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>

.SH DESCRIPTION
.B Vimdiff
starts

on two up to eight files.

The differences between the files are highlighted.
This is a nice way to inspect changes and to move changes from one version
to another version of the same file.
.PP
See vim(1) for details about Vim itself.
.PP
When started as
.B gvimdiff
the GUI will be started, if available.
.PP
In each window the 'diff' option will be set, which causes the differences
to be highlighted.
.br
The 'wrap' and 'scrollbind' options are set to make the text look good.
.br
The 'foldmethod' option is set to "diff", which puts ranges of lines without
changes in a fold.  'foldcolumn' is set to two to make it easy to spot the
folds and open or close them.
.SH OPTIONS
Vertical splits are used to align the lines, as if the "\-O" argument was used.
To use horizontal splits instead, use the "\-o" argument.
.PP
For all other arguments see vim(1).
