15 *CTRL-L* | |
348 | 16 CTRL-L Clear and redraw the screen. The redraw may happen |
17 later, after processing typeahead. | |
7 | 18 |
19 *:redr* *:redraw* | |
20 :redr[aw][!] Redraw the screen right now. When ! is included it is | |
21 cleared first. | |
22 Useful to update the screen halfway executing a script | |
23 or function. Also when halfway a mapping and | |
24 'lazyredraw' is set. | |
25 | |
26 *:redraws* *:redrawstatus* | |
27 :redraws[tatus][!] Redraw the status line of the current window. When ! | |
28 is included all status lines are redrawn. | |
29 Useful to update the status line(s) when 'statusline' | |
30 includes an item that doesn't cause automatic | |
31 updating. | |
30547 | 32 If the command line is being edited the redraw is |
33 postponed until later. | |

7 | 78 *g8* |
79 g8 Print the hex values of the bytes used in the | |
80 character under the cursor, assuming it is in |UTF-8| | |
714 | 81 encoding. This also shows composing characters. The |
82 value of 'maxcombine' doesn't matter. | |
83 Example of a character with two composing characters: | |
7 | 84 e0 b8 81 + e0 b8 b9 + e0 b9 89 ~ |
777 | 85 |
86 *8g8* | |
87 8g8 Find an illegal UTF-8 byte sequence at or after the | |
88 cursor. This works in two situations: | |
89 1. when 'encoding' is any 8-bit encoding | |
90 2. when 'encoding' is "utf-8" and 'fileencoding' is | |
91 any 8-bit encoding | |
92 Thus it can be used when editing a file that was | |
93 supposed to be UTF-8 but was read as if it is an 8-bit | |
94 encoding because it contains illegal bytes. | |
95 Does not wrap around the end of the file. | |
96 Note that when the cursor is on an illegal byte or the | |
21991 | 97 cursor is halfway a multibyte character the command |
777 | 98 won't move the cursor. |
7 | 99 |
843 | 100 *:p* *:pr* *:print* *E749* |
169 | 101 :[range]p[rint] [flags] |
102 Print [range] lines (default current line). | |
7 | 103 Note: If you are looking for a way to print your text |
169 | 104 on paper see |:hardcopy|. In the GUI you can use the |
105 File.Print menu entry. | |

150 if there is no [range]. | |
7 | 151 |
22958 | 152 If there is a [count], that's how many lines you'll |
153 see; if there is no [count] and only one window then | |
154 twice the value of the 'scroll' option is used, | |
155 otherwise the current window height minus 3 is used. | |
156 This is the value of "scr" in the table below. | |
157 | |
158 If there is a [count] the 'window' option is set to | |
3237 | 159 its value. |
160 | |
7 | 161 :z can be used either alone or followed by any of |
21991 | 162 several marks. These have the following effect: |

169 | 188 :{range}= [flags] Prints the last line number in {range}. For example, |
7 | 189 this prints the current line number: > |
190 :.= | |
169 | 191 < See |ex-flags| for [flags]. |
7 | 192 |
193 :norm[al][!] {commands} *:norm* *:normal* | |
194 Execute Normal mode commands {commands}. This makes | |
195 it possible to execute Normal mode commands typed on | |
2596 | 196 the command-line. {commands} are executed like they |
197 are typed. For undo all commands are undone together. | |
1125 | 198 Execution stops when an error is encountered. |
4073 | 199 |
7 | 200 If the [!] is given, mappings will not be used. |
4073 | 201 Without it, when this command is called from a |
202 non-remappable mapping (|:noremap|), the argument can | |
203 be mapped anyway. | |
204 | |
7 | 205 {commands} should be a complete command. If |
206 {commands} does not finish a command, the last one | |
207 will be aborted as if <Esc> or <C-C> was typed. | |
208 This implies that an insert command must be completed | |
209 (to start Insert mode, see |:startinsert|). A ":" | |
161 | 210 command must be completed as well. And you can't use |
211 "Q" or "gQ" to start Ex mode. | |
4073 | 212 |
213 The display is not updated while ":normal" is busy. | |

216 1 (one) before it, "1 " is one space. |
4073 | 217 |
7 | 218 The 'insertmode' option is ignored for {commands}. |
4073 | 219 |
7 | 220 This command cannot be followed by another command, |
221 since any '|' is considered part of the command. | |
4073 | 222 |
7 | 223 This command can be used recursively, but the depth is |
224 limited by 'maxmapdepth'. | |
4073 | 225 |
7 | 226 An alternative is to use |:execute|, which uses an |
227 expression as argument. This allows the use of | |
2264 | 228 printable characters to represent special characters. |
4073 | 229 |
2264 | 230 Example: > |
7 | 231 :exe "normal \<c-w>\<c-w>" |
232 | |
233 :{range}norm[al][!] {commands} *:normal-range* | |
234 Execute Normal mode commands {commands} for each line | |
235 in the {range}. Before executing the {commands}, the | |
236 cursor is positioned in the first column of the range, | |
237 for each line. Otherwise it's the same as the | |
238 ":normal" command without a range. | |
239 | |
240 *:sh* *:shell* *E371* | |
241 :sh[ell] This command starts a shell. When the shell exits | |
242 (after the "exit" command) you return to Vim. The | |
243 name for the shell command comes from 'shell' option. | |
244 *E360* | |
245 Note: This doesn't work when Vim on the Amiga was | |
246 started in QuickFix mode from a compiler, because the | |
247 compiler will have set stdin to a non-interactive | |
248 mode. | |
249 | |
27036 | 250 *:!cmd* *:!* |
7 | 251 :!{cmd} Execute {cmd} with the shell. See also the 'shell' |
30967 | 252 and 'shelltype' option. |
27036 | 253 *E34* |
7 | 254 Any '!' in {cmd} is replaced with the previous |
255 external command (see also 'cpoptions'). But not when | |
256 there is a backslash before the '!', then that | |
257 backslash is removed. Example: ":!ls" followed by | |
258 ":!echo ! \! \\!" executes "echo ls ! \!". | |
5814 | 259 |
1624 | 260 A '|' in {cmd} is passed to the shell, you cannot use |
261 it to append a Vim command. See |:bar|. | |
5814 | 262 |
263 If {cmd} contains "%" it is expanded to the current | |
20753 | 264 file name, "#" is expanded to the alternate file name. |
265 Special characters in the file name are not escaped, | |
266 use quotes to avoid their special meaning: > | |
5814 | 267 :!ls "%" |
20753 | 268 < If the file name contains a "$" then single quotes |
269 might work better, but this only works if the file | |
270 name does not contain a single quote: > | |
5814 | 271 :!ls '%' |
272 < This should always work, but it's more typing: > | |
27903 | 273 :exe "!ls " .. shellescape(expand("%")) |
20753 | 274 < To get a literal "%" or "#" prepend it with a |
275 backslash. For example, to list all files starting | |
276 with "%": > | |
277 :!ls \%* | |
5814 | 278 < |
7 | 279 A newline character ends {cmd}, what follows is |
280 interpreted as a following ":" command. However, if | |
281 there is a backslash before the newline it is removed | |
282 and {cmd} continues. It doesn't matter how many | |
283 backslashes are before the newline, only one is | |
284 removed. | |
5814 | 285 |
7 | 286 On Unix the command normally runs in a non-interactive |
287 shell. If you want an interactive shell to be used | |
288 (to use aliases) set 'shellcmdflag' to "-ic". | |
289 For Win32 also see |:!start|. | |
5814 | 290 |
5908 | 291 After the command has been executed, the timestamp and |
292 size of the current file is checked |timestamp|. | |
5814 | 293 |
7 | 294 Vim redraws the screen after the command is finished, |
295 because it may have printed any text. This requires a | |
296 hit-enter prompt, so that you can read any messages. | |
297 To avoid this use: > | |
298 :silent !{cmd} | |
299 < The screen is not redrawn then, thus you have to use | |
300 CTRL-L or ":redraw!" if the command did display | |
31028 | 301 something. However, this depends on what the |t_ti| |
302 and |t_te| termcap entries are set to. | |
7 | 303 Also see |shell-window|. |
304 | |
305 *:!!* | |

7 | 309 :ve[rsion] Print the version number of the editor. If the |
310 compiler used understands "__DATE__" the compilation | |
311 date is mentioned. Otherwise a fixed release-date is | |
312 shown. | |
313 The following lines contain information about which | |
314 features were enabled when Vim was compiled. When | |
315 there is a preceding '+', the feature is included, | |
316 when there is a '-' it is excluded. To change this, | |
317 you have to edit feature.h and recompile Vim. | |
318 To check for this in an expression, see |has()|. | |
319 Here is an overview of the features. | |
320 The first column shows the smallest version in which | |
321 they are included: | |
13437 | 322 T tiny (always) |
7 | 323 S small |
324 N normal | |
325 B big | |
326 H huge | |
327 m manually enabled or depends on other features | |
18790 | 328 - never, feature was removed |
7 | 329 (none) system dependent |
330 Thus if a feature is marked with "N", it is included | |
331 in the normal, big and huge versions of Vim. | |
332 | |
333 *+feature-list* | |
5340 | 334 *+acl* |ACL| support included |
7 | 335 *+ARP* Amiga only: ARP support included |

568 variable type is changed, then further command output | |

571 and another `:redir` causes the current one to end, | |
572 the scope might be different and the assignment fails. | |

623 *:sil* *:silent* *:silent!* |
7 | 624 :sil[ent][!] {command} Execute {command} silently. Normal messages will not |
625 be given or added to the message history. | |
626 When [!] is added, error messages will also be | |
627 skipped, and commands and mappings will not be aborted | |
628 when an error is detected. |v:errmsg| is still set. | |
629 When [!] is not used, an error message will cause | |
630 further messages to be displayed normally. | |
631 Redirection, started with |:redir|, will continue as | |
632 usual, although there might be small differences. | |
633 This will allow redirecting the output of a command | |
634 without seeing it on the screen. Example: > | |
635 :redir >/tmp/foobar | |
636 :silent g/Aap/p | |
637 :redir END | |
638 < To execute a Normal mode command silently, use the | |
639 |:normal| command. For example, to search for a | |
640 string without messages: > | |
641 :silent exe "normal /path\<CR>" | |
642 < ":silent!" is useful to execute a command that may | |
643 fail, but the failure is to be ignored. Example: > | |
644 :let v:errmsg = "" | |
645 :silent! /^begin | |
646 :if v:errmsg != "" | |
647 : ... pattern was not found | |
648 < ":silent" will also avoid the hit-enter prompt. When | |
649 using this for an external command, this may cause the | |
650 screen to be messed up. Use |CTRL-L| to clean it up | |
651 then. | |
652 ":silent menu ..." defines a menu that will not echo a | |
653 Command-line command. The command will still produce | |
654 messages though. Use ":silent" in the command itself | |
655 to avoid that: ":silent menu .... :silent command". | |
656 | |
1926 | 657 *:uns* *:unsilent* |
658 :uns[ilent] {command} Execute {command} not silently. Only makes a | |
659 difference when |:silent| was used to get to this | |
660 command. | |
661 Use this for giving a message even when |:silent| was | |
662 used. In this example |:silent| is used to avoid the | |
663 message about reading the file and |:unsilent| to be | |
664 able to list the first line of each file. > | |
27903 | 665 :silent argdo unsilent echo expand('%') .. ": " .. getline(1) |
1926 | 666 < |
667 | |
7 | 668 *:verb* *:verbose* |
669 :[count]verb[ose] {command} | |
670 Execute {command} with 'verbose' set to [count]. If | |
8 | 671 [count] is omitted one is used. ":0verbose" can be |
672 used to set 'verbose' to zero. | |
7 | 673 The additional use of ":silent" makes messages |
674 generated but not displayed. | |
675 The combination of ":silent" and ":verbose" can be | |
676 used to generate messages and check them with | |
677 |v:statusmsg| and friends. For example: > | |
678 :let v:statusmsg = "" | |
679 :silent verbose runtime foobar.vim | |
680 :if v:statusmsg != "" | |
681 : " foobar.vim could not be found | |
682 :endif | |
683 < When concatenating another command, the ":verbose" | |
684 only applies to the first one: > | |
685 :4verbose set verbose | set verbose | |
686 < verbose=4 ~ | |
687 verbose=0 ~ | |
294 | 688 For logging verbose messages in a file use the |
689 'verbosefile' option. | |
7 | 690 |
484 | 691 *:verbose-cmd* |
692 When 'verbose' is non-zero, listing the value of a Vim option or a key map or | |
502 | 693 an abbreviation or a user-defined function or a command or a highlight group |
694 or an autocommand will also display where it was last defined. If it was | |
695 defined manually then there will be no "Last set" message. When it was | |
696 defined while executing a function, user command or autocommand, the script in | |
697 which it was defined is reported. | |

702 cursor. The name of the program is given with the | |
703 'keywordprg' (kp) option (default is "man"). The | |
704 keyword is formed of letters, numbers and the | |
705 characters in 'iskeyword'. The keyword under or | |
706 right of the cursor is used. The same can be done | |

2581 | 775 2. Using Vim like less or more *less* |
7 | 776 |
777 If you use the less or more program to view a file, you don't get syntax | |
778 highlighting. Thus you would like to use Vim instead. You can do this by | |
779 using the shell script "$VIMRUNTIME/macros/less.sh". | |
780 | |
781 This shell script uses the Vim script "$VIMRUNTIME/macros/less.vim". It sets | |
782 up mappings to simulate the commands that less supports. Otherwise, you can | |
783 still use the Vim commands. | |
784 | |
785 This isn't perfect. For example, when viewing a short file Vim will still use | |
21250 | 786 the whole screen. But it works well enough for most uses, and you get syntax |
7 | 787 highlighting. |
788 | |
789 The "h" key will give you a short overview of the available commands. | |
