patch 9.0.1898: Vim9: restrict access to static vars Commit: https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/c30a90d9b2c029f794cea502f6b824f71e4876dd Author: Yegappan Lakshmanan <yegappan@yahoo.com> Date: Fri Sep 15 20:14:55 2023 +0200 patch 9.0.1898: Vim9: restrict access to static vars Problem: Vim9: restrict access to static vars and methods Solution: Class members are accesible only from the class where they are defined. Based on the #13004 discussion, the following changes are made: 1) Static variables and methods are accessible only using the class name and inside the class where they are defined. 2) Static variables and methods can be used without the class name in the class where they are defined. 3) Static variables of a super class are not copied to the sub class. 4) A sub class can declare a class variable with the same name as the super class. 5) When a method or member is found during compilation, use more specific error messages. This aligns the Vim9 class variable/method implementation with the Dart implementation. Also while at it, ignore duplicate class and object methods. The access level of an object method can however be changed in a subclass. For the tests, use the new CheckSourceFailure() function instead of the CheckScriptFailure() function in the tests. closes: #13086 Signed-off-by: Christian Brabandt <cb@256bit.org> Co-authored-by: Yegappan Lakshmanan <yegappan@yahoo.com>

Tutor is a "hands on" tutorial for new users of the Vim editor.

Most new users can get through it in less than one hour. The result
is that you can do a simple editing task using the Vim editor.

Tutor is a file that contains the tutorial lessons. You can simply
execute "vim tutor" and then follow the instructions in the lessons.
The lessons tell you to modify the file, so DON'T DO THIS ON YOUR
ORIGINAL COPY.

On Unix you can also use the "vimtutor" program.  It will make a
scratch copy of the tutor first.

I have considered adding more advanced lessons but have not found the
time. Please let me know how you like it and send any improvements you
make.

Translation
-----------

The tutor.xx and tutor.xx.utf-8 files are translated files (where xx is the
language code).  The encoding of tutor.xx might be latin1 or other traditional
encoding.  If you don't need a translation with such traditional encoding,
you just need to prepare the tutor.xx.utf-8 file.
If you need another encoding, you can also prepare a file named tutor.xx.enc
(replace enc with the actual encoding name).  You might also need to adjust the
tutor.vim file.
The "make" command can be used for creating tutor.xx from tutor.xx.utf-8.
See the Makefile for detail.  (For some languages, tutor.xx.utf-8 is created
from tutor.xx for historical reasons.)
