3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	62 to ASCII for the accelerator characters of the pull-down menus was forgotten.
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	63 Even after I tried to hand convert the menus, the accelerator keys continued
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	64 to only work for the opening of menus (like <Alt-F> to open the file menu).
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	65 They still do not work for the menu items themselves (like <Alt-F>O to open

3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	73 - Vim will consistently hang when a large amount of text is selected in
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	74 visual block mode. This may be due to a memory corruption issue. Note that
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	75 this occurs in both the terminal and gui versions.

7 3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	79
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	80 - No binary search in tag files.
236 4707450c2b33 updated for version 7.0066 vimboss parents: 7 diff changeset	81 The program /bin/sort sorts by ASCII value by default. This program is
4707450c2b33 updated for version 7.0066 vimboss parents: 7 diff changeset	82 normally used by ctags to sort the tags. There might be a version of
4707450c2b33 updated for version 7.0066 vimboss parents: 7 diff changeset	83 ctags out there, that does it right, but we can't be sure. So this seems to
7 3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	84 be a permanent restriction.
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	85
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	86 - The cscope interface (\|cscope\|) doesn't work for the version of cscope
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	87 that we use on our mainframe. We have a copy of version 15.0b12, and it
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	88 causes Vim to hang when using the "cscope add" command. I'm guessing that
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	89 the binary format of the cscope database isn't quite what Vim is expecting.
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	90 I've tried to port the current version of cscope (15.3) to z/OS, without
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	91 much success. If anyone is interested in trying, drop me a line if you
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	92 make any progress.
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	93
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	94 - No glib/gtk support. I have not been able to successfully compile glib on
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001 vimboss parents: diff changeset	95 z/OS UNIX. This means you'll have to live without the pretty gtk toolbar.
