>" | |
2063 results in X being mapped to: | |
2064 'B' included: "\^[" (^[ is a real <Esc>) | |
2065 'B' excluded: "<Esc>" (5 characters) | |
2066 ('<' excluded in both cases) | |
2067 *cpo-c* | |
2068 c Searching continues at the end of any match at the | |
2069 cursor position, but not further than the start of the | |
2070 next line. When not present searching continues | |
2071 one character from the cursor position. With 'c' | |
2072 "abababababab" only gets three matches when repeating | |
2073 "/abab", without 'c' there are five matches. | |
2074 *cpo-C* | |
2075 C Do not concatenate sourced lines that start with a | |
2076 backslash. See |line-continuation|. | |
2077 *cpo-d* | |
2078 d Using "./" in the 'tags' option doesn't mean to use | |
2079 the tags file relative to the current file, but the | |
2080 tags file in the current directory. | |
2081 *cpo-D* | |
2082 D Can't use CTRL-K to enter a digraph after Normal mode | |
2083 commands with a character argument, like |r|, |f| and | |
2084 |t|. | |
2085 *cpo-e* | |
2086 e When executing a register with ":@r", always add a | |
2087 <CR> to the last line, also when the register is not | |
2088 linewise. If this flag is not present, the register | |
2089 is not linewise and the last line does not end in a | |
2090 <CR>, then the last line is put on the command-line | |
2091 and can be edited before hitting <CR>. | |
2092 *cpo-E* | |
2093 E It is an error when using "y", "d", "c", "g~", "gu" or | |
2094 "gU" on an Empty region. The operators only work when | |
2095 at least one character is to be operate on. Example: | |
2096 This makes "y0" fail in the first column. | |
2097 *cpo-f* | |
2098 f When included, a ":read" command with a file name | |
2099 argument will set the file name for the current buffer, | |
2100 if the current buffer doesn't have a file name yet. | |
2101 *cpo-F* | |
2102 F When included, a ":write" command with a file name | |
2103 argument will set the file name for the current | |
2104 buffer, if the current buffer doesn't have a file name | |
590 | 2105 yet. Also see |cpo-P|. |
7 | 2106 *cpo-g* |
2107 g Goto line 1 when using ":edit" without argument. | |
164 | 2108 *cpo-H* |
2109 H When using "I" on a line with only blanks, insert | |
2110 before the last blank. Without this flag insert after | |
2111 the last blank. | |
7 | 2112 *cpo-i* |
2113 i When included, interrupting the reading of a file will | |
2114 leave it modified. | |
10 | 2115 *cpo-I* |
2116 I When moving the cursor up or down just after inserting | |
2117 indent for 'autoindent', do not delete the indent. | |
7 | 2118 *cpo-j* |
2119 j When joining lines, only add two spaces after a '.', | |
2120 not after '!' or '?'. Also see 'joinspaces'. | |
2121 *cpo-J* | |
2122 J A |sentence| has to be followed by two spaces after | |
233 | 2123 the '.', '!' or '?'. A <Tab> is not recognized as |
7 | 2124 white space. |
2125 *cpo-k* | |
2126 k Disable the recognition of raw key codes in | |
2127 mappings, abbreviations, and the "to" part of menu | |
2128 commands. For example, if <Key> sends ^[OA (where ^[ | |
2129 is <Esc>), the command ":map X ^[OA" results in X | |
2130 being mapped to: | |
2131 'k' included: "^[OA" (3 characters) | |
2132 'k' excluded: "<Key>" (one key code) | |
2133 Also see the '<' flag below. | |
2134 *cpo-K* | |
2135 K Don't wait for a key code to complete when it is | |
2136 halfway a mapping. This breaks mapping <F1><F1> when | |
2137 only part of the second <F1> has been read. It | |
2138 enables cancelling the mapping by typing <F1><Esc>. | |
2139 *cpo-l* | |
2140 l Backslash in a [] range in a search pattern is taken | |
168 | 2141 literally, only "\]", "\^", "\-" and "\\" are special. |
2142 See |/[]| | |
7 | 2143 'l' included: "/[ \t]" finds <Space>, '\' and 't' |
2144 'l' excluded: "/[ \t]" finds <Space> and <Tab> | |
168 | 2145 Also see |cpo-\|. |
7 | 2146 *cpo-L* |
2147 L When the 'list' option is set, 'wrapmargin', | |
2148 'textwidth', 'softtabstop' and Virtual Replace mode | |
2149 (see |gR|) count a <Tab> as two characters, instead of | |
2150 the normal behavior of a <Tab>. | |
2151 *cpo-m* | |
2152 m When included, a showmatch will always wait half a | |
2153 second. When not included, a showmatch will wait half | |
2154 a second or until a character is typed. |'showmatch'| | |
2155 *cpo-M* | |
2156 M When excluded, "%" matching will take backslashes into | |
2157 account. Thus in "( \( )" and "\( ( \)" the outer | |
2158 parenthesis match. When included "%" ignores | |
2159 backslashes, which is Vi compatible. | |
2160 *cpo-n* | |

2163 lines. |
7 | 2164 *cpo-o* |
2165 o Line offset to search command is not remembered for | |
2166 next search. | |
2167 *cpo-O* | |
2168 O Don't complain if a file is being overwritten, even | |
2169 when it didn't exist when editing it. This is a | |
2170 protection against a file unexpectedly created by | |
2171 someone else. Vi didn't complain about this. | |
2172 *cpo-p* | |
2173 p Vi compatible Lisp indenting. When not present, a | |
2174 slightly better algorithm is used. | |
590 | 2175 *cpo-P* |
2176 P When included, a ":write" command that appends to a | |
2177 file will set the file name for the current buffer, if | |
2178 the current buffer doesn't have a file name yet and | |
2179 the 'F' flag is also included |cpo-F|. | |
164 | 2180 *cpo-q* |
2181 q When joining multiple lines leave the cursor at the | |
2182 position where it would be when joining two lines. | |
7 | 2183 *cpo-r* |
2184 r Redo ("." command) uses "/" to repeat a search | |
2185 command, instead of the actually used search string. | |
2186 *cpo-R* | |
2187 R Remove marks from filtered lines. Without this flag | |
2188 marks are kept like |:keepmarks| was used. | |
2189 *cpo-s* | |
2190 s Set buffer options when entering the buffer for the | |
2191 first time. This is like it is in Vim version 3.0. | |
10 | 2192 And it is the default. If not present the options are |
7 | 2193 set when the buffer is created. |
2194 *cpo-S* | |
2195 S Set buffer options always when entering a buffer | |
2196 (except 'readonly', 'fileformat', 'filetype' and | |
2197 'syntax'). This is the (most) Vi compatible setting. | |
2198 The options are set to the values in the current | |
2199 buffer. When you change an option and go to another | |
2200 buffer, the value is copied. Effectively makes the | |
2201 buffer options global to all buffers. | |
2202 | |
2203 's' 'S' copy buffer options | |
2204 no no when buffer created | |
2205 yes no when buffer first entered (default) | |
2206 X yes each time when buffer entered (vi comp.) | |
2207 *cpo-t* | |
2208 t Search pattern for the tag command is remembered for | |
2209 "n" command. Otherwise Vim only puts the pattern in | |
2210 the history for search pattern, but doesn't change the | |
2211 last used search pattern. | |
2212 *cpo-u* | |
10 | 2213 u Undo is Vi compatible. See |undo-two-ways|. |
7 | 2214 *cpo-v* |
2215 v Backspaced characters remain visible on the screen in | |
2216 Insert mode. Without this flag the characters are | |
2217 erased from the screen right away. With this flag the | |
2218 screen newly typed text overwrites backspaced | |
2219 characters. | |
2220 *cpo-w* | |
2221 w When using "cw" on a blank character, only change one | |
2222 character and not all blanks until the start of the | |
2223 next word. | |
2224 *cpo-W* | |
2225 W Don't overwrite a readonly file. When omitted, ":w!" | |
2226 overwrites a readonly file, if possible. | |
2227 *cpo-x* | |
2228 x <Esc> on the command-line executes the command-line. | |
2229 The default in Vim is to abandon the command-line, | |
2230 because <Esc> normally aborts a command. |c_<Esc>| | |
164 | 2231 *cpo-X* |
2232 X When using a count with "R" the replaced text is | |
2233 deleted only once. Also when repeating "R" with "." | |
2234 and a count. | |
7 | 2235 *cpo-y* |
2236 y A yank command can be redone with ".". | |
164 | 2237 *cpo-Z* |
2238 Z When using "w!" while the 'readonly' option is set, | |
2239 don't reset 'readonly'. | |
7 | 2240 *cpo-!* |
2241 ! When redoing a filter command, use the last used | |
2242 external command, whatever it was. Otherwise the last | |
2243 used -filter- command is used. | |
2244 *cpo-$* | |
2245 $ When making a change to one line, don't redisplay the | |
2246 line, but put a '$' at the end of the changed text. | |
2247 The changed text will be overwritten when you type the | |
2248 new text. The line is redisplayed if you type any | |
2249 command that moves the cursor from the insertion | |
2250 point. | |
2251 *cpo-%* | |
2252 % Vi-compatible matching is done for the "%" command. | |
2253 Does not recognize "#if", "#endif", etc. | |
2254 Does not recognize "/*" and "*/". | |
2255 Parens inside single and double quotes are also | |
2256 counted, causing a string that contains a paren to | |
2257 disturb the matching. For example, in a line like | |
2258 "if (strcmp("foo(", s))" the first paren does not | |
2259 match the last one. When this flag is not included, | |
2260 parens inside single and double quotes are treated | |
2261 specially. When matching a paren outside of quotes, | |
2262 everything inside quotes is ignored. When matching a | |
2263 paren inside quotes, it will find the matching one (if | |
10 | 2264 there is one). This works very well for C programs. |
36 | 2265 This flag is also used for other features, such as |
2266 C-indenting. | |
161 | 2267 *cpo--* |
2268 - When included, a vertical movement command fails when | |
632 | 2269 it would go above the first line or below the last |
2270 line. Without it the cursor moves to the first or | |
2271 last line, unless it already was in that line. | |
161 | 2272 Applies to the commands "-", "k", CTRL-P, "+", "j", |
632 | 2273 CTRL-N, CTRL-J and ":1234". |
39 | 2274 *cpo-+* |
2275 + When included, a ":write file" command will reset the | |
2276 'modified' flag of the buffer, even though the buffer | |
2277 itself may still be different from its file. | |
856 | 2278 *cpo-star* |
7 | 2279 * Use ":*" in the same way as ":@". When not included, |
2280 ":*" is an alias for ":'<,'>", select the Visual area. | |
2281 *cpo-<* | |
2282 < Disable the recognition of special key codes in |<>| | |
2283 form in mappings, abbreviations, and the "to" part of | |
10 | 2284 menu commands. For example, the command |
7 | 2285 ":map X <Tab>" results in X being mapped to: |
2286 '<' included: "<Tab>" (5 characters) | |
2287 '<' excluded: "^I" (^I is a real <Tab>) | |
2288 Also see the 'k' flag above. | |
164 | 2289 *cpo->* |
2290 > When appending to a register, put a line break before | |
2291 the appended text. | |
2925 | 2292 *cpo-;* |
2293 ; When using |,| or |;| to repeat the last |t| search | |
2294 and the cursor is right in front of the searched | |
2295 character, the cursor won't move. When not included, | |
2296 the cursor would skip over it and jump to the | |
3557 | 2297 following occurrence. |
164 | 2298 |
2299 POSIX flags. These are not included in the Vi default value, except | |
2300 when $VIM_POSIX was set on startup. |posix| | |
2301 | |
2302 contains behavior ~ | |
856 | 2303 *cpo-#* |
164 | 2304 # A count before "D", "o" and "O" has no effect. |
168 | 2305 *cpo-&* |
2306 & When ":preserve" was used keep the swap file when | |
2307 exiting normally while this buffer is still loaded. | |
2308 This flag is tested when exiting. | |
2309 *cpo-\* | |
2310 \ Backslash in a [] range in a search pattern is taken | |
2311 literally, only "\]" is special See |/[]| | |
488 | 2312 '\' included: "/[ \-]" finds <Space>, '\' and '-' |
2313 '\' excluded: "/[ \-]" finds <Space> and '-' | |
2314 Also see |cpo-l|. | |
168 | 2315 *cpo-/* |
2316 / When "%" is used as the replacement string in a |:s| | |
2317 command, use the previous replacement string. |:s%| | |
164 | 2318 *cpo-{* |
2319 { The |{| and |}| commands also stop at a "{" character | |
2320 at the start of a line. | |
168 | 2321 *cpo-.* |
2322 . The ":chdir" and ":cd" commands fail if the current | |
2323 buffer is modified, unless ! is used. Vim doesn't | |
2324 need this, since it remembers the full path of an | |
2325 opened file. | |
164 | 2326 *cpo-bar* |
2327 | The value of the $LINES and $COLUMNS environment | |
2328 variables overrule the terminal size values obtained | |
2329 with system specific functions. | |

10 | 2503 Pattern to be used to find a macro definition. It is a search |

2506 used to recognize the defined name after the match: | |
2507 {match with 'define'}{non-ID chars}{defined name}{non-ID char} | |
2508 See |option-backslash| about inserting backslashes to include a space | |
2509 or backslash. | |
2510 The default value is for C programs. For C++ this value would be | |
2511 useful, to include const type declarations: > | |
2512 ^\(#\s*define\|[a-z]*\s*const\s*[a-z]*\) | |

2522 "x" delete each combining character on its own. When it is off (the | |
2523 default) the character along with its combining characters are | |
2524 deleted. | |
2525 Note: When 'delcombine' is set "xx" may work different from "2x"! | |
2526 | |
2527 This is useful for Arabic, Hebrew and many other languages where one | |
2528 may have combining characters overtop of base characters, and want | |
2529 to remove only the combining ones. | |

2536 List of file names, separated by commas, that are used to lookup words | |
2537 for keyword completion commands |i_CTRL-X_CTRL-K|. Each file should | |
2538 contain a list of words. This can be one word per line, or several | |
2539 words per line, separated by non-keyword characters (white space is | |
2540 preferred). Maximum line length is 510 bytes. | |
703 | 2541 When this option is empty, or an entry "spell" is present, spell |
2542 checking is enabled the currently active spelling is used. |spell| | |
10 | 2543 To include a comma in a file name precede it with a backslash. Spaces |
7 | 2544 after a comma are ignored, otherwise spaces are included in the file |
2545 name. See |option-backslash| about using backslashes. | |
99 | 2546 This has nothing to do with the |Dictionary| variable type. |
7 | 2547 Where to find a list of words? |
2548 - On FreeBSD, there is the file "/usr/share/dict/words". | |
2549 - In the Simtel archive, look in the "msdos/linguist" directory. | |
2550 - In "miscfiles" of the GNU collection. | |
2551 The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
2552 directories from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
2553 uses another default. | |
2554 Backticks cannot be used in this option for security reasons. | |

10 | 2582 Option settings for diff mode. It can consist of the following items. |
7 | 2583 All are optional. Items must be separated by a comma. |
2584 | |
2585 filler Show filler lines, to keep the text | |
2586 synchronized with a window that has inserted | |
2587 lines at the same position. Mostly useful | |
2588 when windows are side-by-side and 'scrollbind' | |
2589 is set. | |
2590 | |
2591 context:{n} Use a context of {n} lines between a change | |
2592 and a fold that contains unchanged lines. | |
2593 When omitted a context of six lines is used. | |
2594 See |fold-diff|. | |
2595 | |
2596 icase Ignore changes in case of text. "a" and "A" | |
2597 are considered the same. Adds the "-i" flag | |
2598 to the "diff" command if 'diffexpr' is empty. | |
2599 | |
2600 iwhite Ignore changes in amount of white space. Adds | |
2601 the "-b" flag to the "diff" command if | |
2602 'diffexpr' is empty. Check the documentation | |
2603 of the "diff" command for what this does | |
2604 exactly. It should ignore adding trailing | |
2605 white space, but not leading white space. | |
2606 | |
766 | 2607 horizontal Start diff mode with horizontal splits (unless |
2608 explicitly specified otherwise). | |
2609 | |
2610 vertical Start diff mode with vertical splits (unless | |
2611 explicitly specified otherwise). | |
2612 | |
2613 foldcolumn:{n} Set the 'foldcolumn' option to {n} when | |
2614 starting diff mode. Without this 2 is used. | |

7 | 2621 < |
2622 *'digraph'* *'dg'* *'nodigraph'* *'nodg'* | |
2623 'digraph' 'dg' boolean (default off) | |
2624 global | |
2625 {not in Vi} | |
2626 {not available when compiled without the |+digraphs| | |
2627 feature} | |
2628 Enable the entering of digraphs in Insert mode with {char1} <BS> | |
2629 {char2}. See |digraphs|. | |
2630 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |
2631 | |
2632 *'directory'* *'dir'* | |
2633 'directory' 'dir' string (default for Amiga: ".,t:", | |
5555 | 2634 for MS-DOS and Win32: ".,$TEMP,c:\tmp,c:\temp" |
7 | 2635 for Unix: ".,~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp") |
2636 global | |
2637 List of directory names for the swap file, separated with commas. | |
2638 - The swap file will be created in the first directory where this is | |
2639 possible. | |
2640 - Empty means that no swap file will be used (recovery is | |
2641 impossible!). | |
2642 - A directory "." means to put the swap file in the same directory as | |
2643 the edited file. On Unix, a dot is prepended to the file name, so | |
2644 it doesn't show in a directory listing. On MS-Windows the "hidden" | |
2645 attribute is set and a dot prepended if possible. | |
33 | 2646 - A directory starting with "./" (or ".\" for MS-DOS et al.) means to |
7 | 2647 put the swap file relative to where the edited file is. The leading |
2648 "." is replaced with the path name of the edited file. | |
459 | 2649 - For Unix and Win32, if a directory ends in two path separators "//" |
2650 or "\\", the swap file name will be built from the complete path to | |
2651 the file with all path separators substituted to percent '%' signs. | |
2652 This will ensure file name uniqueness in the preserve directory. | |
1698 | 2653 On Win32, when a separating comma is following, you must use "//", |
2654 since "\\" will include the comma in the file name. | |
7 | 2655 - Spaces after the comma are ignored, other spaces are considered part |
2656 of the directory name. To have a space at the start of a directory | |
2657 name, precede it with a backslash. | |
2658 - To include a comma in a directory name precede it with a backslash. | |
2659 - A directory name may end in an ':' or '/'. | |
2660 - Environment variables are expanded |:set_env|. | |
2661 - Careful with '\' characters, type one before a space, type two to | |
2662 get one in the option (see |option-backslash|), for example: > | |
2663 :set dir=c:\\tmp,\ dir\\,with\\,commas,\\\ dir\ with\ spaces | |
2664 < - For backwards compatibility with Vim version 3.0 a '>' at the start | |
2665 of the option is removed. | |
2666 Using "." first in the list is recommended. This means that editing | |
2667 the same file twice will result in a warning. Using "/tmp" on Unix is | |
2668 discouraged: When the system crashes you lose the swap file. | |
2669 "/var/tmp" is often not cleared when rebooting, thus is a better | |
2670 choice than "/tmp". But it can contain a lot of files, your swap | |
2671 files get lost in the crowd. That is why a "tmp" directory in your | |
2672 home directory is tried first. | |
2673 The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
2674 directories from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
2675 uses another default. | |
2676 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
2677 security reasons. | |
2678 {Vi: directory to put temp file in, defaults to "/tmp"} | |

2733 Sets the character encoding used inside Vim. It applies to text in | |

2736 with. See |encoding-names| for the possible values. | |
2737 | |
2738 NOTE: Changing this option will not change the encoding of the | |
39 | 2739 existing text in Vim. It may cause non-ASCII text to become invalid. |
7 | 2740 It should normally be kept at its default value, or set when Vim |

2747 to "utf-8". Although care has been taken to allow different values of |
7 | 2748 'encoding', "utf-8" is the natural choice for the environment and |
2749 avoids unnecessary conversion overhead. "utf-8" has not been made | |
10 | 2750 the default to prevent different behavior of the GUI and terminal |
7 | 2751 versions, and to avoid changing the encoding of newly created files |
2752 without your knowledge (in case 'fileencodings' is empty). | |
2753 | |
2754 The character encoding of files can be different from 'encoding'. | |
10 | 2755 This is specified with 'fileencoding'. The conversion is done with |
7 | 2756 iconv() or as specified with 'charconvert'. |

7 | 2762 Normally 'encoding' will be equal to your current locale. This will |
2763 be the default if Vim recognizes your environment settings. If | |
2764 'encoding' is not set to the current locale, 'termencoding' must be | |
2765 set to convert typed and displayed text. See |encoding-table|. | |
2766 | |
2767 When you set this option, it fires the |EncodingChanged| autocommand | |
2768 event so that you can set up fonts if necessary. | |
2769 | |
2770 When the option is set, the value is converted to lowercase. Thus | |
2771 you can set it with uppercase values too. Underscores are translated | |
2772 to '-' signs. | |
2773 When the encoding is recognized, it is changed to the standard name. | |
2774 For example "Latin-1" becomes "latin1", "ISO_88592" becomes | |
2775 "iso-8859-2" and "utf8" becomes "utf-8". | |
2776 | |
2777 Note: "latin1" is also used when the encoding could not be detected. | |
2778 This only works when editing files in the same encoding! When the | |
2779 actual character set is not latin1, make sure 'fileencoding' and | |
2780 'fileencodings' are empty. When conversion is needed, switch to using | |
2781 utf-8. | |
2782 | |
2783 When "unicode", "ucs-2" or "ucs-4" is used, Vim internally uses utf-8. | |
2784 You don't notice this while editing, but it does matter for the | |
2785 |viminfo-file|. And Vim expects the terminal to use utf-8 too. Thus | |
2786 setting 'encoding' to one of these values instead of utf-8 only has | |
2787 effect for encoding used for files when 'fileencoding' is empty. | |
448 | 2788 |
2789 When 'encoding' is set to a Unicode encoding, and 'fileencodings' was | |
2790 not set yet, the default for 'fileencodings' is changed. | |
7 | 2791 |
2792 *'endofline'* *'eol'* *'noendofline'* *'noeol'* | |
2793 'endofline' 'eol' boolean (default on) | |
2794 local to buffer | |
2795 {not in Vi} | |
2796 When writing a file and this option is off and the 'binary' option | |
6933 | 2797 is on, or 'fixeol' option is off, no <EOL> will be written for the |
2798 last line in the file. This option is automatically set or reset when | |
2799 starting to edit a new file, depending on whether file has an <EOL> | |
2800 for the last line in the file. Normally you don't have to set or | |
2801 reset this option. | |
2802 When 'binary' is off and 'fixeol' is on the value is not used when | |
2803 writing the file. When 'binary' is on or 'fixeol' is off it is used | |
2804 to remember the presence of a <EOL> for the last line in the file, so | |
2805 that when you write the file the situation from the original file can | |
2806 be kept. But you can change it if you want to. | |
7 | 2807 |
2808 *'equalalways'* *'ea'* *'noequalalways'* *'noea'* | |
2809 'equalalways' 'ea' boolean (default on) | |
2810 global | |
2811 {not in Vi} | |
2812 When on, all the windows are automatically made the same size after | |
33 | 2813 splitting or closing a window. This also happens the moment the |
2814 option is switched on. When off, splitting a window will reduce the | |
2815 size of the current window and leave the other windows the same. When | |
2816 closing a window the extra lines are given to the window next to it | |
2817 (depending on 'splitbelow' and 'splitright'). | |
7 | 2818 When mixing vertically and horizontally split windows, a minimal size |
2819 is computed and some windows may be larger if there is room. The | |
2820 'eadirection' option tells in which direction the size is affected. | |
1354 | 2821 Changing the height and width of a window can be avoided by setting |
2822 'winfixheight' and 'winfixwidth', respectively. | |

7 | 2981 This option can not be changed when 'modifiable' is off. |
2982 | |
2983 *'fe'* | |
2984 NOTE: Before version 6.0 this option specified the encoding for the | |
10 | 2985 whole of Vim, this was a mistake. Now use 'encoding' instead. The |
7 | 2986 old short name was 'fe', which is no longer used. |
2987 | |
2988 *'fileencodings'* *'fencs'* | |
39 | 2989 'fileencodings' 'fencs' string (default: "ucs-bom", |
2990 "ucs-bom,utf-8,default,latin1" when | |
2991 'encoding' is set to a Unicode value) | |
7 | 2992 global |
2993 {only available when compiled with the |+multi_byte| | |
2994 feature} | |
2995 {not in Vi} | |
2996 This is a list of character encodings considered when starting to edit | |
2997 an existing file. When a file is read, Vim tries to use the first | |
2998 mentioned character encoding. If an error is detected, the next one | |
2999 in the list is tried. When an encoding is found that works, | |
10 | 3000 'fileencoding' is set to it. If all fail, 'fileencoding' is set to |
7 | 3001 an empty string, which means the value of 'encoding' is used. |
3002 WARNING: Conversion can cause loss of information! When | |
3003 'encoding' is "utf-8" (or one of the other Unicode variants) | |
3004 conversion is most likely done in a way that the reverse | |
3005 conversion results in the same text. When 'encoding' is not | |
596 | 3006 "utf-8" some non-ASCII characters may be lost! You can use |
3007 the |++bad| argument to specify what is done with characters | |
3008 that can't be converted. | |
7 | 3009 For an empty file or a file with only ASCII characters most encodings |
3010 will work and the first entry of 'fileencodings' will be used (except | |
3011 "ucs-bom", which requires the BOM to be present). If you prefer | |
3012 another encoding use an BufReadPost autocommand event to test if your | |
3013 preferred encoding is to be used. Example: > | |
3014 au BufReadPost * if search('\S', 'w') == 0 | | |
3015 \ set fenc=iso-2022-jp | endif | |
3016 < This sets 'fileencoding' to "iso-2022-jp" if the file does not contain | |
3017 non-blank characters. | |
596 | 3018 When the |++enc| argument is used then the value of 'fileencodings' is |
3019 not used. | |
692 | 3020 Note that 'fileencodings' is not used for a new file, the global value |
3021 of 'fileencoding' is used instead. You can set it with: > | |
3022 :setglobal fenc=iso-8859-2 | |
3023 < This means that a non-existing file may get a different encoding than | |
3024 an empty file. | |
7 | 3025 The special value "ucs-bom" can be used to check for a Unicode BOM |
3026 (Byte Order Mark) at the start of the file. It must not be preceded | |
3027 by "utf-8" or another Unicode encoding for this to work properly. | |
3028 An entry for an 8-bit encoding (e.g., "latin1") should be the last, | |
3029 because Vim cannot detect an error, thus the encoding is always | |
3030 accepted. | |
39 | 3031 The special value "default" can be used for the encoding from the |
3032 environment. This is the default value for 'encoding'. It is useful | |
3033 when 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" and your environment uses a | |
3034 non-latin1 encoding, such as Russian. | |
777 | 3035 When 'encoding' is "utf-8" and a file contains an illegal byte |
3036 sequence it won't be recognized as UTF-8. You can use the |8g8| | |
3037 command to find the illegal byte sequence. | |
7 | 3038 WRONG VALUES: WHAT'S WRONG: |
3039 latin1,utf-8 "latin1" will always be used | |
3040 utf-8,ucs-bom,latin1 BOM won't be recognized in an utf-8 | |
3041 file | |
3042 cp1250,latin1 "cp1250" will always be used | |
3043 If 'fileencodings' is empty, 'fileencoding' is not modified. | |
3044 See 'fileencoding' for the possible values. | |
3045 Setting this option does not have an effect until the next time a file | |
3046 is read. | |
3047 | |
3048 *'fileformat'* *'ff'* | |
3049 'fileformat' 'ff' string (MS-DOS, MS-Windows, OS/2 default: "dos", | |
3050 Unix default: "unix", | |
3051 Macintosh default: "mac") | |
3052 local to buffer | |
3053 {not in Vi} | |
3054 This gives the <EOL> of the current buffer, which is used for | |
3055 reading/writing the buffer from/to a file: | |
3056 dos <CR> <NL> | |
3057 unix <NL> | |
3058 mac <CR> | |
3059 When "dos" is used, CTRL-Z at the end of a file is ignored. | |
3060 See |file-formats| and |file-read|. | |
3061 For the character encoding of the file see 'fileencoding'. | |
3062 When 'binary' is set, the value of 'fileformat' is ignored, file I/O | |
4264 | 3063 works like it was set to "unix". |
7 | 3064 This option is set automatically when starting to edit a file and |
3065 'fileformats' is not empty and 'binary' is off. | |
3066 When this option is set, after starting to edit a file, the 'modified' | |
3067 option is set, because the file would be different when written. | |
3068 This option can not be changed when 'modifiable' is off. | |
3069 For backwards compatibility: When this option is set to "dos", | |
3070 'textmode' is set, otherwise 'textmode' is reset. | |
3071 | |
3072 *'fileformats'* *'ffs'* | |
3073 'fileformats' 'ffs' string (default: | |
3074 Vim+Vi MS-DOS, MS-Windows OS/2: "dos,unix", | |
3075 Vim Unix: "unix,dos", | |
3076 Vim Mac: "mac,unix,dos", | |
3077 Vi Cygwin: "unix,dos", | |
3078 Vi others: "") | |
3079 global | |
3080 {not in Vi} | |
3081 This gives the end-of-line (<EOL>) formats that will be tried when | |
3082 starting to edit a new buffer and when reading a file into an existing | |
3083 buffer: | |
3084 - When empty, the format defined with 'fileformat' will be used | |
3085 always. It is not set automatically. | |
3086 - When set to one name, that format will be used whenever a new buffer | |
10 | 3087 is opened. 'fileformat' is set accordingly for that buffer. The |
7 | 3088 'fileformats' name will be used when a file is read into an existing |
3089 buffer, no matter what 'fileformat' for that buffer is set to. | |
3090 - When more than one name is present, separated by commas, automatic | |
3091 <EOL> detection will be done when reading a file. When starting to | |
3092 edit a file, a check is done for the <EOL>: | |
3093 1. If all lines end in <CR><NL>, and 'fileformats' includes "dos", | |
3094 'fileformat' is set to "dos". | |
3095 2. If a <NL> is found and 'fileformats' includes "unix", 'fileformat' | |
10 | 3096 is set to "unix". Note that when a <NL> is found without a |
7 | 3097 preceding <CR>, "unix" is preferred over "dos". |
6647 | 3098 3. If 'fileformat' has not yet been set, and if a <CR> is found, and |
3099 if 'fileformats' includes "mac", 'fileformat' is set to "mac". | |
2587 | 3100 This means that "mac" is only chosen when: |
3101 "unix" is not present or no <NL> is found in the file, and | |
3102 "dos" is not present or no <CR><NL> is found in the file. | |
3103 Except: if "unix" was chosen, but there is a <CR> before | |
3104 the first <NL>, and there appear to be more <CR>s than <NL>s in | |
2642 | 3105 the first few lines, "mac" is used. |
7 | 3106 4. If 'fileformat' is still not set, the first name from |
3107 'fileformats' is used. | |
3108 When reading a file into an existing buffer, the same is done, but | |
3109 this happens like 'fileformat' has been set appropriately for that | |
3110 file only, the option is not changed. | |
3111 When 'binary' is set, the value of 'fileformats' is not used. | |

3114 can overrule this by setting 'fileformat' in your .vimrc. |
2662 | 3115 |
7 | 3116 For systems with a Dos-like <EOL> (<CR><NL>), when reading files that |
3117 are ":source"ed and for vimrc files, automatic <EOL> detection may be | |
3118 done: | |
3119 - When 'fileformats' is empty, there is no automatic detection. Dos | |
3120 format will be used. | |
3121 - When 'fileformats' is set to one or more names, automatic detection | |
3122 is done. This is based on the first <NL> in the file: If there is a | |
3123 <CR> in front of it, Dos format is used, otherwise Unix format is | |
3124 used. | |
3125 Also see |file-formats|. | |
3126 For backwards compatibility: When this option is set to an empty | |
3127 string or one format (no comma is included), 'textauto' is reset, | |
3128 otherwise 'textauto' is set. | |
3129 NOTE: This option is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is | |
3130 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |
3131 | |
4264 | 3132 *'fileignorecase'* *'fic'* *'nofileignorecase'* *'nofic'* |
3133 'fileignorecase' 'fic' boolean (default on for systems where case in file | |
3134 names is normally ignored) | |
4242 | 3135 global |
3136 {not in Vi} | |
3137 When set case is ignored when using file names and directories. | |
3138 See 'wildignorecase' for only ignoring case when doing completion. | |
3139 | |
7 | 3140 *'filetype'* *'ft'* |
3141 'filetype' 'ft' string (default: "") | |
3142 local to buffer | |
3143 {not in Vi} | |
3144 {not available when compiled without the |+autocmd| | |
3145 feature} | |
3146 When this option is set, the FileType autocommand event is triggered. | |
3147 All autocommands that match with the value of this option will be | |
3148 executed. Thus the value of 'filetype' is used in place of the file | |
3149 name. | |
3150 Otherwise this option does not always reflect the current file type. | |
3151 This option is normally set when the file type is detected. To enable | |
3152 this use the ":filetype on" command. |:filetype| | |
3153 Setting this option to a different value is most useful in a modeline, | |
3154 for a file for which the file type is not automatically recognized. | |
782 | 3155 Example, for in an IDL file: |
3156 /* vim: set filetype=idl : */ ~ | |
3157 |FileType| |filetypes| | |
3158 When a dot appears in the value then this separates two filetype | |
3159 names. Example: | |
3160 /* vim: set filetype=c.doxygen : */ ~ | |
3161 This will use the "c" filetype first, then the "doxygen" filetype. | |
3162 This works both for filetype plugins and for syntax files. More than | |
3163 one dot may appear. | |
7 | 3164 This option is not copied to another buffer, independent of the 's' or |
3165 'S' flag in 'cpoptions'. | |
36 | 3166 Only normal file name characters can be used, "/\*?[|<>" are illegal. |
7 | 3167 |
3168 *'fillchars'* *'fcs'* | |
3169 'fillchars' 'fcs' string (default "vert:|,fold:-") | |
3170 global | |
3171 {not in Vi} | |
3172 {not available when compiled without the |+windows| | |

3274 evaluating 'foldexpr' |textlock|. | |

3276 *'foldignore'* *'fdi'* | |
3277 'foldignore' 'fdi' string (default: "#") | |
3278 local to window | |
3279 {not in Vi} | |
3280 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3281 feature} | |
3282 Used only when 'foldmethod' is "indent". Lines starting with | |
3283 characters in 'foldignore' will get their fold level from surrounding | |
10 | 3284 lines. White space is skipped before checking for this character. |
7 | 3285 The default "#" works well for C programs. See |fold-indent|. |
3286 | |
3287 *'foldlevel'* *'fdl'* | |
3288 'foldlevel' 'fdl' number (default: 0) | |
3289 local to window | |
3290 {not in Vi} | |
3291 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3292 feature} | |
3293 Sets the fold level: Folds with a higher level will be closed. | |
3294 Setting this option to zero will close all folds. Higher numbers will | |
3295 close fewer folds. | |
3296 This option is set by commands like |zm|, |zM| and |zR|. | |
3297 See |fold-foldlevel|. | |
3298 | |
3299 *'foldlevelstart'* *'fdls'* | |
3300 'foldlevelstart' 'fdls' number (default: -1) | |
3301 global | |
3302 {not in Vi} | |
3303 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3304 feature} | |
3305 Sets 'foldlevel' when starting to edit another buffer in a window. | |
3306 Useful to always start editing with all folds closed (value zero), | |
3307 some folds closed (one) or no folds closed (99). | |
3308 This is done before reading any modeline, thus a setting in a modeline | |
10 | 3309 overrules this option. Starting to edit a file for |diff-mode| also |
7 | 3310 ignores this option and closes all folds. |
3311 It is also done before BufReadPre autocommands, to allow an autocmd to | |
3312 overrule the 'foldlevel' value for specific files. | |
3313 When the value is negative, it is not used. | |
3314 | |
3315 *'foldmarker'* *'fmr'* *E536* | |
3316 'foldmarker' 'fmr' string (default: "{{{,}}}") | |
3317 local to window | |
3318 {not in Vi} | |
3319 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3320 feature} | |
3321 The start and end marker used when 'foldmethod' is "marker". There | |
3322 must be one comma, which separates the start and end marker. The | |
3323 marker is a literal string (a regular expression would be too slow). | |
3324 See |fold-marker|. | |
3325 | |
3326 *'foldmethod'* *'fdm'* | |
3327 'foldmethod' 'fdm' string (default: "manual") | |
3328 local to window | |
3329 {not in Vi} | |
3330 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3331 feature} | |
3332 The kind of folding used for the current window. Possible values: | |
3333 |fold-manual| manual Folds are created manually. | |
3334 |fold-indent| indent Lines with equal indent form a fold. | |
3335 |fold-expr| expr 'foldexpr' gives the fold level of a line. | |
3336 |fold-marker| marker Markers are used to specify folds. | |
3337 |fold-syntax| syntax Syntax highlighting items specify folds. | |
3338 |fold-diff| diff Fold text that is not changed. | |
3339 | |
3340 *'foldminlines'* *'fml'* | |
3341 'foldminlines' 'fml' number (default: 1) | |
3342 local to window | |
3343 {not in Vi} | |
3344 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3345 feature} | |
2709 | 3346 Sets the number of screen lines above which a fold can be displayed |
3347 closed. Also for manually closed folds. With the default value of | |
3348 one a fold can only be closed if it takes up two or more screen lines. | |
3349 Set to zero to be able to close folds of just one screen line. | |
2826 | 3350 Note that this only has an effect on what is displayed. After using |
7 | 3351 "zc" to close a fold, which is displayed open because it's smaller |
3352 than 'foldminlines', a following "zc" may close a containing fold. | |
3353 | |
3354 *'foldnestmax'* *'fdn'* | |
3355 'foldnestmax' 'fdn' number (default: 20) | |
3356 local to window | |
3357 {not in Vi} | |
3358 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3359 feature} | |
3360 Sets the maximum nesting of folds for the "indent" and "syntax" | |
3361 methods. This avoids that too many folds will be created. Using more | |
3362 than 20 doesn't work, because the internal limit is 20. | |
3363 | |
3364 *'foldopen'* *'fdo'* | |
3365 'foldopen' 'fdo' string (default: "block,hor,mark,percent,quickfix, | |
3366 search,tag,undo") | |
3367 global | |
3368 {not in Vi} | |
3369 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3370 feature} | |
3371 Specifies for which type of commands folds will be opened, if the | |
3372 command moves the cursor into a closed fold. It is a comma separated | |
3373 list of items. | |
2625 | 3374 NOTE: When the command is part of a mapping this option is not used. |
3375 Add the |zv| command to the mapping to get the same effect. | |
3376 (rationale: the mapping may want to control opening folds itself) | |
3377 | |
7 | 3378 item commands ~ |
3379 all any | |
3380 block "(", "{", "[[", "[{", etc. | |
3381 hor horizontal movements: "l", "w", "fx", etc. | |
3382 insert any command in Insert mode | |
3383 jump far jumps: "G", "gg", etc. | |
3384 mark jumping to a mark: "'m", CTRL-O, etc. | |
3385 percent "%" | |
3386 quickfix ":cn", ":crew", ":make", etc. | |
3387 search search for a pattern: "/", "n", "*", "gd", etc. | |
3388 (not for a search pattern in a ":" command) | |
819 | 3389 Also for |[s| and |]s|. |
7 | 3390 tag jumping to a tag: ":ta", CTRL-T, etc. |
3391 undo undo or redo: "u" and CTRL-R | |
3392 When a movement command is used for an operator (e.g., "dl" or "y%") | |
3393 this option is not used. This means the operator will include the | |
3394 whole closed fold. | |
3395 Note that vertical movements are not here, because it would make it | |
3396 very difficult to move onto a closed fold. | |
3397 In insert mode the folds containing the cursor will always be open | |
3398 when text is inserted. | |
3399 To close folds you can re-apply 'foldlevel' with the |zx| command or | |
3400 set the 'foldclose' option to "all". | |
3401 | |
3402 *'foldtext'* *'fdt'* | |
3403 'foldtext' 'fdt' string (default: "foldtext()") | |
3404 local to window | |
3405 {not in Vi} | |
3406 {not available when compiled without the |+folding| | |
3407 feature} | |
3408 An expression which is used to specify the text displayed for a closed | |
3409 fold. See |fold-foldtext|. | |
3410 | |
3682 | 3411 The expression will be evaluated in the |sandbox| if set from a |
3412 modeline, see |sandbox-option|. | |
634 | 3413 |
3414 It is not allowed to change text or jump to another window while | |
3415 evaluating 'foldtext' |textlock|. | |

3456 {not in Vi} | |
3457 This is a sequence of letters which describes how automatic | |
3458 formatting is to be done. See |fo-table|. When the 'paste' option is | |
3459 on, no formatting is done (like 'formatoptions' is empty). Commas can | |
3460 be inserted for readability. | |
3461 To avoid problems with flags that are added in the future, use the | |
3462 "+=" and "-=" feature of ":set" |add-option-flags|. | |
3463 NOTE: This option is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is | |
3464 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |

3470 A pattern that is used to recognize a list header. This is used for | |
3471 the "n" flag in 'formatoptions'. | |
3472 The pattern must match exactly the text that will be the indent for | |
140 | 3473 the line below it. You can use |/\ze| to mark the end of the match |
41 | 3474 while still checking more characters. There must be a character |
3475 following the pattern, when it matches the whole line it is handled | |
3476 like there is no match. | |
3477 The default recognizes a number, followed by an optional punctuation | |
3478 character and white space. | |

3500 When on, the library function fsync() will be called after writing a | |
3501 file. This will flush a file to disk, ensuring that it is safely | |
3502 written even on filesystems which do metadata-only journaling. This | |
3503 will force the harddrive to spin up on Linux systems running in laptop | |
3504 mode, so it may be undesirable in some situations. Be warned that | |
3505 turning this off increases the chances of data loss after a crash. On | |
3506 systems without an fsync() implementation, this variable is always | |
3507 off. | |
3508 Also see 'swapsync' for controlling fsync() on swap files. | |

3514 When on, the ":substitute" flag 'g' is default on. This means that | |
3515 all matches in a line are substituted instead of one. When a 'g' flag | |

3538 'grepprg' 'gp' string (default "grep -n ", | |

233 | 3544 Program to use for the |:grep| command. This option may contain '%' |
7 | 3545 and '#' characters, which are expanded like when used in a command- |
3546 line. The placeholder "$*" is allowed to specify where the arguments | |
3547 will be included. Environment variables are expanded |:set_env|. See | |
3548 |option-backslash| about including spaces and backslashes. | |
3549 When your "grep" accepts the "-H" argument, use this to make ":grep" | |
3550 also work well with a single file: > | |
3551 :set grepprg=grep\ -nH | |
161 | 3552 < Special value: When 'grepprg' is set to "internal" the |:grep| command |
657 | 3553 works like |:vimgrep|, |:lgrep| like |:lvimgrep|, |:grepadd| like |
3554 |:vimgrepadd| and |:lgrepadd| like |:lvimgrepadd|. | |
41 | 3555 See also the section |:make_makeprg|, since most of the comments there |
7 | 3556 apply equally to 'grepprg'. |
3557 For Win32, the default is "findstr /n" if "findstr.exe" can be found, | |
3558 otherwise it's "grep -n". | |
3559 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |

3562 *'guicursor'* *'gcr'* *E545* *E546* *E548* *E549* | |
3563 'guicursor' 'gcr' string (default "n-v-c:block-Cursor/lCursor, | |

3572 r-cr:hor30,sm:block") | |
3573 global | |
3574 {not in Vi} | |
3575 {only available when compiled with GUI enabled, and | |
3576 for MS-DOS and Win32 console} | |
3577 This option tells Vim what the cursor should look like in different | |
10 | 3578 modes. It fully works in the GUI. In an MSDOS or Win32 console, only |
7 | 3579 the height of the cursor can be changed. This can be done by |
3580 specifying a block cursor, or a percentage for a vertical or | |
3581 horizontal cursor. | |
6727 | 3582 For a console the 't_SI', 't_SR', and 't_EI' escape sequences are |
3583 used. | |
7 | 3584 |
10 | 3585 The option is a comma separated list of parts. Each part consist of a |
7 | 3586 mode-list and an argument-list: |
3587 mode-list:argument-list,mode-list:argument-list,.. | |
3588 The mode-list is a dash separated list of these modes: | |
3589 n Normal mode | |
3590 v Visual mode | |
3591 ve Visual mode with 'selection' "exclusive" (same as 'v', | |
3592 if not specified) | |
3593 o Operator-pending mode | |
3594 i Insert mode | |
3595 r Replace mode | |
3596 c Command-line Normal (append) mode | |
3597 ci Command-line Insert mode | |
3598 cr Command-line Replace mode | |
3599 sm showmatch in Insert mode | |
3600 a all modes | |
3601 The argument-list is a dash separated list of these arguments: | |
3602 hor{N} horizontal bar, {N} percent of the character height | |
3603 ver{N} vertical bar, {N} percent of the character width | |
3604 block block cursor, fills the whole character | |
3605 [only one of the above three should be present] | |
3606 blinkwait{N} *cursor-blinking* | |
3607 blinkon{N} | |
3608 blinkoff{N} | |
3609 blink times for cursor: blinkwait is the delay before | |
3610 the cursor starts blinking, blinkon is the time that | |
3611 the cursor is shown and blinkoff is the time that the | |
3612 cursor is not shown. The times are in msec. When one | |
3613 of the numbers is zero, there is no blinking. The | |
3614 default is: "blinkwait700-blinkon400-blinkoff250". | |
3615 These numbers are used for a missing entry. This | |
3616 means that blinking is enabled by default. To switch | |
3617 blinking off you can use "blinkon0". The cursor only | |
3618 blinks when Vim is waiting for input, not while | |
3619 executing a command. | |
3620 To make the cursor blink in an xterm, see | |
3621 |xterm-blink|. | |
3622 {group-name} | |
3623 a highlight group name, that sets the color and font | |
3624 for the cursor | |
3625 {group-name}/{group-name} | |
3626 Two highlight group names, the first is used when | |
3627 no language mappings are used, the other when they | |
3628 are. |language-mapping| | |
3629 | |
3630 Examples of parts: | |
3631 n-c-v:block-nCursor in Normal, Command-line and Visual mode, use a | |
3632 block cursor with colors from the "nCursor" | |
3633 highlight group | |
3634 i-ci:ver30-iCursor-blinkwait300-blinkon200-blinkoff150 | |
3635 In Insert and Command-line Insert mode, use a | |
3636 30% vertical bar cursor with colors from the | |
3637 "iCursor" highlight group. Blink a bit | |
3638 faster. | |
3639 | |
3640 The 'a' mode is different. It will set the given argument-list for | |
3641 all modes. It does not reset anything to defaults. This can be used | |
3642 to do a common setting for all modes. For example, to switch off | |
3643 blinking: "a:blinkon0" | |
3644 | |
3645 Examples of cursor highlighting: > | |
3646 :highlight Cursor gui=reverse guifg=NONE guibg=NONE | |
3647 :highlight Cursor gui=NONE guifg=bg guibg=fg | |
3648 < | |
3649 *'guifont'* *'gfn'* | |
2908 | 3650 *E235* *E596* |
7 | 3651 'guifont' 'gfn' string (default "") |
3652 global | |
3653 {not in Vi} | |
3654 {only available when compiled with GUI enabled} | |
3655 This is a list of fonts which will be used for the GUI version of Vim. | |
3656 In its simplest form the value is just one font name. When | |
3657 the font cannot be found you will get an error message. To try other | |
3658 font names a list can be specified, font names separated with commas. | |
3659 The first valid font is used. | |
8 | 3660 |
170 | 3661 On systems where 'guifontset' is supported (X11) and 'guifontset' is |
3662 not empty, then 'guifont' is not used. | |

7 | 3672 Spaces after a comma are ignored. To include a comma in a font name |

3680 If none of the fonts can be loaded, Vim will keep the current setting. | |
3681 If an empty font list is given, Vim will try using other resource | |
3682 settings (for X, it will use the Vim.font resource), and finally it | |
3683 will try some builtin default which should always be there ("7x13" in | |

3749 {not available in the GTK+ GUI} |
7 | 3750 When not empty, specifies two (or more) fonts to be used. The first |
3751 one for normal English, the second one for your special language. See | |
3752 |xfontset|. | |
3753 Setting this option also means that all font names will be handled as | |
3754 a fontset name. Also the ones used for the "font" argument of the | |
3755 |:highlight| command. | |
3756 The fonts must match with the current locale. If fonts for the | |
3757 character sets that the current locale uses are not included, setting | |
3758 'guifontset' will fail. | |
3759 Note the difference between 'guifont' and 'guifontset': In 'guifont' | |
3760 the comma-separated names are alternative names, one of which will be | |
3761 used. In 'guifontset' the whole string is one fontset name, | |
3762 including the commas. It is not possible to specify alternative | |
3763 fontset names. | |
3764 This example works on many X11 systems: > | |

3773 for double-width characters. The first font that can be loaded is | |
3774 used. | |
3775 Note: The size of these fonts must be exactly twice as wide as the one | |
3776 specified with 'guifont' and the same height. | |

3788 If set and valid, 'guifontwide' is always used for double width | |
3789 characters, even if 'encoding' is not set to "utf-8". | |
3790 Vim does not attempt to find an appropriate value for 'guifontwide' | |
10 | 3791 automatically. If 'guifontwide' is empty Pango/Xft will choose the |
7 | 3792 font for characters not available in 'guifont'. Thus you do not need |

3819 {only available when compiled with GUI enabled} | |
8 | 3820 This option only has an effect in the GUI version of Vim. It is a |
7 | 3821 sequence of letters which describes what components and options of the |
3822 GUI should be used. | |
3823 To avoid problems with flags that are added in the future, use the | |
3824 "+=" and "-=" feature of ":set" |add-option-flags|. | |
3825 | |
3826 Valid letters are as follows: | |
1152 | 3827 *guioptions_a* *'go-a'* |
7 | 3828 'a' Autoselect: If present, then whenever VISUAL mode is started, |
3829 or the Visual area extended, Vim tries to become the owner of | |
3830 the windowing system's global selection. This means that the | |
3831 Visually highlighted text is available for pasting into other | |
3832 applications as well as into Vim itself. When the Visual mode | |
3833 ends, possibly due to an operation on the text, or when an | |
3834 application wants to paste the selection, the highlighted text | |
3835 is automatically yanked into the "* selection register. | |
3836 Thus the selection is still available for pasting into other | |
3837 applications after the VISUAL mode has ended. | |
3838 If not present, then Vim won't become the owner of the | |
3839 windowing system's global selection unless explicitly told to | |
3840 by a yank or delete operation for the "* register. | |
3841 The same applies to the modeless selection. | |

3857 choices. | |
1152 | 3858 *'go-e'* |
697 | 3859 'e' Add tab pages when indicated with 'showtabline'. |
688 | 3860 'guitablabel' can be used to change the text in the labels. |
3861 When 'e' is missing a non-GUI tab pages line may be used. | |
857 | 3862 The GUI tabs are only supported on some systems, currently |
1621 | 3863 GTK, Motif, Mac OS/X and MS-Windows. |
1152 | 3864 *'go-f'* |
7 | 3865 'f' Foreground: Don't use fork() to detach the GUI from the shell |
3866 where it was started. Use this for programs that wait for the | |
3867 editor to finish (e.g., an e-mail program). Alternatively you | |
3868 can use "gvim -f" or ":gui -f" to start the GUI in the | |
3869 foreground. |gui-fork| | |
3870 Note: Set this option in the vimrc file. The forking may have | |
819 | 3871 happened already when the |gvimrc| file is read. |
1152 | 3872 *'go-i'* |
7 | 3873 'i' Use a Vim icon. For GTK with KDE it is used in the left-upper |
3874 corner of the window. It's black&white on non-GTK, because of | |
3875 limitations of X11. For a color icon, see |X11-icon|. | |

4121 A history of ":" commands, and a history of previous search patterns | |
5991 | 4122 is remembered. This option decides how many entries may be stored in |
7 | 4123 each of these histories (see |cmdline-editing|). |
5991 | 4124 The maximum value is 10000. |
7 | 4125 NOTE: This option is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is |
4126 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |

4134 When on, the keyboard is mapped for the Hebrew character set. | |
4135 Normally you would set 'allowrevins' and use CTRL-_ in insert mode to | |
4136 toggle this option. See |rileft.txt|. | |
4137 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |

4145 When on, phonetic keyboard mapping is used. 'hkmap' must also be on. | |
4146 This is useful if you have a non-Hebrew keyboard. | |

4154 {not available when compiled without the | |
4155 |+extra_search| feature} | |
4156 When there is a previous search pattern, highlight all its matches. | |
4157 The type of highlighting used can be set with the 'l' occasion in the | |
4158 'highlight' option. This uses the "Search" highlight group by | |
4159 default. Note that only the matching text is highlighted, any offsets | |
4160 are not applied. | |
4161 See also: 'incsearch' and |:match|. | |
4162 When you get bored looking at the highlighted matches, you can turn it | |
4163 off with |:nohlsearch|. This does not change the option value, as | |
4164 soon as you use a search command, the highlighting comes back. | |
4165 'redrawtime' specifies the maximum time spent on finding matches. | |
4166 When the search pattern can match an end-of-line, Vim will try to | |
4167 highlight all of the matched text. However, this depends on where the | |
4168 search starts. This will be the first line in the window or the first | |
4169 line below a closed fold. A match in a previous line which is not | |
4170 drawn may not continue in a newly drawn line. | |
4171 You can specify whether the highlight status is restored on startup | |
4172 with the 'h' flag in 'viminfo' |viminfo-h|. | |
4173 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |

4177 global | |
4178 {not in Vi} | |
4179 {not available when compiled without the |+title| | |
4180 feature} | |
4181 When on, the icon text of the window will be set to the value of | |
4182 'iconstring' (if it is not empty), or to the name of the file | |
4183 currently being edited. Only the last part of the name is used. | |
4184 Overridden by the 'iconstring' option. | |
4185 Only works if the terminal supports setting window icons (currently | |
4186 only X11 GUI and terminals with a non-empty 't_IS' option - these are | |
4187 Unix xterm and iris-ansi by default, where 't_IS' is taken from the | |
4188 builtin termcap). | |
4189 When Vim was compiled with HAVE_X11 defined, the original icon will be | |
233 | 4190 restored if possible |X11|. See |X11-icon| for changing the icon on |
7 | 4191 X11. |
6259 | 4192 For MS-Windows the icon can be changed, see |windows-icon|. |

4196 global | |
4197 {not in Vi} | |
4198 {not available when compiled without the |+title| | |

4200 When this option is not empty, it will be used for the icon text of | |
4201 the window. This happens only when the 'icon' option is on. | |
4202 Only works if the terminal supports setting window icon text | |
4203 (currently only X11 GUI and terminals with a non-empty 't_IS' option). | |
4204 Does not work for MS Windows. | |
4205 When Vim was compiled with HAVE_X11 defined, the original icon will be | |
4206 restored if possible |X11|. | |
4207 When this option contains printf-style '%' items, they will be | |
10 | 4208 expanded according to the rules used for 'statusline'. See |
7 | 4209 'titlestring' for example settings. |

10 | 4361 Pattern to be used to find an include command. It is a search |

4365 Normally the 'isfname' option is used to recognize the file name that | |

4367 then the text matched from "\zs" to the end, or until "\ze" if it | |

4369 that are not in 'isfname', such as a space. You can then use | |

4428 {not in Vi} | |
4429 {not available when compiled without the |+cindent| | |
4430 or |+eval| features} | |
4431 Expression which is evaluated to obtain the proper indent for a line. | |
4432 It is used when a new line is created, for the |=| operator and | |
4433 in Insert mode as specified with the 'indentkeys' option. | |
4434 When this option is not empty, it overrules the 'cindent' and | |
2833 | 4435 'smartindent' indenting. When 'lisp' is set, this option is |
4436 overridden by the Lisp indentation algorithm. | |
7 | 4437 When 'paste' is set this option is not used for indenting. |
4438 The expression is evaluated with |v:lnum| set to the line number for | |
534 | 4439 which the indent is to be computed. The cursor is also in this line |
7 | 4440 when the expression is evaluated (but it may be moved around). |
4441 The expression must return the number of spaces worth of indent. It | |
4442 can return "-1" to keep the current indent (this means 'autoindent' is | |
4443 used for the indent). | |
4444 Functions useful for computing the indent are |indent()|, |cindent()| | |
4445 and |lispindent()|. | |
4446 The evaluation of the expression must not have side effects! It must | |
4447 not change the text, jump to another window, etc. Afterwards the | |
4448 cursor position is always restored, thus the cursor may be moved. | |
4449 Normally this option would be set to call a function: > | |
4450 :set indentexpr=GetMyIndent() | |
4451 < Error messages will be suppressed, unless the 'debug' option contains | |
4452 "msg". | |

4467 {not available when compiled without the |+cindent| | |
4468 feature} | |
4469 A list of keys that, when typed in Insert mode, cause reindenting of | |
4470 the current line. Only happens if 'indentexpr' isn't empty. | |
4471 The format is identical to 'cinkeys', see |indentkeys-format|. | |

4478 When doing keyword completion in insert mode |ins-completion|, and | |
1621 | 4479 'ignorecase' is also on, the case of the match is adjusted depending |
4480 on the typed text. If the typed text contains a lowercase letter | |
4481 where the match has an upper case letter, the completed part is made | |
4482 lowercase. If the typed text has no lowercase letters and the match | |
4483 has a lowercase letter where the typed text has an uppercase letter, | |
4484 and there is a letter before it, the completed part is made uppercase. | |
4485 With 'noinfercase' the match is used as-is. | |

4491 Makes Vim work in a way that Insert mode is the default mode. Useful | |

4495 - Use CTRL-O to execute one Normal mode command |i_CTRL-O|. When |
7 | 4496 this is a mapping, it is executed as if 'insertmode' was off. |
4497 Normal mode remains active until the mapping is finished. | |
4498 - Use CTRL-L to execute a number of Normal mode commands, then use | |
477 | 4499 <Esc> to get back to Insert mode. Note that CTRL-L moves the cursor |
4500 left, like <Esc> does when 'insertmode' isn't set. |i_CTRL-L| | |
7 | 4501 |
4502 These items change when 'insertmode' is set: | |
4503 - when starting to edit of a file, Vim goes to Insert mode. | |
4504 - <Esc> in Insert mode is a no-op and beeps. | |
4505 - <Esc> in Normal mode makes Vim go to Insert mode. | |
4506 - CTRL-L in Insert mode is a command, it is not inserted. | |
4507 - CTRL-Z in Insert mode suspends Vim, see |CTRL-Z|. *i_CTRL-Z* | |
4508 However, when <Esc> is used inside a mapping, it behaves like | |
4509 'insertmode' was not set. This was done to be able to use the same | |
4510 mappings with 'insertmode' set or not set. | |
4511 When executing commands with |:normal| 'insertmode' is not used. | |
4512 | |
4513 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |
4514 | |
4515 *'isfname'* *'isf'* | |
4516 'isfname' 'isf' string (default for MS-DOS, Win32 and OS/2: | |
4517 "@,48-57,/,\,.,-,_,+,,,#,$,%,{,},[,],:,@-@,!,~,=" | |
4518 for AMIGA: "@,48-57,/,.,-,_,+,,,$,:" | |

4520 for OS/390: "@,240-249,/,.,-,_,+,,,#,$,%,~,=" | |
4521 otherwise: "@,48-57,/,.,-,_,+,,,#,$,%,~,=") | |
4522 global | |
4523 {not in Vi} | |
4524 The characters specified by this option are included in file names and | |
4525 path names. Filenames are used for commands like "gf", "[i" and in | |
10 | 4526 the tags file. It is also used for "\f" in a |pattern|. |
7 | 4527 Multi-byte characters 256 and above are always included, only the |
4528 characters up to 255 are specified with this option. | |
4529 For UTF-8 the characters 0xa0 to 0xff are included as well. | |
1621 | 4530 Think twice before adding white space to this option. Although a |
4531 space may appear inside a file name, the effect will be that Vim | |
4532 doesn't know where a file name starts or ends when doing completion. | |
4533 It most likely works better without a space in 'isfname'. | |
7 | 4534 |
4535 Note that on systems using a backslash as path separator, Vim tries to | |
4536 do its best to make it work as you would expect. That is a bit | |
4537 tricky, since Vi originally used the backslash to escape special | |
4538 characters. Vim will not remove a backslash in front of a normal file | |
4539 name character on these systems, but it will on Unix and alikes. The | |
4540 '&' and '^' are not included by default, because these are special for | |
4541 cmd.exe. | |
4542 | |
4543 The format of this option is a list of parts, separated with commas. | |
10 | 4544 Each part can be a single character number or a range. A range is two |
4545 character numbers with '-' in between. A character number can be a | |
7 | 4546 decimal number between 0 and 255 or the ASCII character itself (does |
4547 not work for digits). Example: | |
4548 "_,-,128-140,#-43" (include '_' and '-' and the range | |
4549 128 to 140 and '#' to 43) | |
4550 If a part starts with '^', the following character number or range | |
4551 will be excluded from the option. The option is interpreted from left | |
4552 to right. Put the excluded character after the range where it is | |
4553 included. To include '^' itself use it as the last character of the | |
4554 option or the end of a range. Example: | |

4556 If the character is '@', all characters where isalpha() returns TRUE | |
4557 are included. Normally these are the characters a to z and A to Z, | |
4558 plus accented characters. To include '@' itself use "@-@". Examples: | |
4559 "@,^a-z" All alphabetic characters, excluding lower | |
1621 | 4560 case ASCII letters. |
7 | 4561 "a-z,A-Z,@-@" All letters plus the '@' character. |
4562 A comma can be included by using it where a character number is | |
4563 expected. Example: | |
4564 "48-57,,,_" Digits, comma and underscore. | |
4565 A comma can be excluded by prepending a '^'. Example: | |
4566 " -~,^,,9" All characters from space to '~', excluding | |
4567 comma, plus <Tab>. | |
4568 See |option-backslash| about including spaces and backslashes. | |

4576 The characters given by this option are included in identifiers. | |
4577 Identifiers are used in recognizing environment variables and after a | |
4578 match of the 'define' option. It is also used for "\i" in a | |
233 | 4579 |pattern|. See 'isfname' for a description of the format of this |
7 | 4580 option. |
4581 Careful: If you change this option, it might break expanding | |
10 | 4582 environment variables. E.g., when '/' is included and Vim tries to |
7 | 4583 expand "$HOME/.viminfo". Maybe you should change 'iskeyword' instead. |

10 | 4593 "w", "*", "[i", etc. It is also used for "\k" in a |pattern|. See |
7 | 4594 'isfname' for a description of the format of this option. For C |
4595 programs you could use "a-z,A-Z,48-57,_,.,-,>". | |
4596 For a help file it is set to all non-blank printable characters except | |
4597 '*', '"' and '|' (so that CTRL-] on a command finds the help for that | |
4598 command). | |
4599 When the 'lisp' option is on the '-' character is always included. | |

4732 :set langmap=zy,yz,ZY,YZ | |
4733 < | |
4734 The 'langmap' option is a list of parts, separated with commas. Each | |
4735 part can be in one of two forms: | |
4736 1. A list of pairs. Each pair is a "from" character immediately | |
4737 followed by the "to" character. Examples: "aA", "aAbBcC". | |
4738 2. A list of "from" characters, a semi-colon and a list of "to" | |
4739 characters. Example: "abc;ABC" | |
4740 Example: "aA,fgh;FGH,cCdDeE" | |
4741 Special characters need to be preceded with a backslash. These are | |
4742 ";", ',' and backslash itself. | |
4743 | |
4744 This will allow you to activate vim actions without having to switch | |
4745 back and forth between the languages. Your language characters will | |
4746 be understood as normal vim English characters (according to the | |
4747 langmap mappings) in the following cases: | |
4748 o Normal/Visual mode (commands, buffer/register names, user mappings) | |
4749 o Insert/Replace Mode: Register names after CTRL-R | |
4750 o Insert/Replace Mode: Mappings | |
4751 Characters entered in Command-line mode will NOT be affected by | |
4752 this option. Note that this option can be changed at any time | |
4753 allowing to switch between mappings for different languages/encodings. | |
4754 Use a mapping to avoid having to type it each time! | |

4828 {not available when compiled without the |+linebreak| |
7 | 4829 feature} |
6009 | 4830 If on, Vim will wrap long lines at a character in 'breakat' rather |
7 | 4831 than at the last character that fits on the screen. Unlike |
4832 'wrapmargin' and 'textwidth', this does not insert <EOL>s in the file, | |
6009 | 4833 it only affects the way the file is displayed, not its contents. |
4834 If 'breakindent' is set, line is visually indented. Then, the value | |
4835 of 'showbreak' is used to put in front of wrapped lines. This option | |
6026 | 4836 is not used when the 'wrap' option is off. |
7 | 4837 Note that <Tab> characters after an <EOL> are mostly not displayed |
4838 with the right amount of white space. | |
4839 | |
4840 *'lines'* *E593* | |
4841 'lines' number (default 24 or terminal height) | |
4842 global | |
4843 Number of lines of the Vim window. | |
4844 Normally you don't need to set this. It is done automatically by the | |
161 | 4845 terminal initialization code. Also see |posix-screen-size|. |
7 | 4846 When Vim is running in the GUI or in a resizable window, setting this |
4847 option will cause the window size to be changed. When you only want | |
4848 to use the size for the GUI, put the command in your |gvimrc| file. | |
4849 Vim limits the number of lines to what fits on the screen. You can | |
4850 use this command to get the tallest window possible: > | |
4851 :set lines=999 | |
571 | 4852 < Minimum value is 2, maximum value is 1000. |

4853 If you get fewer lines than expected, check the 'guiheadroom' option. |
7 | 4854 When you set this option and Vim is unable to change the physical |
4855 number of lines of the display, the display may be messed up. | |
4856 | |
4857 *'linespace'* *'lsp'* | |
4858 'linespace' 'lsp' number (default 0, 1 for Win32 GUI) | |
4859 global | |
4860 {not in Vi} | |
4861 {only in the GUI} | |
4862 Number of pixel lines inserted between characters. Useful if the font | |
4863 uses the full character cell height, making lines touch each other. | |
4864 When non-zero there is room for underlining. | |
180 | 4865 With some fonts there can be too much room between lines (to have |
4866 space for ascents and descents). Then it makes sense to set | |
4867 'linespace' to a negative value. This may cause display problems | |
4868 though! | |
7 | 4869 |
4870 *'lisp'* *'nolisp'* | |
4871 'lisp' boolean (default off) | |
4872 local to buffer | |
4873 {not available when compiled without the |+lispindent| | |
4874 feature} | |
4875 Lisp mode: When <Enter> is typed in insert mode set the indent for | |
4876 the next line to Lisp standards (well, sort of). Also happens with | |
4877 "cc" or "S". 'autoindent' must also be on for this to work. The 'p' | |
4878 flag in 'cpoptions' changes the method of indenting: Vi compatible or | |
4879 better. Also see 'lispwords'. | |
4880 The '-' character is included in keyword characters. Redefines the | |
4881 "=" operator to use this same indentation algorithm rather than | |
4882 calling an external program if 'equalprg' is empty. | |
4883 This option is not used when 'paste' is set. | |

7 | 5048 *'makeprg'* *'mp'* |
5049 'makeprg' 'mp' string (default "make", VMS: "MMS") | |
5050 global or local to buffer |global-local| | |
5051 {not in Vi} | |
1152 | 5052 Program to use for the ":make" command. See |:make_makeprg|. |
5690 | 5053 This option may contain '%' and '#' characters (see |:_%| and |:_#|), |
5054 which are expanded to the current and alternate file name. Use |::S| | |
5055 to escape file names in case they contain special characters. | |
1152 | 5056 Environment variables are expanded |:set_env|. See |option-backslash| |
5057 about including spaces and backslashes. | |
5058 Note that a '|' must be escaped twice: once for ":set" and once for | |
5059 the interpretation of a command. When you use a filter called | |
5060 "myfilter" do it like this: > | |
7 | 5061 :set makeprg=gmake\ \\\|\ myfilter |
5062 < The placeholder "$*" can be given (even multiple times) to specify | |
5063 where the arguments will be included, for example: > | |
5064 :set makeprg=latex\ \\\\nonstopmode\ \\\\input\\{$*} | |
5065 < This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
5066 security reasons. | |

5068 *'matchpairs'* *'mps'* | |
5069 'matchpairs' 'mps' string (default "(:),{:},[:]") | |
5070 local to buffer | |
5071 {not in Vi} | |
5072 Characters that form pairs. The |%| command jumps from one to the | |
4073 | 5073 other. |
5074 Only character pairs are allowed that are different, thus you cannot | |
5075 jump between two double quotes. | |
5076 The characters must be separated by a colon. | |
1152 | 5077 The pairs must be separated by a comma. Example for including '<' and |
5078 '>' (HTML): > | |
7 | 5079 :set mps+=<:> |
5080 | |
5081 < A more exotic example, to jump between the '=' and ';' in an | |
5082 assignment, useful for languages like C and Java: > | |
5083 :au FileType c,cpp,java set mps+==:; | |

5102 The maximum number of combining characters supported for displaying. | |
5103 Only used when 'encoding' is "utf-8". | |
5104 The default is OK for most languages. Hebrew may require 4. | |
5105 Maximum value is 6. | |
5106 Even when this option is set to 2 you can still edit text with more | |
5107 combining characters, you just can't see them. Use |g8| or |ga|. | |

189 | 5151 *E363* |
1152 | 5152 When Vim runs into the limit it gives an error message and mostly |
5153 behaves like CTRL-C was typed. | |
189 | 5154 Running into the limit often means that the pattern is very |
5155 inefficient or too complex. This may already happen with the pattern | |
5156 "\(.\)*" on a very long line. ".*" works much better. | |

5176 global | |
5177 {not in Vi} | |
5178 {not available when compiled without the |+menu| | |
5179 feature} | |
5180 Maximum number of items to use in a menu. Used for menus that are | |
5181 generated from a list of items, e.g., the Buffers menu. Changing this | |
5182 option has no direct effect, the menu must be refreshed first. | |

5185 'mkspellmem' 'msm' string (default "460000,2000,500") | |
5186 global | |
5187 {not in Vi} | |
5188 {not available when compiled without the |+syntax| | |
5189 feature} | |
5190 Parameters for |:mkspell|. This tunes when to start compressing the | |
5191 word tree. Compression can be slow when there are many words, but | |
5192 it's needed to avoid running out of memory. The amount of memory used | |
5193 per word depends very much on how similar the words are, that's why | |
5194 this tuning is complicated. | |
5195 | |
5196 There are three numbers, separated by commas: | |
5197 {start},{inc},{added} | |
5198 | |
5199 For most languages the uncompressed word tree fits in memory. {start} | |
5200 gives the amount of memory in Kbyte that can be used before any | |
5201 compression is done. It should be a bit smaller than the amount of | |
5202 memory that is available to Vim. | |
5203 | |
5204 When going over the {start} limit the {inc} number specifies the | |
5205 amount of memory in Kbyte that can be allocated before another | |
5206 compression is done. A low number means compression is done after | |
5207 less words are added, which is slow. A high number means more memory | |
5208 will be allocated. | |
5209 | |
5210 After doing compression, {added} times 1024 words can be added before | |
5211 the {inc} limit is ignored and compression is done when any extra | |
5212 amount of memory is needed. A low number means there is a smaller | |
5213 chance of hitting the {inc} limit, less memory is used but it's | |
5214 slower. | |
5215 | |
5216 The languages for which these numbers are important are Italian and | |
5217 Hungarian. The default works for when you have about 512 Mbyte. If | |
5218 you have 1 Gbyte you could use: > | |
5219 :set mkspellmem=900000,3000,800 | |
5220 < If you have less than 512 Mbyte |:mkspell| may fail for some | |
5221 languages, no matter what you set 'mkspellmem' to. | |
5222 | |
7 | 5223 *'modeline'* *'ml'* *'nomodeline'* *'noml'* |
1111 | 5224 'modeline' 'ml' boolean (Vim default: on (off for root), |
5225 Vi default: off) | |
7 | 5226 local to buffer |
5227 *'modelines'* *'mls'* | |
5228 'modelines' 'mls' number (default 5) | |
5229 global | |
5230 {not in Vi} | |
5231 If 'modeline' is on 'modelines' gives the number of lines that is | |
5232 checked for set commands. If 'modeline' is off or 'modelines' is zero | |
5233 no lines are checked. See |modeline|. | |
5234 NOTE: 'modeline' is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is | |
5235 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |
5236 | |
5237 *'modifiable'* *'ma'* *'nomodifiable'* *'noma'* | |
5238 'modifiable' 'ma' boolean (default on) | |
5239 local to buffer | |
5240 {not in Vi} *E21* | |
5241 When off the buffer contents cannot be changed. The 'fileformat' and | |
5242 'fileencoding' options also can't be changed. | |
10617 | 5243 Can be reset on startup with the |-M| command line argument. |
7 | 5244 |
5245 *'modified'* *'mod'* *'nomodified'* *'nomod'* | |
5246 'modified' 'mod' boolean (default off) | |
5247 local to buffer | |
5248 {not in Vi} | |
5249 When on, the buffer is considered to be modified. This option is set | |
5250 when: | |
5251 1. A change was made to the text since it was last written. Using the | |
5252 |undo| command to go back to the original text will reset the | |
5253 option. But undoing changes that were made before writing the | |
5254 buffer will set the option again, since the text is different from | |
5255 when it was written. | |
5256 2. 'fileformat' or 'fileencoding' is different from its original | |
5257 value. The original value is set when the buffer is read or | |
5258 written. A ":set nomodified" command also resets the original | |
5259 values to the current values and the 'modified' option will be | |
5260 reset. | |

5265 an explanation. | |

5281 set to "a" in |defaults.vim|) |
7 | 5282 global |
5283 {not in Vi} | |
5284 Enable the use of the mouse. Only works for certain terminals | |
1621 | 5285 (xterm, MS-DOS, Win32 |win32-mouse|, QNX pterm, *BSD console with |
5286 sysmouse and Linux console with gpm). For using the mouse in the | |
5287 GUI, see |gui-mouse|. | |
7 | 5288 The mouse can be enabled for different modes: |
5289 n Normal mode | |
5290 v Visual mode | |
5291 i Insert mode | |
5292 c Command-line mode | |
5293 h all previous modes when editing a help file | |
5294 a all previous modes | |
5295 r for |hit-enter| and |more-prompt| prompt | |
5296 Normally you would enable the mouse in all four modes with: > | |
5297 :set mouse=a | |
5298 < When the mouse is not enabled, the GUI will still use the mouse for | |
5299 modeless selection. This doesn't move the text cursor. | |
5300 | |
5301 See |mouse-using|. Also see |'clipboard'|. | |
5302 | |
5303 Note: When enabling the mouse in a terminal, copy/paste will use the | |
10 | 5304 "* register if there is access to an X-server. The xterm handling of |
7 | 5305 the mouse buttons can still be used by keeping the shift key pressed. |
5306 Also see the 'clipboard' option. | |
5307 | |

5309 'mousefocus' 'mousef' boolean (default off) | |
5310 global | |
5311 {not in Vi} | |
5312 {only works in the GUI} | |
5313 The window that the mouse pointer is on is automatically activated. | |
5314 When changing the window layout or window focus in another way, the | |
5315 mouse pointer is moved to the window with keyboard focus. Off is the | |
5316 default because it makes using the pull down menus a little goofy, as | |
5317 a pointer transit may activate a window unintentionally. | |
5318 | |
5319 *'mousehide'* *'mh'* *'nomousehide'* *'nomh'* | |
5320 'mousehide' 'mh' boolean (default on) | |
5321 global | |
5322 {not in Vi} | |
5323 {only works in the GUI} | |
5324 When on, the mouse pointer is hidden when characters are typed. | |
5325 The mouse pointer is restored when the mouse is moved. | |
5326 | |
5327 *'mousemodel'* *'mousem'* | |
5328 'mousemodel' 'mousem' string (default "extend", "popup" for MS-DOS and Win32) | |
5329 global | |
5330 {not in Vi} | |
5331 Sets the model to use for the mouse. The name mostly specifies what | |
5332 the right mouse button is used for: | |
5333 extend Right mouse button extends a selection. This works | |
5334 like in an xterm. | |
5335 popup Right mouse button pops up a menu. The shifted left | |
5336 mouse button extends a selection. This works like | |
233 | 5337 with Microsoft Windows. |
7 | 5338 popup_setpos Like "popup", but the cursor will be moved to the |
5339 position where the mouse was clicked, and thus the | |
5340 selected operation will act upon the clicked object. | |
5341 If clicking inside a selection, that selection will | |
233 | 5342 be acted upon, i.e. no cursor move. This implies of |
7 | 5343 course, that right clicking outside a selection will |
5344 end Visual mode. | |
5345 Overview of what button does what for each model: | |
5346 mouse extend popup(_setpos) ~ | |
5347 left click place cursor place cursor | |
5348 left drag start selection start selection | |
5349 shift-left search word extend selection | |
5350 right click extend selection popup menu (place cursor) | |
5351 right drag extend selection - | |
5352 middle click paste paste | |
5353 | |
5354 In the "popup" model the right mouse button produces a pop-up menu. | |
5355 You need to define this first, see |popup-menu|. | |
5356 | |
5357 Note that you can further refine the meaning of buttons with mappings. | |
5358 See |gui-mouse-mapping|. But mappings are NOT used for modeless | |
5359 selection (because that's handled in the GUI code directly). | |
5360 | |
5361 The 'mousemodel' option is set by the |:behave| command. | |
5362 | |
5363 *'mouseshape'* *'mouses'* *E547* | |
5364 'mouseshape' 'mouses' string (default "i:beam,r:beam,s:updown,sd:cross, | |
233 | 5365 m:no,ml:up-arrow,v:rightup-arrow") |
7 | 5366 global |
5367 {not in Vi} | |
5368 {only available when compiled with the |+mouseshape| | |
5369 feature} | |
5370 This option tells Vim what the mouse pointer should look like in | |
5371 different modes. The option is a comma separated list of parts, much | |
5372 like used for 'guicursor'. Each part consist of a mode/location-list | |
5373 and an argument-list: | |
5374 mode-list:shape,mode-list:shape,.. | |
5375 The mode-list is a dash separated list of these modes/locations: | |
5376 In a normal window: ~ | |
5377 n Normal mode | |
5378 v Visual mode | |
5379 ve Visual mode with 'selection' "exclusive" (same as 'v', | |
5380 if not specified) | |
5381 o Operator-pending mode | |
5382 i Insert mode | |
5383 r Replace mode | |
5384 | |
5385 Others: ~ | |
5386 c appending to the command-line | |
5387 ci inserting in the command-line | |
5388 cr replacing in the command-line | |
5389 m at the 'Hit ENTER' or 'More' prompts | |
5390 ml idem, but cursor in the last line | |
5391 e any mode, pointer below last window | |
5392 s any mode, pointer on a status line | |
5393 sd any mode, while dragging a status line | |
5394 vs any mode, pointer on a vertical separator line | |
5395 vd any mode, while dragging a vertical separator line | |
5396 a everywhere | |
5397 | |
5398 The shape is one of the following: | |
5399 avail name looks like ~ | |
5400 w x arrow Normal mouse pointer | |
5401 w x blank no pointer at all (use with care!) | |
5402 w x beam I-beam | |
5403 w x updown up-down sizing arrows | |
5404 w x leftright left-right sizing arrows | |
5405 w x busy The system's usual busy pointer | |
5406 w x no The system's usual 'no input' pointer | |
5407 x udsizing indicates up-down resizing | |
5408 x lrsizing indicates left-right resizing | |
5409 x crosshair like a big thin + | |
5410 x hand1 black hand | |
5411 x hand2 white hand | |
5412 x pencil what you write with | |
5413 x question big ? | |
5414 x rightup-arrow arrow pointing right-up | |
5415 w x up-arrow arrow pointing up | |
5416 x <number> any X11 pointer number (see X11/cursorfont.h) | |
5417 | |
5418 The "avail" column contains a 'w' if the shape is available for Win32, | |
5419 x for X11. | |
5420 Any modes not specified or shapes not available use the normal mouse | |
5421 pointer. | |
5422 | |
5423 Example: > | |
5424 :set mouseshape=s:udsizing,m:no | |
5425 < will make the mouse turn to a sizing arrow over the status lines and | |
5426 indicate no input when the hit-enter prompt is displayed (since | |
5427 clicking the mouse has no effect in this state.) | |
5428 | |
5429 *'mousetime'* *'mouset'* | |
5430 'mousetime' 'mouset' number (default 500) | |
5431 global | |
5432 {not in Vi} | |
5433 Only for GUI, MS-DOS, Win32 and Unix with xterm. Defines the maximum | |
5434 time in msec between two mouse clicks for the second click to be | |
5435 recognized as a multi click. | |
5436 | |
14 | 5437 *'mzquantum'* *'mzq'* |
5438 'mzquantum' 'mzq' number (default 100) | |
5439 global | |
5440 {not in Vi} | |
5441 {not available when compiled without the |+mzscheme| | |
5442 feature} | |
5443 The number of milliseconds between polls for MzScheme threads. | |
5444 Negative or zero value means no thread scheduling. | |
11160 | 5445 NOTE: This option is set to the Vim default value when 'compatible' |
5446 is reset. | |

10 | 5577 Put Vim in Paste mode. This is useful if you want to cut or copy |
5578 some text from one window and paste it in Vim. This will avoid | |
7 | 5579 unexpected effects. |
5580 Setting this option is useful when using Vim in a terminal, where Vim | |
10 | 5581 cannot distinguish between typed text and pasted text. In the GUI, Vim |
7 | 5582 knows about pasting and will mostly do the right thing without 'paste' |
5583 being set. The same is true for a terminal where Vim handles the | |
5584 mouse clicks itself. | |
148 | 5585 This option is reset when starting the GUI. Thus if you set it in |
5586 your .vimrc it will work in a terminal, but not in the GUI. Setting | |
5587 'paste' in the GUI has side effects: e.g., the Paste toolbar button | |
5588 will no longer work in Insert mode, because it uses a mapping. | |
7 | 5589 When the 'paste' option is switched on (also when it was already on): |
5590 - mapping in Insert mode and Command-line mode is disabled | |
5591 - abbreviations are disabled | |
5592 - 'autoindent' is reset | |

7 | 5606 - 'lisp' |
5607 NOTE: When you start editing another file while the 'paste' option is | |
5608 on, settings from the modelines or autocommands may change the | |
5609 settings again, causing trouble when pasting text. You might want to | |
5610 set the 'paste' option again. | |
5611 When the 'paste' option is reset the mentioned options are restored to | |
5612 the value before the moment 'paste' was switched from off to on. | |
5613 Resetting 'paste' before ever setting it does not have any effect. | |
5614 Since mapping doesn't work while 'paste' is active, you need to use | |
5615 the 'pastetoggle' option to toggle the 'paste' option with some key. | |
5616 | |
5617 *'pastetoggle'* *'pt'* | |
5618 'pastetoggle' 'pt' string (default "") | |
5619 global | |
5620 {not in Vi} | |
5621 When non-empty, specifies the key sequence that toggles the 'paste' | |
5622 option. This is like specifying a mapping: > | |
5623 :map {keys} :set invpaste<CR> | |
5624 < Where {keys} is the value of 'pastetoggle'. | |
5625 The difference is that it will work even when 'paste' is set. | |
5626 'pastetoggle' works in Insert mode and Normal mode, but not in | |
5627 Command-line mode. | |
5628 Mappings are checked first, thus overrule 'pastetoggle'. However, | |
5629 when 'paste' is on mappings are ignored in Insert mode, thus you can do | |
5630 this: > | |
5631 :map <F10> :set paste<CR> | |

5655 When non-empty the oldest version of a file is kept. This can be used | |
5656 to keep the original version of a file if you are changing files in a | |
5657 source distribution. Only the first time that a file is written a | |
5658 copy of the original file will be kept. The name of the copy is the | |
5659 name of the original file with the string in the 'patchmode' option | |
5660 appended. This option should start with a dot. Use a string like | |
5661 ".org". 'backupdir' must not be empty for this to work (Detail: The | |
5662 backup file is renamed to the patchmode file after the new file has | |
5663 been successfully written, that's why it must be possible to write a | |
5664 backup file). If there was no file to be backed up, an empty file is | |
5665 created. | |
5666 When the 'backupskip' pattern matches, a patchmode file is not made. | |
5667 Using 'patchmode' for compressed files appends the extension at the | |
5668 end (e.g., "file.gz.orig"), thus the resulting name isn't always | |
5669 recognized as a compressed file. | |

5678 This is a list of directories which will be searched when using the | |
1668 | 5679 |gf|, [f, ]f, ^Wf, |:find|, |:sfind|, |:tabfind| and other commands, |
5680 provided that the file being searched for has a relative path (not | |
5681 starting with "/", "./" or "../"). The directories in the 'path' | |
5682 option may be relative or absolute. | |
7 | 5683 - Use commas to separate directory names: > |
5684 :set path=.,/usr/local/include,/usr/include | |
5685 < - Spaces can also be used to separate directory names (for backwards | |
5686 compatibility with version 3.0). To have a space in a directory | |
5687 name, precede it with an extra backslash, and escape the space: > | |
5688 :set path=.,/dir/with\\\ space | |
5689 < - To include a comma in a directory name precede it with an extra | |
5690 backslash: > | |
5691 :set path=.,/dir/with\\,comma | |
5692 < - To search relative to the directory of the current file, use: > | |
5693 :set path=. | |
5694 < - To search in the current directory use an empty string between two | |
5695 commas: > | |
5696 :set path=,, | |
5697 < - A directory name may end in a ':' or '/'. | |
5698 - Environment variables are expanded |:set_env|. | |
5699 - When using |netrw.vim| URLs can be used. For example, adding | |
5700 "http://www.vim.org" will make ":find index.html" work. | |
1668 | 5701 - Search upwards and downwards in a directory tree using "*", "**" and |
5702 ";". See |file-searching| for info and syntax. | |
7 | 5703 {not available when compiled without the |+path_extra| feature} |
5704 - Careful with '\' characters, type two to get one in the option: > | |
5705 :set path=.,c:\\include | |
5706 < Or just use '/' instead: > | |
5707 :set path=.,c:/include | |
5708 < Don't forget "." or files won't even be found in the same directory as | |
5709 the file! | |
10 | 5710 The maximum length is limited. How much depends on the system, mostly |
7 | 5711 it is something like 256 or 1024 characters. |
5712 You can check if all the include files are found, using the value of | |
5713 'path', see |:checkpath|. | |
5714 The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
5715 directories from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
5716 uses another default. To remove the current directory use: > | |
5717 :set path-= | |
5718 < To add the current directory use: > | |
5719 :set path+= | |
5720 < To use an environment variable, you probably need to replace the | |
5721 separator. Here is an example to append $INCL, in which directory | |
5722 names are separated with a semi-colon: > | |
5723 :let &path = &path . "," . substitute($INCL, ';', ',', 'g') | |
5724 < Replace the ';' with a ':' or whatever separator is used. Note that | |
5725 this doesn't work when $INCL contains a comma or white space. | |

5743 When changing the indent of the current line, preserve as much of the | |
5744 indent structure as possible. Normally the indent is replaced by a | |
5745 series of tabs followed by spaces as required (unless |'expandtab'| is | |
5746 enabled, in which case only spaces are used). Enabling this option | |
5747 means the indent will preserve as many existing characters as possible | |
5748 for indenting, and only add additional tabs or spaces as required. | |
1621 | 5749 'expandtab' does not apply to the preserved white space, a Tab remains |
5750 a Tab. | |
7 | 5751 NOTE: When using ">>" multiple times the resulting indent is a mix of |
5752 tabs and spaces. You might not like this. | |

6119 When on, display orientation becomes right-to-left, i.e., characters | |

6121 Using this option, it is possible to edit files for languages that | |
6122 are written from the right to the left such as Hebrew and Arabic. | |
6123 This option is per window, so it is possible to edit mixed files | |
6124 simultaneously, or to view the same file in both ways (this is | |
6125 useful whenever you have a mixed text file with both right-to-left | |
6126 and left-to-right strings so that both sets are displayed properly | |
6127 in different windows). Also see |rileft.txt|. | |

6136 right-to-left mode for a group of commands: | |
6137 | |
6138 search "/" and "?" commands | |
6139 | |
6140 This is useful for languages such as Hebrew, Arabic and Farsi. | |
6141 The 'rightleft' option must be set for 'rightleftcmd' to take effect. | |

7 | 6268 Note that, unlike 'path', no wildcards like "**" are allowed. Normal |
6269 wildcards are allowed, but can significantly slow down searching for | |
10 | 6270 runtime files. For speed, use as few items as possible and avoid |
7 | 6271 wildcards. |
6272 See |:runtime|. | |
6273 Example: > | |
6274 :set runtimepath=~/vimruntime,/mygroup/vim,$VIMRUNTIME | |
6275 < This will use the directory "~/vimruntime" first (containing your | |
6276 personal Vim runtime files), then "/mygroup/vim" (shared between a | |
6277 group of people) and finally "$VIMRUNTIME" (the distributed runtime | |
6278 files). | |
6279 You probably should always include $VIMRUNTIME somewhere, to use the | |
6280 distributed runtime files. You can put a directory before $VIMRUNTIME | |
6281 to find files which replace a distributed runtime files. You can put | |
6282 a directory after $VIMRUNTIME to find files which add to distributed | |
6283 runtime files. | |

6287 *'scroll'* *'scr'* | |
6288 'scroll' 'scr' number (default: half the window height) | |

6290 Number of lines to scroll with CTRL-U and CTRL-D commands. Will be | |
6291 set to half the number of lines in the window when the window size | |
6292 changes. If you give a count to the CTRL-U or CTRL-D command it will | |
10 | 6293 be used as the new value for 'scroll'. Reset to half the window |
7 | 6294 height with ":set scroll=0". {Vi is a bit different: 'scroll' gives |
6295 the number of screen lines instead of file lines, makes a difference | |
6296 when lines wrap} | |
6297 | |
6298 *'scrollbind'* *'scb'* *'noscrollbind'* *'noscb'* | |
6299 'scrollbind' 'scb' boolean (default off) | |
6300 local to window | |
6301 {not in Vi} | |
6302 {not available when compiled without the |+scrollbind| | |
6303 feature} | |
6304 See also |scroll-binding|. When this option is set, the current | |
6305 window scrolls as other scrollbind windows (windows that also have | |
6306 this option set) scroll. This option is useful for viewing the | |
6307 differences between two versions of a file, see 'diff'. | |
6308 See |'scrollopt'| for options that determine how this option should be | |
6309 interpreted. | |
6310 This option is mostly reset when splitting a window to edit another | |
6311 file. This means that ":split | edit file" results in two windows | |
6312 with scroll-binding, but ":split file" does not. | |
6313 | |
6314 *'scrolljump'* *'sj'* | |
6315 'scrolljump' 'sj' number (default 1) | |
6316 global | |
6317 {not in Vi} | |
6318 Minimal number of lines to scroll when the cursor gets off the | |
6319 screen (e.g., with "j"). Not used for scroll commands (e.g., CTRL-E, | |
6320 CTRL-D). Useful if your terminal scrolls very slowly. | |
532 | 6321 When set to a negative number from -1 to -100 this is used as the |
6322 percentage of the window height. Thus -50 scrolls half the window | |
6323 height. | |
7 | 6324 NOTE: This option is set to 1 when 'compatible' is set. |

6333 in the middle of the window (except at the start or end of the file or | |
6334 when long lines wrap). | |
6335 For scrolling horizontally see 'sidescrolloff'. | |
6336 NOTE: This option is set to 0 when 'compatible' is set. | |
6337 | |
6338 *'scrollopt'* *'sbo'* | |
6339 'scrollopt' 'sbo' string (default "ver,jump") | |
6340 global | |
6341 {not available when compiled without the |+scrollbind| | |
6342 feature} | |
6343 {not in Vi} | |
6344 This is a comma-separated list of words that specifies how | |
236 | 6345 'scrollbind' windows should behave. 'sbo' stands for ScrollBind |
6346 Options. | |
7 | 6347 The following words are available: |
6348 ver Bind vertical scrolling for 'scrollbind' windows | |
6349 hor Bind horizontal scrolling for 'scrollbind' windows | |
6350 jump Applies to the offset between two windows for vertical | |
6351 scrolling. This offset is the difference in the first | |
6352 displayed line of the bound windows. When moving | |
6353 around in a window, another 'scrollbind' window may | |
6354 reach a position before the start or after the end of | |
6355 the buffer. The offset is not changed though, when | |
6356 moving back the 'scrollbind' window will try to scroll | |
6357 to the desired position when possible. | |
6358 When now making that window the current one, two | |
6359 things can be done with the relative offset: | |
6360 1. When "jump" is not included, the relative offset is | |
6361 adjusted for the scroll position in the new current | |
6362 window. When going back to the other window, the | |
1152 | 6363 new relative offset will be used. |
7 | 6364 2. When "jump" is included, the other windows are |
6365 scrolled to keep the same relative offset. When | |
6366 going back to the other window, it still uses the | |
6367 same relative offset. | |
6368 Also see |scroll-binding|. | |
819 | 6369 When 'diff' mode is active there always is vertical scroll binding, |
6370 even when "ver" isn't there. | |
7 | 6371 |
6372 *'sections'* *'sect'* | |
6373 'sections' 'sect' string (default "SHNHH HUnhsh") | |
6374 global | |
6375 Specifies the nroff macros that separate sections. These are pairs of | |
6376 two letters (See |object-motions|). The default makes a section start | |
6377 at the nroff macros ".SH", ".NH", ".H", ".HU", ".nh" and ".sh". | |
6378 | |
6379 *'secure'* *'nosecure'* *E523* | |
6380 'secure' boolean (default off) | |
6381 global | |
6382 {not in Vi} | |
6383 When on, ":autocmd", shell and write commands are not allowed in | |
6384 ".vimrc" and ".exrc" in the current directory and map commands are | |
6385 displayed. Switch it off only if you know that you will not run into | |
6386 problems, or when the 'exrc' option is off. On Unix this option is | |
6387 only used if the ".vimrc" or ".exrc" is not owned by you. This can be | |
10 | 6388 dangerous if the systems allows users to do a "chown". You better set |
7 | 6389 'secure' at the end of your ~/.vimrc then. |
6390 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
6391 security reasons. | |
6392 | |
6393 *'selection'* *'sel'* | |
6394 'selection' 'sel' string (default "inclusive") | |
6395 global | |
6396 {not in Vi} | |
6397 This option defines the behavior of the selection. It is only used | |
6398 in Visual and Select mode. | |
6399 Possible values: | |
6400 value past line inclusive ~ | |
6401 old no yes | |
6402 inclusive yes yes | |
6403 exclusive yes no | |
6404 "past line" means that the cursor is allowed to be positioned one | |
6405 character past the line. | |
6406 "inclusive" means that the last character of the selection is included | |
6407 in an operation. For example, when "x" is used to delete the | |
6408 selection. | |

6471 with absolute paths. |
7 | 6472 "slash" and "unix" are useful on Windows when sharing session files |
6473 with Unix. The Unix version of Vim cannot source dos format scripts, | |
6474 but the Windows version of Vim can source unix format scripts. | |
6475 | |
6476 *'shell'* *'sh'* *E91* | |
6477 'shell' 'sh' string (default $SHELL or "sh", | |
6478 MS-DOS and Win32: "command.com" or | |
6479 "cmd.exe", OS/2: "cmd") | |
6480 global | |
6481 Name of the shell to use for ! and :! commands. When changing the | |
6482 value also check these options: 'shelltype', 'shellpipe', 'shellslash' | |
6483 'shellredir', 'shellquote', 'shellxquote' and 'shellcmdflag'. | |
10 | 6484 It is allowed to give an argument to the command, e.g. "csh -f". |
7 | 6485 See |option-backslash| about including spaces and backslashes. |
6486 Environment variables are expanded |:set_env|. | |
6487 If the name of the shell contains a space, you might need to enclose | |
6488 it in quotes. Example: > | |
6489 :set shell=\"c:\program\ files\unix\sh.exe\"\ -f | |
6490 < Note the backslash before each quote (to avoid starting a comment) and | |
10 | 6491 each space (to avoid ending the option value). Also note that the |
7 | 6492 "-f" is not inside the quotes, because it is not part of the command |
6493 name. And Vim automagically recognizes the backslashes that are path | |
6494 separators. | |
6495 Under MS-Windows, when the executable ends in ".com" it must be | |
6496 included. Thus setting the shell to "command.com" or "4dos.com" | |
6497 works, but "command" and "4dos" do not work for all commands (e.g., | |
6498 filtering). | |
6499 For unknown reasons, when using "4dos.com" the current directory is | |
6500 changed to "C:\". To avoid this set 'shell' like this: > | |
6501 :set shell=command.com\ /c\ 4dos | |
6502 < This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
6503 security reasons. | |
6504 | |
6505 *'shellcmdflag'* *'shcf'* | |
3356 | 6506 'shellcmdflag' 'shcf' string (default: "-c"; |
3371 | 6507 MS-DOS and Win32, when 'shell' does not |
6508 contain "sh" somewhere: "/c") | |
7 | 6509 global |
6510 {not in Vi} | |
6511 Flag passed to the shell to execute "!" and ":!" commands; e.g., | |
6512 "bash.exe -c ls" or "command.com /c dir". For the MS-DOS-like | |
6513 systems, the default is set according to the value of 'shell', to | |
11262 | 6514 reduce the need to set this option by the user. |
3082 | 6515 On Unix it can have more than one flag. Each white space separated |
6516 part is passed as an argument to the shell command. | |
6517 See |option-backslash| about including spaces and backslashes. | |
6518 Also see |dos-shell| for MS-DOS and MS-Windows. | |
7 | 6519 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for |
6520 security reasons. | |
6521 | |
6522 *'shellpipe'* *'sp'* | |
6523 'shellpipe' 'sp' string (default ">", "| tee", "|& tee" or "2>&1| tee") | |
6524 global | |
6525 {not in Vi} | |
6526 {not available when compiled without the |+quickfix| | |
6527 feature} | |
6528 String to be used to put the output of the ":make" command in the | |
10 | 6529 error file. See also |:make_makeprg|. See |option-backslash| about |
7 | 6530 including spaces and backslashes. |
6531 The name of the temporary file can be represented by "%s" if necessary | |
6532 (the file name is appended automatically if no %s appears in the value | |
6533 of this option). | |
6534 For the Amiga and MS-DOS the default is ">". The output is directly | |
6535 saved in a file and not echoed to the screen. | |
6536 For Unix the default it "| tee". The stdout of the compiler is saved | |
6537 in a file and echoed to the screen. If the 'shell' option is "csh" or | |
6538 "tcsh" after initializations, the default becomes "|& tee". If the | |
2788 | 6539 'shell' option is "sh", "ksh", "mksh", "pdksh", "zsh" or "bash" the |
6540 default becomes "2>&1| tee". This means that stderr is also included. | |
6541 Before using the 'shell' option a path is removed, thus "/bin/sh" uses | |
6542 "sh". | |
7 | 6543 The initialization of this option is done after reading the ".vimrc" |
6544 and the other initializations, so that when the 'shell' option is set | |
6545 there, the 'shellpipe' option changes automatically, unless it was | |
6546 explicitly set before. | |
6547 When 'shellpipe' is set to an empty string, no redirection of the | |
6548 ":make" output will be done. This is useful if you use a 'makeprg' | |
6549 that writes to 'makeef' by itself. If you want no piping, but do | |
6550 want to include the 'makeef', set 'shellpipe' to a single space. | |
6551 Don't forget to precede the space with a backslash: ":set sp=\ ". | |
6552 In the future pipes may be used for filtering and this option will | |
6553 become obsolete (at least for Unix). | |
6554 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
6555 security reasons. | |
6556 | |
6557 *'shellquote'* *'shq'* | |
6558 'shellquote' 'shq' string (default: ""; MS-DOS and Win32, when 'shell' | |
6559 contains "sh" somewhere: "\"") | |
6560 global | |
6561 {not in Vi} | |
6562 Quoting character(s), put around the command passed to the shell, for | |
6563 the "!" and ":!" commands. The redirection is kept outside of the | |
6564 quoting. See 'shellxquote' to include the redirection. It's | |
6565 probably not useful to set both options. | |
6566 This is an empty string by default. Only known to be useful for | |
6567 third-party shells on MS-DOS-like systems, such as the MKS Korn Shell | |
6568 or bash, where it should be "\"". The default is adjusted according | |
6569 the value of 'shell', to reduce the need to set this option by the | |
6570 user. See |dos-shell|. | |
6571 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
6572 security reasons. | |
6573 | |
6574 *'shellredir'* *'srr'* | |
6575 'shellredir' 'srr' string (default ">", ">&" or ">%s 2>&1") | |
6576 global | |
6577 {not in Vi} | |
6578 String to be used to put the output of a filter command in a temporary | |
6579 file. See also |:!|. See |option-backslash| about including spaces | |
6580 and backslashes. | |
6581 The name of the temporary file can be represented by "%s" if necessary | |
6582 (the file name is appended automatically if no %s appears in the value | |
6583 of this option). | |
6584 The default is ">". For Unix, if the 'shell' option is "csh", "tcsh" | |
6585 or "zsh" during initializations, the default becomes ">&". If the | |
6586 'shell' option is "sh", "ksh" or "bash" the default becomes | |
6587 ">%s 2>&1". This means that stderr is also included. | |
6588 For Win32, the Unix checks are done and additionally "cmd" is checked | |
6589 for, which makes the default ">%s 2>&1". Also, the same names with | |
6590 ".exe" appended are checked for. | |
6591 The initialization of this option is done after reading the ".vimrc" | |
6592 and the other initializations, so that when the 'shell' option is set | |
6593 there, the 'shellredir' option changes automatically unless it was | |
6594 explicitly set before. | |
6595 In the future pipes may be used for filtering and this option will | |
6596 become obsolete (at least for Unix). | |
6597 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
6598 security reasons. | |
6599 | |
6600 *'shellslash'* *'ssl'* *'noshellslash'* *'nossl'* | |
6601 'shellslash' 'ssl' boolean (default off) | |
6602 global | |
6603 {not in Vi} {only for MSDOS, MS-Windows and OS/2} | |
6604 When set, a forward slash is used when expanding file names. This is | |
6605 useful when a Unix-like shell is used instead of command.com or | |
6606 cmd.exe. Backward slashes can still be typed, but they are changed to | |
6607 forward slashes by Vim. | |
6608 Note that setting or resetting this option has no effect for some | |
6609 existing file names, thus this option needs to be set before opening | |
6610 any file for best results. This might change in the future. | |
6611 'shellslash' only works when a backslash can be used as a path | |
6612 separator. To test if this is so use: > | |
6613 if exists('+shellslash') | |
6614 < | |
168 | 6615 *'shelltemp'* *'stmp'* *'noshelltemp'* *'nostmp'* |
6616 'shelltemp' 'stmp' boolean (Vi default off, Vim default on) | |
6617 global | |
6618 {not in Vi} | |
6619 When on, use temp files for shell commands. When off use a pipe. | |
6620 When using a pipe is not possible temp files are used anyway. | |
2965 | 6621 Currently a pipe is only supported on Unix and MS-Windows 2K and |
6622 later. You can check it with: > | |
168 | 6623 :if has("filterpipe") |
6624 < The advantage of using a pipe is that nobody can read the temp file | |
6625 and the 'shell' command does not need to support redirection. | |
6626 The advantage of using a temp file is that the file type and encoding | |
6627 can be detected. | |
6628 The |FilterReadPre|, |FilterReadPost| and |FilterWritePre|, | |
6629 |FilterWritePost| autocommands event are not triggered when | |
6630 'shelltemp' is off. | |

6639 {not in Vi} {only for the Amiga} | |
6640 On the Amiga this option influences the way how the commands work | |
6641 which use a shell. | |
6642 0 and 1: always use the shell | |
6643 2 and 3: use the shell only to filter lines | |
6644 4 and 5: use shell only for ':sh' command | |
6645 When not using the shell, the command is executed directly. | |
6646 | |
6647 0 and 2: use "shell 'shellcmdflag' cmd" to start external commands | |
6648 1 and 3: use "shell cmd" to start external commands | |

6653 global | |
6654 {not in Vi} | |
6655 When 'shellxquote' is set to "(" then the characters listed in this | |
6656 option will be escaped with a '^' character. This makes it possible | |
6657 to execute most external commands with cmd.exe. | |
6658 | |
7 | 6659 *'shellxquote'* *'sxq'* |
6660 'shellxquote' 'sxq' string (default: ""; | |

6665 global | |
6666 {not in Vi} | |
6667 Quoting character(s), put around the command passed to the shell, for | |
6668 the "!" and ":!" commands. Includes the redirection. See | |
6669 'shellquote' to exclude the redirection. It's probably not useful | |
6670 to set both options. | |
3359 | 6671 When the value is '(' then ')' is appended. When the value is '"(' |
6672 then ')"' is appended. | |
6673 When the value is '(' then also see 'shellxescape'. | |
3352 | 6674 This is an empty string by default on most systems, but is known to be |
6675 useful for on Win32 version, either for cmd.exe which automatically | |
6676 strips off the first and last quote on a command, or 3rd-party shells | |
6677 such as the MKS Korn Shell or bash, where it should be "\"". The | |
6678 default is adjusted according the value of 'shell', to reduce the need | |
6679 to set this option by the user. See |dos-shell|. | |
7 | 6680 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for |
6681 security reasons. | |

6683 *'shiftround'* *'sr'* *'noshiftround'* *'nosr'* | |
6684 'shiftround' 'sr' boolean (default off) | |
6685 global | |
6686 {not in Vi} | |
6687 Round indent to multiple of 'shiftwidth'. Applies to > and < | |
6688 commands. CTRL-T and CTRL-D in Insert mode always round the indent to | |
6689 a multiple of 'shiftwidth' (this is Vi compatible). | |
6690 NOTE: This option is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |
6691 | |
6692 *'shiftwidth'* *'sw'* | |
6693 'shiftwidth' 'sw' number (default 8) | |
6694 local to buffer | |
10 | 6695 Number of spaces to use for each step of (auto)indent. Used for |
7 | 6696 |'cindent'|, |>>|, |<<|, etc. |
3893 | 6697 When zero the 'ts' value will be used. Use the |shiftwidth()| |
6698 function to get the effective shiftwidth value. | |

6709 f use "(3 of 5)" instead of "(file 3 of 5)" | |
6710 i use "[noeol]" instead of "[Incomplete last line]" | |
6711 l use "999L, 888C" instead of "999 lines, 888 characters" | |
6712 m use "[+]" instead of "[Modified]" | |
6713 n use "[New]" instead of "[New File]" | |
6714 r use "[RO]" instead of "[readonly]" | |
6715 w use "[w]" instead of "written" for file write message | |
6716 and "[a]" instead of "appended" for ':w >> file' command | |
6717 x use "[dos]" instead of "[dos format]", "[unix]" instead of | |
6718 "[unix format]" and "[mac]" instead of "[mac format]". | |
6719 a all of the above abbreviations | |
6720 | |
6721 o overwrite message for writing a file with subsequent message | |
6722 for reading a file (useful for ":wn" or when 'autowrite' on) | |
6723 O message for reading a file overwrites any previous message. | |
6724 Also for quickfix message (e.g., ":cn"). | |
6725 s don't give "search hit BOTTOM, continuing at TOP" or "search | |
6726 hit TOP, continuing at BOTTOM" messages | |
6727 t truncate file message at the start if it is too long to fit | |
6728 on the command-line, "<" will appear in the left most column. | |
6729 Ignored in Ex mode. | |
6730 T truncate other messages in the middle if they are too long to | |
233 | 6731 fit on the command line. "..." will appear in the middle. |
7 | 6732 Ignored in Ex mode. |
6733 W don't give "written" or "[w]" when writing a file | |
6734 A don't give the "ATTENTION" message when an existing swap file | |
6735 is found. | |
6736 I don't give the intro message when starting Vim |:intro|. | |
5946 | 6737 c don't give |ins-completion-menu| messages. For example, |
6738 "-- XXX completion (YYY)", "match 1 of 2", "The only match", | |
6739 "Pattern not found", "Back at original", etc. | |

6744 This gives you the opportunity to avoid that a change between buffers | |
6745 requires you to hit <Enter>, but still gives as useful a message as | |

6836 The 'matchpairs' option can be used to specify the characters to show | |

6877 When using a slow terminal set it to a large number or 0. When using | |
6878 a fast terminal use a small number or 1. Not used for "zh" and "zl" | |

6885 The minimal number of screen columns to keep to the left and to the | |
534 | 6886 right of the cursor if 'nowrap' is set. Setting this option to a |
6887 value greater than 0 while having |'sidescroll'| also at a non-zero | |
6888 value makes some context visible in the line you are scrolling in | |
6889 horizontally (except at beginning of the line). Setting this option | |
6890 to a large value (like 999) has the effect of keeping the cursor | |
6891 horizontally centered in the window, as long as one does not come too | |
6892 close to the beginning of the line. | |
7 | 6893 NOTE: This option is set to 0 when 'compatible' is set. |

6895 Example: Try this together with 'sidescroll' and 'listchars' as | |
6896 in the following example to never allow the cursor to move | |

6918 Override the 'ignorecase' option if the search pattern contains upper | |

6920 'ignorecase' option is on. Used for the commands "/", "?", "n", "N", | |
3557 | 6921 ":g" and ":s". Not used for "*", "#", "gd", tag search, etc. After |
7 | 6922 "*" and "#" you can make 'smartcase' used by doing a "/" command, |

6932 Do smart autoindenting when starting a new line. Works for C-like | |
6933 programs, but can also be used for other languages. 'cindent' does | |
6934 something like this, works better in most cases, but is more strict, | |
2662 | 6935 see |C-indenting|. When 'cindent' is on or 'indentexpr' is set, |
2642 | 6936 setting 'si' has no effect. 'indentexpr' is a more advanced |
6937 alternative. | |
7 | 6938 Normally 'autoindent' should also be on when using 'smartindent'. |
6939 An indent is automatically inserted: | |
6940 - After a line ending in '{'. | |
6941 - After a line starting with a keyword from 'cinwords'. | |
6942 - Before a line starting with '}' (only with the "O" command). | |
6943 When typing '}' as the first character in a new line, that line is | |
6944 given the same indent as the matching '{'. | |
6945 When typing '#' as the first character in a new line, the indent for | |
6946 that line is removed, the '#' is put in the first column. The indent | |
10 | 6947 is restored for the next line. If you don't want this, use this |
7 | 6948 mapping: ":inoremap # X^H#", where ^H is entered with CTRL-V CTRL-H. |
6949 When using the ">>" command, lines starting with '#' are not shifted | |
6950 right. | |

648 | 6964 'softtabstop'. 'shiftwidth' is only used for shifting text left or |
6965 right |shift-left-right|. | |
1263 | 6966 What gets inserted (a <Tab> or spaces) depends on the 'expandtab' |
7 | 6967 option. Also see |ins-expandtab|. When 'expandtab' is not set, the |
11 | 6968 number of spaces is minimized by using <Tab>s. |

6979 <Tab>s are being inserted, while in fact a mix of spaces and <Tab>s is | |
6980 used. This is useful to keep the 'ts' setting at its standard value | |
6981 of 8, while being able to edit like it is set to 'sts'. However, | |
6982 commands like "x" still work on the actual characters. | |

7024 Name of the word list file where words are added for the |zg| and |zw| | |
401 | 7025 commands. It must end in ".{encoding}.add". You need to include the |
7026 path, otherwise the file is placed in the current directory. | |
386 | 7027 *E765* |
7028 It may also be a comma separated list of names. A count before the | |
7029 |zg| and |zw| commands can be used to access each. This allows using | |
7030 a personal word list file and a project word list file. | |
314 | 7031 When a word is added while this option is empty Vim will set it for |
819 | 7032 you: Using the first directory in 'runtimepath' that is writable. If |
7033 there is no "spell" directory yet it will be created. For the file | |
7034 name the first language name that appears in 'spelllang' is used, | |
353 | 7035 ignoring the region. |
7036 The resulting ".spl" file will be used for spell checking, it does not | |
7037 have to appear in 'spelllang'. | |
7038 Normally one file is used for all regions, but you can add the region | |
7039 name if you want to. However, it will then only be used when | |
7040 'spellfile' is set to it, for entries in 'spelllang' only files | |
7041 without region name will be found. | |
336 | 7042 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for |
7043 security reasons. | |

353 | 7051 A comma separated list of word list names. When the 'spell' option is |
7052 on spellchecking will be done for these languages. Example: > | |
7053 set spelllang=en_us,nl,medical | |
7054 < This means US English, Dutch and medical words are recognized. Words | |
7055 that are not recognized will be highlighted. | |
7056 The word list name must not include a comma or dot. Using a dash is | |
7057 recommended to separate the two letter language name from a | |
7058 specification. Thus "en-rare" is used for rare English words. | |
7059 A region name must come last and have the form "_xx", where "xx" is | |
7060 the two-letter, lower case region name. You can use more than one | |
7061 region by listing them: "en_us,en_ca" supports both US and Canadian | |
7062 English, but not words specific for Australia, New Zealand or Great | |

5477 | 7065 If the name "cjk" is included East Asian characters are excluded from |
7066 spell checking. This is useful when editing text that also has Asian | |
7067 words. | |
484 | 7068 *E757* |
419 | 7069 As a special case the name of a .spl file can be given as-is. The |
7070 first "_xx" in the name is removed and used as the region name | |
7071 (_xx is an underscore, two letters and followed by a non-letter). | |
7072 This is mainly for testing purposes. You must make sure the correct | |
7073 encoding is used, Vim doesn't check it. | |
236 | 7074 When 'encoding' is set the word lists are reloaded. Thus it's a good |
419 | 7075 idea to set 'spelllang' after setting 'encoding' to avoid loading the |
7076 files twice. | |
353 | 7077 How the related spell files are found is explained here: |spell-load|. |
221 | 7078 |
653 | 7079 If the |spellfile.vim| plugin is active and you use a language name |
7080 for which Vim cannot find the .spl file in 'runtimepath' the plugin | |
7081 will ask you if you want to download the file. | |
7082 | |
480 | 7083 After this option has been set successfully, Vim will source the files |
7084 "spell/LANG.vim" in 'runtimepath'. "LANG" is the value of 'spelllang' | |
650 | 7085 up to the first comma, dot or underscore. |
7086 Also see |set-spc-auto|. | |

593 | 7095 Methods used for spelling suggestions. Both for the |z=| command and |
374 | 7096 the |spellsuggest()| function. This is a comma-separated list of |
7097 items: | |
7098 | |
7099 best Internal method that works best for English. Finds | |
7100 changes like "fast" and uses a bit of sound-a-like | |
7101 scoring to improve the ordering. | |
7102 | |
7103 double Internal method that uses two methods and mixes the | |
7104 results. The first method is "fast", the other method | |
344 | 7105 computes how much the suggestion sounds like the bad |
374 | 7106 word. That only works when the language specifies |
7107 sound folding. Can be slow and doesn't always give | |
7108 better results. | |
7109 | |
7110 fast Internal method that only checks for simple changes: | |
7111 character inserts/deletes/swaps. Works well for | |
7112 simple typing mistakes. | |
7113 | |
593 | 7114 {number} The maximum number of suggestions listed for |z=|. |
484 | 7115 Not used for |spellsuggest()|. The number of |
7116 suggestions is never more than the value of 'lines' | |
7117 minus two. | |
7118 | |
374 | 7119 file:{filename} Read file {filename}, which must have two columns, |
7120 separated by a slash. The first column contains the | |
7121 bad word, the second column the suggested good word. | |
7122 Example: | |
7123 theribal/terrible ~ | |
7124 Use this for common mistakes that do not appear at the | |
7125 top of the suggestion list with the internal methods. | |
7126 Lines without a slash are ignored, use this for | |
7127 comments. | |
5862 | 7128 The word in the second column must be correct, |
7129 otherwise it will not be used. Add the word to an | |
7130 ".add" file if it is currently flagged as a spelling | |
7131 mistake. | |
374 | 7132 The file is used for all languages. |
7133 | |
7134 expr:{expr} Evaluate expression {expr}. Use a function to avoid | |
7135 trouble with spaces. |v:val| holds the badly spelled | |
7136 word. The expression must evaluate to a List of | |
7137 Lists, each with a suggestion and a score. | |
7138 Example: | |
11062 | 7139 [['the', 33], ['that', 44]] ~ |
593 | 7140 Set 'verbose' and use |z=| to see the scores that the |
374 | 7141 internal methods use. A lower score is better. |
7142 This may invoke |spellsuggest()| if you temporarily | |
7143 set 'spellsuggest' to exclude the "expr:" part. | |
7144 Errors are silently ignored, unless you set the | |
7145 'verbose' option to a non-zero value. | |
7146 | |
7147 Only one of "best", "double" or "fast" may be used. The others may | |
7148 appear several times in any order. Example: > | |
7149 :set sps=file:~/.vim/sugg,best,expr:MySuggest() | |
7150 < | |

7308 < *g:actual_curbuf* |
7 | 7309 Beware that an expression is evaluated each and every time the status |
7310 line is displayed. The current buffer and current window will be set | |
7311 temporarily to that of the window (and buffer) whose statusline is | |
233 | 7312 currently being drawn. The expression will evaluate in this context. |
7 | 7313 The variable "actual_curbuf" is set to the 'bufnr()' number of the |
634 | 7314 real current buffer. |
7315 | |
3682 | 7316 The 'statusline' option will be evaluated in the |sandbox| if set from |
7317 a modeline, see |sandbox-option|. | |
634 | 7318 |
7319 It is not allowed to change text or jump to another window while | |
7320 evaluating 'statusline' |textlock|. | |
7 | 7321 |
7322 If the statusline is not updated when you want it (e.g., after setting | |
7323 a variable that's used in an expression), you can force an update by | |
7324 setting an option without changing its value. Example: > | |
7325 :let &ro = &ro | |
7326 | |
7327 < A result of all digits is regarded a number for display purposes. | |
7328 Otherwise the result is taken as flag text and applied to the rules | |
7329 described above. | |
7330 | |
199 | 7331 Watch out for errors in expressions. They may render Vim unusable! |
7 | 7332 If you are stuck, hold down ':' or 'Q' to get a prompt, then quit and |
7333 edit your .vimrc or whatever with "vim -u NONE" to get it right. | |
7334 | |
7335 Examples: | |
7336 Emulate standard status line with 'ruler' set > | |
7337 :set statusline=%<%f\ %h%m%r%=%-14.(%l,%c%V%)\ %P | |
7338 < Similar, but add ASCII value of char under the cursor (like "ga") > | |
7339 :set statusline=%<%f%h%m%r%=%b\ 0x%B\ \ %l,%c%V\ %P | |
7340 < Display byte count and byte value, modified flag in red. > | |
7341 :set statusline=%<%f%=\ [%1*%M%*%n%R%H]\ %-19(%3l,%02c%03V%)%O'%02b' | |
7342 :hi User1 term=inverse,bold cterm=inverse,bold ctermfg=red | |
7343 < Display a ,GZ flag if a compressed file is loaded > | |
7344 :set statusline=...%r%{VarExists('b:gzflag','\ [GZ]')}%h... | |
7345 < In the |:autocmd|'s: > | |
7346 :let b:gzflag = 1 | |
7347 < And: > | |
7348 :unlet b:gzflag | |
7349 < And define this function: > | |
7350 :function VarExists(var, val) | |

7352 :endfunction | |
7353 < | |
7354 *'suffixes'* *'su'* | |
7355 'suffixes' 'su' string (default ".bak,~,.o,.h,.info,.swp,.obj") | |
7356 global | |
7357 {not in Vi} | |
7358 Files with these suffixes get a lower priority when multiple files | |
7359 match a wildcard. See |suffixes|. Commas can be used to separate the | |
10 | 7360 suffixes. Spaces after the comma are ignored. A dot is also seen as |
7361 the start of a suffix. To avoid a dot or comma being recognized as a | |
7 | 7362 separator, precede it with a backslash (see |option-backslash| about |
7363 including spaces and backslashes). | |
7364 See 'wildignore' for completely ignoring files. | |
7365 The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
7366 suffixes from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
7367 uses another default. | |
7368 | |
7369 *'suffixesadd'* *'sua'* | |
7370 'suffixesadd' 'sua' string (default "") | |
7371 local to buffer | |
7372 {not in Vi} | |
7373 {not available when compiled without the | |
7374 |+file_in_path| feature} | |
7375 Comma separated list of suffixes, which are used when searching for a | |
7376 file for the "gf", "[I", etc. commands. Example: > | |
7377 :set suffixesadd=.java | |
7378 < | |
7379 *'swapfile'* *'swf'* *'noswapfile'* *'noswf'* | |
7380 'swapfile' 'swf' boolean (default on) | |
7381 local to buffer | |
7382 {not in Vi} | |
10 | 7383 Use a swapfile for the buffer. This option can be reset when a |
7 | 7384 swapfile is not wanted for a specific buffer. For example, with |
7385 confidential information that even root must not be able to access. | |
7386 Careful: All text will be in memory: | |
7387 - Don't use this for big files. | |
7388 - Recovery will be impossible! | |
7389 A swapfile will only be present when |'updatecount'| is non-zero and | |
7390 'swapfile' is set. | |
7391 When 'swapfile' is reset, the swap file for the current buffer is | |
7392 immediately deleted. When 'swapfile' is set, and 'updatecount' is | |
7393 non-zero, a swap file is immediately created. | |
7394 Also see |swap-file| and |'swapsync'|. | |
5763 | 7395 If you want to open a new buffer without creating a swap file for it, |
7396 use the |:noswapfile| modifier. | |
7 | 7397 |
7398 This option is used together with 'bufhidden' and 'buftype' to | |
7399 specify special kinds of buffers. See |special-buffers|. | |
7400 | |
7401 *'swapsync'* *'sws'* | |
7402 'swapsync' 'sws' string (default "fsync") | |
7403 global | |
7404 {not in Vi} | |
7405 When this option is not empty a swap file is synced to disk after | |
10 | 7406 writing to it. This takes some time, especially on busy unix systems. |
7 | 7407 When this option is empty parts of the swap file may be in memory and |
7408 not written to disk. When the system crashes you may lose more work. | |
7409 On Unix the system does a sync now and then without Vim asking for it, | |
7410 so the disadvantage of setting this option off is small. On some | |
7411 systems the swap file will not be written at all. For a unix system | |
7412 setting it to "sync" will use the sync() call instead of the default | |
7413 fsync(), which may work better on some systems. | |
36 | 7414 The 'fsync' option is used for the actual file. |
7 | 7415 |
7416 *'switchbuf'* *'swb'* | |
7417 'switchbuf' 'swb' string (default "") | |
7418 global | |
7419 {not in Vi} | |
7420 This option controls the behavior when switching between buffers. | |
7421 Possible values (comma separated list): | |
7422 useopen If included, jump to the first open window that | |
7423 contains the specified buffer (if there is one). | |
7424 Otherwise: Do not examine other windows. | |
7425 This setting is checked with |quickfix| commands, when | |
7426 jumping to errors (":cc", ":cn", "cp", etc.). It is | |
7427 also used in all buffer related split commands, for | |
7428 example ":sbuffer", ":sbnext", or ":sbrewind". | |
825 | 7429 usetab Like "useopen", but also consider windows in other tab |
856 | 7430 pages. |
7 | 7431 split If included, split the current window before loading |
3153 | 7432 a buffer for a |quickfix| command that display errors. |
7433 Otherwise: do not split, use current window. | |
6843 | 7434 vsplit Just like "split" but split vertically. |
1621 | 7435 newtab Like "split", but open a new tab page. Overrules |

7440 local to buffer | |
7441 {not in Vi} | |
7442 {not available when compiled without the |+syntax| | |
7443 feature} | |
419 | 7444 Maximum column in which to search for syntax items. In long lines the |
7445 text after this column is not highlighted and following lines may not | |
7446 be highlighted correctly, because the syntax state is cleared. | |
410 | 7447 This helps to avoid very slow redrawing for an XML file that is one |
7448 long line. | |
7449 Set to zero to remove the limit. | |
7450 | |
7 | 7451 *'syntax'* *'syn'* |
7452 'syntax' 'syn' string (default empty) | |
7453 local to buffer | |
7454 {not in Vi} | |
7455 {not available when compiled without the |+syntax| | |
7456 feature} | |
7457 When this option is set, the syntax with this name is loaded, unless | |
7458 syntax highlighting has been switched off with ":syntax off". | |
7459 Otherwise this option does not always reflect the current syntax (the | |
7460 b:current_syntax variable does). | |
7461 This option is most useful in a modeline, for a file which syntax is | |
782 | 7462 not automatically recognized. Example, in an IDL file: |
7463 /* vim: set syntax=idl : */ ~ | |
7464 When a dot appears in the value then this separates two filetype | |
7465 names. Example: | |
7466 /* vim: set syntax=c.doxygen : */ ~ | |
7467 This will use the "c" syntax first, then the "doxygen" syntax. | |
7468 Note that the second one must be prepared to be loaded as an addition, | |
7469 otherwise it will be skipped. More than one dot may appear. | |
7470 To switch off syntax highlighting for the current file, use: > | |
7 | 7471 :set syntax=OFF |
7472 < To switch syntax highlighting on according to the current value of the | |
7473 'filetype' option: > | |
7474 :set syntax=ON | |
7475 < What actually happens when setting the 'syntax' option is that the | |
7476 Syntax autocommand event is triggered with the value as argument. | |
7477 This option is not copied to another buffer, independent of the 's' or | |
7478 'S' flag in 'cpoptions'. | |
36 | 7479 Only normal file name characters can be used, "/\*?[|<>" are illegal. |
7 | 7480 |
699 | 7481 *'tabline'* *'tal'* |
677 | 7482 'tabline' 'tal' string (default empty) |

7485 {not available when compiled without the |+windows| |
674 | 7486 feature} |
677 | 7487 When nonempty, this option determines the content of the tab pages |
7488 line at the top of the Vim window. When empty Vim will use a default | |
681 | 7489 tab pages line. See |setting-tabline| for more info. |
677 | 7490 |
7491 The tab pages line only appears as specified with the 'showtabline' | |
688 | 7492 option and only when there is no GUI tab line. When 'e' is in |
7493 'guioptions' and the GUI supports a tab line 'guitablabel' is used | |

7494 instead. Note that the two tab pages lines are very different. |
677 | 7495 |
7496 The value is evaluated like with 'statusline'. You can use | |
7497 |tabpagenr()|, |tabpagewinnr()| and |tabpagebuflist()| to figure out | |
681 | 7498 the text to be displayed. Use "%1T" for the first label, "%2T" for |
7499 the second one, etc. Use "%X" items for closing labels. | |
677 | 7500 |
7501 Keep in mind that only one of the tab pages is the current one, others | |
7502 are invisible and you can't jump to their windows. | |

7515 *'tabstop'* *'ts'* | |
7 | 7516 'tabstop' 'ts' number (default 8) |
7517 local to buffer | |
7518 Number of spaces that a <Tab> in the file counts for. Also see | |
7519 |:retab| command, and 'softtabstop' option. | |
7520 | |
7521 Note: Setting 'tabstop' to any other value than 8 can make your file | |
7522 appear wrong in many places (e.g., when printing it). | |
7523 | |
7524 There are four main ways to use tabs in Vim: | |
7525 1. Always keep 'tabstop' at 8, set 'softtabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to 4 | |
7526 (or 3 or whatever you prefer) and use 'noexpandtab'. Then Vim | |
1263 | 7527 will use a mix of tabs and spaces, but typing <Tab> and <BS> will |
7 | 7528 behave like a tab appears every 4 (or 3) characters. |
7529 2. Set 'tabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to whatever you prefer and use | |
7530 'expandtab'. This way you will always insert spaces. The | |
7531 formatting will never be messed up when 'tabstop' is changed. | |
7532 3. Set 'tabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to whatever you prefer and use a | |
10 | 7533 |modeline| to set these values when editing the file again. Only |
7 | 7534 works when using Vim to edit the file. |
7535 4. Always set 'tabstop' and 'shiftwidth' to the same value, and | |
7536 'noexpandtab'. This should then work (for initial indents only) | |
7537 for any tabstop setting that people use. It might be nice to have | |
7538 tabs after the first non-blank inserted as spaces if you do this | |
7539 though. Otherwise aligned comments will be wrong when 'tabstop' is | |
7540 changed. | |
7541 | |
7542 *'tagbsearch'* *'tbs'* *'notagbsearch'* *'notbs'* | |
7543 'tagbsearch' 'tbs' boolean (default on) | |
7544 global | |
7545 {not in Vi} | |
7546 When searching for a tag (e.g., for the |:ta| command), Vim can either | |
10 | 7547 use a binary search or a linear search in a tags file. Binary |
7 | 7548 searching makes searching for a tag a LOT faster, but a linear search |
7549 will find more tags if the tags file wasn't properly sorted. | |
7550 Vim normally assumes that your tags files are sorted, or indicate that | |
7551 they are not sorted. Only when this is not the case does the | |
7552 'tagbsearch' option need to be switched off. | |
7553 | |
7554 When 'tagbsearch' is on, binary searching is first used in the tags | |
10 | 7555 files. In certain situations, Vim will do a linear search instead for |
7 | 7556 certain files, or retry all files with a linear search. When |
7557 'tagbsearch' is off, only a linear search is done. | |
7558 | |
7559 Linear searching is done anyway, for one file, when Vim finds a line | |
7560 at the start of the file indicating that it's not sorted: > | |
1621 | 7561 !_TAG_FILE_SORTED 0 /some comment/ |
7 | 7562 < [The whitespace before and after the '0' must be a single <Tab>] |

7585 When 'tagbsearch' is off, tags searching is slower when a full match | |

7587 files may only be found with 'tagbsearch' off. | |
7588 When the tags file is not sorted, or sorted in a wrong way (not on | |
7589 ASCII byte value), 'tagbsearch' should be off, or the line given above | |
7590 must be included in the tags file. | |
7591 This option doesn't affect commands that find all matching tags (e.g., | |
7592 command-line completion and ":help"). | |

515 | 7640 The |tagfiles()| function can be used to get a list of the file names |
7641 actually used. | |
7 | 7642 If Vim was compiled with the |+emacs_tags| feature, Emacs-style tag |
7643 files are also supported. They are automatically recognized. The | |
7644 default value becomes "./tags,./TAGS,tags,TAGS", unless case | |
7645 differences are ignored (MS-Windows). |emacs-tags| | |
7646 The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
7647 file names from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
7648 uses another default. | |

7655 When on, the |tagstack| is used normally. When off, a ":tag" or | |
7656 ":tselect" command with an argument will not push the tag onto the | |
7657 tagstack. A following ":tag" without an argument, a ":pop" command or | |
7658 any other command that uses the tagstack will use the unmodified | |
7659 tagstack, but does change the pointer to the active entry. | |
7660 Resetting this option is useful when using a ":tag" command in a | |
7661 mapping which should not change the tagstack. | |

7701 The terminal is in charge of Bi-directionality of text (as specified | |
7702 by Unicode). The terminal is also expected to do the required shaping | |

7704 Setting this option implies that 'rightleft' will not be set when | |
7705 'arabic' is set and the value of 'arabicshape' will be ignored. | |
7706 Note that setting 'termbidi' has the immediate effect that | |
7707 'arabicshape' is ignored, but 'rightleft' isn't changed automatically. | |
7708 This option is reset when the GUI is started. | |

7728 For the Win32 GUI and console versions 'termencoding' is not used, |
7 | 7729 because the Win32 system always passes Unicode characters. |
7730 When empty, the same encoding is used as for the 'encoding' option. | |
7731 This is the normal value. | |
7732 Not all combinations for 'termencoding' and 'encoding' are valid. See | |
7733 |encoding-table|. | |
7734 The value for this option must be supported by internal conversions or | |
7735 iconv(). When this is not possible no conversion will be done and you | |
7736 will probably experience problems with non-ASCII characters. | |
7737 Example: You are working with the locale set to euc-jp (Japanese) and | |
7738 want to edit a UTF-8 file: > | |
7739 :let &termencoding = &encoding | |
7740 :set encoding=utf-8 | |
7741 < You need to do this when your system has no locale support for UTF-8. | |

10 | 7812 To include a comma in a file name precede it with a backslash. Spaces |
7 | 7813 after a comma are ignored, otherwise spaces are included in the file |
7814 name. See |option-backslash| about using backslashes. | |
7815 The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
7816 directories from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
7817 uses another default. | |

7831 'ttimeout' boolean (default off, set in |defaults.vim|) |
7 | 7832 global |
7833 {not in Vi} | |
7834 These two options together determine the behavior when part of a | |
7835 mapped key sequence or keyboard code has been received: | |
7836 | |
7837 'timeout' 'ttimeout' action ~ | |
7838 off off do not time out | |
7839 on on or off time out on :mappings and key codes | |
7840 off on time out on key codes | |
7841 | |
7842 If both options are off, Vim will wait until either the complete | |
7843 mapping or key sequence has been received, or it is clear that there | |
7844 is no mapping or key sequence for the received characters. For | |
7845 example: if you have mapped "vl" and Vim has received 'v', the next | |
7846 character is needed to see if the 'v' is followed by an 'l'. | |
7847 When one of the options is on, Vim will wait for about 1 second for | |
7848 the next character to arrive. After that the already received | |
7849 characters are interpreted as single characters. The waiting time can | |
7850 be changed with the 'timeoutlen' option. | |
7851 On slow terminals or very busy systems timing out may cause | |
7852 malfunctioning cursor keys. If both options are off, Vim waits | |
7853 forever after an entered <Esc> if there are key codes that start | |
7854 with <Esc>. You will have to type <Esc> twice. If you do not have | |
7855 problems with key codes, but would like to have :mapped key | |
7856 sequences not timing out in 1 second, set the 'ttimeout' option and | |
7857 reset the 'timeout' option. | |
7858 | |
7859 NOTE: 'ttimeout' is reset when 'compatible' is set. | |
7860 | |
7861 *'timeoutlen'* *'tm'* | |
7862 'timeoutlen' 'tm' number (default 1000) | |

7866 'ttimeoutlen' 'ttm' number (default -1, set to 100 in |defaults.vim|) |
7 | 7867 global |
7868 {not in Vi} | |
7869 The time in milliseconds that is waited for a key code or mapped key | |
7870 sequence to complete. Also used for CTRL-\ CTRL-N and CTRL-\ CTRL-G | |
7871 when part of a command has been typed. | |
7872 Normally only 'timeoutlen' is used and 'ttimeoutlen' is -1. When a | |
7873 different timeout value for key codes is desired set 'ttimeoutlen' to | |
7874 a non-negative number. | |
7875 | |
7876 ttimeoutlen mapping delay key code delay ~ | |
7877 < 0 'timeoutlen' 'timeoutlen' | |
7878 >= 0 'timeoutlen' 'ttimeoutlen' | |
7879 | |
7880 The timeout only happens when the 'timeout' and 'ttimeout' options | |
7881 tell so. A useful setting would be > | |
7882 :set timeout timeoutlen=3000 ttimeoutlen=100 | |
7883 < (time out on mapping after three seconds, time out on key codes after | |
7884 a tenth of a second). | |

7886 *'title'* *'notitle'* | |
7887 'title' boolean (default off, on when title can be restored) | |
7888 global | |
7889 {not in Vi} | |
7890 {not available when compiled without the |+title| | |
7891 feature} | |
7892 When on, the title of the window will be set to the value of | |
7893 'titlestring' (if it is not empty), or to: | |
7894 filename [+=-] (path) - VIM | |
7895 Where: | |
7896 filename the name of the file being edited | |
7897 - indicates the file cannot be modified, 'ma' off | |
7898 + indicates the file was modified | |
7899 = indicates the file is read-only | |
7900 =+ indicates the file is read-only and modified | |
7901 (path) is the path of the file being edited | |
7902 - VIM the server name |v:servername| or "VIM" | |
7903 Only works if the terminal supports setting window titles | |
7904 (currently Amiga console, Win32 console, all GUI versions and | |
7905 terminals with a non- empty 't_ts' option - these are Unix xterm and | |
7906 iris-ansi by default, where 't_ts' is taken from the builtin termcap). | |
7907 *X11* | |
7908 When Vim was compiled with HAVE_X11 defined, the original title will | |
7909 be restored if possible. The output of ":version" will include "+X11" | |
7910 when HAVE_X11 was defined, otherwise it will be "-X11". This also | |
7911 works for the icon name |'icon'|. | |
7912 But: When Vim was started with the |-X| argument, restoring the title | |
7913 will not work (except in the GUI). | |
7914 If the title cannot be restored, it is set to the value of 'titleold'. | |
7915 You might want to restore the title outside of Vim then. | |
7916 When using an xterm from a remote machine you can use this command: | |
7917 rsh machine_name xterm -display $DISPLAY & | |
7918 then the WINDOWID environment variable should be inherited and the | |
7919 title of the window should change back to what it should be after | |
7920 exiting Vim. | |
7921 | |
7922 *'titlelen'* | |
7923 'titlelen' number (default 85) | |
7924 global | |
7925 {not in Vi} | |
7926 {not available when compiled without the |+title| | |
7927 feature} | |
7928 Gives the percentage of 'columns' to use for the length of the window | |
10 | 7929 title. When the title is longer, only the end of the path name is |
7930 shown. A '<' character before the path name is used to indicate this. | |
7 | 7931 Using a percentage makes this adapt to the width of the window. But |
7932 it won't work perfectly, because the actual number of characters | |
7933 available also depends on the font used and other things in the title | |
7934 bar. When 'titlelen' is zero the full path is used. Otherwise, | |
7935 values from 1 to 30000 percent can be used. | |
7936 'titlelen' is also used for the 'titlestring' option. | |
7937 | |
7938 *'titleold'* | |
7939 'titleold' string (default "Thanks for flying Vim") | |
7940 global | |
7941 {not in Vi} | |
7942 {only available when compiled with the |+title| | |
7943 feature} | |
7944 This option will be used for the window title when exiting Vim if the | |
7945 original title cannot be restored. Only happens if 'title' is on or | |
7946 'titlestring' is not empty. | |
36 | 7947 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for |
7948 security reasons. | |
7 | 7949 *'titlestring'* |
7950 'titlestring' string (default "") | |
7951 global | |
7952 {not in Vi} | |
7953 {not available when compiled without the |+title| | |

7955 When this option is not empty, it will be used for the title of the | |
7956 window. This happens only when the 'title' option is on. | |
7957 Only works if the terminal supports setting window titles (currently | |
7958 Amiga console, Win32 console, all GUI versions and terminals with a | |
7959 non-empty 't_ts' option). | |

7961 be restored if possible, see |X11|. |
7 | 7962 When this option contains printf-style '%' items, they will be |
7963 expanded according to the rules used for 'statusline'. | |
7964 Example: > | |
7965 :auto BufEnter * let &titlestring = hostname() . "/" . expand("%:p") | |
7966 :set title titlestring=%<%F%=%l/%L-%P titlelen=70 | |
7967 < The value of 'titlelen' is used to align items in the middle or right | |
7968 of the available space. | |
7969 Some people prefer to have the file name first: > | |
7970 :set titlestring=%t%(\ %M%)%(\ (%{expand(\"%:~:.:h\")})%)%(\ %a%) | |
7971 < Note the use of "%{ }" and an expression to get the path of the file, | |
10 | 7972 without the file name. The "%( %)" constructs are used to add a |
7 | 7973 separating space only when needed. |
7974 NOTE: Use of special characters in 'titlestring' may cause the display | |
7975 to be garbled (e.g., when it contains a CR or NL character). | |
7976 {not available when compiled without the |+statusline| feature} | |
7977 | |
7978 *'toolbar'* *'tb'* | |
7979 'toolbar' 'tb' string (default "icons,tooltips") | |
7980 global | |
7981 {only for |+GUI_GTK|, |+GUI_Athena|, |+GUI_Motif| and | |
7982 |+GUI_Photon|} | |
10 | 7983 The contents of this option controls various toolbar settings. The |
7 | 7984 possible values are: |
7985 icons Toolbar buttons are shown with icons. | |
7986 text Toolbar buttons shown with text. | |
7987 horiz Icon and text of a toolbar button are | |
10 | 7988 horizontally arranged. {only in GTK+ 2 GUI} |
7 | 7989 tooltips Tooltips are active for toolbar buttons. |
7990 Tooltips refer to the popup help text which appears after the mouse | |
7991 cursor is placed over a toolbar button for a brief moment. | |
7992 | |
7993 If you want the toolbar to be shown with icons as well as text, do the | |
7994 following: > | |
7995 :set tb=icons,text | |
7996 < Motif and Athena cannot display icons and text at the same time. They | |
7997 will show icons if both are requested. | |
7998 | |
7999 If none of the strings specified in 'toolbar' are valid or if | |
8000 'toolbar' is empty, this option is ignored. If you want to disable | |
8001 the toolbar, you need to set the 'guioptions' option. For example: > | |
8002 :set guioptions-=T | |
8003 < Also see |gui-toolbar|. | |

8005 *'toolbariconsize'* *'tbis'* | |

8021 If 'toolbariconsize' is empty, the global default size as determined | |
8022 by user preferences or the current theme is used. | |
8023 | |
8024 *'ttybuiltin'* *'tbi'* *'nottybuiltin'* *'notbi'* | |
8025 'ttybuiltin' 'tbi' boolean (default on) | |
8026 global | |
8027 {not in Vi} | |
8028 When on, the builtin termcaps are searched before the external ones. | |
8029 When off the builtin termcaps are searched after the external ones. | |
8030 When this option is changed, you should set the 'term' option next for | |
8031 the change to take effect, for example: > | |
8032 :set notbi term=$TERM | |
8033 < See also |termcap|. | |
8034 Rationale: The default for this option is "on", because the builtin | |
8035 termcap entries are generally better (many systems contain faulty | |
8036 xterm entries...). | |
8037 | |
8038 *'ttyfast'* *'tf'* *'nottyfast'* *'notf'* | |
8039 'ttyfast' 'tf' boolean (default off, on when 'term' is xterm, hpterm, | |
8040 sun-cmd, screen, rxvt, dtterm or | |
8041 iris-ansi; also on when running Vim in | |
8042 a DOS console) | |
8043 global | |
8044 {not in Vi} | |
8045 Indicates a fast terminal connection. More characters will be sent to | |
8046 the screen for redrawing, instead of using insert/delete line | |
8047 commands. Improves smoothness of redrawing when there are multiple | |
8048 windows and the terminal does not support a scrolling region. | |
8049 Also enables the extra writing of characters at the end of each screen | |
8050 line for lines that wrap. This helps when using copy/paste with the | |
8051 mouse in an xterm and other terminals. | |
8052 | |

8054 'ttymouse' 'ttym' string (default depends on 'term') | |

8057 {only in Unix and VMS, doesn't work in the GUI; not | |
8058 available when compiled without |+mouse|} | |
8059 Name of the terminal type for which mouse codes are to be recognized. | |
1213 | 8060 Currently these strings are valid: |
7 | 8061 *xterm-mouse* |
8062 xterm xterm-like mouse handling. The mouse generates | |
8063 "<Esc>[Mscr", where "scr" is three bytes: | |
8064 "s" = button state | |
8065 "c" = column plus 33 | |
8066 "r" = row plus 33 | |
5908 | 8067 This only works up to 223 columns! See "dec", |
8068 "urxvt", and "sgr" for solutions. | |
7 | 8069 xterm2 Works like "xterm", but with the xterm reporting the |
8070 mouse position while the mouse is dragged. This works | |
8071 much faster and more precise. Your xterm must at | |
180 | 8072 least at patchlevel 88 / XFree 3.3.3 for this to |
7 | 8073 work. See below for how Vim detects this |
8074 automatically. | |
8075 *netterm-mouse* | |
8076 netterm NetTerm mouse handling. The mouse generates | |
8077 "<Esc>}r,c<CR>", where "r,c" are two decimal numbers | |
8078 for the row and column. | |
8079 *dec-mouse* | |
8080 dec DEC terminal mouse handling. The mouse generates a | |
8081 rather complex sequence, starting with "<Esc>[". | |
189 | 8082 This is also available for an Xterm, if it was |
8083 configured with "--enable-dec-locator". | |
7 | 8084 *jsbterm-mouse* |
8085 jsbterm JSB term mouse handling. | |
8086 *pterm-mouse* | |
8087 pterm QNX pterm mouse handling. | |
3224 | 8088 *urxvt-mouse* |
8089 urxvt Mouse handling for the urxvt (rxvt-unicode) terminal. | |
5908 | 8090 The mouse works only if the terminal supports this |
8091 encoding style, but it does not have 223 columns limit | |
8092 unlike "xterm" or "xterm2". | |
3750 | 8093 *sgr-mouse* |
8094 sgr Mouse handling for the terminal that emits SGR-styled | |
5908 | 8095 mouse reporting. The mouse works even in columns |
8096 beyond 223. This option is backward compatible with | |
8097 "xterm2" because it can also decode "xterm2" style | |
8098 mouse codes. | |
7 | 8099 |
8100 The mouse handling must be enabled at compile time |+mouse_xterm| | |
5908 | 8101 |+mouse_dec| |+mouse_netterm| |+mouse_jsbterm| |+mouse_urxvt| |
8102 |+mouse_sgr|. | |
7 | 8103 Only "xterm"(2) is really recognized. NetTerm mouse codes are always |
8104 recognized, if enabled at compile time. DEC terminal mouse codes | |
8105 are recognized if enabled at compile time, and 'ttymouse' is not | |
5908 | 8106 "xterm", "xterm2", "urxvt" or "sgr" (because dec mouse codes conflict |
8107 with them). | |
7 | 8108 This option is automatically set to "xterm", when the 'term' option is |

8214 Vim with the "-n" option, see |startup|. When editing in readonly | |

8216 The swapfile can be disabled per buffer with |'swapfile'|. | |
8217 When 'updatecount' is set from zero to non-zero, swap files are | |

8248 | |
8249 This option can also be set with the "-V" argument. See |-V|. | |

8341 removable media (|viminfo-r|) are not saved. |
23 | 8342 When followed by a number, the number specifies the maximum |
8343 number of buffers that are stored. Without a number all | |
8344 buffers are stored. | |
3224 | 8345 *viminfo-'* |
7 | 8346 ' Maximum number of previously edited files for which the marks |
8347 are remembered. This parameter must always be included when | |
8348 'viminfo' is non-empty. | |
8349 Including this item also means that the |jumplist| and the | |
8350 |changelist| are stored in the viminfo file. | |
3224 | 8351 *viminfo-/* |
7 | 8352 / Maximum number of items in the search pattern history to be |
10 | 8353 saved. If non-zero, then the previous search and substitute |
7 | 8354 patterns are also saved. When not included, the value of |
8355 'history' is used. | |
3224 | 8356 *viminfo-:* |
7 | 8357 : Maximum number of items in the command-line history to be |
10 | 8358 saved. When not included, the value of 'history' is used. |
3224 | 8359 *viminfo-<* |
7 | 8360 < Maximum number of lines saved for each register. If zero then |
8361 registers are not saved. When not included, all lines are | |
8362 saved. '"' is the old name for this item. | |
8363 Also see the 's' item below: limit specified in Kbyte. | |
3224 | 8364 *viminfo-@* |
7 | 8365 @ Maximum number of items in the input-line history to be |
10 | 8366 saved. When not included, the value of 'history' is used. |
3224 | 8367 *viminfo-c* |
7 | 8368 c When included, convert the text in the viminfo file from the |
8369 'encoding' used when writing the file to the current | |
233 | 8370 'encoding'. See |viminfo-encoding|. |
3224 | 8371 *viminfo-f* |
7 | 8372 f Whether file marks need to be stored. If zero, file marks ('0 |
8373 to '9, 'A to 'Z) are not stored. When not present or when | |
10 | 8374 non-zero, they are all stored. '0 is used for the current |
7 | 8375 cursor position (when exiting or when doing ":wviminfo"). |
3224 | 8376 *viminfo-h* |
7 | 8377 h Disable the effect of 'hlsearch' when loading the viminfo |
8378 file. When not included, it depends on whether ":nohlsearch" | |
8379 has been used since the last search command. | |

8385 expanded when opening the file, not when setting the option. |
3224 | 8386 *viminfo-r* |
7 | 8387 r Removable media. The argument is a string (up to the next |
8388 ','). This parameter can be given several times. Each | |
8389 specifies the start of a path for which no marks will be | |
8390 stored. This is to avoid removable media. For MS-DOS you | |
8391 could use "ra:,rb:", for Amiga "rdf0:,rdf1:,rdf2:". You can | |
8392 also use it for temp files, e.g., for Unix: "r/tmp". Case is | |
8393 ignored. Maximum length of each 'r' argument is 50 | |
8394 characters. | |
3224 | 8395 *viminfo-s* |
7 | 8396 s Maximum size of an item in Kbyte. If zero then registers are |
8397 not saved. Currently only applies to registers. The default | |
8398 "s10" will exclude registers with more than 10 Kbyte of text. | |
8399 Also see the '<' item above: line count limit. | |
8400 | |
8401 Example: > | |
8402 :set viminfo='50,<1000,s100,:0,n~/vim/viminfo | |
8403 < | |
8404 '50 Marks will be remembered for the last 50 files you | |
8405 edited. | |
8406 <1000 Contents of registers (up to 1000 lines each) will be | |
8407 remembered. | |
8408 s100 Registers with more than 100 Kbyte text are skipped. | |
8409 :0 Command-line history will not be saved. | |
8410 n~/vim/viminfo The name of the file to use is "~/vim/viminfo". | |
8411 no / Since '/' is not specified, the default will be used, | |
8412 that is, save all of the search history, and also the | |
8413 previous search and substitute patterns. | |
8414 no % The buffer list will not be saved nor read back. | |
8415 no h 'hlsearch' highlighting will be restored. | |
8416 | |
8417 When setting 'viminfo' from an empty value you can use |:rviminfo| to | |
8418 load the contents of the file, this is not done automatically. | |
8419 | |
8420 This option cannot be set from a |modeline| or in the |sandbox|, for | |
8421 security reasons. | |
11160 | 8422 NOTE: This option is set to the Vim default value when 'compatible' |
8423 is reset. | |
7 | 8424 |
8425 *'virtualedit'* *'ve'* | |
8426 'virtualedit' 've' string (default "") | |
8427 global | |
8428 {not in Vi} | |
8429 {not available when compiled without the | |
8430 |+virtualedit| feature} | |
8431 A comma separated list of these words: | |
8432 block Allow virtual editing in Visual block mode. | |
8433 insert Allow virtual editing in Insert mode. | |
8434 all Allow virtual editing in all modes. | |
772 | 8435 onemore Allow the cursor to move just past the end of the line |
782 | 8436 |
7 | 8437 Virtual editing means that the cursor can be positioned where there is |
1263 | 8438 no actual character. This can be halfway into a tab or beyond the end |
7 | 8439 of the line. Useful for selecting a rectangle in Visual mode and |
8440 editing a table. | |
772 | 8441 "onemore" is not the same, it will only allow moving the cursor just |
8442 after the last character of the line. This makes some commands more | |
8443 consistent. Previously the cursor was always past the end of the line | |
8444 if the line was empty. But it is far from Vi compatible. It may also | |
782 | 8445 break some plugins or Vim scripts. For example because |l| can move |
8446 the cursor after the last character. Use with care! | |
5220 | 8447 Using the `$` command will move to the last character in the line, not |
782 | 8448 past it. This may actually move the cursor to the left! |
5220 | 8449 The `g$` command will move to the end of the screen line. |
772 | 8450 It doesn't make sense to combine "all" with "onemore", but you will |
8451 not get a warning for it. | |
11160 | 8452 NOTE: This option is set to "" when 'compatible' is set. |
7 | 8453 |
8454 *'visualbell'* *'vb'* *'novisualbell'* *'novb'* *beep* | |
8455 'visualbell' 'vb' boolean (default off) | |
8456 global | |
8457 {not in Vi} | |
8458 Use visual bell instead of beeping. The terminal code to display the | |
8459 visual bell is given with 't_vb'. When no beep or flash is wanted, | |
8460 use ":set vb t_vb=". | |
8461 Note: When the GUI starts, 't_vb' is reset to its default value. You | |
8462 might want to set it again in your |gvimrc|. | |
8463 In the GUI, 't_vb' defaults to "<Esc>|f", which inverts the display | |
8464 for 20 msec. If you want to use a different time, use "<Esc>|40f", | |
8465 where 40 is the time in msec. | |
8466 Does not work on the Amiga, you always get a screen flash. | |
8467 Also see 'errorbells'. | |
8468 | |
8469 *'warn'* *'nowarn'* | |
8470 'warn' boolean (default on) | |
8471 global | |
8472 Give a warning message when a shell command is used while the buffer | |
8473 has been changed. | |
8474 | |
8475 *'weirdinvert'* *'wiv'* *'noweirdinvert'* *'nowiv'* | |
8476 'weirdinvert' 'wiv' boolean (default off) | |
8477 global | |
8478 {not in Vi} | |
667 | 8479 This option has the same effect as the 't_xs' terminal option. |
7 | 8480 It is provided for backwards compatibility with version 4.x. |
8481 Setting 'weirdinvert' has the effect of making 't_xs' non-empty, and | |
8482 vice versa. Has no effect when the GUI is running. | |
8483 | |
8484 *'whichwrap'* *'ww'* | |
8485 'whichwrap' 'ww' string (Vim default: "b,s", Vi default: "") | |
8486 global | |
8487 {not in Vi} | |
8488 Allow specified keys that move the cursor left/right to move to the | |
8489 previous/next line when the cursor is on the first/last character in | |
8490 the line. Concatenate characters to allow this for these keys: | |
8491 char key mode ~ | |
8492 b <BS> Normal and Visual | |
8493 s <Space> Normal and Visual | |
712 | 8494 h "h" Normal and Visual (not recommended) |
8495 l "l" Normal and Visual (not recommended) | |
7 | 8496 < <Left> Normal and Visual |
8497 > <Right> Normal and Visual | |
8498 ~ "~" Normal | |
8499 [ <Left> Insert and Replace | |
8500 ] <Right> Insert and Replace | |
8501 For example: > | |
8502 :set ww=<,>,[,] | |
8503 < allows wrap only when cursor keys are used. | |
8504 When the movement keys are used in combination with a delete or change | |
8505 operator, the <EOL> also counts for a character. This makes "3h" | |
8506 different from "3dh" when the cursor crosses the end of a line. This | |
8507 is also true for "x" and "X", because they do the same as "dl" and | |
8508 "dh". If you use this, you may also want to use the mapping | |
8509 ":map <BS> X" to make backspace delete the character in front of the | |
8510 cursor. | |
714 | 8511 When 'l' is included and it is used after an operator at the end of a |
8512 line then it will not move to the next line. This makes "dl", "cl", | |
8513 "yl" etc. work normally. | |
7 | 8514 NOTE: This option is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is |
8515 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |
8516 | |
8517 *'wildchar'* *'wc'* | |
8518 'wildchar' 'wc' number (Vim default: <Tab>, Vi default: CTRL-E) | |
8519 global | |
8520 {not in Vi} | |
8521 Character you have to type to start wildcard expansion in the | |
8522 command-line, as specified with 'wildmode'. | |
1621 | 8523 More info here: |cmdline-completion|. |
7 | 8524 The character is not recognized when used inside a macro. See |
8525 'wildcharm' for that. | |
8526 Although 'wc' is a number option, you can set it to a special key: > | |
8527 :set wc=<Esc> | |
8528 < NOTE: This option is set to the Vi default value when 'compatible' is | |
8529 set and to the Vim default value when 'compatible' is reset. | |
8530 | |
8531 *'wildcharm'* *'wcm'* | |
8532 'wildcharm' 'wcm' number (default: none (0)) | |
8533 global | |
8534 {not in Vi} | |
8535 'wildcharm' works exactly like 'wildchar', except that it is | |
233 | 8536 recognized when used inside a macro. You can find "spare" command-line |
8537 keys suitable for this option by looking at |ex-edit-index|. Normally | |
7 | 8538 you'll never actually type 'wildcharm', just use it in mappings that |
8539 automatically invoke completion mode, e.g.: > | |
8540 :set wcm=<C-Z> | |
1621 | 8541 :cnoremap ss so $vim/sessions/*.vim<C-Z> |
7 | 8542 < Then after typing :ss you can use CTRL-P & CTRL-N. |
8543 | |
8544 *'wildignore'* *'wig'* | |
8545 'wildignore' 'wig' string (default "") | |
8546 global | |
8547 {not in Vi} | |
8548 {not available when compiled without the |+wildignore| | |
8549 feature} | |
8550 A list of file patterns. A file that matches with one of these | |
3682 | 8551 patterns is ignored when expanding |wildcards|, completing file or |
8552 directory names, and influences the result of |expand()|, |glob()| and | |
8553 |globpath()| unless a flag is passed to disable this. | |
7 | 8554 The pattern is used like with |:autocmd|, see |autocmd-patterns|. |
8555 Also see 'suffixes'. | |
8556 Example: > | |
8557 :set wildignore=*.o,*.obj | |
8558 < The use of |:set+=| and |:set-=| is preferred when adding or removing | |
8559 a pattern from the list. This avoids problems when a future version | |
8560 uses another default. | |
8561 | |
2652 | 8562 |
2662 | 8563 *'wildignorecase'* *'wic'* *'nowildignorecase'* *'nowic'* |
2652 | 8564 'wildignorecase' 'wic' boolean (default off) |
8565 global | |
8566 {not in Vi} | |
8567 When set case is ignored when completing file names and directories. | |
4242 | 8568 Has no effect when 'fileignorecase' is set. |
2652 | 8569 Does not apply when the shell is used to expand wildcards, which |
8570 happens when there are special characters. | |
8571 | |

8574 'wildmenu' 'wmnu' boolean (default off, set in |defaults.vim|) |
7 | 8575 global |
8576 {not in Vi} | |
8577 {not available if compiled without the |+wildmenu| | |
8578 feature} | |
8579 When 'wildmenu' is on, command-line completion operates in an enhanced | |
8580 mode. On pressing 'wildchar' (usually <Tab>) to invoke completion, | |
8581 the possible matches are shown just above the command line, with the | |
8582 first match highlighted (overwriting the status line, if there is | |
8583 one). Keys that show the previous/next match, such as <Tab> or | |
8584 CTRL-P/CTRL-N, cause the highlight to move to the appropriate match. | |
8585 When 'wildmode' is used, "wildmenu" mode is used where "full" is | |
8586 specified. "longest" and "list" do not start "wildmenu" mode. | |
4159 | 8587 You can check the current mode with |wildmenumode()|. |
7 | 8588 If there are more matches than can fit in the line, a ">" is shown on |
8589 the right and/or a "<" is shown on the left. The status line scrolls | |
8590 as needed. | |
8591 The "wildmenu" mode is abandoned when a key is hit that is not used | |
8592 for selecting a completion. | |
8593 While the "wildmenu" is active the following keys have special | |
8594 meanings: | |
8595 | |
8596 <Left> <Right> - select previous/next match (like CTRL-P/CTRL-N) | |
8597 <Down> - in filename/menu name completion: move into a | |
8598 subdirectory or submenu. | |
8599 <CR> - in menu completion, when the cursor is just after a | |
8600 dot: move into a submenu. | |
8601 <Up> - in filename/menu name completion: move up into | |
8602 parent directory or parent menu. | |
8603 | |
8604 This makes the menus accessible from the console |console-menus|. | |
8605 | |
8606 If you prefer the <Left> and <Right> keys to move the cursor instead | |
8607 of selecting a different match, use this: > | |
8608 :cnoremap <Left> <Space><BS><Left> | |
8609 :cnoremap <Right> <Space><BS><Right> | |
8610 < | |
8611 The "WildMenu" highlighting is used for displaying the current match | |
8612 |hl-WildMenu|. | |
8613 | |
8614 *'wildmode'* *'wim'* | |
8615 'wildmode' 'wim' string (Vim default: "full") | |
8616 global | |
8617 {not in Vi} | |
8618 Completion mode that is used for the character specified with | |
10 | 8619 'wildchar'. It is a comma separated list of up to four parts. Each |
1152 | 8620 part specifies what to do for each consecutive use of 'wildchar'. The |
7 | 8621 first part specifies the behavior for the first use of 'wildchar', |
8622 The second part for the second use, etc. | |
8623 These are the possible values for each part: | |
8624 "" Complete only the first match. | |
8625 "full" Complete the next full match. After the last match, | |
8626 the original string is used and then the first match | |
8627 again. | |
8628 "longest" Complete till longest common string. If this doesn't | |
8629 result in a longer string, use the next part. | |
8630 "longest:full" Like "longest", but also start 'wildmenu' if it is | |
8631 enabled. | |
8632 "list" When more than one match, list all matches. | |
8633 "list:full" When more than one match, list all matches and | |
8634 complete first match. | |
8635 "list:longest" When more than one match, list all matches and | |
8636 complete till longest common string. | |
8637 When there is only a single match, it is fully completed in all cases. | |
8638 | |
8639 Examples: > | |
8640 :set wildmode=full | |
233 | 8641 < Complete first full match, next match, etc. (the default) > |
7 | 8642 :set wildmode=longest,full |
8643 < Complete longest common string, then each full match > | |
8644 :set wildmode=list:full | |
8645 < List all matches and complete each full match > | |
8646 :set wildmode=list,full | |
8647 < List all matches without completing, then each full match > | |
8648 :set wildmode=longest,list | |
8649 < Complete longest common string, then list alternatives. | |
1621 | 8650 More info here: |cmdline-completion|. |

8655 {not in Vi} | |
8656 {not available when compiled without the |+wildignore| | |
8657 feature} | |
8658 A list of words that change how command line completion is done. | |
8659 Currently only one word is allowed: | |
8660 tagfile When using CTRL-D to list matching tags, the kind of | |
856 | 8661 tag and the file of the tag is listed. Only one match |
40 | 8662 is displayed per line. Often used tag kinds are: |
8663 d #define | |
8664 f function | |
8665 Also see |cmdline-completion|. | |
8666 | |
7 | 8667 *'winaltkeys'* *'wak'* |
8668 'winaltkeys' 'wak' string (default "menu") | |
8669 global | |
8670 {not in Vi} | |
8671 {only used in Win32, Motif, GTK and Photon GUI} | |
8672 Some GUI versions allow the access to menu entries by using the ALT | |
8673 key in combination with a character that appears underlined in the | |
8674 menu. This conflicts with the use of the ALT key for mappings and | |
8675 entering special characters. This option tells what to do: | |
8676 no Don't use ALT keys for menus. ALT key combinations can be | |
8677 mapped, but there is no automatic handling. This can then be | |
8678 done with the |:simalt| command. | |
8679 yes ALT key handling is done by the windowing system. ALT key | |
8680 combinations cannot be mapped. | |
8681 menu Using ALT in combination with a character that is a menu | |
10 | 8682 shortcut key, will be handled by the windowing system. Other |
7 | 8683 keys can be mapped. |
8684 If the menu is disabled by excluding 'm' from 'guioptions', the ALT | |
8685 key is never used for the menu. | |
36 | 8686 This option is not used for <F10>; on Win32 and with GTK <F10> will |
8687 select the menu, unless it has been mapped. | |
7 | 8688 |
164 | 8689 *'window'* *'wi'* |
8690 'window' 'wi' number (default screen height - 1) | |
8691 global | |
8692 Window height. Do not confuse this with the height of the Vim window, | |
8693 use 'lines' for that. | |
179 | 8694 Used for |CTRL-F| and |CTRL-B| when there is only one window and the |
8695 value is smaller than 'lines' minus one. The screen will scroll | |
8696 'window' minus two lines, with a minimum of one. | |
164 | 8697 When 'window' is equal to 'lines' minus one CTRL-F and CTRL-B scroll |
8698 in a much smarter way, taking care of wrapping lines. | |
8699 When resizing the Vim window, the value is smaller than 1 or more than | |
8700 or equal to 'lines' it will be set to 'lines' minus 1. | |
8701 {Vi also uses the option to specify the number of displayed lines} | |
8702 | |
7 | 8703 *'winheight'* *'wh'* *E591* |
8704 'winheight' 'wh' number (default 1) | |

8707 {not available when compiled without the |+windows| |
7 | 8708 feature} |
8709 Minimal number of lines for the current window. This is not a hard | |
10 | 8710 minimum, Vim will use fewer lines if there is not enough room. If the |
1621 | 8711 focus goes to a window that is smaller, its size is increased, at the |
8712 cost of the height of other windows. | |
8713 Set 'winheight' to a small number for normal editing. | |
8714 Set it to 999 to make the current window fill most of the screen. | |
8715 Other windows will be only 'winminheight' high. This has the drawback | |
8716 that ":all" will create only two windows. To avoid "vim -o 1 2 3 4" | |
8717 to create only two windows, set the option after startup is done, | |
8718 using the |VimEnter| event: > | |
8719 au VimEnter * set winheight=999 | |
8720 < Minimum value is 1. | |
8721 The height is not adjusted after one of the commands that change the | |
7 | 8722 height of the current window. |
8723 'winheight' applies to the current window. Use 'winminheight' to set | |
8724 the minimal height for other windows. | |

8751 {not available when compiled without the |+windows| |
7 | 8752 feature} |
8753 The minimal height of a window, when it's not the current window. | |
8754 This is a hard minimum, windows will never become smaller. | |
8755 When set to zero, windows may be "squashed" to zero lines (i.e. just a | |
8756 status bar) if necessary. They will return to at least one line when | |
8757 they become active (since the cursor has to have somewhere to go.) | |
8758 Use 'winheight' to set the minimal height of the current window. | |
8759 This option is only checked when making a window smaller. Don't use a | |
8760 large number, it will cause errors when opening more than a few | |
8761 windows. A value of 0 to 3 is reasonable. | |

8769 The minimal width of a window, when it's not the current window. | |
8770 This is a hard minimum, windows will never become smaller. | |
8771 When set to zero, windows may be "squashed" to zero columns (i.e. just | |
8772 a vertical separator) if necessary. They will return to at least one | |
8773 line when they become active (since the cursor has to have somewhere | |

8786 Minimal number of columns for the current window. This is not a hard | |
8787 minimum, Vim will use fewer columns if there is not enough room. If | |
8788 the current window is smaller, its size is increased, at the cost of | |

8790 always fill the screen. Set it to a small number for normal editing. | |
8791 The width is not adjusted after one of the commands to change the | |

8796 *'wrap'* *'nowrap'* | |
8797 'wrap' boolean (default on) | |
8798 local to window | |
8799 {not in Vi} | |
8800 This option changes how text is displayed. It doesn't change the text | |
8801 in the buffer, see 'textwidth' for that. | |
8802 When on, lines longer than the width of the window will wrap and | |
10 | 8803 displaying continues on the next line. When off lines will not wrap |
8804 and only part of long lines will be displayed. When the cursor is | |
7 | 8805 moved to a part that is not shown, the screen will scroll |
8806 horizontally. | |
8807 The line will be broken in the middle of a word if necessary. See | |
8808 'linebreak' to get the break at a word boundary. | |
8809 To make scrolling horizontally a bit more useful, try this: > | |
8810 :set sidescroll=5 | |
8811 :set listchars+=precedes:<,extends:> | |
8812 < See 'sidescroll', 'listchars' and |wrap-off|. | |

8817 'wrapmargin' 'wm' number (default 0) | |

8819 Number of characters from the right window border where wrapping | |
8820 starts. When typing text beyond this limit, an <EOL> will be inserted | |
8821 and inserting continues on the next line. | |
8822 Options that add a margin, such as 'number' and 'foldcolumn', cause | |
8823 the text width to be further reduced. This is Vi compatible. | |
8824 When 'textwidth' is non-zero, this option is not used. | |

8840 Allows writing files. When not set, writing a file is not allowed. | |
8841 Can be used for a view-only mode, where modifications to the text are | |
10 | 8842 still allowed. Can be reset with the |-m| or |-M| command line |

8856 Make a backup before overwriting a file. The backup is removed after | |
8857 the file was successfully written, unless the 'backup' option is | |
3513 | 8858 also on. |
8859 WARNING: Switching this option off means that when Vim fails to write | |
8860 your buffer correctly and then, for whatever reason, Vim exits, you | |
8861 lose both the original file and what you were writing. Only reset | |
8862 this option if your file system is almost full and it makes the write | |
8863 fail (and make sure not to exit Vim until the write was successful). | |
8864 See |backup-table| for another explanation. | |
7 | 8865 When the 'backupskip' pattern matches, a backup is not made anyway. |
8866 NOTE: This option is set to the default value when 'compatible' is | |
