40==============================================================================
41INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES *incompatible-7*
42
43These changes are incompatible with previous releases. Check this list if you
Bram Moolenaarb2956cd2005-01-27 14:42:53 +000044run into a problem when upgrading from Vim 6.x to 7.0.
45
46A ":write file" command no longer resets the 'modified' flag of the buffer,
47unless the '+' flag is in 'cpoptions' |cpo-+|. This was illogical, since the
48buffer is still modified compared to the original file. And when undoing
49all changes the file would actually be marked modified. It does mean that
50":quit" fails now.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +000051
Bram Moolenaarf4b8e572004-06-24 15:53:16 +000052":helpgrep" now uses a help window to display a match.
53
Bram Moolenaar1cd871b2004-12-19 22:46:22 +000054In an argument list double quotes could be used to include spaces in a file
55name. This caused a difference between ":edit" and ":next" for escaping
56double quotes and it is incompatible with some versions of Vi.
57 Command Vim 6.x file name Vim 7.x file name ~
58 :edit foo\"888 'foo"888' 'foo"888'
59 :next foo\"888 'foo888' 'foo"888'
60 :next a\"b c\"d 'ab cd' 'a"b' and 'c"d'
61
Bram Moolenaar8c711452005-01-14 21:53:12 +000062In a |literal-string| a single quote can be doubled to get one.
63":echo 'a''b'" would result in "a b", but now that two quotes stand for one it
64results in "a'b".
65
Bram Moolenaar04a09c12005-08-01 22:02:32 +000066When overwriting a file with ":w! fname" there was no warning for when "fname"
67was being edited by another Vim. Vim now gives an error message |E768|.
68
Bram Moolenaarf4b8e572004-06-24 15:53:16 +000069
70Minor incompatibilities:
71
72For filetype detection: For many types, instead of ~/.dir/filename use
73*/.dir/filename, so that it also works for other user's files.
74
75":0verbose" now sets 'verbose' to zero instead of one.
76
77Removed the old and incomplete "VimBuddy" code.
78
79Buffers without a name report "No Name" instead of "No File". It was
80confusing for buffers with a name and 'buftype' set to "nofile".
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +000081
Bram Moolenaar7b0294c2004-10-11 10:16:09 +000082When ":file xxx" is used in a buffer without a name, the alternate file name
83isn't set. This avoids creating buffers without a name that are not useful.
84
85The "2html.vim" script now converts closed folds to HTML. This means the HTML
Bram Moolenaarf4630b62005-05-20 21:31:17 +000086looks like its displayed, with the same folds open and closed. Use "zR", or
87"let html_ignore_folding=1", if no folds should appear in the HTML. (partly by
88Carl Osterwisch)
Bram Moolenaar47136d72004-10-12 20:02:24 +000089Diff mode now is also converted as it is displayed.
Bram Moolenaar7b0294c2004-10-11 10:16:09 +000090
Bram Moolenaar293ee4d2004-12-09 21:34:53 +000091Win32: The effect of the <F10> key depended on 'winaltkeys'. Now it depends
92on whether <F10> has been mapped or not. This allows mapping <F10> without
93changing 'winaltkeys'.
94
Bram Moolenaar8c711452005-01-14 21:53:12 +000095When 'octal' is in 'nrformats' and using CTRL-A on "08" it became "018", which
96is illogical. Now it becomes "9". The leading zero(s) is(are) removed to
97avoid the number becoming octal after incrementing "009" to "010".
Bram Moolenaar1cd871b2004-12-19 22:46:22 +000098
99When 'encoding' is set to a Unicode encoding, the value for 'fileencodings'
100now includes "default" before "latin1". This means that for files with 8-bit
101encodings the default is to use the encoding specified by the environment, if
102possible. Previously latin1 would always be used, which is wrong in a
103non-latin1 environment, such as Russian.
104
Bram Moolenaard438e912005-01-31 19:21:46 +0000105Previously Vim would exit when there are two windows, both of them displaying
106a help file, and using ":quit". Now only the window is closed.
107
Bram Moolenaar4399ef42005-02-12 14:29:27 +0000108"-w {scriptout}" only works when {scriptout} doesn't start with a digit.
109Otherwise it's used to set the 'window' option.
110
Bram Moolenaar8bf59b92005-03-06 23:40:56 +0000111Previously <Home> and <xHome> could be mapped separately. This had the
112disadvantage that all mappings (with modifiers) had to be duplicated, since
113you can't be sure what the keyboard generates. Now all <xHome> are internally
114translated to <Home>, both for the keys and for mappings. Also for <xEnd>,
115<xF1>, etc.
116
Bram Moolenaar13fcaaf2005-04-15 21:13:42 +0000117":put" now leaves the cursor on the last inserted line.
118
Bram Moolenaar7fae6362005-06-30 22:06:41 +0000119When a .gvimrc file exists then 'compatible' is off, just like when a ".vimrc"
120file exists.
121
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000122==============================================================================
123NEW FEATURES *new-7*
124
Bram Moolenaarbac234e2005-01-17 22:21:07 +0000125Vim script enhancements *new-vim-script*
126-----------------------
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000127
128In Vim scripts the following types have been added:
129
Bram Moolenaar31c67ef2005-01-11 21:34:41 +0000130 List ordered list of items |List|
131 Dictionary associative array of items |Dictionary|
132 Funcref reference to a function |Funcref|
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000133
134Many functions and commands have been added to support the new types.
135
Bram Moolenaar31c67ef2005-01-11 21:34:41 +0000136The |string()| function can be used to get a string representation of a
137variable. Works for Numbers, Strings and composites of them. Then |eval()|
138can be used to turn the string back into the variable value.
139
Bram Moolenaarbac234e2005-01-17 22:21:07 +0000140The |:let| command can now use ":let var += expr" like using ":let var = var +
141expr". "-=" and ".=" works in a similar way.
142
Bram Moolenaar038eb0e2005-02-27 22:43:26 +0000143With the |:profile| command you can find out where your function or script
144wastes its time.
145
Bram Moolenaar843ee412004-06-30 16:16:41 +0000146
Bram Moolenaar60c78922005-03-20 22:40:14 +0000147Spell checking *new-spell*
148--------------
149
150Spell checking has been integrated in Vim. There were a few implementations
151with scripts, but they were slow and/or required an external program.
152
153The 'spell' option is used to switch spell checking on or off.
154The 'spelllang' option is used to specify the languages that are accepted.
Bram Moolenaar9ba0eb82005-06-13 22:28:56 +0000155The 'spellfile' option specifies where new words are added.
Bram Moolenaar7fae6362005-06-30 22:06:41 +0000156The 'spellsuggest' option specifies the methods used for making suggestions
Bram Moolenaar9ba0eb82005-06-13 22:28:56 +0000157
158The |[s| and |]s| commands can be used to move to the next or previous error.
159The |zg| and |zw| commands can be used to add good and wrong words.
160The |z?| command can be used to correct the word.
Bram Moolenaar7fae6362005-06-30 22:06:41 +0000161The |:mkspell| command is used to generate a Vim spell file from word lists.
Bram Moolenaar60c78922005-03-20 22:40:14 +0000162
163The "undercurl" highlighting attribute was added to nicely point out spelling
164mistakes in the GUI (based on patch from Marcin Dalecki).
165The "guisp" color can be used to give it a color different from foreground and
166background.
167The number of possible different highlight attributes was raised from about
168220 to over 30000. This allows for the attributes of spelling to be combined
Bram Moolenaar75c50c42005-06-04 22:06:24 +0000169with syntax highlighting attributes. This is also used for syntax
170highlighting.
Bram Moolenaar60c78922005-03-20 22:40:14 +0000171
172Much more info here: |spell|.
173
174
Bram Moolenaar325b7a22004-07-05 15:58:32 +0000175KDE support *new-KDE*
Bram Moolenaar843ee412004-06-30 16:16:41 +0000176-----------
177
178Kvim is the KDE version of Vim. It uses the Qt toolkit. See |KVim|.

Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000181
Bram Moolenaar325b7a22004-07-05 15:58:32 +0000182MzScheme interface *new-MzScheme*
183------------------
184
185The MzScheme interpreter is supported. |MzScheme|
186The |:mzscheme| command can be used to execute MzScheme commands.
187The |:mzfile| command can be used to execute an MzScheme script file.
188
Bram Moolenaar31c67ef2005-01-11 21:34:41 +0000189
Bram Moolenaar8299df92004-07-10 09:47:34 +0000190Printing multi-byte text *new-print-multi-byte*
191------------------
192
193The |:hardcopy| command now supports printing multi-byte characters.
194The 'printmbcharset' and 'printmbfont' options are used for this.
195Also see |postscript-cjk-printing|. (Mike Williams)
196
Bram Moolenaar325b7a22004-07-05 15:58:32 +0000197
Bram Moolenaar293ee4d2004-12-09 21:34:53 +0000198Translated manual pages *new-manpage-trans*
199-----------------------
200
201The manual page of Vim and associated programs is now also available in
Bram Moolenaar4ad237d2005-03-11 22:49:40 +0000202several other languages.
203
Bram Moolenaar13fcaaf2005-04-15 21:13:42 +0000204French - translated by David Blanchet
Bram Moolenaar4ad237d2005-03-11 22:49:40 +0000205Italian - translated by Antonio Colombo
206Russian - translated by Vassily Ragosin
Bram Moolenaar293ee4d2004-12-09 21:34:53 +0000207
Bram Moolenaar13fcaaf2005-04-15 21:13:42 +0000208The Unix Makefile installs the Italian manual pages in .../man/it/man1/,
209.../man/it.ISO8859-1/man1/ and .../man/it.UTF-8/man1/. There appears to be no
210standard for what encoding goes in the "it" directory, the 8-bit encoded file
211is used there as a best guess.
212Other languages are installed in similar places.
Bram Moolenaar67fe1a12005-05-22 22:12:58 +0000213The translated pages are not automatically installed when Vim was configured
214with "--disable-nls", but "make install-languages install-tool-languages" will
215do it anyway.
Bram Moolenaarb5bf5b82004-12-24 14:35:23 +0000216
Bram Moolenaar293ee4d2004-12-09 21:34:53 +0000217
Bram Moolenaar8fc061c2004-12-29 21:03:02 +0000218Internal grep *new-vimgrep*
219-------------
220
221The ":vimgrep" command can be used to search for a pattern in a list of files.
222This is like the ":grep" command, but no external program is used. Besides
223better portability, handling of different file encodings and using multi-line
224patterns, this also allows grepping in compressed and remote files.
225|:vimgrep|.
226
Bram Moolenaar05159a02005-02-26 23:04:13 +0000227If you want to use the search results in a script you can use the
Bram Moolenaar2641f772005-03-25 21:58:17 +0000228|getqflist()| function.
Bram Moolenaar05159a02005-02-26 23:04:13 +0000229
Bram Moolenaar231334e2005-07-25 20:46:57 +0000230To search in files in various directories the "**" pattern can be used. It
231expands into an arbitrary depth of directories. "**" can be used in all
232places where file names are expanded, thus also with |:next| and |:args|.
233
Bram Moolenaar8fc061c2004-12-29 21:03:02 +0000234
Bram Moolenaar87e25fd2005-07-27 21:13:01 +0000235Scroll back in messages *new-scroll-back*
236-----------------------
237
238When displaying messages, at the |more-prompt| and the |hit-enter-prompt|, The
239'k', 'u' and 'b' keys can be used to scroll back to previous messages. This
240is especially useful for commands such as ":syntax", ":autocommand" and
241":highlight". This is implemented in a generic way thus it works for all
242commands and highlighting is kept. Only works when the 'more' option is set.
243Previously it only partly worked for ":clist".
244
Bram Moolenaar661b1822005-07-28 22:36:45 +0000245The |g<| command can be used to see the last page of messages after you have
246hit <Enter> at the |hit-enter-prompt|. Then you can scroll further back.
247
Bram Moolenaar87e25fd2005-07-27 21:13:01 +0000248
Bram Moolenaar4399ef42005-02-12 14:29:27 +0000249POSIX compatibility *new-posix*
250-------------------
251
252The POSIX test suite was used to verify POSIX compatibility. A number of
253problems have been fixed to make Vim more POSIX compatible. Some of them
254conflict with traditional Vi or expected behavior. The $VIM_POSIX environment
255variable can be set to get POSIX compatibility. See |posix|.
256
257Items that were fixed for both Vi and POSIX compatibilty:
258- repeating "R" with a count only overwrites text once; added the 'X' flag to
259 'cpoptions' |cpo-X|
260- a vertical movement command that moves to a non-existing line fails; added
261 the '-' flag to 'cpoptions' |cpo--|
262- when preserving a file and doing ":q!" the file can be recovered; added the
263 '&' flag to 'cpoptions' |cpo-&|
264- The 'window' option is partly implemented. It specifies how much CTRL-F and
265 CTRL-B scroll when there is one window. The "-w {number}" argument is now
266 accepted. "-w {scriptout}" only works when {scriptout} doesn't start with a
267 digit.
268- Allow "-c{command}" argument, no space between "-c" and {command}.
269- When writing a file with ":w!" don't reset 'readonly' when 'Z' is present in
270 'cpoptions'.
Bram Moolenaar5313dcb2005-02-22 08:56:13 +0000271- Allow 'l' and '#' flags for ":list", ":print" and ":number".
272- Added the '.' flag to 'cpoptions': ":cd" fails when the buffer is modified.
273- In Ex mode with an empty buffer ":read file" doesn't keep an empty line
274 above or below the new lines.
275- Remove a backslash before a NL for the ":global" command.
276- When ":append", ":insert" or ":change" is used with ":global", get the
277 inserted lines from the command. Can use backslash-NL to separate lines.
278- Can use ":global /pat/ visual" to execute Normal mode commands at each
279 matched line. Use "Q" to continue and go to the next line.
280- The |:open| command has been partially implemented. It stops Ex mode, but
281 redraws the whole screen, not just one line as open mode is supposed to do.
282- Support using a pipe to read the output from and write input to an external
283 command. Added the 'shelltemp' option and has("filterpipe").
284- In ex silent mode the ":set" command output is displayed.
285- The ":@@" and ":**" give an error message when no register was used before.
286- The search pattern "[]-`]" matches ']', '^', '_' and '`'.
287- Autoindent for ":insert" is using the line below the insert.
288- Autoindent for ":change" is using the first changed line.
289- Editing Ex command lines is not done in cooked mode, because CTRL-D and
290 CTRL-T cannot be handled then.
Bram Moolenaar45eeb132005-06-06 21:59:07 +0000291- In Ex mode, "1,3" prints three lines. "%" prints all lines.
292- In Ex mode "undo" would undo all changes since Ex mode was started.
Bram Moolenaar5313dcb2005-02-22 08:56:13 +0000293- Implemented the 'prompt' option.
Bram Moolenaar4399ef42005-02-12 14:29:27 +0000294
295
Bram Moolenaare2ac10d2005-03-07 23:26:06 +0000296Debugger support *new-debug-support*
297----------------
298
299The 'balloonexpr' option has been added. This is a generic way to implement
300balloon functionality. You can use it to show info for the word under the
301mouse pointer.
302
303
Bram Moolenaar0be6e642005-08-04 21:32:22 +0000304Remote file explorer *new-netrw-explore*
305--------------------
306
307The netrw plugin now also supports viewing a directory, when "scp://" is used.
308Deleting and renaming files is possible.
309
310To avoid duplicating a lot of code, the previous file explorer plugin has been
311integrated in the netrw plugin. This means browsing local and remote files
312works the same way.
313
314":browse edit" and ":browse split" use the netrw plugin when it's available
315and a GUI dialog is not possible.
316
317The netrw plugin is maintained by Charles Campbell.

Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000567==============================================================================
568IMPROVEMENTS *improvements-7*
569
Bram Moolenaarf4b8e572004-06-24 15:53:16 +0000570":helpgrep" accepts a language specifier after the pattern: "pat@it".
571
Bram Moolenaar8299df92004-07-10 09:47:34 +0000572Move the help for printing to a separate help file. It's quite a lot now.
573
Bram Moolenaar8bf59b92005-03-06 23:40:56 +0000574The pattern matching code was changed from a recursive function to an
575iterative mechanism. This avoids out-of-stack errors. State is stored in
576allocated memory, running out of memory can always be detected. Allows
577matching more complex things, but Vim may seem to hang while doing that.
578
Bram Moolenaarf4b8e572004-06-24 15:53:16 +0000579":breakadd here" and ":breakdel here" can be used to set or delete a
580breakpoint at the cursor.
581
Bram Moolenaar843ee412004-06-30 16:16:41 +0000582The tutor was updated to make it simpler to use and added text to explain a
583few more important commands. Used ideas from Gabriel Zachmann.

587
Bram Moolenaar592e0a22004-07-03 16:05:59 +0000588Added "nbsp" in 'listchars'. (David Blanchet)
589
Bram Moolenaar21cf8232004-07-16 20:18:37 +0000590Added the "acwrite" value for the 'buftype' option. This is for a buffer that
591doesn not have a name that refers to a file and is written with BufWriteCmd
592autocommands.
593
Bram Moolenaar325b7a22004-07-05 15:58:32 +0000594For lisp indenting and matching parenthesis: (Sergey Khorev)
595- square brackets are recognized properly
596- #\(, #\), #\[ and #\] are recognized as character literals
597- Lisp line comments (delimited by semicolon) are recognized
598
Bram Moolenaar89cb5e02004-07-19 20:55:54 +0000599Added the "count" argument to match(), matchend() and matchstr(). (Ilya Sher)
600
Bram Moolenaar5eb86f92004-07-26 12:53:41 +0000601winnr() takes an optional "$" and "#" arguments. (Nikolai Weibull, Yegappan
602Lakshmanan)
603
604Added 'n' flag to search(): don't move the cursor. (Nikolai Weibull)
605
Bram Moolenaard4755bb2004-09-02 19:12:26 +0000606When uncompressing fails in the gzip plugin, give an error message but don't
607delete the raw text. Helps if the file has a .gz extension but is not
608actually compressed. (Andrew Pimlott)
609
610When C, C++ or IDL syntax is used, may additionally load doxygen syntax.
611Also support setting the filetype to "cdoxygen" for C plus doxygen syntax.
612(Michael Geddes)
613
614The ":registers" command now displays multi-byte characters properly.
615
616VMS: In the usage message mention that a slash can be used to make a flag
617upper case. Add color support to the builtin vt320 terminal codes.
618(Zoltan Arpadffy)
619
Bram Moolenaar15d0a8c2004-09-06 17:44:46 +0000620For the '%' item in 'viminfo', allow a number to set a maximum for the number
621of buffers.
622
Bram Moolenaarb5bf5b82004-12-24 14:35:23 +0000623The 'statusline' option can be local to the window, so that each window can
624have a different value. (partly by Yegappan Lakshmanan)
625
Bram Moolenaar3fdfa4a2004-10-07 21:02:47 +0000626When a file looks like a shell script, check for an "exec" command that starts
627the tcl interpreter. (suggested by Alexios Zavras)
628
629Support conversion between utf-8 and latin9 (iso-8859-15) internally, so that
630digraphs still work when iconv is not available.
631
Bram Moolenaar293ee4d2004-12-09 21:34:53 +0000632When a session file is loaded while editing an unnamed, empty buffer that
633buffer is wiped out. Avoids that there is an unused buffer in the buffer
634list.
635
636Win32: When libintl.dll supports bind_textdomain_codeset(), use it.
637(NAKADAIRA Yukihiro)
638
639When foldtext() finds no text after removing the comment leader, use the
640second line of the fold. Helps for C-style /* */ comments where the first
641line is just "/*".
642
Bram Moolenaar1cd871b2004-12-19 22:46:22 +0000643When editing the same file from two systems (e.g., Unix and MS-Windows) there
644mostly was no warning for an existing swap file, because the name of the
645edited file differs (e.g., y:\dir\file vs /home/me/dir/file). Added a flag to
646the swap file to indicate it is in the same directory as the edited file. The
647used path then doesn't matter and the check for editing the same file is much
648more reliable.
649
650Client-server communication now supports 'encoding'. When setting 'encoding'
651in a Vim server to "utf-8", and using "vim --remote fname" in a console,
652"fname" is converted from the console encoding to utf-8. Also allows Vims
653with different 'encoding' settings to exchange messages.
654
Bram Moolenaar86b68352004-12-27 21:59:20 +0000655Internal: Changed ga_room into ga_maxlen, so that it doesn't need to be
656incremented/decremented each time.
657
Bram Moolenaar2079a602005-01-04 21:43:22 +0000658Included a few improvements for Motif from Marcin Dalecki. Draw label
Bram Moolenaar567e4de2004-12-31 21:01:02 +0000659contents ourselves to make them handle fonts in a way configurable by Vim and
660a bit less dependent on the X11 font management.
661
Bram Moolenaar49cd9572005-01-03 21:06:01 +0000662When a register is empty it is not stored in the viminfo file.
663
Bram Moolenaar8c711452005-01-14 21:53:12 +0000664Removed the tcltags script, it's obsolete.
665
Bram Moolenaar67fe1a12005-05-22 22:12:58 +0000666":redir @*>>" and ":redir @+>>" append to the clipboard. Better check for
Bram Moolenaar5313dcb2005-02-22 08:56:13 +0000667invalid characters after the register name. |:redir|
668
669":redir => variable" and ":redir =>> variable" write or append to a variable.
670(Yegappan Lakshmanan) |:redir|
Bram Moolenaardcaf10e2005-01-21 11:55:25 +0000671
Bram Moolenaar231334e2005-07-25 20:46:57 +0000672":redir @{a-z}>>" appends to register a to z. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
Bram Moolenaar67fe1a12005-05-22 22:12:58 +0000673
Bram Moolenaar54ee7752005-05-31 22:22:17 +0000674The 'verbosefile' option can be used to log messages in a file. Verbose
675messages are not displayed then. The "-V{filename}" argument can be used to
676log startup messages.
677
Bram Moolenaardcaf10e2005-01-21 11:55:25 +0000678":let g:" lists global variables.
679":let b:" lists buffer-local variables.
680":let w:" lists window-local variables.
681":let v:" lists Vim variables.
682
Bram Moolenaard438e912005-01-31 19:21:46 +0000683The stridx() and strridx() functions take a third argument, where to start
684searching. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
Bram Moolenaarb71ec9f2005-01-25 22:22:02 +0000685
Bram Moolenaar67fe1a12005-05-22 22:12:58 +0000686The getreg() function takes an extra argument to be able to get the expression
687for the '=' register instead of the result of evaluating it.
688
689The setline() function can take a List argument to set multiple lines. When
690the line number is just below the last line the line is appended.
691
Bram Moolenaarbee0c5b2005-02-07 22:03:36 +0000692g CTRL-G also shows the number of characters if it differs from the number of
693bytes.
694
Bram Moolenaar5313dcb2005-02-22 08:56:13 +0000695Completion for ":debug" and entering an expression for the '=' register. Skip
696":" between range and command name. (Peter winters)
697
698CTRL-Q in Insert mode now works like CTRL-V by default. Previously it was
699ignored.
700
701When "beep" is included in 'debug' a function or script that causes a beep
702will result in a message with the source of the error.
703
Bram Moolenaar05159a02005-02-26 23:04:13 +0000704When completing buffer names, match with "\(^\|[\/]\)" instead of "^", so that
705":buf stor<Tab>" finds both "include/storage.h" and "storage/main.c".
706
707To count items (pattern matches) without changing the buffer the 'n' flag has
708been added to |:substitute|. See |count-items|.
709
Bram Moolenaar038eb0e2005-02-27 22:43:26 +0000710The "screen.linux" $TERM name is recognized to set the default for
Bram Moolenaar19a09a12005-03-04 23:39:37 +0000711'background' to "dark". (Ciaran McCreesh) Also for "cygwin".
712
713The |FileChangedShell| autocommand event can now use the |v:fcs_reason|
714variable that specifies what triggered the event. |v:fcs_choice| can be used
715to reload the buffer or ask the user what to do.
Bram Moolenaar038eb0e2005-02-27 22:43:26 +0000716
Bram Moolenaar8bf59b92005-03-06 23:40:56 +0000717Not all modifiers were recognized for xterm function keys. Added the
718possibility in term codes to end in ";*X" or "O*X", where X is any character
719and the * stands for the modifier code.
720Added the <xUp>, <xDown>, <xLeft> and <xRight> keys, to be able to recognize
721the two forms that xterm can send their codes in and still handle all possible
722modifiers.
723
Bram Moolenaarc0761132005-03-18 20:30:32 +0000724getwinvar() now also works to obtain a buffer-local option from the specified
725window.
726
Bram Moolenaarb982ca52005-03-28 21:02:15 +0000727Added the "%s" item to 'errorformat'. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
728
Bram Moolenaar34cdc3e2005-05-18 22:24:46 +0000729GTK GUI: use the GTK file dialog when it's available. Mix from patches by
730Grahame Bowland and Evan Webb.
731
Bram Moolenaar9ba0eb82005-06-13 22:28:56 +0000732Added ":scriptnames" to bugreport.vim, so that we can see what plugins were
733used.
734
Bram Moolenaar520470a2005-06-16 21:59:56 +0000735Win32: If the user changes the setting for the number of lines a scroll wheel
736click scrolls it is now used immediately. Previously Vim would need to be
737restarted.
738
Bram Moolenaarb2ec3072005-06-17 22:02:20 +0000739When using @= in an expression the value is expression @= contains. ":let @=
740= value" can be used to set the register contents.
741
Bram Moolenaar51bab742005-07-08 22:31:03 +0000742A ! can be added to ":popup" to have the popup menu appear at the mouse
743pointer position instead of the text cursor.
744
Bram Moolenaard8e9bb22005-07-09 21:14:46 +0000745The table with encodings has been expanded with many MS-Windows codepages,
746such as cp1250 and cp737, so that these can also be used on Unix without
747prepending "8bit-".
Bram Moolenaarae5bce12005-08-15 21:41:48 +0000748When an encoding name starts with "microsoft-cp" ignore the "microsoft-" part.
Bram Moolenaard8e9bb22005-07-09 21:14:46 +0000749
750Added the "customlist" completion argument to a user-defined command. The
751user-defined completion function should return the completion candidates as a
Bram Moolenaar231334e2005-07-25 20:46:57 +0000752Vim List and the returned results are not filtered by Vim. (Yegappan
753Lakshmanan)
Bram Moolenaard8e9bb22005-07-09 21:14:46 +0000754
Bram Moolenaar342337a2005-07-21 21:11:17 +0000755Win32: Balloons can have multiple lines if common controls supports it.
756(Sergey Khorev)
757
Bram Moolenaar231334e2005-07-25 20:46:57 +0000758The 's' flag is added to the search() and searchpair() function to set the
759' mark if the cursor is moved. (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
760
Bram Moolenaar0be6e642005-08-04 21:32:22 +0000761For 'errorformat' it was not possible to have a file name that contains the
762character that follows after "%f". For example, in "%f:%l:%m" the file name
763could not contain ":". Now include the first ":" where the rest of the
764pattern matches. In the example a ":" not followed by a line number is
765included in the file name. (suggested by Emanuele Giaquinta)
766
Bram Moolenaar90cfdbe2005-08-12 19:59:19 +0000767For command-line completion the matches for various types of arguments are now
768sorted: user commands, variables, syntax names, etc.
769
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000770==============================================================================
771COMPILE TIME CHANGES *compile-changes-7*
772
Bram Moolenaar2079a602005-01-04 21:43:22 +0000773Dropped the support for the BeOS and Amiga GUI. They were not maintained and
774probably didn't work. If you want to work on this: get the Vim 6.x version
775and merge it back in.
776
Bram Moolenaarab79bcb2004-07-18 21:34:53 +0000777Mac: "make" now creates the Vim.app directory and "make install" copies it to
778its final destination. (Raf)
779
780Mac: Made it possible to compile with Motif, Athena or GTK without tricks and
781still being able to use the MacRoman conversion. Added the os_mac_conv.c
782file.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000783
Bram Moolenaar5313dcb2005-02-22 08:56:13 +0000784When running the tests and one of them fails to produce "test.out" the
785following tests are still executed. This helps when running out of memory.
786
Bram Moolenaarf461c8e2005-06-25 23:04:51 +0000787When compiling with EXITFREE defined and the ccmalloc library it is possible
788to detect memory leaks. Some memory will always reported as leaked, such as
789allocated by X11 library functions and the memory allocated in alloc_cmdbuff()
790to store the ":quit" command.
791
Bram Moolenaar231334e2005-07-25 20:46:57 +0000792Moved the code for printing to src/hardcopy.c.
793
794Moved some code from main() to separate functions to make it easier to see
795what is being done. Use a structure to avoid a lot of arguments to the
796functions.
797
798Moved unix_expandpath() to misc1.c, so that it can also be used by os_mac.c
799without copying the code.
800
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000801==============================================================================
802BUG FIXES *bug-fixes-7*
803
Bram Moolenaarf4b8e572004-06-24 15:53:16 +0000804When using PostScript printing on MS-DOS the default 'printexpr' used "lpr"
805instead of "copy". When 'printdevice' was empty the copy command did not
806work. Use "LPT1" then.
807
808The GTK font dialog uses a font size zero when the font name doesn't include a
809size. Use a default size of 10.
810
811This example in the documentation didn't work:
812 :e `=foo . ".c" `
813Skip over the expression in `=expr` when looking for comments, |, % and #.
814
815When ":helpgrep" doesn't find anything there is no error message.
816
817"L" and "H" did not take closed folds into account.
818
819Win32: The "-P title" argument stopped at the first title that matched, even
820when it doesn't support MDI.
821
822Mac GUI: CTRL-^ and CTRL-@ did not work.
823
824"2daw" on "word." at the end of a line didn't include the preceding white
825space.
826
827Win32: Using FindExecutable() doesn't work to find a program. Use
828SearchPath() instead. For executable() use $PATHEXT when the program searched
829for doesn't have an extension.
830
831When 'virtualedit' is set, moving the cursor up after appending a character
832may move it to a different column. Was caused by auto-formatting moving the
833cursor and not putting it back where it was.
834
835When indent was added automatically and then moving the cursor, the indent was
836not deleted (like when pressing ESC). The "I" flag in 'cpoptions' can be used
837to make it work the old way.
838
Bram Moolenaarf4b8e572004-06-24 15:53:16 +0000839When opening a command-line window, 'textwidth' gets set to 78 by the Vim
840filetype plugin. Reset 'textwidth' to 0 to avoid lines are broken.
841
842After using cursor(line, col) moving up/down doesn't keep the same column.
843
844Win32: Borland C before 5.5 requires using ".u." for LowPart and HighPart
845fields. (Walter Briscoe)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000846
Bram Moolenaar843ee412004-06-30 16:16:41 +0000847On Sinix SYS_NMLN isn't always defined. Define it ourselves. (Cristiano De
848Michele)
849
Bram Moolenaar325b7a22004-07-05 15:58:32 +0000850Printing with PostScript may keep the printer waiting for more. Append a
851CTRL-D to the printer output. (Mike Williams)
852
Bram Moolenaar2df6dcc2004-07-12 15:53:54 +0000853When converting a string with a hex or octal number the leading '-' was
854ignored. ":echo '-05' + 0" resulted in 5 instead of -5.
855
856Using "@:" to repeat a command line didn't work when it contains control
Bram Moolenaar90cfdbe2005-08-12 19:59:19 +0000857characters. Also remove "'<,'>" when in Visual mode to avoid that it appears
858twice.
Bram Moolenaar2df6dcc2004-07-12 15:53:54 +0000859
Bram Moolenaar21cf8232004-07-16 20:18:37 +0000860When using file completion for a user command, it would not expand environment
861variables like for a regular command with a file argument.
862
863'cindent': When the argument of a #define looks like a C++ class the next line
864is indented too much.
865
866When 'comments' includes multi-byte characters inserting the middle part and
867alignment may go wrong. 'cindent' also suffers from this for right-aligned
868items.
869
Bram Moolenaar05159a02005-02-26 23:04:13 +0000870Win32: when 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" getenv() still returns strings in the
871active codepage. Convert to utf-8. Also for $HOME.
872
Bram Moolenaarab79bcb2004-07-18 21:34:53 +0000873The default for 'helplang' was "zh" for both "zh_cn" and "zh_tw". Now use
874"cn" or "tw" as intended.
875
Bram Moolenaar5eb86f92004-07-26 12:53:41 +0000876When 'bin' is set and 'eol' is not set then line2byte() added the line break
877after the last line while it's not there.
878
879Using foldlevel() in a WinEnter autocommand may not work. Noticed when
880resizing the GUI shell upon startup.
881
882Python: Using buffer.append(f.readlines()) didn't work. Allow appending a
883string with a trailing newline. The newline is ignored.
884
Bram Moolenaar269ec652004-07-29 08:43:53 +0000885When using the ":saveas f2" command for buffer "f1", the Buffers menu would
886contain "f2" twice, one of them leading to "f1". Also trigger the BufFilePre
887and BufFilePost events for the alternate buffer that gets the old name.
888
Bram Moolenaard4755bb2004-09-02 19:12:26 +0000889strridx() did not work well when the needle is empty. (Ciaran McCreesh)
890
891GTK: Avoid a potential hang in gui_mch_wait_for_chars() when input arrives
892just before it is invoked
893
894VMS: Occasionally CR characters were inserted in the file. Expansion of
895environment variables was not correct. (Zoltan Arpadffy)
896
897UTF-8: When 'delcombine' is set "dw" only deleted the last combining character
898from the first character of the word.
899
900When using ":sball" in an autocommand only the filetype in one buffer was
901detected. Reset did_filetype in enter_buffer().
902
903When using ":argdo" and the window already was at the first argument index,
904but not actually editing it, the current buffer would be used instead.
905
Bram Moolenaar15d0a8c2004-09-06 17:44:46 +0000906When ":next dir/*" includes many matches, adding the names to the argument
907list may take an awful lot of time and can't be interrupted. Allow
908interrupting this.
909
910When editing a file that was already loaded in a buffer, modelines were not
911used. Now window-local options in the modeline are set. Buffer-local options
912and global options remain unmodified.
913
914Win32: When 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" in the vimrc file, files from the
915command line with non-ASCII characters are not used correctly. Recode the
916file names when 'encoding' is set, using the Unicode command line.
917
Bram Moolenaarc0197e22004-09-13 20:26:32 +0000918Win32 console: When the default for 'encoding' ends up to be "latin1", the
919default value of 'isprint' was wrong.
920
921When an error message is given while waiting for a character (e.g., when an
922xterm reports the number of colors), the hit-enter prompt overwrote the last
923line. Don't reset msg_didout in normal_cmd() for K_IGNORE.
924
Bram Moolenaar3fdfa4a2004-10-07 21:02:47 +0000925Mac GUI: Shift-Tab didn't work.
926
927When defining tooltip text, don't translate terminal codes, since it's not
928going to be used like a command.
929
930GTK 2: Check the tooltip text for valid utf-8 characters to avoid getting a
931GTK error. Invalid characters may appear when 'encoding' is changed.
932
933GTK 2: Add a safety check for invalid utf-8 sequences, they can crash pango.
934
935Win32: When 'encoding' is changed while starting up, use the Unicode command
936line to convert the file arguments to 'encoding'. Both for the GUI and the
937console version.
938
939Win32 GUI: latin9 text (iso-8859-15) was not displayed correctly, because
940there is no codepage for latin9. Do our own conversion from latin9 to UCS2.
941
Bram Moolenaar7b0294c2004-10-11 10:16:09 +0000942When two versions of GTK+ 2 are installed it was possible to use the header
943files from one and the library from the other. Use GTK_LIBDIR to put the
944directory for the library early in the link flags.
945
946With the GUI find/replace dialog a replace only worked if the pattern was
947literal text. Now it works for any pattern.
948
Bram Moolenaar293ee4d2004-12-09 21:34:53 +0000949When 'equalalways' is set and 'eadirection' is "hor", ":quit" would still
950cause equalizing window heights in the vertical direction.
951
952When ":emenu" is used in a startup script the command was put in the typeahead
953buffer, causing a prompt for the crypt key to be messed up.
954
955Mac OS/X: The default for 'isprint' included characters 128-160, causes
956problems for Terminal.app.
957
958When a syntax item with "containedin" is used, it may match in the start or
959end of a region with a matchgroup, while this doesn't happen for a "contains"
960argument.
961
962When a transparent syntax items matches in another item where the highlighting
963has already stopped (because of a he= argument), the highlighting would come
964back.
965
966When cscope is used to set the quickfix error list, it didn't get set if there
967was only one match. (Sergey Khorev)
968
969When 'confirm' is set and using ":bdel" in a modified buffer, then selecting
970"cancel", would still give an error message.
971
972The PopUp menu items that started Visual mode didn't work when not in Normal
973mode. Switching between selecting a word and a line was not possible.
974
975Win32: The keypad decimal point always resulted in a '.', while on some
976keyboards it's a ','. Use MapVirtualKey(VK_DECIMAL, 2).
977
978Removed unused function DisplayCompStringOpaque() from gui_w32.c
979
980In Visual mode there is not always an indication whether the line break is
981selected or not. Highlight the character after the line when the line break
982is included, e.g., after "v$o".
983
984GTK: The <F10> key can't be mapped, it selects the menu. Disable that with a
985GTK setting and do select the menu when <F10> isn't mapped. (David Necas)
986
987After "Y" '[ and '] were not at start/end of the yanked text.
988
989When a telnet connection is dropped Vim preserves files and exits. While
990doing that a SIGHUP may arrive and disturbe us, thus ignore it. (Scott
Bram Moolenaar46c9c732004-12-12 11:37:09 +0000991Anderson) Also postpone SIGHUP, SIGQUIT and SIGTERM until it's safe to
992handle. Added handle_signal().
993
994When using "set laststatus=2 cmdheight=2" in the .gvimrc you may only get one
995line for the cmdline. (Christian Robinson) Invoke command_height() after the
996GUI has started up.
Bram Moolenaar293ee4d2004-12-09 21:34:53 +0000997
Bram Moolenaar1cd871b2004-12-19 22:46:22 +0000998When completing a file name on the command line backslashes are required for
999white space. Was only done for a space, not for a Tab.
1000
1001When configure could not find a terminal library, compiling continued for a
1002long time before reporting the problem. Added a configure check for tgetent()
1003being found in a library.
1004
1005When the cursor is on the first char of the last line a ":g/pat/s///" command
1006may cause the cursor to be displayed below the text.
1007
1008Win32: Editing a file with non-ASCII characters doesn't work when 'encoding'
1009is "utf-8". use _wfullpath() instead of _fullpath(). (Yu-sung Moon)
1010
1011When recovering the 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' were taken from the
1012original file instead of from the swapfile. When the file didn't exist, was
1013empty or the option was changed (e.g., with ":e ++fenc=cp123 file") it could
1014be wrong. Now store 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' in the swapfile and use
1015the values when recovering.
1016
1017":bufdo g/something/p" overwrites each last printed text line with the file
1018message for the next buffer. Temporarily clear 'shortmess' to avoid that.
1019
Bram Moolenaarb5bf5b82004-12-24 14:35:23 +00001020Win32: Cannot edit a file starting with # with --remote. Do escape % and #
1021when building the ":drop" command.
1022
Bram Moolenaar86b68352004-12-27 21:59:20 +00001023A comment or | just after a expresion-backtick argument was not recognized.
1024E.g. in :e `="foo"`"comment.
1025
Bram Moolenaar567e4de2004-12-31 21:01:02 +00001026"(" does not stop at an empty sentence (single dot and white space) while ")"
1027does. Also breaks "das" on that dot.
1028
1029When doing "yy" with the cursor on a TAB the ruler could be wrong and "k"
1030moved the cursor to another column.
1031
1032When 'commentstring' is '"%s' and there is a double quote in the line a double
1033quote before the fold marker isn't removed in the text displayed for a closed
1034fold.
1035
1036In Visual mode, when 'bin' and 'eol' set, g CTRL-G counted the last line
1037break, resulting in "selected 202 of 201 bytes".
1038
Bram Moolenaar2079a602005-01-04 21:43:22 +00001039Motif: fonts were not used for dialog components. (Marcin Dalecki)
Bram Moolenaar567e4de2004-12-31 21:01:02 +00001040
Bram Moolenaar49cd9572005-01-03 21:06:01 +00001041Motif: After using a toolbar button the keyboard focus would be on the toolbar
Bram Moolenaar2079a602005-01-04 21:43:22 +00001042(Lesstif problem). (Marcin Dalecki)
Bram Moolenaar49cd9572005-01-03 21:06:01 +00001043
Bram Moolenaar1c2fda22005-01-02 11:43:19 +00001044When using "y<C-V>`x" where mark x is in the first column, the last line was
1045not included.
1046
1047Not all test scripts work properly on MS-Windows when checked out from CVS.
1048Use a Vim command to fix all fileformats to dos before executing the tests.
1049
1050When using ":new" and the file fits in the window, lines could still be above
1051the window. Now remove empty lines instead of keeping the relative position.
1052
Bram Moolenaar3d60ec22005-01-05 22:19:46 +00001053Cmdline completion didn't work after ":let var1 var<Tab>".
1054
Bram Moolenaarb7d6e722005-01-09 21:22:45 +00001055When using ":startinsert" or ":startreplace" when already in Insert mode
1056(possible when using CTRL-R =), pressing Esc would directly restart Insert
1057mode. (Peter Winters)
1058
Bram Moolenaar31c67ef2005-01-11 21:34:41 +00001059"2daw" didn't work at end of file if the last word is a single character.
1060
Bram Moolenaar8c711452005-01-14 21:53:12 +00001061Completion for ":next a'<Tab>" put a backslash before single quote, but it was
1062not removed when editing a file. Now halve backslashes in save_patterns().
Bram Moolenaar798c5a72005-01-16 22:06:30 +00001063Also fix expanding a file name with the shell that contains "\'".
Bram Moolenaar8c711452005-01-14 21:53:12 +00001064
Bram Moolenaarb71ec9f2005-01-25 22:22:02 +00001065When doing "1,6d|put" only "fewer lines" was reported. Now a following "more
1066lines" overwrites the message.
1067
1068Configure could not handle "-Dfoo=long\ long" in the TCL config output.
1069
Bram Moolenaarb2956cd2005-01-27 14:42:53 +00001070When searching backwards, using a pattern that matches a newline and uses \zs
1071after that, didn't find a match. Could also get a hang or end up in the right
1072column in the wrong line.
1073
Bram Moolenaard438e912005-01-31 19:21:46 +00001074When $LANG is "sl" for slovenian, the slovak menu was used, since "slovak"
1075starts with "sl".
1076
1077When 'paste' is set in the GUI the Paste toolbar button doesn't work. Clear
1078'paste' when starting the GUI.
1079
Bram Moolenaarf5836682005-02-02 23:09:45 +00001080A message about a wrong viminfo line included the trailing NL.
1081
Bram Moolenaar2a8d1f82005-02-05 21:43:56 +00001082When 'paste' is set in the GUI the toolbar button doesn't work in Insert mode.
1083Use ":exe" in menu.vim to avoid duplicating the commands, instead of using a
1084mapping.
1085
1086Treat "mlterm" as an xterm-like terminal. (Seiichi Sato)
1087
1088":z.4" and ":z=4" didn't work Vi compatible.
1089
Bram Moolenaarbee0c5b2005-02-07 22:03:36 +00001090When sourcing a file, editing it and sourcing it again, it could appear twice
1091in ":scriptnames" and get a new <SID>, because the inode has changed.
1092
1093When $SHELL is set but empty the 'shell' option would be empty. Don't use an
1094empty $SHELL value.
1095
1096A command "w! file" in .vimrc or $EXINIT didn't work. Now it writes an empty
1097file.
1098
1099When a CTRL-F command at the end of the file failed, the cursor was still
1100moved to the start of the line. Now it remains where it is.
1101
1102When using ":s" or "&" to repeat the last substitute and "$" was used to put
1103the cursor in the last column, put the cursor in the last column again. This
1104is Vi compatible.
1105
Bram Moolenaar4399ef42005-02-12 14:29:27 +00001106Vim is not fully POSIX compliant but sticks with traditional Vi behavior.
1107Added a few flags in 'cpoptions' to behave the POSIX way when wanted. The
1108$VIM_POSIX environment variable is checked to set the default.
1109
1110Appending to a register didn't insert a line break like Vi. Added the '>'
1111flag to 'cpoptions' for this.
1112
1113Using "I" in a line with only blanks appended to the line. This is not Vi
1114compatible. Added the 'H' flag in 'coptions' for this.
1115
1116When joining multiple lines the cursor would be at the last joint, but Vi
1117leaves it at the position where "J" would put it. Added the 'q' flag in
1118'cpoptions' for this.
1119
1120Autoindent didn't work for ":insert" and ":append".
1121
1122Using ":append" in an empty buffer kept the dummy line. Now it's deleted to
1123be Vi compatible.
1124
1125When reading commands from a file and stdout goes to a terminal, would still
1126request the xterm version. Vim can't read it, thus the output went to the
1127shell and caused trouble there.
1128
Bram Moolenaar5313dcb2005-02-22 08:56:13 +00001129When redirecting to a register with an invalid name the redirection would
1130still be done (after an error message). Now reset "redir_reg". (Yegappan
1131Lakshmanan)
1132
1133It was not possible to use a NL after a backslash in Ex mode. This is
1134sometimes used to feed multiple lines to a shell command.
1135
Bram Moolenaar05159a02005-02-26 23:04:13 +00001136When 'cmdheight' is set to 2 in .vimrc and the GUI uses the number of lines
1137from the terminal we actually get 3 lines for the cmdline in gvim.
1138
1139When setting $HOME allocated memory would leak.
1140
Bram Moolenaar19a09a12005-03-04 23:39:37 +00001141Win32: bold characters may sometimes write in another character cell. Use
1142unicodepdy[] as for UTF-8. (Taro Muraoka)
1143
1144":w fname" didn't work for files with 'buftype' set to "nofile".
1145
Bram Moolenaare2ac10d2005-03-07 23:26:06 +00001146The method used to locate user commands for completion differed from when they
1147are executed. Abiguous command names were not completed properly.
1148
Bram Moolenaar9062a9d2005-03-08 22:46:26 +00001149Incremental search may cause a crash when there is a custom statusline that
1150indirectly invokes ":normal".
1151
1152Diff mode failed when $DIFF_OPTIONS was set in the environment. Unset it
1153before invoking "diff".
1154
Bram Moolenaar4ad237d2005-03-11 22:49:40 +00001155Completion didn't work after ":argdo", ":windo" and ":bufdo". Also for ":set
1156&l:opt" and ":set &g:opt". (Peter Winters)
1157
1158When setting 'ttymouse' to "dec" in an xterm that supports the DEC mouse
1159locator it doesn't work. Now switch off the mouse before selecting another
1160mouse model.
1161
Bram Moolenaarfb269802005-03-15 22:46:30 +00001162When the CursorHold event is triggered and the commands peek for typed
1163characters the typeahead buffer may be messed up, e.g., when a mouse-up event
1164is received. Avoid invoking the autocommands from the function waiting for a
1165character, let it put K_CURSORHOLD in the input buffer.
1166
1167Removed the "COUNT" flag from ":argadd", to avoid ":argadd 1*" to be used like
Bram Moolenaarc0761132005-03-18 20:30:32 +00001168":1argadd *". Same for ":argdelete" and ":argedit".
Bram Moolenaarfb269802005-03-15 22:46:30 +00001169
1170Avoid that $LANG is used for the menus when LC_MESSAGES is "en_US".
1171
Bram Moolenaarc0761132005-03-18 20:30:32 +00001172Added backslashes before dashes in the vim.1 manual page to make the appear as
1173real dashes. (Pierr Habouzit)
1174
1175Where "gq" left the cursor depended on the value of 'formatprg'. Now "gq"
1176always leaves the cursor at the last line of the formatted text.
1177
1178When editing a compressed file, such as "changelog.Debian.gz" file, filetype
1179detection may try to check the contents of the file while it's still
1180compressed. Skip setting 'filetype' for compressed files until they have been
1181decompressed. Required for patterns that end in a "*".
1182
1183Starting with an argument "+cmd" or "-S script" causes the cursor the be moved
1184to the first line. That breaks a BufReadPost autocommand that uses g`".
1185Don't move the cursor if it's somewhere past the first line.
1186
1187"gg=G" while 'modifiable' is off was uninterruptable.
1188
Bram Moolenaar60c78922005-03-20 22:40:14 +00001189When 'encoding' is "sjis" inserting CTRL-V u d800 a few times causes a crash.
1190Don't insert a DBCS character with a NUL second byte.
1191
Bram Moolenaar2641f772005-03-25 21:58:17 +00001192In Insert mode CTRL-O <Home> didn't move the cursor. Made "ins_at_eol" global
1193and reset it in nv_home().
1194
Bram Moolenaarb982ca52005-03-28 21:02:15 +00001195Wildcard expansion failed: ":w /tmp/$$.`echo test`". Don't put quotes around
1196spaces inside backticks.
1197
Bram Moolenaar13fcaaf2005-04-15 21:13:42 +00001198After this sequence of commands: Y V p gv: the wrong line is selected. Now
1199let "gv" select the text that was put, since the original text is deleted.
1200This should be the most useful thing to do.
1201
1202":sleep 100u" sleeps for 100 seconds, not 100 usec as one might expect. Give
1203an error message when the argument isn't recognized.
1204
1205In gui_mch_draw_string() in gui_w32.c "unibuflen" wasn't static, resulting in
1206reallocating the buffer every time. (Alexei Alexandrov)
1207
Bram Moolenaar0e21a3f2005-04-17 20:28:32 +00001208When using a Python "atexit" function it was not invoked when Vim exits. Now
1209call Py_Finalize() for that. (Ugo Di Girolamo)
Bram Moolenaar9ba0eb82005-06-13 22:28:56 +00001210This breaks the thread stuff though, fixed by Ugo.
Bram Moolenaar0e21a3f2005-04-17 20:28:32 +00001211
Bram Moolenaardba8a912005-04-24 22:08:39 +00001212GTK GUI: using a .vimrc with "set cmdheight=2 lines=43" and ":split" right
1213after startup, the window layout is messed up. (Michael Schaap) Added
1214win_new_shellsize() call in gui_init() to fix the topframe size.
1215
1216Trick to get ...MOUSE_NM not used when there are vertical splits. Now pass
1217column -1 for the left most window and add MOUSE_COLOFF for others. Limits
1218mouse column to 10000.
1219
1220searchpair() may hang when the end pattern has "\zs" at the end. Check that
1221we find the same position again and advance one character.
1222
1223When in diff mode and making a change that causes the "changed" highlighting
1224to disappear or reappear, it was still highlighted in another window.
1225
Bram Moolenaar34cdc3e2005-05-18 22:24:46 +00001226When a ":next" command fails because the user selects "Abort" at the ATTENTION
1227prompt the argument index was advanced anyway.
1228
1229When "~" is in 'iskeyword' the "gd" doesn't work, it's used for the previous
1230substitute pattern. Put "\V" in the pattern to avoid that.
1231
Bram Moolenaar555b2802005-05-19 21:08:39 +00001232Use of sprintf() sometimes didn't check properly for buffer overflow. Also
1233when using smsg(). Included code for snprintf() to avoid having to do size
1234checks where invoking them
1235
Bram Moolenaarf4630b62005-05-20 21:31:17 +00001236":help \=<Tab>" didn't find "sub-replace-\=". Wild menu for help tags didn't
1237show backslashes. ":he :s\=" didn't work.
1238
1239When reading an errorfile "~/" in a file name was not expanded.
1240
1241GTK GUI: When adding a scrollbar (e.g. when using ":vsplit") in a script or
1242removing it the window size may change. GTK sends us resize events when we
1243change the window size ourselves, but they may come at an unexpected moment.
1244Peek for a character to get any window resize events and fix 'columns' and
1245'lines' to undo this.
1246
Bram Moolenaar67fe1a12005-05-22 22:12:58 +00001247After deleting files from the argument list a session file generated with
1248":mksession" may contain invalid ":next" commands.
1249
1250When 'shortmess' is empty and 'keymap' set to accents, in Insert mode CTRL-N
1251may cause the hit-enter prompt. Typing 'a then didn't result in the accented
1252character. Put the character typed at the prompt back in the typeahead buffer
1253so that mapping is done in the right mode.
1254
Bram Moolenaarb2ec3072005-06-17 22:02:20 +00001255setbufvar() and setwinvar() did not give error messages.
1256
1257It was possible to set a variable with an illegal name, e.g. with setbufvar().
Bram Moolenaard857f0e2005-06-21 22:37:39 +00001258It was possible to define a function with illegal name, e.t. ":func F{-1}()"
1259
1260CTRL-W F and "gf" didn't use the same method to get the file name.
Bram Moolenaarb2ec3072005-06-17 22:02:20 +00001261
Bram Moolenaar42eeac32005-06-29 22:40:58 +00001262When reporting a conversion error the line number of the last error could be
1263given. Now report the first encountered error.
1264
1265When using ":e ++enc=name file" and iconv() was used for conversion an error
1266caused a fallback to no conversion. Now replace a character with '?' and
1267continue.
1268
Bram Moolenaar51bab742005-07-08 22:31:03 +00001269When opening a new buffer the local value of 'bomb' was not initialized from
1270the global value.
1271
Bram Moolenaare759a7a2005-07-12 22:50:18 +00001272Win32: When using the "Edit with Vim" entry the file name was limited to about
1273200 characters.
1274
Bram Moolenaar342337a2005-07-21 21:11:17 +00001275When using command line completion for ":e *foo" and the file "+foo" exists
1276the resulting command ":e +foo" doesn't work. Now insert a backslash: ":e
1277\+foo".
1278
Bram Moolenaar87e25fd2005-07-27 21:13:01 +00001279When the translation of "-- More --" was not 10 characters long the following
1280message would be in the wrong position.
1281
1282At the more-prompt the last character in the last line wasn't drawn.
1283
1284When deleting non-existing text while 'virtualedit' is set the '[ and '] marks
1285were not set.
1286
Bram Moolenaar0be6e642005-08-04 21:32:22 +00001287Win32: Could not use "**/" in 'path', it had to be "**\".
1288
Bram Moolenaarae5bce12005-08-15 21:41:48 +00001289The search pattern "\n" did not match at the end of the last line.
1290
1291Searching for a pattern backwards, starting on the NUL at the end of the line
1292and 'encoding' is "utf-8" would match the pattern just before it incorrectly.
1293Affected searchpair('/\*', '', '\*/').
1294
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001295 vim:tw=78:ts=8:ft=help:norl:
