patch 9.0.1915: r_CTRL-C works differently in visual mode Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/476733f3d06876c7ac105e064108c973a57984d3 Author: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> Date: Tue Sep 19 20:41:51 2023 +0200 patch 9.0.1915: r_CTRL-C works differently in visual mode Problem: r_CTRL-C works differently in visual mode Solution: Make r_CTRL-C behave consistent in visual mode in terminal and Windows GUI in visual mode, r CTRL-C behaves strange in Unix like environments. It seems to end visual mode, but still is waiting for few more chars, however it never seems to replace it by any characters and eventually just returns back into normal mode. In contrast in Windows GUI mode, r_CTRL-C replaces in the selected area all characters by a literal CTRL-C. Not sure why it behaves like this. It seems in the Windows GUI, got_int is not set and therefore behaves as if any other normal character has been pressed. So remove the special casing of what happens when got_int is set and make it always behave like in Windows GUI mode. Add a test to verify it always behaves like replacing in the selected area each selected character by a literal CTRL-C. closes: #13091 closes: #13112 Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org>

.B eVim
starts
.B Vim
and sets options to make it behave like a modeless editor.

will always run in the GUI, to enable the use of menus and toolbar.
.PP
Only to be used for people who really can't work with Vim in the normal way.
Editing will be much less efficient.
.PP
.B eview
is the same, but starts in read-only mode.  It works just like evim \-R.
.PP
See vim(1) for details about Vim, options, etc.
.PP
The 'insertmode' option is set to be able to type text directly.
.br
Mappings are setup to make Copy and Paste work with the MS-Windows keys.
CTRL-X cuts text, CTRL-C copies text and CTRL-V pastes text.
Use CTRL-Q to obtain the original meaning of CTRL-V.
.SH OPTIONS
See vim(1).
.SH FILES
.TP 15
/usr/local/lib/vim/evim.vim

make a knot in each corner and wear it on your head.

was made by Bram Moolenaar, with a lot of help from others.
