89INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES *incompatible-6*
90
91These changes are incompatible with previous releases. Check this list if you
92run into a problem when upgrading from Vim 5.x to 6.0
93
94
95Cursor position in Visual mode *curpos-visual*
96------------------------------
97
98When going from one window to another window on the same buffer while in
99Visual mode, the cursor position of the other window is adjusted to keep the
100same Visual area. This can be used to set the start of the Visual area in one
101window and the end in another. In vim 5.x the cursor position of the other
102window would be used, which could be anywhere and was not very useful.
103
104
105Substitute command Vi compatible *substitute-CR*
106--------------------------------
107
108The substitute string (the "to" part of the substitute command) has been made
109Vi compatible. Previously a CTRL-V had a special meaning and could be used to
110prevent a <CR> to insert a line break. This made it impossible to insert a
111CTRL-V before a line break. Now a backslash is used to prevent a <CR> to
112cause a line break. Since the number of backslashes is halved, it is still
113possible to insert a line break at the end of the line. This now works just
114like Vi, but it's not compatible with Vim versions before 6.0.
115
116When a ":s" command doesn't make any substitutions, it no longer sets the '[
117and '] marks. This is not related to Vi, since it doesn't have these marks.
118
119
120Global option values introduced *new-global-values*
121-------------------------------
122
123There are now global values for options which are local to a buffer or window.
124Previously the local options were copied from one buffer to another. When
125editing another file this could cause option values from a modeline to be used
126for the wrong file. Now the global values are used when entering a buffer
127that has not been used before. Also, when editing another buffer in a window,
128the local window options are reset to their global values. The ":set" command
129sets both the local and global values, this is still compatible. But a
130modeline only sets the local value, this is not backwards compatible.
131
132":let &opt = val" now sets the local and global values, like ":set". New
133commands have been added to set the global or local value:
134 :let &opt = val like ":set"
135 :let &g:opt = val like ":setglobal"
136 :let &l:opt = val like ":setlocal"
137
138
139'fileencoding' changed *fileencoding-changed*
140----------------------
141
142'fileencoding' was used in Vim 5.x to set the encoding used inside all of Vim.
143This was a bit strange, because it was local to a buffer and worked for all
144buffers. It could never be different between buffers, because it changed the
145way text in all buffers was interpreted.
146It is now used for the encoding of the file related to the buffer. If you
147still set 'fileencoding' it is likely to be overwritten by the detected
148encoding from 'fileencodings', thus it is "mostly harmless".
149The old FileEncoding autocommand now does the same as the new EncodingChanged
150event.
151
152
153Digraphs changed *digraphs-changed*
154----------------
155
156The default digraphs now correspond to RFC1345. This is very different from
157what was used in Vim 5.x. |digraphs|
158
159
160Filetype detection changed *filetypedetect-changed*
161--------------------------
162
163The filetype detection previously was using the "filetype" autocommand group.
164This caused confusion with the FileType event name (case is ignored). The
165group is now called "filetypedetect". It still works, but if the "filetype"
166group is used the autocommands will not be removed by ":filetype off".
167 The support for 'runtimepath' has made the "myfiletypefile" and
168"mysyntaxfile" mechanism obsolete. They are still used for backwards
169compatibility.
170
171The connection between the FileType event and setting the 'syntax' option was
172previously in the "syntax" autocommand group. That caused confusion with the
173Syntax event name. The group is now called "syntaxset".
174
175The distributed syntax files no longer contain "syntax clear". That makes it
176possible to include one in the other without tricks. The syntax is now
177cleared when the 'syntax' option is set (by an autocommand added from
178synload.vim). This makes the syntax cleared when the value of 'syntax' does
179not correspond to a syntax file. Previously the existing highlighting was
180kept.
181
182
183Unlisted buffers introduced *new-unlisted-buffers*
184---------------------------
185
186There is now a difference between buffers which don't appear in the buffer
187list and buffers which are really not in the buffer list. Commands like
188":ls", ":bnext", ":blast" and the Buffers menu will skip buffers not in the
189buffer list. |unlisted-buffer|
190The 'buflisted' option can be used to make a buffer appear in the buffer list
191or not.
192
193Several commands that previously added a buffer to the buffer list now create
194an unlisted buffer. This means that a ":bnext" and ":ball" will not find these
195files until they have actually been edited. For example, buffers used for the
196alternative file by ":write file" and ":read file".
197 Other commands previously completely deleted a buffer and now only remove
198the buffer from the buffer list. Commands relying on a buffer not to be
199present might fail. For example, a ":bdelete" command in an autocommand that
200relied on something following to fail (was used in the automatic tests).
201|:bwipeout| can be used for the old meaning of ":bdelete".
202
203The BufDelete autocommand event is now triggered when a buffer is removed from
204the buffer list. The BufCreate event is only triggered when a buffer is
205created that is added to the buffer list, or when an existing buffer is added
206to the buffer list. BufAdd is a new name for BufCreate.
207The new BufNew event is for creating any buffer and BufWipeout for really
208deleting a buffer.
209
210When doing Insert mode completion, only buffers in the buffer list are
211scanned. Added the 'U' flag to 'complete' to do completion from unlisted
212buffers.
213
214Unlisted buffers are not stored in a viminfo file.
215
216
217CTRL-U in Command-line mode changed *CTRL-U-changed*
218-----------------------------------
219
220Using CTRL-U when editing the command line cleared the whole line. Most
221shells only delete the characters before the cursor. Made it work like that.
222(Steve Wall)
223
224You can get the old behavior with CTRL-E CTRL-U: >
225 :cnoremap <C-U> <C-E><C-U>
226
227
228Ctags gone *ctags-gone*
229----------
230
231Ctags is no longer part of the Vim distribution. It's now a grown-up program
232by itself, it deserves to be distributed separately.
233Ctags can be found here: http://ctags.sf.net/.
234
235
236Documentation reorganized *documentation-6*
237-------------------------
238
239The documentation has been reorganized, an item may not be where you found it
240in Vim 5.x.
241- The user manual was added, some items have been moved to it from the
242 reference manual.
243- The quick reference is now in a separate file (so that it can be printed).
244
245The examples in the documentation were previously marked with a ">" in the
246first column. This made it difficult to copy/paste them. There is now a
247single ">" before the example and it ends at a "<" or a non-blank in the first
248column. This also looks better without highlighting.
249
250'helpfile' is no longer used to find the help tags file. This allows a user
251to add its own help files (e.g., for plugins).
252
253
254Modeless selection and clipboard *modeless-and-clipboard*
255--------------------------------
256
257The modeless selection is used to select text when Visual mode can't be used,
258for example when editing the command line or at the more prompt.
259In Vim 5.x the modeless selection was always used. On MS-Windows this caused
260the clipboard to be overwritten, with no way to avoid that. The modeless
261selection now obeys the 'a' and 'A' flags in 'guioptions' and "autoselect" and
262"autoselectml" in 'clipboard'. By default there is no automatic copy on
263MS-Windows. Use the |c_CTRL-Y| command to manually copy the selection.
264
265To get the old behavior back, do this: >
266
267 :set clipboard^=autoselectml guioptions+=A
268
269
270Small incompatibilities *incomp-small-6*
271-----------------------
272
273'backupdir', 'cdpath', 'directory', 'equalprg', 'errorfile', 'formatprg',
274'grepprg', 'helpfile', 'makeef', 'makeprg', 'keywordprg', 'cscopeprg',
275'viminfo' and 'runtimepath' can no longer be set from a modeline, for better
276security.
277
278Removed '_' from the 'breakat' default: It's commonly used in keywords.
279
280The default for 'mousehide' is on, because this works well for most people.
281
282The Amiga binary is now always compiled with "big" features. The "big" binary
283archive no longer exists.
284
285The items "[RO]", "[+]", "[help]", "[Preview]" and "[filetype]" in
286'statusline' no longer have a leading space.
287
288Non-Unix systems: When expanding wildcards for the Vim arguments, don't use
289'suffixes'. It now works as if the shell had expanded the arguments.
290
291The 'lisp', 'smartindent' and 'cindent' options are not switched off when
292'paste' is set. The auto-indenting is disabled when 'paste' is set, but
293manual indenting with "=" still works.
294
295When formatting with "=" uses 'cindent' or 'indentexpr' indenting, and there
296is no change in indent, this is not counted as a change ('modified' isn't set
297and there is nothing to undo).
298
299Report 'modified' as changed when 'fileencoding' or 'fileformat' was set.
300Thus it reflects the possibility to abandon the buffer without losing changes.
301
302The "Save As" menu entry now edits the saved file. Most people expect it to
303work like this.
304
305A buffer for a directory is no longer added to the Buffers menu.
306
307Renamed <Return> to <Enter>, since that's what it's called on most keyboards.
308Thus it's now the hit-enter prompt instead of the hit-return prompt.
309Can map <Enter> just like <CR> or <Return>.
310
311The default for the 'viminfo' option is now '20,"50,h when 'compatible' isn't
312set. Most people will want to use it, including beginners, but it required
313setting the option, which isn't that easy.
314
315After using ":colder" the newer error lists are overwritten. This makes it
316possible to use ":grep" to browse in a tree-like way. Must use ":cnewer 99"
317to get the old behavior.
318
319The patterns in 'errorformat' would sometimes ignore case (MS-Windows) and
320sometimes not (Unix). Now case is always ignored. Add "\C" to the pattern to
321match case.
322
323The 16 bit MS-DOS version is now compiled without the +listcmds feature
324(buffer list manipulation commands). They are not often needed and this
325executable needs to be smaller.
326
327'sessionoptions' now includes "curdir" by default. This means that restoring
328a session will result in the current directory being restored, instead of
329going to the directory where the session file is located.
330
331A session deleted all buffers, deleting all marks. Now keep the buffer list,
332it shouldn't hurt for some existing buffers to remain present.
333When the argument list is empty ":argdel *" caused an error message.
334
335No longer put the search pattern from a tag jump in the history.
336
337Use "SpecialKey" highlighting for unprintable characters instead of "NonText".
338The idea is that unprintable text or any text that's displayed differently
339from the characters in the file is using "SpecialKey", and "NonText" is used
340for text that doesn't really exist in the file.
341
342Motif now uses the system default colors for the menu and scrollbar. Used to
343be grey. It's still possible to set the colors with ":highlight" commands and
344resources.
345
346Formatting text with "gq" breaks a paragraph at a non-empty blank line.
347Previously the line would be removed, which wasn't very useful.
348
349":normal" does no longer hang when the argument ends in half a command.
350Previously Vim would wait for more characters to be typed, without updating
351the screen. Now it pretends an <Esc> was typed.
352
353Bitmaps for the toolbar are no longer searched for in "$VIM/bitmaps" but in
354the "bitmaps" directories in 'runtimepath'.
355
356Now use the Cmdline-mode menus for the hit-enter prompt instead of the Normal
357mode menus. This generally works better and allows using the "Copy" menu to
358produce CTRL-Y to copy the modeless selection.
359
360Moved the font selection from the Window to the Edit menu, together with the
361other settings.
362
363The default values for 'isfname' include more characters to make "gf" work
364better.
365
366Changed the license for the documentation to the Open Publication License.
367This seemed fair, considering the inclusion of parts of the Vim book, which is
368also published under the OPL. The downside is that we can't force someone who
369would sell copies of the manual to contribute to Uganda.
370
371After "ayy don't let ""yy or :let @" = val overwrite the "a register.
372Use the unnamed register instead.
373
374MSDOS: A pattern "*.*" previously also matched a file name without a dot.
375This was inconsistent with other versions.
376
377In Insert mode, CTRL-O CTRL-\ CTRL-N {cmd} remains in Normal mode. Previously
378it would go back to Insert mode, thus confusing the meaning of CTRL-\ CTRL-N,
379which is supposed to take us to Normal mode (especially in ":amenu").
380
381Allow using ":" commands after an operator. Could be used to implement a new
382movement command. Thus it no longer aborts a pending operator.
383
384For the Amiga the "-d {device}" argument was possible. When compiled with the
385diff feature, this no longer works. Use "-dev {device}" instead. |-dev|
386
387Made the default mappings for <S-Insert> in Insert mode insert the text
388literally, avoids that special characters like BS cause side effects.
389
390Using ":confirm" applied to the rest of the line. Now it applies only to the
391command right after it. Thus ":confirm if x | edit | endif" no longer works,
392use ":if x | confirm edit | endif". This was the original intention, that it
393worked differently was a bug.
394
395==============================================================================
396NEW FEATURES *new-6*
397
398Folding *new-folding*
399-------
400
401Vim can now display a buffer with text folded. This allows overviewing the
402structure of a file quickly. It is also possible to yank, delete and put
403folded text, for example to move a function to another position.
404
405There is a whole bunch of new commands and options related to folding.
406See |folding|.
407
408
409Vertically split windows *new-vertsplit*
410------------------------
411
412Windows can also be split vertically. This makes it possible to have windows
413side by side. One nice use for this is to compare two similar files (see
414|new-diff-mode|). The 'scrollbind' option can be used to synchronize
415scrolling.
416
417A vertical split can be created with the commands:
418 :vsplit or CTRL-W v or CTRL-W CTRL-V |:vsplit|
419 :vnew |:vnew|
420 :vertical {cmd} |:vertical|
421The last one is a modifier, which has a meaning for any command that splits a
422window. For example: >
423 :vertical stag main
424Will vertically split the window and jump to the tag "main" in the new window.
425
426Moving from window to window horizontally can be done with the |CTRL-W_h| and
427|CTRL-W_l| commands. The |CTRL-W_k| and |CTRL-W_j| commands have been changed
428to jump to the window above or below the cursor position.
429
430The vertical and horizontal splits can be mixed as you like. Resizing windows
431is easy when using the mouse, just position the pointer on a status line or
432vertical separator and drag it. In the GUI a special mouse pointer shape
433indicates where you can drag a status or separator line.
434
435To resize vertically split windows use the |CTRL-W_<| and |CTRL-W_>| commands.
436To make a window the maximum width use the CTRL-W | command |CTRL-W_bar|.
437
438To force a new window to use the full width or height of the Vim window,
439these two modifiers are available:
440 :topleft {cmd} New window appears at the top with full
441 width or at the left with full height.
442 :botright {cmd} New window appears at the bottom with full
443 width or at the right with full height.
444This can be combined with ":vertical" to force a vertical split: >
445 :vert bot dsplit DEBUG
446This will open a window at the far right, occupying the full height of the Vim
447window, with the cursor on the first definition of "DEBUG".
448The help window is opened at the top, like ":topleft" was used, if the current
449window is fewer than 80 characters wide.
450
451A few options can be used to set the preferences for vertically split windows.
Bram Moolenaar3d1cde82020-08-15 18:55:18 +0200452They work similarly to their existing horizontal equivalents:
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000453 horizontal vertical ~
454 'splitbelow' 'splitright'
455 'winheight' 'winwidth'
456 'winminheight' 'winminwidth'
457It's possible to set 'winminwidth' to zero, so that temporarily unused windows
458hardly take up space without closing them.
459
460The new 'eadirection' option tells where 'equalalways' applies:
461 :set eadirection=both both directions
462 :set eadirection=ver equalize window heights
463 :set eadirection=hor equalize windows widths
464This can be used to avoid changing window sizes when you want to keep them.
465
466Since windows can become quite narrow with vertical splits, text lines will
467often not fit. The 'sidescrolloff' has been added to keep some context left
468and right of the cursor. The 'listchars' option has been extended with the
469"precedes" item, to show a "<" for example, when there is text left off the
470screen. (Utz-Uwe Haus)
471
472"-O" command line argument: Like "-o" but split windows vertically. (Scott
473Urban)
474
475Added commands to move the current window to the very top (CTRL-W K), bottom
476(CTRL-W J), left (CTRL-W H) and right (CTRL-W L). In the new position the
477window uses the full width/height of the screen.
478
479When there is not enough room in the status line for both the file name and
480the ruler, use up to half the width for the ruler. Useful for narrow windows.
481
482
483Diff mode *new-diff-mode*
484---------
485
486In diff mode Vim shows the differences between two, three or four files.
487Folding is used to hide the parts of the file that are equal.
488Highlighting is used to show deleted and changed lines.
489See |diff-mode|.
490
491An easy way to start in diff mode is to start Vim as "vimdiff file1 file2".
492Added the vimdiff manpage.
493
494In a running Vim the |:diffsplit| command starts diff mode for the current
495file and another file. The |:diffpatch| command starts diff mode using the
496current file and a patch file. The |:diffthis| command starts diff mode for
497the current window.
498
499Differences can be removed with the |:diffget| and |:diffput| commands.
500
501- The 'diff' option switches diff mode on in a window.
502- The |:diffupdate| command refreshes the diffs.
503- The 'diffopt' option changes how diffs are displayed.
504- The 'diffexpr' option can be set how a diff is to be created.
505- The 'patchexpr' option can be set how patch is applied to a file.
506- Added the "diff" folding method. When opening a window for diff-mode, set
507 'foldlevel' to zero and 'foldenable' on, to close the folds.
508- Added the DiffAdd, DiffChange, DiffDelete and DiffText highlight groups to
509 specify the highlighting for differences. The defaults are ugly...
510- Unix: make a vimdiff symbolic link for "make install".
511- Removed the now obsolete "vimdiff.vim" script from the distribution.
512- Added the "[c" and "]c" commands to move to the next/previous change in diff
513 mode.
514
515
516Easy Vim: click-and-type *new-evim*
517------------------------
518
519eVim stands for "Easy Vim". This is a separate program, but can also be
520started as "vim -y".
521
522This starts Vim with 'insertmode' set to allow click-and-type editing. The
523$VIMRUNTIME/evim.vim script is used to add mappings and set options to be able
524to do most things like Notepad. This is only for people who can't stand two
525modes.
526
527eView does the same but in readonly mode.
528
529In the GUI a CTRL-C now only interrupts when busy with something, not when
530waiting for a character. Allows using CTRL-C to copy text to the clipboard.
531
532
533User manual *new-user-manual*
534-----------
535
536The user manual has been added. It is organised around editing tasks. It
537reads like a book, from start to end. It should allow beginners to start
538learning Vim. It helps everybody to learn using the most useful Vim features.
539It is much easier to read than the reference manual, but omits details. See
540|user-manual|.
541
542The user manual includes parts of the Vim book by Steve Oualline |frombook|.
543It is published under the OPL |manual-copyright|.
544
545When syntax highlighting is not enabled, the characters in the help file which
546mark examples ('>' and '<') and header lines ('~') are replaced with a space.
547
548When closing the help window, the window layout is restored from before
549opening it, if the window layout didn't change since then.
550When opening the help window, put it at the top of the Vim window if the
551current window is fewer than 80 characters and not full width.
552
553
554Flexible indenting *new-indent-flex*
555------------------
556
557Automatic indenting is now possible for any language. It works with a Vim
558script, which makes it very flexible to compute the indent.
559
560The ":filetype indent on" command enables using the provided indent scripts.
561This is explained in the user manual: |30.3|.
562
563The 'indentexpr' option is evaluated to get the indent for a line. The
564'indentkeys' option tells when to trigger re-indenting. Normally these
565options are set from an indent script. Like Syntax files, indent scripts will
566be created and maintained by many people.
567
568
569Extended search patterns *new-searchpat*
570------------------------
571
572Added the possibility to match more than one line with a pattern. (partly by
573Loic Grenie)
574New items in a search pattern for multi-line matches:
575\n match end-of-line, also in []
576\_[] match characters in range and end-of-line
577\_x match character class and end-of-line
578\_. match any character or end-of-line
579\_^ match start-of-line, can be used anywhere in the regexp
580\_$ match end-of-line, can be used anywhere in the regexp
581
582Various other new items in search patterns:
583\c ignore case for the whole pattern
584\C match case for the whole pattern
585\m magic on for the following
586\M magic off for the following
587\v make following characters "very magic"
588\V make following characters "very nomagic"
589
590\@! don't match atom before this.
591 Example: "foo\(bar\)\@!" matches "foo " but not "foobar".
592\@= match atom, resulting in zero-width match
593 Example: "foo\(bar\)\@=" matches "foo" in "foobar".
594\@<! don't match preceding atom before the current position
595\@<= match preceding atom before the current position
596\@> match preceding atom as a subexpression
597
598\& match only when branch before and after it match
599
600\%[] optionally match a list of atoms; "end\%[if]" matches "end",
601 "endi" and "endif"
602\%(\) like \(\), but without creating a back-reference; there can be
603 any number of these, overcomes the limit of nine \( \) pairs
604\%^ match start-of-file (Chase Tingley)
605\%$ match end-of-file (Chase Tingley)
606\%# Match with the cursor position. (Chase Tingley)
607\? Just like "\=" but can't be used in a "?" command.
608
609\%23l match in line 23
610\%<23l match before line 23
611\%>23l match after line 23
612\%23c, \%<23c, \%>23c match in/before/after column 23
613\%23v, \%<23v, \%>23v match in/before/after virtual column 23
614
615
616For syntax items:
617\z(...\) external reference match set (in region start pattern)
618\z1 - \z9 external reference match use (in region skip or end pattern)
619 (Scott Bigham)
620
621\zs use position as start of match
622\ze use position as end of match
623
624Removed limit of matching only up to 32767 times with *, \+, etc.
625
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200626Added support to match multibyte characters. (partly by Muraoka Taro)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000627Made "\<" and "\>" work for UTF-8. (Muraoka Taro)
628
629
630UTF-8 support *new-utf-8*
631-------------
632
633Vim can now edit files in UTF-8 encoding. Up to 31 bit characters can be
634used, but only 16 bit characters are displayed. Up to two combining
635characters are supported, they overprint the preceding character.
636Double-wide characters are also supported. See |UTF-8|.
637
638UCS-2, UCS-4 and UTF-16 encodings are supported too, they are converted to
639UTF-8 internally. There is also support for editing Unicode files in a Latin1
640environment. Other encodings are converted with iconv() or an external
641converter specified with 'charconvert'.
642
643Many new items for Multi-byte support:
644- Added 'encoding' option: specifies character encoding used inside Vim. It
645 can be any 8-bit encoding, some double-byte encodings or Unicode.
646 It is initialized from the environment when a supported value is found.
647- Added 'fileencoding' and 'fileencodings': specify character coding in a
648 file, similar to 'fileformat' and 'fileformats'.
649 When 'encoding' is "utf-8" and 'fileencodings' is "utf-8,latin1" this will
650 automatically switch to latin1 if a file does not contain valid UTF-8.
651- Added 'bomb' option and detection of a BOM at the start of a file. Can be
652 used with "ucs-bom" in 'fileencodings' to automatically detect a Unicode
653 file if it starts with a BOM. Especially useful on MS-Windows (NT and
654 2000), which uses ucs-2le files with a BOM (e.g., when exporting the
655 registry).
656- Added the 'termencoding' option: Specifies the encoding used for the
657 terminal. Useful to put Vim in utf-8 mode while in a non-Unicode locale: >
658 :let &termencoding = &encoding
659 :set encoding=utf-8
660- When 'viminfo' contains the 'c' flag, the viminfo file is converted from the
661 'encoding' it was written with to the current 'encoding'.
662- Added ":scriptencoding" command: convert lines in a sourced script to
663 'encoding'. Useful for menu files.
664- Added 'guifontwide' to specify a font for double-wide characters.
665- Added Korean support for character class detection. Also fix cls() in
666 search.c. (Chong-Dae Park)
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200667- Win32: Typing multibyte characters without IME. (Alexander Smishlajev)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000668- Win32 with Mingw: compile with iconv library. (Ron Aaron)
669- Win32 with MSVC: dynamically load iconv.dll library. (Muraoka Taro)
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200670- Make it possible to build a version with multibyte and iconv support with
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000671 Borland 5.5. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
672- Added 'delcombine' option: Delete combining character separately. (Ron
673 Aaron)
674- The "xfontset" feature isn't required for "xim". These are now two
675 independent features.
676- XIM: enable XIM when typing a language character (Insert mode, Search
677 pattern, "f" or "r" command). Disable XIM when typing a Normal mode
678 command.
679- When the XIM is active, show "XIM" in the 'showmode' message. (Nam SungHyun)
680- Support "CursorIM" for XIM. (Nam SungHyun)
681- Added 'm' flag to 'formatoptions': When wrapping words, allow splitting at
682 each multibyte character, not only at a space.
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200683- Made ":syntax keyword" work with multibyte characters.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000684- Added support for Unicode upper/lowercase flipping and comparing. (based on
685 patch by Raphael Finkel)
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200686 Let "~" on multibyte characters that have a third case ("title case")
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000687 switch between the three cases. (Raphael Finkel)
688
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200689Allow defining digraphs for multibyte characters.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000690Added RFC1345 digraphs for Unicode.
691Most Normal mode commands that accept a character argument, like "r", "t" and
692"f" now accept a digraph. The 'D' flag in 'cpoptions' disables this to remain
693Vi compatible.
694
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200695Added Language mapping and 'keymap' to be able to type multibyte characters:
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000696- Added the ":lmap" command and friends: Define mappings that are used when
697 typing characters in the language of the text. Also for "r", "t", etc. In
698 Insert and Command-line mode CTRL-^ switches the use of the mappings on/off.
699 CTRL-^ also toggles the use of an input method when no language mappings are
700 present. Allows switching the IM back on halfway typing.
701- "<char-123>" argument to ":map", allows to specify the decimal, octal or
702 hexadecimal value of a character.
703- Implemented the 'keymap' option: Load a keymap file. Uses ":lnoremap" to
704 define mappings for the keymap. The new ":loadkeymap" command is used in
705 the keymap file.
706- Added 'k' flag in 'statusline': Value of "b:keymap_name" or 'keymap' when
707 it's being used. Uses "<lang>" when no keymap is loaded and ":lmap"s are
708 active. Show this text in the default statusline too.
709- Added the 'iminsert' and 'imsearch' options: Specify use of langmap mappings
710 and Input Method with an option. (Muraoka Taro)
711 Added 'imcmdline' option: When set the input method is always enabled when
712 starting to edit a command line. Useful for a XIM that uses dead keys to
713 type accented characters.
714 Added 'imactivatekey' option to better control XIM. (Muraoka Taro)
715- When typing a mapping that's not finished yet, display the last character
716 under the cursor in Insert mode and Command-line mode. Looks good for dead
717 characters.
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200718- Made the 'langmap' option recognize multibyte characters. But mapping only
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000719 works for 8-bit characters. Helps when using UTF-8.
720- Use a different cursor for when ":lmap" mappings are active. Can specify
721 two highlight groups for an item in 'guicursor'. By default "lCursor" and
722 "Cursor" are equal, the user must set a color he likes.
723 Use the cursor color for hangul input as well. (Sung-Hyun Nam)
724- Show "(lang)" for 'showmode' when language mapping is enabled.
725- UTF-8: Made "r" work with a ":lmap" that includes a composing character.
726 Also works for "f", which now works to find a character that includes a
727 composing character.
728
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +0200729Other multibyte character additions:
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000730- Support double-byte single-width characters for euc-jp: Characters starting
731 with 0x8E. Added ScreenLines2[] to store the second byte.
732
733
734Multi-language support *new-multi-lang*
735----------------------
736
737The messages used in Vim can be translated. Several translations are
738available. This uses the gettext mechanism. It allows adding a translation
739without recompiling Vim. |multi-lang| (partly by Marcin Dalecki)
740
741The translation files are in the src/po directory. The src/po/README.txt file
742explains a few things about doing a translation.
743
744Menu translations are available as well. This uses the new |:menutranslate|
745command. The translations are found in the runtime directory "lang". This
746allows a user to add a translation.
747
748Added |:language| command to set the language (locale) for messages, time and
749character type. This allows switching languages in Vim without changing the
750locale outside of Vim.
751
752Made it possible to have vimtutor use different languages. (Eduardo Fernandez)
753Spanish (Eduardo Fernandez), Italian (Antonio Colombo), Japanese (Yasuhiro
754Matsumoto) and French (Adrien Beau) translations are included.
755Added "vimtutor.bat": script to start Vim on a copy of the tutor file for
756MS-Windows. (Dan Sharp)
757
758- Added v:lang variable to be able to get current language setting.
759 (Marcin Dalecki) Also v:lc_time and v:ctype.
760- Make it possible to translate the dialogs used by the menus. Uses global
761 "menutrans_" variables. ":menutrans clear" deletes them.
762- removed "broken locale" (Marcin Dalecki).
763- Don't use color names in icons, use RGB values. The names could be
764 translated.
765- Win32: Added global IME support (Muraoka)
766- Win32: Added dynamic loading of IME support.
767- ":messages" prints a message about who maintains the messages or the
768 translations. Useful to find out where to make a remark about a wrong
769 translation.
770- --disable-nls argument for configure: Disable use of gettext(). (Sung-Hyun
771 Nam)
772- Added NLS support for Win32 with the MingW compiler. (Eduardo Fernandez)
773- When available, call bind_textdomain_codeset() to have gettext() translate
774 messages to 'encoding'. This requires GNU gettext 0.10.36 or later.
775- Added gettext support for Win32. This means messages will be translated
776 when the locale is set and libintl.dll can be found. (Muraoka Taro)
777 Also made it work with MingW compiler. (Eduardo Fernandez)
778 Detect the language and set $LANG to get the appropriate translated messages
779 (if supported). Also use $LANG to select a language, v:lang is a very
780 different kind of name.
781- Made gvimext.dll use translated messages, if possible. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
782
783
784Plugin support *new-plugins*
785--------------
786
787To make it really easy to load a Vim script when starting Vim, the "plugin"
788runtime directory can be used. All "*.vim" files in it will be automatically
789loaded. For Unix, the directory "~/.vim/plugin" is used by default. The
790'runtimepath' option can be set to look in other directories for plugins.
791|load-plugins| |add-plugin|
792
793The |:runtime| command has been added to load one or more files in
794'runtimepath'.
795
796Standard plugins:
797netrw.vim - Edit files over a network |new-network-files|
798gzip.vim - Edit compressed files
799explorer.vim - Browse directories |new-file-browser|
800
801Added support for local help files. |add-local-help|.
802When searching for help tags, all "doc/tags" files in 'runtimepath' are used.
803Added the ":helptags" command: Generate a tags file for a help directory.
804The first line of each help file is automagically added to the "LOCAL
805ADDITIONS" section in doc/help.txt.
806
807Added the <unique> argument to ":map": only add a mapping when it wasn't
808defined before.
809
810When displaying an option value with 'verbose' set will give a message about
811where the option was last set. Very useful to find out which script did set
812the value.
813
814The new |:scriptnames| command displays a list of all scripts that have been
815sourced.
816
817GUI: For Athena, Motif and GTK look for a toolbar bitmap in the "bitmaps"
818directories in 'runtimepath'. Allows adding your own bitmaps.
819
820
821Filetype plugins *new-filetype-plugins*
822-----------------
823
824A new group of files has been added to do settings for specific file types.
825These can be options and mappings which are specifically used for one value of
826'filetype'.
827
828The files are located in "$VIMRUNTIME/ftplugin". The 'runtimepath' option
829makes it possible to use several sets of plugins: Your own, system-wide,
830included in the Vim distribution, etc.
831
832To be able to make this work, several features were added:
833- Added the "s:" variables, local to a script. Avoids name conflicts with
834 global variables. They can be used in the script and in functions,
835 autocommands and user commands defined in the script. They are kept between
836 invocations of the same script. |s:var|
837- Added the global value for local options. This value is used when opening
838 a new buffer or editing another file. The option value specified in a
839 modeline or filetype setting is not carried over to another buffer.
840 ":set" sets both the local and the global value.
841 ":setlocal" sets the local option value only.
842 ":setglobal" sets or displays the global value for a local option.
843 ":setlocal name<" sets a local option to its global value.
844- Added the buffer-local value for some global options: 'equalprg', 'makeprg',
845 'errorformat', 'grepprg', 'path', 'dictionary', 'thesaurus', 'tags',
846 'include' and 'define'. This allows setting a local value for these global
847 options, without making it incompatible.
848- Added mappings and abbreviations local to a buffer: ":map <buffer>".
849- In a mapping "<Leader>" can be used to get the value of the "mapleader"
850 variable. This simplifies mappings that use "mapleader". "<Leader>"
851 defaults to "\". "<LocalLeader>" does the same with "maplocalleader". This
852 is to be used for mappings local to a buffer.
853- Added <SID> Script ID to define functions and mappings local to a script.
854- Added <script> argument to ":noremap" and ":noremenu": Only remap
855 script-local mappings. Avoids that mappings from other scripts get in the
856 way, but does allow using mappings defined in the script.
857- User commands can be local to a buffer: ":command -buffer".
858
859The new ":setfiletype" command is used in the filetype detection autocommands,
860to avoid that 'filetype' is set twice.
861
862
863File browser *new-file-browser*
864------------
865
866When editing a directory, the explorer plugin will list the files in the
867directory. Pressing <Enter> on a file name edits that file. Pressing <Enter>
868on a directory moves the browser to that directory.
869
870There are several other possibilities, such as opening a file in the preview
871window, renaming files and deleting files.
872
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000873
874Editing files over a network *new-network-files*
875----------------------------
876
877Files starting with scp://, rcp://, ftp:// and http:// are recognized as
878remote files. An attempt is made to access these files with the indicated
879method. For http:// only reading is possible, for the others writing is also
880supported. Uses the netrw.vim script as a standard "plugin". |netrw|
881
882Made "gf" work on a URL. It no longer assumes the file is local on the
883computer (mostly didn't work anyway, because the full path was required).
884Adjusted test2 for this.
885
886Allow using a URL in 'path'. Makes ":find index.html" work.
887
888GTK: Allow dropping a http:// and ftp:// URL on Vim. The netrw plugin takes
Bram Moolenaar3df01732017-02-17 22:47:16 +0100889care of downloading the file. (Mikael Berthe)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000890
891
892Window for command-line editing *new-cmdwin*
893-------------------------------
894
895The Command-line window can be used to edit a command-line with Normal and
896Insert mode commands. When it is opened it contains the history. This allows
897copying parts of previous command lines. |cmdwin|
898
899The command-line window can be opened from the command-line with the key
900specified by the 'cedit' option (like Nvi). It can also be opened directly
901from Normal mode with "q:", "q/" and "q?".
902
903The 'cmdwinheight' is used to specify the initial height of the window.
904
905In Insert mode CTRL-X CTRL-V can be used to complete an Ex command line, like
906it's done on the command-line. This is also useful for writing Vim scripts!
907
908Additionally, there is "improved Ex mode". Entered when Vim is started as
909"exim" or "vim -E", and with the "gQ" command. Works like repeated use of
910":", with full command-line editing and completion. (Ulf Carlsson)
911
912
913Debugging mode *new-debug-mode*
914--------------
915
916In debugging mode sourced scripts and user functions can be executed line by
917line. There are commands to step over a command or step into it. |debug-mode|
918
919Breakpoints can be set to run until a certain line in a script or user
920function is executed. |:breakadd|
921
922Debugging can be started with ":debug {cmd}" to debug what happens when a
923command executes. The |-D| argument can be used to debug while starting up.
924
925
926Cursor in virtual position *new-virtedit*
927--------------------------
928
929Added the 'virtualedit' option: Allow positioning the cursor where there is no
930actual character in Insert mode, Visual mode or always. (Matthias Kramm)
931This is especially useful in Visual-block mode. It allows positioning a
932corner of the area where there is no text character. (Many improvements by
933Chase Tingley)
934
935
936Debugger interface *new-debug-itf*
937------------------
938
939This was originally made to work with Sun Visual Workshop. (Gordon Prieur)
940See |debugger.txt|, |sign.txt| and |workshop.txt|.
941
942Added the ":sign" command to define and place signs. They can be displayed
943with two ASCII characters or an icon. The line after it can be highlighted.
944Useful to display breakpoints and the current PC position.
945
Bram Moolenaard09091d2019-01-17 16:07:22 +0100946Added the :wsverb command to execute debugger commands.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000947
948Added balloon stuff: 'balloondelay' and 'ballooneval' options.
949
950Added "icon=" argument for ":menu". Allows defining a specific icon for a
951ToolBar item.
952
953
954Communication between Vims *new-vim-server*
955--------------------------
956
957Added communication between two Vims. Makes it possible to send commands from
958one Vim to another. Works for X-Windows and MS-Windows |clientserver|.
959
960Use "--remote" to have files be edited in an already running Vim.
961Use "--remote-wait" to do the same and wait for the editing to finish.
962Use "--remote-send" to send commands from one Vim to another.
963Use "--remote-expr" to have an expression evaluated in another Vim.
Bram Moolenaar402d2fe2005-04-15 21:00:38 +0000964Use "--serverlist" to list the currently available Vim servers. (X only)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +0000965There are also functions to communicate between the server and the client.
966|remote_send()| |remote_expr()|
967
968(X-windows version implemented by Flemming Madsen, MS-Windows version by Paul
969Moore)
970
971Added the command server name to the window title, so you can see which server
972name belongs to which Vim.
973
974Removed the OleVim directory and SendToVim.exe and EditWithVim.exe from the
975distribution. Can now use "gvim --remote" and "gvim --remote-send", which is
976portable.
977
978GTK+: Support running Vim inside another window. Uses the --socketid argument
979(Neil Bird)
980
981
982Buffer type options *new-buftype*
983-------------------
984
985The 'buftype' and 'bufhidden' options have been added. They can be set to
986have different kinds of buffers. For example:
987- 'buftype' = "quickfix": buffer with error list
988- 'buftype' = "nofile" and 'bufhidden' = "delete": scratch buffer that will be
989 deleted as soon as there is no window displaying it.
990
991'bufhidden' can be used to overrule the 'hidden' option for one buffer.
992
993In combination with 'buflisted' and 'swapfile' this offers the possibility to
994use various kinds of special buffers. See |special-buffers|.
995
996
997Printing *new-printing*
998--------
999
1000Included first implementation of the ":hardcopy" command for printing
1001to paper. For MS-Windows any installed printer can be used. For other
1002systems a PostScript file is generated, which can be printed with the
1003'printexpr' option.
1004(MS-Windows part by Vince Negri, Vipin Aravind, PostScript by Vince Negri and
1005Mike Williams)
1006
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02001007Made ":hardcopy" work with multibyte characters. (Muraoka Taro, Yasuhiro
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001008Matsumoto)
1009
1010Added options to tune the way printing works: (Vince Negri)
1011- 'printoptions' defines various things.
1012- 'printheader' specifies the header format. Added "N" field to 'statusline'
1013 for the page number.
1014- 'printfont' specifies the font name and attributes.
1015- 'printdevice' defines the default printer for ":hardcopy!".
1016
1017
1018Ports *ports-6*
1019-----
1020
1021Port to OS/390 Unix (Ralf Schandl)

1034
1035Dos 32 bit: Added support the Windows clipboard. (David Kotchan)
1036
1037Win32: Dynamically load Perl and Python. Allows compiling Vim with these
1038interfaces and will try to find the DLLs at runtime. (Muraoka Taro)
1039
1040Compiling the Win32 GUI with Cygwin. Also compile vimrun, dosinst and
1041uninstall. (Gerfried)
1042
1043Mac: Make Vim compile with the free MPW compiler supplied by Apple. And
1044updates for CodeWarrior. (Axel Kielhorn)
1045
1046Added typecasts and ifdefs as a start to make Vim work on Win64 (George
1047Reilly)
1048
1049
1050Quickfix extended *quickfix-6*
1051-----------------
1052
1053Added the "error window". It contains all the errors of the current error
1054list. Pressing <Enter> in a line makes Vim jump to that line (in another
1055window). This makes it easy to navigate through the error list.
1056|quickfix-window|.
1057
1058- |:copen| opens the quickfix window.
1059- |:cclose| closes the quickfix window.
1060- |:cwindow| takes care that there is a quickfix window only when there are
1061 recognized errors. (Dan Sharp)
1062
Bram Moolenaar402d2fe2005-04-15 21:00:38 +00001063- Quickfix also knows "info", next to "warning" and "error" types. "%I" can be
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001064 used for the start of a multi-line informational message. (Tony Leneis)
1065- The "%p" argument can be used in 'errorformat' to get the column number from
1066 a line where "^" points to the column. (Stefan Roemer)
1067- When using "%f" in 'errorformat' on a DOS/Windows system, also include "c:"
1068 in the filename, even when using "%f:".
1069
1070
1071Operator modifiers *new-operator-mod*
1072------------------
1073
1074Insert "v", "V" or CTRL-V between an operator and a motion command to force
1075the operator to work characterwise, linewise or blockwise. |o_v|
1076
1077
1078Search Path *new-search-path*
1079-----------
1080
1081Vim can search in a directory tree not only in downwards but also upwards.
1082Works for the 'path', 'cdpath' and 'tags' options. (Ralf Schandl)
1083
1084Also use "**" for 'tags' option. (Ralf Schandl)
1085
1086Added 'includeexpr', can be used to modify file name found by 'include'
1087option.
1088Also use 'includeexpr' for "gf" and "<cfile>" when the file can't be found
1089without modification. Useful for doing "gf" on the name after an include or
1090import statement.
1091
1092Added the 'cdpath' option: Locations to find a ":cd" argument. (Raf)
1093
1094Added the 'suffixesadd' option: Suffixes to be added to a file name when
1095searching for a file for the "gf", "[I", etc. commands.
1096
1097
1098Writing files improved *new-file-writing*
1099----------------------
1100
1101Added the 'backupcopy' option: Select whether a file is to be copied or
1102renamed to make a backup file. Useful on Unix to speed up writing an ordinary
1103file. Useful on other systems to preserve file attributes and when editing a
1104file on a Unix filesystem.
1105
1106Added the 'autowriteall' option. Works like 'autowrite' but for more
1107commands.
1108
1109Added the 'backupskip' option: A list of file patterns to skip making a backup
1110file when it matches. The default for Unix includes "/tmp/*", this makes
1111"crontab -e" work.
1112
1113Added support for Access Control Lists (ACL) for FreeBSD and Win32. The ACL
1114is copied from the original file to the new file (or the backup if it's
1115copied).
1116ACL is also supported for AIX, Solaris and generic POSIX. (Tomas Ogren)
1117And on SGI.
1118
1119
1120Argument list *new-argument-list*
1121-------------
1122
1123The support for the argument list has been extended. It can now be
1124manipulated to contain the files you want it to contain.
1125
1126The argument list can now be local to a window. It is created with the
1127|:arglocal| command. The |:argglobal| command can be used to go back to the
1128global argument list.
1129
1130The |:argdo| command executes a command on all files in the argument list.
1131
1132File names can be added to the argument list with |:argadd|. File names can
1133be removed with |:argdelete|.
1134
1135"##" can be used like "#", it is replaced by all the names in the argument
1136list concatenated. Useful for ":grep foo ##".
1137
1138The |:argedit| adds a file to the argument list and edits it. Like ":argadd"
1139and then ":edit".
1140
1141
1142Restore a View *new-View*
1143--------------
1144
1145The ":mkview" command writes a Vim script with the settings and mappings for
1146one window. When the created file is sourced, the view of the window is
1147restored. It's like ":mksession" for one window.
1148The View also contains the local argument list and manually created, opened
1149and closed folds.
1150
1151Added the ":loadview" command and the 'viewdir' option: Allows for saving and
Bram Moolenaar402d2fe2005-04-15 21:00:38 +00001152restoring views of a file with simple commands. ":mkview 1" saves view 1 for
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001153the current file, ":loadview 1" loads it again. Also allows quickly switching
1154between two views on one file. And saving and restoring manual folds and the
1155folding state.
1156
1157Added 'viewoptions' to specify how ":mkview" works.
1158
1159":mksession" now also works fine with vertical splits. It has been further
1160improved and restores the view of each window. It also works properly with
1161preview and quickfix windows.
1162
1163'sessionoptions' is used for ":mkview" as well.
1164Added "curdir" and "sesdir" to 'sessionoptions'. Allows selection of what
1165the current directory will be restored to.
1166
1167The session file now also contains the argument list(s).
1168
1169
1170Color schemes *new-color-schemes*
1171-------------
1172
1173Support for loading a color scheme. Added the ":colorscheme" command.
1174Automatically add menu entries for available schemes.
1175Should now properly reset the colors when 'background' or 't_Co' is changed.
1176":highlight clear" sets the default colors again.
1177":syntax reset" sets the syntax highlight colors back to the defaults.
1178For ":set bg&" guess the value. This allows a color scheme to switch back to
1179the default colors.
1180When syntax highlighting is switched on and a color scheme was defined, reload
1181the color scheme to define the colors.
1182
1183
1184Various new items *new-items-6*
1185-----------------
1186
1187Normal mode commands: ~
1188
1189"gi" Jump to the ^ mark and start Insert mode. Also works when the
1190 mark is just after the line. |gi|
1191
1192"g'm" and "g`m"
1193 Jump to a mark without changing the jumplist. Now you can use
1194 g`" to jump to the last known position in a file without side
1195 effects. Also useful in mappings.
1196
1197[', [`, ]' and ]`
1198 move the cursor to the next/previous lowercase mark.
1199
1200g_ Go to last non-blank in line. (Steve Wall)
1201
1202
1203Options: ~
1204
1205'autoread' When detected that a file changed outside of Vim,
1206 automatically read a buffer again when it's not changed.
1207 It has a global and a local value. Use ":setlocal autoread<"
1208 to go back to using the global value for 'autoread'.
1209
1210'debug' When set to "msg" it will print error messages that would
1211 otherwise be omitted. Useful for debugging 'indentexpr' and
1212 'foldexpr'.
1213
1214'lispwords' List of words used for lisp indenting. It was previously hard
1215 coded. Added a number of Lisp names to the default.
1216
1217'fold...' Many new options for folding.
1218
1219'modifiable' When off, it is impossible to make changes to a buffer.
1220 The %m and %M items in 'statusline' show a '-'.
1221
1222'previewwindow' Set in the preview window. Used in a session file to mark a
1223 window as the preview window.
1224
1225'printfont'
1226'printexpr'
1227'printheader'
1228'printdevice'
1229'printoptions' for ":hardcopy".
1230
1231'buflisted' Makes a buffer appear in the buffer list or not.
1232
1233Use "vim{version}:" for modelines, only to be executed when the version is
1234>= {version}. Also "vim>{version}", "vim<{version}" and "vim={version}".
1235
1236
1237Ex commands: ~
1238
1239:sav[eas][!] {file}
1240 Works like ":w file" and ":e #", but without loading the file
1241 again and avoiding other side effects. |:saveas|
1242
1243:silent[!] {cmd}
1244 Execute a command silently. Also don't use a delay that would
1245 come after the message. And don't do 'showmatch'.
1246 RISCOS: Removed that "!~cmd" didn't output anything, and
1247 didn't wait for <Enter> afterwards. Can use ":silent !cmd"
1248 now.
1249:menu <silent> Add a menu that won't echo Ex commands.
1250:map <silent> Add a mapping that won't echo Ex commands.
1251
1252:checktime Check for changed buffers.
1253
1254:verbose {cmd} Set 'verbose' for one command.
1255
1256:echomsg {expr}
1257:echoerr {expr} Like ":echo" but store the message in the history. (Mark
1258 Waggoner)
1259
1260:grepadd Works just like ":grep" but adds to the current error list
1261 instead of defining a new list. |:grepadd|
1262
1263:finish Finish sourcing a file. Can be used to skip the rest of a Vim
1264 script. |:finish|
1265
1266:leftabove
1267:aboveleft Split left/above current window.
1268
1269:rightbelow
1270:belowright Split right/below current window.
1271
1272:first, :bfirst, :ptfirst, etc.
1273 Alias for ":rewind". It's more logical compared to ":last".
1274
1275:enew Edit a new, unnamed buffer. This is needed, because ":edit"
1276 re-edits the same file. (Wall)
1277
1278:quitall Same as ":qall".
1279
1280:match Define match highlighting local to a window. Allows
1281 highlighting an item in the current window without interfering
1282 with syntax highlighting.
1283
1284:menu enable
1285:menu disable Commands to enable/disable menu entries without removing them.
1286 (Monish Shah)
1287
1288:windo Execute a command in all windows.
1289:bufdo Execute a command in all buffers.
1290
1291:wincmd Window (CTRL-W) command. Useful when a Normal mode command

1293 |CursorHold-example| for a nice application with it.
1294
1295:lcd and :lchdir
1296 Set local directory for a window. (Benjie Chen)
1297
1298:hide {command}
1299 Execute {command} with 'hidden' set.

1308
1309:compiler Load a Vim script to do settings for a specific compiler.
1310
1311:z# List numbered lines. (Bohdan Vlasyuk)
1312
1313
1314New marks: ~
1315
1316'( and ') Begin or end of current sentence. Useful in Ex commands.
1317'{ and '} Begin or end of current paragraph. Useful in Ex commands.
1318'. Position of the last change in the current buffer.
1319'^ Position where Insert mode was stopped.
1320
1321Store the ^ and . marks in the viminfo file. Makes it possible to jump to the
1322last insert position or changed text.

1405
1406
1407New Syntax files: ~
1408

1434Updated many syntax files to work both with Vim 5.7 and 6.0.
1435
1436Interface to Ruby. (Shugo Maeda)
1437Support dynamic loading of the Ruby interface on MS-Windows. (Muraoka Taro)
1438Support this for Mingw too. (Benoit Cerrina)
1439
1440Win32: Added possibility to load TCL dynamically. (Muraoka Taro)
1441Also for Borland 5.5. (Dan Sharp)
1442
1443Win32: When editing a file that is a shortcut (*.lnk file), edit the file it
1444links to. Unless 'binary' is set, then edit the shortcut file itself.
1445(Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
1446
1447The ":command" command now accepts a "-bar" argument. This allows the user
1448command to be followed by "| command".
1449
1450The preview window is now also used by these commands:
1451- |:pedit| edits the specified file in the preview window
1452- |:psearch| searches for a word in included files, like |:ijump|, and
1453 displays the found text in the preview window.
1454Added the CTRL-W P command: go to preview window.
1455
1456MS-DOS and MS-Windows also read the system-wide vimrc file $VIM/vimrc. Mostly
1457for NT systems with multiple users.
1458
1459A double-click of the mouse on a character that has a "%" match selects from
1460that character to the match. Similar to "v%".
1461
1462"-S session.vim" argument: Source a script file when starting up. Convenient
1463way to start Vim with a session file.
1464
1465Added "--cmd {command}" Vim argument to execute a command before a vimrc file
1466is loaded. (Vince Negri)
1467
1468Added the "-M" Vim argument: reset 'modifiable' and 'write', thus disallow
1469making changes and writing files.
1470
1471Added runtime/delmenu.vim. Source this to remove all menus and prepare for
1472loading new menus. Useful when changing 'langmenu'.
1473
1474Perl script to filter Perl error messages to quickfix usable format. (Joerg
1475Ziefle)
1476
1477Added runtime/macros/less.vim: Vim script to simulate less, but with syntax
1478highlighting.
1479
1480MS-Windows install program: (Jon Merz)
1481- The Win32 program can now create shortcuts on the desktop and install Vim in
1482 the Start menu.
1483- Possibly remove old "Edit with Vim" entries.
1484- The Vim executable is never moved or $PATH changed. A small batch file is
1485 created in a directory in $PATH. Fewer choices to be made.
1486- Detect already installed Vim versions and offer to uninstall them first.
1487
1488Improved the MS-Windows uninstal program. It now also deletes the entries in
1489the Start menu, icons from the desktop and the created batch files. (Jon Merz)
1490Also made it possible to delete only some of these. Also unregister gvim for
1491OLE.
1492
1493Generate a self-installing Vim package for MS-Windows. This uses NSIS. (Jon
1494Merz et al.)
1495
1496Added ":filetype detect". Try detecting the filetype again. Helps when
1497writing a new shell script, after adding "#!/bin/csh".
1498
1499Added ":augroup! name" to delete an autocommand group. Needed for the
1500client-server "--remote-wait".
1501
1502Add the Vim version number to the viminfo file, useful for debugging.
1503
1504==============================================================================
1505IMPROVEMENTS *improvements-6*
1506
1507Added the 'n' flag in 'cpoptions': When omitted text of wrapped lines is not
1508put between line numbers from 'number' option. Makes it a lot easier to read
1509wrapped lines.
1510
1511When there is a format error in a tags file, the byte position is reported so
1512that the error can be located.
1513
1514"gf" works in Visual mode: Use the selected text as the file name. (Chase
1515Tingley)
1516
1517Allow ambiguous mappings. Thus "aa" and "aaa" can both be mapped, the longest
1518matching one is used. Especially useful for ":lmap" and 'keymap'.
1519
1520Encryption: Ask the key to be typed twice when crypting the first time.
1521Otherwise a typo might cause the text to be lost forever. (Chase Tingley)
1522
1523The window title now has "VIM" on the end. The file name comes first, useful
1524in the taskbar. A "+" is added when the file is modified. "=" is added for
1525a read-only file. "-" is added for a file with 'modifiable' off.
1526
1527In Visual mode, mention the size of the selected area in the 'showcmd'
1528position.
1529
1530Added the "b:changedtick" variable. Incremented at each change, also for
1531undo. Can be used to take action only if the buffer has been changed.
1532
1533In the replacement string of a ":s" command "\=" can be used to replace with
1534the result of an expression. From this expression the submatch() function can
1535be used to access submatches.
1536
1537When doing ":qall" and there is a change in a buffer that is being edited in
1538another window, jump to that window, instead of editing that buffer in the
1539current window.
1540
1541Added the "++enc=" and "++ff=" arguments to file read/write commands to force
1542using the given 'encoding' or 'fileformat'. And added the "v:cmdarg"
1543variable, to be used for FileReadCmd autocommands that read/write the file
1544themselves.
1545
1546When reading stdin, first read the text in binary mode and then re-read it
1547with automatic selection of 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding'. This avoids
1548problems with not being able to rewind the file (e.g., when a line near the
1549end of the file ends in LF instead of CR-LF).
1550When reading text from stdin and the buffer is empty, don't mark it changed.
1551Allows exiting without trouble.
1552
1553Added an ID to many error messages. This will make it easier to find help for
1554a message.
1555
1556Insert mode:
1557- "CTRL-G j" and "CTRL-G k" can be used to insert in another line in the same
1558 column. Useful for editing a table.
1559- Added Thesaurus completion with CTRL-X CTRL-T. (Vince Negri)
1560- Added the 'thesaurus' option, to use instead of 'dictionary' for thesaurus
1561 completion. Added the 's' flag in 'complete'.
1562- Made CTRL-X CTRL-L in Insert mode use the 'complete' option. It now also
1563 scans other loaded buffers for matching lines.
1564- CTRL-R now also works in Insert mode while doing completion with CTRL-X or
1565 CTRL-N. (Neil Bird)
1566- When doing Insert mode completion, when completion is finished check for a
1567 match with words from 'cinkeys' or 'indentkeys'.
1568
1569Performance:
1570- Made display updating more efficient. Insert/delete lines may be used for
1571 all changes, also for undo/redo.
1572- The display is not redrawn when there is typeahead in Insert mode. Speeds
1573 up CTRL-R a lot.
1574- Improved speed of screen output for 32 bit DOS version. (Vince Negri)
1575- When dragging with the mouse, there is a lookahead to skip mouse codes when
1576 there is another one next. Makes dragging with the mouse a lot faster.
1577- Also a memory usage improvement: When calling u_save with a single line,
1578 don't save it if the line was recently saved for the same undo already.
1579- When using a script that appends one character at a time, the amount of
1580 allocated memory was growing steadily. Also when 'undolevels' is -1.
1581 Caused by the line saved for "U" never to be freed. Now free an undo block
1582 when it becomes empty.
1583- GUI and Dos32: Use a vertical scroll region, to make scrolling in a
1584 vertically split window faster. No need to redraw the whole window.
1585- When scrolling isn't possible with terminal codes (e.g., for a vertically
1586 split window) redraw from ScreenLines[]. That should be faster than going
1587 through the lines with win_line(), especially when using syntax
1588 highlighting.
1589- The Syntax menu is now pre-generated by a separate script. Makes loading
1590 the menu 70% faster. This can halve the startup time of gvim.
1591- When doing ":help tag", don't open help.txt first, jump directly to the help
1592 tag. It's faster and avoids an extra message.
1593- Win32: When a file name doesn't end in ".lnk" don't try resolving a
1594 shortcut, it takes quite a bit of time.
1595- Don't update the mouse pointer shape while there are typeahead characters.
1596- Change META[] from a string into an array, avoids using strchr() on it.
1597- Don't clear the command line when adding characters, avoids that screen_fill
1598 is called but doesn't do anything.
1599
1600Robustness:
1601- Unix: Check for running out of stack space when executing a regexp. Avoids
1602 a nasty crash. Only works when the system supports running the signal
1603 function on another stack.
1604- Disallow ":source <dirname>". On unix it's possible to read a directory,
1605 does not make sense to use it as Vim commands.
1606
1607Security:
1608- When reading from or writing to a temporary file, check that it isn't a
1609 symbolic link. Gives some protection against symlink attacks.
1610- When creating a backup file copy or a swap file, check for it already
1611 existing to avoid a symlink attack. (Colin Phipps)
1612- Evaluating options which are an expression is done in a |sandbox|. If the
1613 option was set by a modeline, it cannot cause damage.
1614- Use a secure way to generate temp file names: Create a private directory for
1615 temp files. Used for Unix, MS-DOS and OS/2.
1616- 'makeef' can be empty, which means that an internally generated file name is
1617 used. The old default was "/tmp/file", which is a security risk.
1618 Writing 'makeef' in the current directory fails in a read-only directory and
1619 causes trouble when using ":grep" on all files. Made the default empty for
1620 all systems, so that a temp file is used.
1621- The command from a tags file is executed in the sandbox for better security.
1622- The Ruby, Tcl and Python interfaces cannot be used from the sandbox. They
1623 might do dangerous things. Perl is still possible, but limited to the Safe
1624 environment. (Donnie Smith)
1625
1626Syntax highlighting:
1627- Optimized the speed by caching the state stack all over the file, not just
1628 the part being displayed. Required for folding.
1629- Added ":syntax sync fromstart": Always parse from the start of the file.
1630- Added the "display" argument for syntax items: use the item only when
1631 displaying the result. Can make parsing faster for text that isn't going to
1632 be displayed.
1633- When using CTRL-L, the cached states are deleted, to force parsing the text
1634 again.
1635- Use elfhash algorithm for table of keywords. This should give a better
1636 distribution and speedup keyword lookup. (Campbell)
1637- Also allow the "lc" leading context for skip and end patterns. (Scott
1638 Bigham)
1639- Syntax items can have the "extend" argument to undo the effect of a
1640 "keepend" argument of an item it is contained in. Makes it possible to have
1641 some contained items extend a region while others don't.
1642- ":syntax clear" now deletes the b:current_syntax variable. That's logical,
1643 since no syntax is defined after this command.
1644- Added ":syntax enable": switch on syntax highlighting without changing the
1645 colors. This allows specifying the colors in the .vimrc file without the
1646 need for a mysyntaxfile.
1647- Added ":syntax reset": reset the colors to their defaults.
1648- Added the "contains=TOP" and "contains=CONTAINED" arguments. Makes it
1649 possible to define a transparent item that doesn't contain itself.
1650- Added a "containedin" argument to syntax items. Allows adding a contained
1651 item to an existing item (e.g., to highlight a name in a comment).
1652
1653Modeless selection:
1654- When in the command-line window, use modeless selection in the other
1655 windows. Makes it possible to copy visible text to the command-line window.
1656- Support modeless selection on the cmdline in a terminal. Previously it was
1657 only possible for the GUI.
1658- Make double-right-click in modeless selection select a whole word. Single
1659 right click doesn't use the word selection started by a double-left-click.
1660 Makes it work like in Visual mode.
1661- The modeless selection no longer has an implied automatic copy to the
1662 clipboard. It now obeys the 'a' and 'A' flags in 'guioptions' or
1663 "autoselect" and "autoselectml" in 'clipboard'.
1664- Added the CTRL-Y command in Cmdline-mode to copy the modeless selection to
1665 the clipboard. Also works at the hit-enter prompt and the more prompt.
1666 Removed the mappings in runtime/mswin.vim for CTRL-Y and CTRL-Z in
1667 cmdline-mode to be able to use CTRL-Y in the new way.
1668
1669Reduced the amount of stack space used by regmatch() to allow it to handle
1670complicated patterns on a longer text.
1671
1672'isfname' now includes '%' and '#'. Makes "vim dir\#file" work for MS-DOS.
1673
1674Added keypad special keys <kEnter>, <k0> - <k9>. When not mapped they behave
1675like the ASCII equivalent. (Ivan Wellesz and Vince Negri)
1676Recognize a few more xterm keys: <C-Right>, <C-Left>, <C-End>, <C-Home>
1677
1678Also trigger the BufUnload event when Vim is going to exit. Perhaps a script
1679needs to do some cleaning up.
1680
1681Expand expression in backticks: `={expr}`. Can be used where backtick
1682expansion is done. (Vince Negri)
1683
1684GUI:
1685- Added 'L' and 'R' flags in 'guioptions': Add a left or right scrollbar only
1686 when there is a vertically split window.
1687- X11: When a color can't be allocated, use the nearest match from the
1688 colormap. This avoids that black is used for many things. (Monish Shah)
1689 Also do this for the menu and scrollbar, to avoid that they become black.
1690- Win32 and X11: Added 'mouseshape' option: Adjust the mouse pointer shape to
1691 the current mode. (Vince Negri)
1692- Added the 'linespace' option: Insert a pixel line between lines. (Nam)
1693- Allow modeless selection (without moving the cursor) by keeping CTRL and
1694 SHIFT pressed. (Ivan Wellesz)
1695- Motif: added toolbar. (Gordon Prieur) Also added tooltips.
1696- Athena: added toolbar and tooltips. (David Harrison -- based on Gordon
1697 Prieur's work)
1698- Made the 'toolbar' option work for Athena and Motif. Can now switch between
1699 text and icons on the fly. (David Harrison)
1700- Support menu separator lines for Athena. (David Harrison)
1701- Athena: Adjust the arrow pixmap used in a pullright menu to the size of the
1702 font. (David Harrison)
1703- Win32: Added "c" flag to 'guifont' to be able to specify the charset. (Artem
1704 Khodush)
1705- When no --enable-xim argument is given, automatically enable it when a X GUI
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02001706 is used. Required for dead key support (and multibyte input).
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001707- After a file selection dialog, check that the edited files were not changed
1708 or deleted. The Win32 dialog allows deleting and renaming files.
Bram Moolenaarb11160e2005-01-04 21:31:43 +00001709- Motif and Athena: Added support for "editres". (Marcin Dalecki)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001710- Motif and Athena: Added "menuFont" to be able to specify a font or fontset
1711 for the menus. Can also be set with the "Menu" highlight group. Useful
1712 when the locale is different from 'encoding'. (David Harrison)
1713 When FONTSET_ALWAYS is defined, always use a fontset for the menus. Should
1714 avoid trouble with changing from a font to a fontset. (David Harrison)
1715- Highlighting and font for the tooltips can be specified with the "Tooltip"
1716 highlight group. (David Harrison)
1717- The Cmdline-mode menus can be used at the more-prompt. This mostly works
1718 fine, because they start with a CTRL-C. The "Copy" menu works to copy the
1719 modeless selection. Allows copying the output of ":set all" or ":intro"
1720 without auto-selection.
1721- When starting the GUI when there is no terminal connected to stdout and
1722 stderr, display error messages in a dialog. Previously they wouldn't be
1723 displayed at all.
1724- Allow setting 'browsedir' to the name of a directory, to be used for the
1725 file dialog. (Dan Sharp)
1726- b:browsefilter and g:browsefilter can be set to the filters used for the
1727 file dialog. Supported for Win32 and Motif GUI. (Dan Sharp)
1728
1729X11:
1730- Support for the clipboard selection as register "+. When exiting or
1731 suspending copy the selection to cut buffer 0. Should allow copy/paste with
1732 more applications in a X11-standard way. (Neil Bird)
1733- Use the X clipboard in any terminal, not just in an xterm.
1734 Added "exclude:" in 'clipboard': Specify a pattern to match against terminal
1735 names for which no connection should be made to the X server. The default
1736 currently work for FreeBSD and Linux consoles.
1737- Added a few messages for when 'verbose' is non-zero to show what happens
1738 when trying to connect to the X server. Should help when trying to find out
1739 why startup is slow.
1740
1741GTK GUI: (partly by Marcin Dalecki)
1742- With some fonts the characters can be taller than ascent + descent. E.g.,
1743 "-misc-fixed-*-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1". Add one to the character
1744 cell height.
1745- Implement "no" value for 'winaltkeys': don't use Alt-Key as a menu shortcut,
1746 when 'wak' changed after creating the menus.
1747- Setting 'wak' after the GUI started works.
1748- recycle text GC's to reduce communication.
1749- Adjust icon size to window manager.
1750- Cleanup in font handling.
1751- Replace XQueryColor with GDK calls.
1752- Gnome support. Detects Gnome in configure and uses different widgets.
1753 Otherwise it's much like GTK. (Andy Kahn)
1754 It is disabled by default, because it causes a few problems.
1755- Removed the special code to fork first and then start the GUI. Now use
1756 _exit() instead of exit(), this works fine without special tricks.
1757- Dialogs sometimes appeared a bit far away. Position the dialogs inside
1758 the gvim window. (Brent Verner)
1759- When dropping a file on Vim, remove extra slashes from the start of the
1760 path. Also shorten the file name if possible.
1761
Bram Moolenaarb11160e2005-01-04 21:31:43 +00001762Motif: (Marcin Dalecki)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001763- Made the dialog layout better.
1764- Added find and find/replace dialogs.
1765- For the menus, change "iso-8859" to "iso_8859", Linux appears to need this.
1766- Added icon to dialogs, like for GTK.
1767- Use XPM bitmaps for the icon when possible. Use the Solaris XpmP.h include
1768 file when it's available.
1769- Change the shadow of the toolbar items to get a visual feedback of it being
Bram Moolenaar69a7cb42004-06-20 12:51:53 +00001770 pressed on non-LessTif.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00001771- Use gadgets instead of windows for some items for speed.
1772
1773Command line completion:
1774- Complete environment variable names. (Mike Steed)
1775- For ":command", added a few completion methods: "mapping", "function",
1776 "expression" and "environment".
1777- When a function doesn't take arguments, let completion add () instead of (.
1778
1779For MS-DOS, MS-Windows and OS/2: Expand %VAR% environment variables like $VAR.
1780(Walter Briscoe)
1781
1782Redirect messages to the clipboard ":redir @*" and to the unnamed register
1783":redir @"". (Wall)
1784
1785":let @/ = ''" clears the search pattern, instead of setting it to an empty
1786string.
1787
1788Expression evaluation:
1789- "? :" can be used like in C.
1790- col("$") returns the length of the cursor line plus one. (Stephen P. Wall)
1791- Optional extra argument for match(), matchend() and matchstr(): Offset to
1792 start looking for a match.
1793- Made third argument to strpart() optional. (Paul Moore, Zdenek Sekera)
1794- exists() can also be used to check for Ex commands and defined autocommands.
1795- Added extra argument to input(): Default text.
1796- Also set "v:errmsg" when using ":silent! cmd".
1797- Added the v:prevcount variable: v:count for the previous command.
1798- Added "v:progname", name with which Vim was started. (Vince Negri)
1799- In the verbose message about returning from a function, also show the return
1800 value.
1801
1802Cscope:
1803- Added the cscope_connection() function. (Andy Kahn)
1804- ":cscope kill -1" kills all cscope connections. (Andy Kahn)
1805- Added the 'cscopepathcomp' option. (Scott Hauck)
1806- Added ":scscope" command, split window and execute Cscope command. (Jason
1807 Duell)
1808
1809VMS:
1810- Command line arguments are always uppercase. Interpret a "-X" argument as
1811 "-x" and "-/X" as "-X".
1812- Set 'makeprg' and 'grepprg' to meaningful defaults. (Zoltan Arpadffy)
1813- Use the X-clipboard feature and the X command server. (Zoltan Arpadffy)
1814
1815Macintosh: (Dany St-Amant)
1816- Allow a tags file to have CR, CR-LF or LF line separator. (Axel Kielhorn)
1817- Carbonized (while keeping non Carbon code)
1818 (Some work "stolen" from Ammon Skidmore)
1819- Improved the menu item index handling (should be faster)
1820- Runtime commands now handle / in file name (MacOS 9 version)
1821- Added ":winpos" support.
1822- Support using "~" in file names for home directory.
1823
1824Options:
1825- When using set += or ^= , check for items used twice. Duplicates are
1826 removed. (Vince Negri)
1827- When setting an option that is a list of flags, remove duplicate flags.
1828- If possible, use getrlimit() to set 'maxmemtot' and 'maxmem'. (Pina)
1829- Added "alpha" to 'nrformats': increment or decrement an alphabetic character
1830 with CTRL-A and CTRL-X.
1831- ":set opt&vi" sets an option to its Vi default, ":set opt&vim" to its Vim
1832 default. Useful to set 'cpo' to its Vim default without knowing what flags
1833 that includes.
1834- 'scrolloff' now also applies to a long, wrapped line that doesn't fit in the
1835 window.
1836- Added more option settings to the default menus.
1837- Updated the option window with new options. Made it a bit easier to read.
1838
1839Internal changes:
1840- Split line pointers in text part and attributes part. Allows for future
1841 change to make attribute more than one byte.
1842- Provide a qsort() function for systems that don't have it.
1843- Changed the big switch for Normal mode commands into a table. This cleans
1844 up the code considerably and avoids trouble for some optimizing compilers.
1845- Assigned a negative value to special keys, to avoid them being mixed up with
1846 Unicode characters.
1847- Global variables expand_context and expand_pattern were not supposed to be
1848 global. Pass them to ExpandOne() and all functions called by it.
1849- No longer use the global reg_ic flag. It caused trouble and in a few places
1850 it was not set.
1851- Removed the use of the stuff buffer for "*", "K", CTRL-], etc. Avoids
1852 problem with autocommands.
1853- Moved some code from ex_docmd.c to ex_cmds2.c. The file was getting too
1854 big. Also moved some code from screen.c to move.c.
1855- Don't include the CRC table for encryption, generate it. Saves quite a bit
1856 of space in the source code. (Matthias Kramm)
1857- Renamed multibyte.c to mbyte.c to avoid a problem with 8.3 filesystems.
1858- Removed the GTK implementation of ":findhelp", it now uses the
1859 ToolBar.FindHelp menu entry.
1860- Renamed mch_windexit() to mch_exit(), mch_init() to mch_early_init() and
1861 mch_shellinit() to mch_init().
1862
1863Highlighting:
1864- In a ":highlight" listing, show "xxx" with the highlight color.
1865- Added support for xterm with 88 or 256 colors. The right color numbers will
1866 be used for the name used in a ":highlight" command. (Steve Wall)
1867- Added "default" argument for ":highlight". When included, the command is
1868 ignored if highlighting for the group was already defined.
1869 All syntax files now use ":hi default ..." to allow the user to specify
1870 colors in his vimrc file. Also, the "if did_xxx_syntax_inits" is not needed
1871 anymore. This greatly simplifies using non-default colors for a specific
1872 language.
1873- Adjusted colortest.vim: Included colors on normal background and reduced the
1874 size by using a while loop. (Rafael Garcia-Suarez)
1875- Added the "DarkYellow" color name. Just to make the list of standard colors
1876 consistent, it's not really a nice color to use.
1877
1878When an xterm is in 8-bit mode this is detected by the code returned for
1879|t_RV|. All key codes are automatically converted to their 8-bit versions.
1880
1881The OPT_TCAP_QUERY in xterm patch level 141 and later is used to obtain the
1882actual key codes used and the number of colors for t_Co. Only when |t_RV| is
1883also used.
1884
1885":browse set" now also works in the console mode. ":browse edit" will give an
1886error message.
1887
1888":bdelete" and ":bunload" only report the number of deleted/unloaded buffers
1889when more than 'report'. The message was annoying when deleting a buffer in a
1890script.
1891
1892Jump list:
1893- The number of marks kept in the jumplist has been increased from 50 to 100.
1894- The jumplist is now stored in the viminfo file. CTRL-O can be used to jump
1895 to positions from a previous edit session.
1896- When doing ":split" copy the jumplist to the new window.
1897
1898Also set the '[ and '] marks for the "~" and "r" commands. These marks are
1899now always set when making a change with a Normal mode command.
1900
1901Python interface: Allow setting the width of a vertically split window. (John
1902Cook)
1903
1904Added "=word" and "=~word" to 'cinkeys' (also used in 'indentkeys').
1905
1906Added "j1" argument in 'cinoptions': indent {} inside () for Java. (Johannes
1907Zellner)
1908Added the "l" flag in 'cinoptions'. (Anduin Withers)
1909Added 'C', 'U', 'w' and 'm' flags to 'cinoptions'. (Servatius Brandt)
1910
1911When doing ":wall" or ":wqall" and a modified buffer doesn't have a name,
1912mention its buffer number in the error message.
1913
1914":function Name" lists the function with line numbers. Makes it easier to
1915find out where an error happened.
1916
1917In non-blockwise Visual mode, "r" replaces all selected characters with the
1918typed one, like in blockwise Visual mode.
1919
1920When editing the last file in the argument list in any way, allow exiting.
1921Previously this was only possible when getting to that file with ":next" or
1922":last".
1923
1924Added the '1' flag to 'formatoptions'. (Vit Stradal)
1925Added 'n' flag in 'formatoptions': format a numbered list.
1926
1927Swap file:
1928- When a swap file already exists, and the user selects "Delete" at the
1929 ATTENTION prompt, use the same ".swp" swapfile, to avoid creating a ".swo"
1930 file which won't always be found.
1931- When giving the ATTENTION message and the date of the file is newer than the
1932 date of swap file, give a warning about this.
1933- Made the info for an existing swap file a bit shorter, so that it still fits
1934 on a 24 line screen.
1935- It was possible to make a symlink with the name of a swap file, linking to a
1936 file that doesn't exist. Vim would then silently use another file (if open
1937 with O_EXCL refuses a symlink). Now check for a symlink to exist. Also do
1938 another check for an existing swap file just before creating it to catch a
1939 symlink attack.
1940
1941The g CTRL-G command also works in Visual mode and counts the number of words.
1942(Chase Tingley)
1943
1944Give an error message when using 'shell' and it's empty.
1945
1946Added the possibility to include "%s" in 'shellpipe'.
1947
1948Added "uhex" value for 'display': show non-printable characters as <xx>.
1949Show unprintable characters with NonText highlighting, also in the command
1950line.
1951
1952When asked to display the value of a hidden option, tell it's not supported.
1953
1954Win32:
1955- When dropping a shortcut on gvim (.lnk file) edit the target, not the
1956 shortcut itself. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
1957- Added C versions of the OpenWithVim and SendToVim programs. (Walter Briscoe)
1958- When 'shell' is "cmd" or "cmd.exe", set 'shellredir' to redirect stderr too.
1959 Also check for the Unix shell names.
1960- When $HOMEDRIVE and $HOMEPATH are defined, use them to define $HOME. (Craig
1961 Barkhouse)
1962
1963Win32 console version:
1964- Includes the user and system name in the ":version" message, when available.
1965 It generates a pathdef.c file for this. (Jon Miner)
1966- Set the window icon to Vim's icon (only for Windows 2000). While executing
1967 a shell command, modify the window title to show this. When exiting,
1968 restore the cursor position too. (Craig Barkhouse)
1969- The Win32 console version can be compiled with OLE support. It can only
1970 function as a client, not as an OLE server.
1971
1972Errorformat:
1973- Let "%p" in 'errorformat' (column of error indicated by a row of characters)
1974 also accept a line of dots.
1975- Added "%v" item in 'errorformat': Virtual column number. (Dan Sharp)
1976- Added a default 'errorformat' value for VMS. (Jim Bush)
1977
1978The "p" command can now be used in Visual mode. It overwrites the selected
1979text with the contents of a register.
1980
1981Highlight the <> items in the intro message to make clear they are special.
1982
1983When using the "c" flag for ":substitute", allow typing "l" for replacing this
1984item and then stop: "last".
1985
1986When printing a verbose message about sourcing another file, print the line
1987number.
1988
1989When resizing the Vim window, don't use 'equalalways'. Avoids that making the
1990Vim window smaller makes split windows bigger. And it's what the docs say.
1991
1992When typing CTRL-D in Insert mode, just after an autoindent, then hitting CR
1993kept the remaining white space. Now made it work like BS: delete the
1994autoindent to avoid a blank non-empty line results.
1995
1996Added a GetHwnd() call to the OLE interface. (Vince Negri)
1997
1998Made ":normal" work in an event handler. Useful when dropping a file on Vim
1999and for CursorHold autocommands.
2000
2001For the MS-Windows version, don't change to the directory of the file when a
2002slash is used instead of a backslash. Explorer should always use a backslash,
2003the user can use a slash when typing the command.
2004
2005Timestamps:
2006- When a buffer was changed outside of Vim and regaining focus, give a dialog
2007 to allow the user to reload the file. Now also for other GUIs than
2008 MS-Windows. And also used in the console, when compiled with dialog
2009 support.
2010- Inspect the file contents to find out if it really changed, ignore
2011 situations where only the time stamp changed (e.g., checking the file out
2012 from CVS).
2013- When checking the timestamp, first check if the file size changed, to avoid
2014 a file compare then. Makes it quicker for large (log) files that are
2015 appended to.
2016- Don't give a warning for a changed or deleted file when 'buftype' is set.
2017- No longer warn for a changed directory. This avoids that the file explorer
2018 produces warnings.
2019- Checking timestamps is only done for buffers that are not hidden. These
2020 will be checked when they become unhidden.
2021- When checking for a file being changed outside of Vim, also check if the
2022 file permissions changed. When the file contents didn't change but the
2023 permissions did, give a warning.
2024- Avoid checking too often, otherwise the dialog keeps popping up for a log
2025 file that steadily grows.
2026
2027Mapping <M-A> when 'encoding' is "latin1" and then setting 'encoding' to
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002028"utf-8" causes the first byte of a multibyte to be mapped. Can cause very
2029hard to find problems. Disallow mapping part of a multibyte character.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002030
2031For ":python" and ":tcl" accept an in-line script. (Johannes Zellner)
2032Also for ":ruby" and ":perl". (Benoit Cerrina)
2033
2034Made ":syn include" use 'runtimepath' when the file name is not a full path.
2035
2036When 'switchbuf' contains "split" and the current window is empty, don't split
2037the window.
2038
2039Unix: Catch SIGPWR to preserve files when the power is about to go down.
2040
2041Sniff interface: (Anton Leherbauer)
2042- fixed windows code, esp. the event handling stuff
2043- adaptations for sniff 4.x ($SNIFF_DIR4)
2044- support for adding sniff requests at runtime
2045
2046Support the notation <A-x> as an alias for <M-x>. This logical, since the Alt
2047key is used.
2048
2049":find" accepts a count, which means that the count'th match in 'path' is
2050used.
2051
2052":ls" and ":buffers" output shows modified/readonly/modifiable flag. When a
2053buffer is active show "a" instead of nothing. When a buffer isn't loaded
2054show nothing instead of "-".
2055
2056Unix install:
2057- When installing the tools, set absolute paths in tools scripts efm_perl.pl
2058 and mve.awk. Avoids that the user has to edit these files.
2059- Install Icons for KDE when the directories exist and the icons do not exist
2060 yet.
2061
2062Added has("win95"), to be able to distinguish between MS-Windows 95/98/ME and
2063NT/2000/XP in a Vim script.
2064
2065When a ":cd" command was typed, echo the new current directory. (Dan Sharp)
2066
2067When using ":winpos" before the GUI window has been opened, remember the
2068values until it is opened.
2069
2070In the ":version" output, add "/dyn" for features that are dynamically loaded.
2071This indicates the feature may not always work.
2072
2073On Windows NT it is possible that a directory is read-only, but a file can be
2074deleted. When making a backup by renaming the file and 'backupdir' doesn't
2075use the current directory, this causes the original file to be deleted,
2076without the possibility to create a new file. Give an extra error message
2077then to warn to user about this.
2078
2079Made CTRL-R CTRL-O at the command line work like CTRL-R CTRL-R, so that it's
2080consistent with Insert mode.
2081
2082==============================================================================
2083COMPILE TIME CHANGES *compile-changes-6*
2084
2085All generated files have been moved out of the "src" directory. This makes it
2086easy to see which files are not edited by hand. The files generated by
2087configure are now in the "src/auto" directory. For Unix, compiled object
2088files go in the objects directory.
2089
2090The source archive was over the 1.4M floppy limit. The archives are now split
2091up into two runtime and two source archives. Also provide a bzip2 compressed
2092archive that contains all the sources and runtime files.
2093
2094Added "reconfig" as a target for make. Useful when changing some of the
2095arguments that require flushing the cache, such as switching from GTK to
2096Motif. Adjusted the meaning of GUI_INC_LOC and GUI_LIB_LOC to be consistent
2097over different GUIs.
2098
2099Added src/README.txt to give an overview of the main parts of the source code.
2100
2101The Unix Makefile now fully supports using $(DESTDIR) to install to a specific
2102location. Replaces the manual setting of *ENDLOC variables.
2103
2104Added the possibility for a maintainer of a binary version to include his
2105e-mail address with the --with-compiledby configure argument.
2106
2107Included features are now grouped in "tiny", "small", "normal", "big" and
2108"huge". This replaces "min-features" and "max-features". Using "tiny"
2109disables multiple windows for a really small Vim.
2110
2111For the tiny version or when FEAT_WINDOWS is not defined: Firstwin and lastwin
2112are equal to curwin and don't use w_next and w_prev.
2113
2114Added the +listcmds feature. Can be used to compile without the Vim commands
2115that manipulate the buffer list and argument list (the buffer list itself is
2116still there, can't do without it).
2117
2118Added the +vreplace feature. It is disabled in the "small" version to avoid
2119that the 16 bit DOS version runs out of memory.
2120
2121Removed GTK+ support for versions older than 1.1.16.
2122
2123The configure checks for using PTYs have been improved. Code taken from a
2124recent version of screen.
2125
2126Added configure options to install Vim, Ex and View under another name (e.g.,
2127vim6, ex6 and view6).
2128
2129Added "--with-global-runtime" configure argument. Allows specifying the
2130global directory used in the 'runtimepath' default.
2131
2132Made enabling the SNiFF+ interface possible with a configure argument.
2133
2134Configure now always checks /usr/local/lib for libraries and
2135/usr/local/include for include files. Helps finding the stuff for iconv() and
2136gettext().
2137
2138Moved the command line history stuff into the +cmdline_hist feature, to
2139exclude the command line history from the tiny version.
2140
2141MS-Windows: Moved common functions from Win16 and Win32 to os_mswin.c. Avoids
2142having to change two files for one problem. (Vince Negri)
2143
2144Moved common code from gui_w16.c and gui_w32.c to gui_w48.c (Vince Negri)
2145
2146The jumplist is now a separate feature. It is disabled for the "small"
2147version (16 bit MS-DOS).
2148
2149Renamed all types ending in _t to end in _T. Avoids potential problems with
2150system types.
2151
2152Added a configure check for X11 header files that implicitly define the return
2153type to int. (Steve Wall)
2154
2155"make doslang" in the top directory makes an archive with the menu and .mo
2156files for Windows. This uses the files generated on Unix, these should work
2157on MS-Windows as well.
2158
2159Merged a large part of os_vms.c with os_unix.c. The code was duplicated in
2160the past which made maintenance more work. (Zoltan Arpadffy)
2161
2162Updated the Borland C version 5 Makefile: (Dan Sharp)
2163- Fixed the Perl build
2164- Added python and tcl builds
2165- Added dynamic perl and dynamic python builds
2166- Added uninstal.exe build
2167- Use "yes" and "no" for the options, like in Make_mvc.mak.
2168
2169Win32: Merged Make_gvc.mak and Make_ovc.mak into one file: Make_ivc.mak. It's
2170much smaller, many unnecessary text has been removed. (Walter Briscoe)
2171Added Make_dvc.mak to be able to debug exe generated with Make_mvc.mak in
2172MS-Devstudio. (Walter Briscoe)
2173
2174MS-Windows: The big gvim.exe, which includes OLE, now also includes
2175dynamically loaded Tcl, Perl and Python. This uses ActivePerl 5.6.1,
2176ActivePython 2.1.1 and ActiveTCL 8.3.3
2177
2178Added AC_EXEEXT to configure.in, to check if the executable needs ".exe" for
2179Cygwin or MingW. Renamed SUFFIX to EXEEXT in Makefile.
2180
2181Win32: Load comdlg32.dll delayed for faster startup. Only when using VC 6.
2182(Vipin Aravind)
2183
2184Win32: When compiling with Borland, allow using IME. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
2185
2186Win32: Added Makefile for Borland 5 to compile gvimext.dll. (Yasuhiro
2187Matsumoto)
2188
2189==============================================================================
2190BUG FIXES *bug-fixes-6*
2191
2192When checking the command name for "gvim", "ex", etc. ignore case. Required
2193for systems where case is ignored in command names.
2194
2195Search pattern "[a-c-e]" also matched a 'd' and didn't match a '-'.
2196
2197When double-clicking in another window, wasn't recognized as double click,
2198because topline is different. Added set_mouse_topline().
2199
2200The BROKEN_LOCALE check was broken. (Marcin Dalecki)
2201
2202When "t_Co" is set, the default colors remain the same, thus wrong. Reset the
2203colors after changing "t_Co". (Steve Wall)
2204
2205When exiting with ":wqall" the messages about writing files could overwrite
2206each other and be lost forever.
2207
2208When starting Vim with an extremely long file name (around 1024 characters) it
2209would crash. Added a few checks to avoid buffer overflows.
2210
2211CTRL-E could get stuck in a file with very long lines.
2212
2213":au syntax<Tab>" expanded event names while it should expand groups starting
2214with "syntax".
2215
2216When expanding a file name caused an error (e.g., for <amatch>) it was
2217produced even when inside an "if 0".
2218
2219'cindent' formatted C comments differently from what the 'comments' option
2220specified. (Steve Wall)
2221
2222Default for 'grepprg' didn't include the file name when only grepping in one
2223file. Now /dev/null has been added for Unix.
2224
2225Opening the option window twice caused trouble. Now the cursor goes to the
2226existing option window.
2227
2228":sview" and ":view" didn't set 'readonly' for an existing buffer. Now do set
2229'readonly', unless the buffer is also edited in another window.
2230
2231GTK GUI: When 'guioptions' excluded 'g', the more prompt caused the toolbar
2232and menubar to disappear and resize the window (which clears the text).
2233Now always grey-out the toplevel menus to avoid that the menubar changes size
2234or disappears.
2235
2236When re-using the current buffer for a new buffer, buffer-local variables were
2237not deleted.
2238
2239GUI: when 'scrolloff' is 0 dragging the mouse above the window didn't cause a
2240down scroll. Now pass on a mouse event with mouse_row set to -1.
2241
2242Win32: Console version didn't work on telnet, because of switching between two
2243console screens. Now use one console screen and save/restore the contents
2244when needed. (Craig Barkhouse)
2245
2246When reading a file the magic number for encryption was included in the file
2247length. (Antonio Colombo)
2248
2249The quickfix window contained leading whitespace and NULs for multi-line
2250messages. (David Harrison)
2251
2252When using cscope, redundant tags were removed. This caused a numbering
2253problem, because they were all listed. Don't remove redundant cscope tags.
2254(David Bustos).
2255
2256Cscope: Test for which matches are in the current buffer sometimes failed,
2257causing a jump to another match than selected. (David Bustos)
2258
2259Win32: Buffer overflow when adding a charset name in a font.
2260
2261'titlestring' and 'iconstring' were evaluating an expression in the current
2262context, which could be a user function, which is a problem for local
2263variables vs global variables.
2264
2265Win32 GUI: Mapping <M-F> didn't work. Now handle SHIFT and CTRL in
2266_OnSysChar().
2267
2268Win32 GUI: (on no file), :vs<CR>:q<CR> left a trail of pixels down the middle.
2269Could also happen for the ruler. screen_puts() didn't clear the right char in
2270ScreenLines[] for the bold trick.
2271
2272Win32: ":%!sort|uniq" didn't work, because the input file name touches the
2273"|". Insert a space before the "|".
2274
2275OS/2: Expanding wildcards included non-existing files. Caused ":runtime" to
2276fail, which caused syntax highlighting to fail.
2277
2278Pasting a register containing CTRL-R on the command line could cause an
2279endless loop that can't be interrupted. Now it can be stopped with CTRL-C.
2280
2281When 'verbose' is set, a message for file read/write could overwrite the
2282previous message.
2283When 'verbose' is set, the header from ":select" was put after the last
2284message. Now start a new line.
2285
2286The hit-enter prompt reacted to the response of the t_RV string, causing
2287messages at startup to disappear.
2288
2289When t_Co was set to 1, colors were still used. Now only use color when t_Co
2290> 1.
2291
2292Listing functions with ":function" didn't quit when 'q' or ':' was typed at
2293the more prompt.
2294
2295Use mkstemp() instead of mktemp() when it's available, avoids a warning for
2296linking on FreeBSD.
2297
2298When doing Insert mode completion it's possible that b_sfname is NULL. Don't
2299give it to printf() for the "Scanning" message.
2300
2301":set runtimepath-=$VIMRUNTIME" didn't work, because expansion of wildcards
2302was done after trying to remove the string. Now for ":set opt+=val" and ":set
2303opt-=val" the expansion of wildcards is done before adding or removing "val".
2304
2305Using CTRL-V with the "r" command with a blockwise Visual selection inserted a
2306CTRL-V instead of getting a special character.
2307
2308Unix: Changed the order of libraries: Put -lXdmcp after -lX11 and -lSM -lICE
2309after -lXdmcp. Should fix link problem on HP-UX 10.20.
2310
2311Don't remove the last "-lm" from the link line. Vim may link but fail later
2312when the GUI starts.
2313
2314When the shell returns with an error when trying to expand wildcards, do
2315include the pattern when the "EW_NOTFOUND" flag was set.
2316When expanding wildcards with the shell fails, give a clear error message
2317instead of just "1 returned".
2318
2319Selecting a Visual block, with the start partly on a Tab, deleting it leaves
2320the cursor too far to the left. Causes "s" to work in the wrong position.
2321
2322Pound sign in normal.c caused trouble on some compilers. Use 0xA3 instead.
2323
2324Warning for changing a read-only file wasn't given when 'insertmode' was set.
2325
2326Win32: When 'shellxquote' is set to a double quote (e.g., using csh), ":!start
2327notepad file" doesn't work. Remove the double quotes added by 'shellxquote'
2328when using ":!start". (Pavol Juhas)
2329
2330The "<f-args>" argument of ":command" didn't accept Tabs for white space.
2331Also, don't add an empty argument when there are trailing blanks.
2332
2333":e test\\je" edited "test\je", but ":next test\\je" edited "testje".
2334Backslashes were removed one time too many for ":next".
2335
2336VMS: "gf" didn't work properly. Use vms_fixfilename() to translate the file
2337name. (Zoltan Arpadffy)
2338
2339After ":hi Normal ctermbg=black ctermfg=white" and suspending Vim not all
2340characters are redrawn with the right background.
2341
2342When doing "make test" without +eval or +windows feature, many tests failed.
2343Now have test1 generate a script to copy the correct output, so that a test
2344that doesn't work is skipped.
2345
2346On FreeBSD the Perl interface added "-lc" to the link command and Python added
2347"-pthread". These two don't work together, because the libc_r library should
2348be used. Removed "-lc" from Perl, it should not be needed.
2349Also: Add "-pthread" to $LIBS, so that the checks for functions is done with
2350libc_r. Sigaltstack() appears to be missing from libc_r.
2351
2352The Syntax sub-menus were getting too long, reorganized them and added another
2353level for some languages.
2354
2355Visual block "r"eplace didn't work well when a Tab is partly included.
2356(Matthias Kramm)
2357
2358When yanking a Visual block, where some lines end halfway the block, putting
2359the text somewhere else doesn't insert a block. Padd with spaces for missing
2360characters. Added "y_width" to struct yankreg. (Matthias Kramm)
2361
2362If a substitute string has a multibyte character after a backslash only the
2363first byte of it was skipped. (Muraoka Taro)
2364
2365Win32: Numeric keypad keys were missing from the builtin termcap entry.
2366
2367When a file was read-only ":wa!" didn't force it to be written. (Vince Negri)
2368
2369Amiga: A file name starting with a colon was considered absolute but it isn't.
2370Amiga: ":pwd" added a slash when in the root of a drive.
2371
2372Don't let 'ttymouse' default to "dec" when compiled with dec mouse support.
2373It breaks the gpm mouse (Linux console).
2374
2375The prototypes for the Perl interface didn't work for threaded Perl. Added a
2376sed command to remove the prototypes from proto/if_perl.pro and added them
2377manually to if_perl.xs.
2378
2379When ":w!" resets the 'readonly' option the title and status lines were not
2380updated.
2381
2382":args" showed the current file when the argument list was empty. Made this
2383work like Vi: display nothing.
2384
2385"99:<C-U>echo v:count" echoed "99" in Normal mode, but 0 in Visual mode.
2386Don't set v:count when executing a stuffed command.
2387
2388Amiga: Got a requester for "home:" because it's in the default runtime path.
2389Don't bring up a requester when searching for a file in 'path', sourcing the
2390.vimrc file or using ":runtime".
2391
2392Win16 and Win32: Considered a file "\path\file" absolute. Can cause the same
2393file to appear as two different buffers.
2394
2395Win32: Renaming a file to an empty string crashed Vim. Happened when using
2396explorer.vim and hitting ESC at the rename prompt.
2397
2398Win32: strftime() crashed when called with a "-1" value for the time.
2399
2400Win32 with Borland compiler: mch_FullName() didn't work, caused tag file not
2401to be found.
2402
2403Cscope sometimes jumped to the wrong tag. (David Bustos)
2404
2405OS/2: Could not find the tags file. mch_expand_wildcards() added another
2406slash to a directory name.
2407
2408When using ">>" the `] mark was not in the last column.
2409
2410When Vim was compiled without menu support, filetype.vim was still trying to
2411source the menu.vim script. (Rafael Garcia-Suarez)
2412
2413":ptag" added an item to the tag stack.
2414
2415Win32 IME: "gr" didn't use IME mode.
2416
2417In the "vim --help" message the term "options" was used for arguments. That's
2418confusing, call them "arguments".
2419
2420When there are two windows, and a BufUnload autocommand for closing window #1
2421closed window #2, Vim would crash.
2422
2423When there is a preview window and only one other window, ":q" wouldn't exit.
2424
2425In Insert mode, when cancelling a digraph with ESC, the '?' wasn't removed.
2426
2427On Unix glob(".*") returned "." and "..", on Windows it didn't. On Windows
2428glob("*") also returned files starting with a dot. Made this work like Unix
2429on all systems.
2430
2431Win32: Removed old code to open a console. Vimrun is now used and works fine.
2432
2433Compute the room needed by the intro message accurately, so that it also fits
2434on a 25 line console. (Craig Barkhouse)
2435
2436":ptnext" was broken. Now remember the last tag used in the preview window
2437separately from the tagstack.
2438
2439Didn't check for "-display" being the last argument. (Wichert Akkerman)
2440
2441GTK GUI: When starting "gvim" under some conditions there would be an X error.
2442Don't replace the error handler when creating the xterm clipboard. (Wichert
2443Akkerman)
2444
2445Adding a space after a help tag caused the tag not to be found. E.g., ":he
2446autoindent ".
2447
2448Was trying to expand a URL into a full path name. On Windows this resulted in
2449the current directory to be prepended to the URL. Added vim_isAbsName() and
2450vim_FullName() to avoid that various machine specific functions do it
2451differently.
2452
2453":n *.c" ":cd .." ":n" didn't use the original directory of the file. Vi only
2454does it for the current file (looks like a bug). Now remember the buffer used
Bram Moolenaarc8734422012-06-01 22:38:45 +02002455for the entry in the argument list and use its name (adjusted when doing
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002456":cd"), unless it's deleted.
2457
2458When inserting a special key as its name ("<F8>" as four characters) after
2459moving around in Insert mode, undo didn't work properly.
2460
2461Motif GUI: When using the right mouse button, for some people gvim froze for
2462a couple of seconds (Motif 1.2?). This doesn't happen when there is no Popup
2463menu. Solved by only creating a popup menu when 'mousemodel' is "popup" or
2464"popup_setpos". (David Harrison)
2465
2466Motif: When adding many menu items, the "Help" menu disappeared but the
2467menubar didn't wrap. Now manually set the menubar height.
2468
2469When using <BS> in Insert mode to remove a line break, or using "J" to join
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002470lines, the cursor could end up halfway a multibyte character. (Muraoka Taro)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002471
2472Removed defining SVR4 in configure. It causes problems for some X header
2473files and doesn't appear to be used anywhere.
2474
2475When 'wildignore' is used, 'ignorecase' for a tag match was not working.
2476
2477When 'wildignore' contains "*~" it was impossible to edit a file ending in a
2478"~". Now don't recognize a file ending in "~" as containing wildcards.
2479
2480Disabled the mouse code for OS/2. It was not really used.
2481
2482":mksession" always used the full path name for a buffer, also when the short
2483name could be used.
2484":mkvimrc" and ":mksession" didn't save 'wildchar' and 'pastetoggle' in such a
2485way that they would be restored. Now use the key name if possible, this is
2486portable.
2487
2488After recovering a file and abandoning it, an ":edit" command didn't give the
2489ATTENTION prompt again. Would be useful to be able to delete the file in an
2490easy way. Reset the BF_RECOVERED flag when unloading the buffer.
2491
2492histdel() could match or ignore case, depending on what happened before it.
2493Now always match case.
2494
2495When a window size was specified when splitting a window, it would still get
2496the size from 'winheight' or 'winwidth' if it's larger.
2497
2498When using "append" or "insert" inside a function definition, a line starting
2499with "function" or "endfunction" caused confusion. Now recognize the commands
2500and skip lines until a ".".
2501
2502At the end of any function or sourced file need_wait_return could be reset,
2503causing messages to disappear when redrawing.
2504
2505When in a while loop the line number for error messages stayed fixed. Now the
2506line number is remembered in the while loop.
2507
2508"cd c:/" didn't work on MS-DOS. mch_isdir() removed a trailing slash.
2509
2510MS-Windows: getftime() didn't work when a directory had a trailing slash or
2511backslash. Didn't show the time in the explorer because of this.
2512
2513When doing wildcard completion, a directory "a/" sorted after "a-b". Now
2514recognize path separators when sorting files.
2515
2516Non-Unix systems: When editing "c:/dir/../file" and "c:/file" they were
2517created as different buffers, although it's the same file. Expand to a full
2518file name also when an absolute name contains "..".
2519
2520"g&" didn't repeat the last substitute properly.
2521
2522When 'clipboard' was set to "unnamed", a "Y" command would not write to "0.
2523Now make a copy of register 0 to the clipboard register.
2524
2525When the search pattern matches in many ways, it could not always be
2526interrupted with a CTRL-C. And CTRL-C would have to be hit once for every
2527line when 'hlsearch' is on.
2528When 'incsearch' is on and interrupting the search for a match, don't abandon
2529the command line.
2530
2531When turning a directory name into a full path, e.g., with fnamemodify(),
2532sometimes a slash was added. Make this consistent: Don't add a slash.
2533
2534When a file name contains a "!", using it in a shell command will cause
2535trouble: ":!cat %". Escape the "!" to avoid that. Escape it another time
2536when 'shell' contains "sh".
2537
2538Completing a file name that has a tail that starts with a "~" didn't work:
2539":e view/~<Tab>".
2540
2541Using a ":command" argument that contains < and > but not for a special
2542argument was not skipped properly.
2543
2544The DOS install program: On Win2000 the check for a vim.exe or gvim.exe in
2545$PATH didn't work, it always found it in the current directory.
2546Rename the vim.exe in the current dir to avoid this. (Walter Briscoe)
2547
2548In the MS-DOS/Windows install program, use %VIM% instead of an absolute path,
2549so that moving Vim requires only one change in the batch file.
2550
2551Mac: mch_FullName() changed the "fname" argument and didn't always initialize
2552the buffer.
2553
2554MS-DOS: mch_FullName() didn't fix forward/backward slashes in an absolute file
2555name.
2556
2557"echo expand("%:p:h")" with an empty file name removed one directory name on
2558MS-DOS. For Unix, when the file name is a directory, the directory name was
2559removed. Now make it consistent: "%:p" adds a path separator for all systems,
2560but no path separator is added in other situations.
2561
2562Unix: When checking for a CTRL-C (could happen any time) and there is an X
2563event (e.g., clipboard updated) and there is typeahead, Vim would hang until a
2564character was typed.
2565
2566MS-DOS, MS-Windows and Amiga: expanding "$ENV/foo" when $ENV ends in a colon,
2567had the slash removed.
2568
2569":he \^=" gave an error for using \_. ":he ^=" didn't find tag :set^=. Even
2570"he :set^=" didn't find it.
2571
2572A tags file name "D:/tags" was used as file "tags" in "D:". That doesn't work
2573when the current path for D: isn't the root of the drive.
2574
2575Removed calls to XtInitializeWidgetClass(), they shouldn't be necessary.
2576
2577When using a dtterm or various other color terminals, and the Normal group has
2578been set to use a different background color, the background wouldn't always
2579be displayed with that color. Added check for "ut" termcap entry: If it's
2580missing, clearing the screen won't give us the current background color. Need
2581to draw each character instead. Vim now also works when the "cl" (clear
2582screen) termcap entry is missing.
2583
2584When repeating a "/" search command with a line offset, the "n" did use the
2585offset but didn't make the motion linewise. Made "d/pat/+2" and "dn" do the
2586same.
2587
2588Win32: Trying to use ":tearoff" for a menu that doesn't exist caused a crash.
2589
2590OpenPTY() didn't work on Sequent. Add a configure check for getpseudotty().
2591
2592C-indenting: Indented a line starting with ")" with the matching "(", but not
2593a line starting with "x)" looks strange. Also compute the indent for aligning
2594with items inside the () and use the lowest indent.
2595
2596MS-DOS and Windows: ":n *.vim" also matched files ending in "~".
2597Moved mch_expandpath() from os_win16.c and os_msdos.c to misc1.c, they are
2598equal.
2599
2600Macintosh: (Dany St-Amant)
2601- In Vi-compatible mode didn't read files with CR line separators.
2602- Fixed a bug in the handling of Activate/Deactivate Event
2603- Fixed a bug in gui_mch_dialog (using wrong pointer)
2604
2605Multibyte GDK XIM: While composing a multibyte-word, if user presses a
2606mouse button, then the word is removed. It should remain and composing end.
2607(Sung-Hyun Nam)
2608
2609MS-DOS, MS-Windows and OS/2: When reading from stdin, automatic CR-LF
2610conversion by the C library got in the way of detecting a "dos" 'fileformat'.
2611
2612When 'smartcase' is set, patterns with "\S" would also make 'ignorecase'
2613reset.
2614
2615When clicking the mouse in a column larger than 222, it moved to the first
2616column. Can't encode a larger number in a character. Now limit the number to
2617222, don't jump back to the first column.
2618
2619GUI: In some versions CSI would cause trouble, either when typed directly or
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002620when part of a multibyte sequence.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002621
2622When using multibyte characters in a ":normal" command, a trailing byte that
2623is CSI or K_SPECIAL caused problems.
2624
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002625Wildmenu didn't handle multibyte characters.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002626
2627":sleep 10" could not be interrupted on Windows, while "gs" could. Made them
2628both work the same.
2629
2630Unix: When waiting for a character is interrupted by an X-windows event (e.g.,
2631to obtain the contents of the selection), the wait time would not be honored.
2632A message could be overwritten quickly. Now compute the remaining waiting
2633time.
2634
2635Windows: Completing "\\share\c$\S" inserted a backslash before the $ and then
2636the name is invalid. Don't insert the backslash.
2637
2638When doing an auto-write before ":make", IObuff was overwritten and the wrong
2639text displayed later.
2640
2641On the Mac the directories "c:/tmp" and "c:/temp" were used in the defaults
2642for 'backupdir' and 'directory', they don't exist.
2643
2644The check for a new file not to be on an MS-DOS filesystem created the file
2645temporarily, which can be slow. Don't do this if there is another check for
2646the swap file being on an MS-DOS filesystem.
2647
2648Don't give the "Changing a readonly file" warning when reading from stdin.
2649
2650When using the "Save As" menu entry and not entering a file name, would get an
2651error message for the trailing ":edit #". Now only do that when the
2652alternate file name was changed.
2653
2654When Vim owns the X11 selection and is being suspended, an application that
2655tries to use the selection hangs. When Vim continues it could no longer
2656obtain the selection. Now give up the selection when suspending.
2657
2658option.h and globals.h were included in some files, while they were already
2659included in vim.h. Moved the definition of EXTERN to vim.h to avoid doing it
2660twice.
2661
2662When repeating an operator that used a search pattern and the search pattern
2663contained characters that have a special meaning on the cmdline (e.g., CTRL-U)
2664it didn't work.
2665
2666Fixed various problems with using K_SPECIAL (0x80) and CSI (0x9b) as a byte in
2667a (multibyte) character. For example, the "r" command could not be repeated.
2668
2669The DOS/Windows install program didn't always work from a directory with a
2670long filename, because $VIM and the executable name would not have the same
2671path.
2672
2673Multi-byte:
2674- Using an any-but character range [^x] in a regexp didn't work for UTF-8.
2675 (Muraoka Taro)
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002676- When backspacing over inserted characters in Replace mode multibyte
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002677 characters were not handled correctly. (Muraoka Taro)
2678- Search commands "#" and "*" didn't work with multibyte characters. (Muraoka
2679 Taro)
2680- Word completion in Insert mode didn't work with multibyte characters.
2681 (Muraoka Taro)
2682- Athena/Motif GUI: when 'linespace' is non-zero the cursor would be drawn too
2683 wide (number of bytes instead of cell width).
2684- When changing 'encoding' to "euc-jp" and inserting a character Vim would
2685 crash.
2686- For euc-jp characters positioning the cursor would sometimes be wrong.
2687 Also, with two characters with 0x8e leading byte only the first one would be
2688 displayed.
2689- When using DYNAMIC_ICONV on Win32 conversion might fail because of using the
2690 wrong error number. (Muraoka Taro)
2691- Using Alt-x in the GUI while 'encoding' was set to "utf-8" didn't produce
2692 the right character.
Bram Moolenaar3d1cde82020-08-15 18:55:18 +02002693- When using Visual block selection and only the left half of a double-wide
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002694 character is selected, the highlighting continued to the end of the line.
Bram Moolenaar3d1cde82020-08-15 18:55:18 +02002695- Visual-block delete didn't work properly when deleting the right half of a
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002696 double-wide character.
2697- Overstrike mode for the cmdline replaced only the first byte of a multibyte
2698 character.
Bram Moolenaar90df4b92021-07-07 20:26:08 +02002699- The cursor in Replace mode (also in the cmdline) was too small on a
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002700 double-wide character.
2701- When a multibyte character contained a 0x80 byte, it didn't work (was using
2702 a CSI byte instead). (Muraoka Taro)
2703- Wordwise selection with the mouse didn't work.
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002704- Yanking a modeless selection of multibyte characters didn't work.
2705- When 'selection' is "exclusive", selecting a word that ends in a multibyte
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002706 character used wrong highlighting for the following character.
2707
2708Win32 with Make_mvc.mak: Didn't compile for debugging. (Craig Barkhouse)
2709
2710Win32 GUI: When "vimrun.exe" is used to execute an external command, don't
2711give a message box with the return value, it was already printed by vimrun.
2712Also avoid printing the return value of the shell when ":silent!" is used.
2713
2714Win32: selecting a lot of text and using the "find/replace" dialog caused a
2715crash.
2716
2717X11 GUI: When typing a character with the 8th bit set and the Meta/Alt
2718modifier, the modifier was removed without changing the character.
2719
2720Truncating a message to make it fit on the command line, using "..." for the
2721middle, didn't always compute the space correctly.
2722
2723Could not imap <C-@>. Now it works like <Nul>.
2724
2725VMS:
2726- Fixed a few things for VAXC. os_vms_fix.com had some strange CTRL-M
2727 characters. (Zoltan Arpadffy and John W. Hamill)
2728- Added VMS-specific defaults for the 'isfname' and 'isprint' options.
2729 (Zoltan Arpadffy)
2730- Removed os_vms_osdef.h, it's no longer used.
2731
2732The gzip plugin used a ":normal" command, this doesn't work when dropping a
2733compressed file on Vim.
2734
2735In very rare situations a binary search for a tag would fail, because an
2736uninitialized value happens to be half the size of the tag file. (Narendran)
2737
2738When using BufEnter and BufLeave autocommands to enable/disable a menu, it
2739wasn't updated right away.
2740
2741When doing a replace with the "c"onfirm flag, the cursor was positioned after
2742the ruler, instead of after the question. With a long replacement string the
2743screen could scroll up and cause a "more" prompt. Now the message is
2744truncated to make it fit.
2745
2746Motif: The autoconf check for the Xp library didn't work.
2747
2748When 'verbose' is set to list lines of a sourced file, defining a function
2749would reset the counter used for the "more" prompt.
2750
2751In the Win32 find/replace dialog, a '/' character caused problems. Escape it
2752with a backslash.
2753
2754Starting a shell with ":sh" was different from starting a shell for CTRL-Z
2755when suspending doesn't work. They now work the same way.
2756
2757Jumping to a file mark while in a changed buffer gave a "mark not set" error.
2758
2759":execute histget("cmd")" causes an endless loop and crashed Vim. Now catch
2760all commands that cause too much recursiveness.
2761
2762Removed "Failed to open input method" error message, too many people got this
2763when they didn't want to use a XIM.
2764
2765GUI: When compiled without the +windows feature, the scrollbar would start
2766below line one.
2767
2768Removed the trick with redefining character class functions from regexp.c.
2769
2770Win32 GUI: Find dialog gives focus back to main window, when typing a
2771character mouse pointer is blanked, it didn't reappear when moving it in the
2772dialog window. (Vince Negri)
2773
2774When recording and typing a CTRL-C, no character was recorded. When in Insert
2775mode or cancelling half a command, playing back the recorded sequence wouldn't
2776work. Now record the CTRL-C.
2777
2778When the GUI was started, mouse codes for DEC and netterm were still checked
2779for.
2780
2781GUI: When scrolling and 'writedelay' is non-zero, the character under the
2782cursor was displayed in the wrong position (one line above/below with
2783CTRL-E/CTRL-Y).
2784
2785A ":normal" command would reset the 'scrollbind' info. Causes problems when
2786using a ":normal" command in an autocommand for opening a file.
2787
2788Windows GUI: a point size with a dot, like "7.5", wasn't recognized. (Muraoka
2789Taro)
2790
2791When 'scrollbind' wasn't set would still remember the current position,
2792wasting time.
2793
2794GTK: Crash when 'shell' doesn't exist and doing":!ls". Use _exit() instead of
2795exit() when the child couldn't execute the shell.
2796
2797Multi-byte:
Bram Moolenaar3d1cde82020-08-15 18:55:18 +02002798- GUI with double-byte encoding: a mouse click in left half of double-wide
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002799 character put the cursor in previous char.
2800- Using double-byte encoding and 'selection' is "exclusive": "vey" and "^Vey"
2801 included the character after the word.
2802- When using a double-byte encoding and there is a lead byte at the end of the
2803 line, the preceding line would be displayed. "ga" also showed wrong info.
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002804- "gf" didn't include multibyte characters before the cursor properly.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002805 (Muraoka Taro)
2806
2807GUI: The cursor was sometimes not removed when scrolling. Changed the policy
2808from redrawing the cursor after each call to gui_write() to only update it at
2809the end of update_screen() or when setting the cursor position. Also only
2810update the scrollbars at the end of update_screen(), that's the only place
2811where the window text may have been scrolled.
2812
2813Formatting "/*<Tab>long text", produced "* <Tab>" in the next line. Now
2814remove the space before the Tab.
2815Formatting "/*<Tab> long text", produced "* <Tab> long text" in the next
2816line. Now keep the space after the Tab.
2817
2818In some places non-ASCII alphabetical characters were accepted, which could
2819cause problems. For example, ":X" (X being such a character).
2820
2821When a pattern matches the end of the line, the last character in the line was
2822highlighted for 'hlsearch'. That looks wrong for "/\%3c". Now highlight the
2823character just after the line.
2824
2825Motif: If a dialog was closed by clicking on the "X" of the window frame Vim
2826would no longer respond.
2827
2828When using CTRL-X or CTRL-A on a number with many leading zeros, Vim would
2829crash. (Matsumoto)
2830
2831When 'insertmode' is set, the mapping in mswin.vim for CTRL-V didn't work in
2832Select mode. Insert mode wasn't restarted after overwriting the text.
2833Now allow nesting Insert mode with insert and change commands. CTRL-O
2834cwfoo<Esc> now also works.
2835
2836Clicking with the right mouse button in another window started Visual mode,
2837but used the start position of the current window. Caused ml_get errors when
2838the line number was invalid. Now stay in the same window.
2839
2840When 'selection' is "exclusive", "gv" sometimes selected one character fewer.
2841
2842When 'comments' contains more than one start/middle/end triplet, the optional
2843flags could be mixed up. Also didn't align the end with the middle part.
2844
2845Double-right-click in Visual mode didn't update the shown mode.
2846
2847When the Normal group has a font name, it was never used when starting up.
2848Now use it when 'guifont' and 'guifontset' are empty.
2849Setting a font name to a highlight group before the GUI was started didn't
2850work.
2851
2852"make test" didn't use the name of the generated Vim executable.
2853
2854'cindent' problems:
2855- Aligned with an "else" inside a do-while loop for a line below that loop.
2856 (Meikel Brandmeyer)
2857- A line before a function would be indented even when terminated with a
2858 semicolon. (Meikel Brandmeyer)
2859- 'cindent' gave too much indent to a line after a "};" that ends an array
2860 init.
2861- Support declaration lines ending in "," and "\". (Meikel Brandmeyer)
2862- A case statement inside a do-while loop was used for indenting a line after
2863 the do-while loop. (Meikel Brandmeyer)
2864- When skipping a string in a line with one double quote it could continue in
2865 the previous line. (Meikel Brandmeyer)
2866
2867When 'list' is set, 'hlsearch' didn't highlight a match at the end of the
2868line. Now highlight the '$'.
2869
2870The Paste menu item in the menu bar, the popup menu and the toolbar were all
2871different. Now made them all equal to how it was done in mswin.vim.
2872
2873st_dev can be smaller than "unsigned". The compiler may give an overflow
2874warning. Added a configure check for dev_t.
2875
2876Athena: closing a confirm() dialog killed Vim.
2877
2878Various typos in the documentation. (Matt Dunford)
2879
2880Python interface: The definition of _DEBUG could cause trouble, undefine it.
2881The error message for not being able to load the shared library wasn't
2882translated. (Muraoka Taro)
2883
2884Mac: (Dany St-Amant and Axel Kielhorn)
2885- Several fixes.
2886- Vim was eating 80% of the CPU time.
2887- The project os_mac.pbxproj didn't work, Moved it to a subdirectory.
2888- Made the menu priority work for the menubar.
2889- Fixed a problem with dragging the scrollbar.
2890- Cleaned up the various #ifdefs.
2891
2892Unix: When catching a deadly signal and we keep getting one use _exit() to
2893exit in a quick and dirty way.
2894
2895Athena menu ordering didn't work correctly. (David Harrison)
2896
2897A ":make" or ":grep" command with a long argument could cause a crash.
2898
2899Doing ":new file" and using "Quit" for the ATTENTION dialog still opened a new
2900window.
2901
2902GTK: When starting the GUI and there is an error in the .vimrc file, don't
2903present the wait-return prompt, since the message was given in the terminal.
2904
2905When there was an error in a .vimrc file the terminal where gvim was started
2906could be cleared. Set msg_row in main.c before writing any messages.
2907
2908GTK and X11 GUI: When trying to read characters from the user (e.g. with
2909input()) before the Vim window was opened caused Vim to hang when it was
2910started from the desktop.
2911
2912OS/390 uses 31 bit pointers. That broke some computations with MAX_COL.
2913Reduce MAX_COL by one bit for OS/390. (Ralf Schandl)
2914
2915When defining a function and it already exists, Vim didn't say it existed
2916until after typing it. Now do this right away when typing it.
2917
2918The message remembered for displaying later (keep_msg) was sometimes pointing
2919into a generic buffer, which might be changed by the time the message is
2920displayed. Now make a copy of the message.
2921
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002922When using multibyte characters in a menu and a trailing byte is a backslash,
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002923the menu would not be created correctly. (Muraoka Taro)
2924Using a multibyte character in the substitute string where a trail byte is a
2925backslash didn't work. (Muraoka Taro)
2926
2927When setting "t_Co" in a vimrc file, then setting it automatically from an
2928xterm termresponse and then setting it again manually caused a crash.
2929
2930When getting the value of a string option that is not supported, the number
2931zero was returned. This breaks a check like "&enc == "asdf". Now an empty
2932string is returned for string options.
2933
2934Crashed when starting the GTK GUI while using 'notitle' in the vimrc, setting
2935'title' in the gvimrc and starting the GUI with ":gui". Closed the connection
2936to the X server accidentally.
2937
2938Had to hit return after selecting an entry for ":ts".
2939
2940The message from ":cn" message was sometimes cleared. Now display it after
2941redrawing if it doesn't cause a scroll (truncated when necessary).
2942
2943hangulin.c didn't compile when the GUI was disabled. Disable it when it won't
2944work.
2945
2946When setting a termcap option like "t_CO", the value could be displayed as
2947being for a normal key with a modifier, like "<M-=>".
2948
2949When expanding the argument list, entries which are a directory name did not
2950get included. This stopped "vim c:/" from opening the file explorer.
2951
2952":syn match sd "^" nextgroup=asdf" skipped the first column and matched the
2953nextgroup in the second column.
2954
2955GUI: When 'lazyredraw' is set, 'showmatch' didn't work. Required flushing
2956the output.
2957
2958Don't define the <NetMouse> termcode in an xterm, reduces the problem when
2959someone types <Esc> } in Insert mode.
2960
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02002961Made slash_adjust() work correctly for multibyte characters. (Yasuhiro
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002962Matsumoto)
2963Using a filename in Big5 encoding for autocommands didn't work (backslash in
2964trailbyte). (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
2965
2966DOS and Windows: Expanding *.vim also matched file.vimfoo. Expand path like
2967Unix to avoid problems with Windows dir functions. Merged the DOS and Win32
2968functions.
2969
Bram Moolenaarb477af22018-07-15 20:20:18 +02002970Win32: GvimExt could not edit more than a few files at once, the length of the
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00002971argument was fixed.
2972
2973"ls -1 * | xargs vim" worked, but the input was in cooked mode. Now switch to
2974raw mode when needed. Use dup() to copy the stderr file descriptor to stdin
2975to make shell commands work. No longer requires an external program to do
2976this.
2977
2978When using ":filetype off", ftplugin and indent usage would be switched off at
2979the same time. Don't do this, setting 'filetype' manually can still use them.
2980
2981GUI: When writing a double-byte character, it could be split up in two calls
2982to gui_write(), which doesn't work. Now flush before the output buffer
2983becomes full.
2984
2985When 'laststatus' is set and 'cmdheight' is two or bigger, the intro message
2986would be written over the status line.
2987The ":intro" command didn't work when there wasn't enough room.
2988
2989Configuring for Ruby failed with a recent version of Ruby. (Akinori Musha)
2990
2991Athena: When deleting the directory in which Vim was started, using the file
2992browser made Vim exit. Removed the use of XtAppError().
2993
2994When using autoconf 2.50, UNIX was not defined. Moved the comment for "#undef
2995UNIX" to a separate line.
2996
2997Win32: Disabled _OnWindowPosChanging() to make maximize work better.
2998
2999Win32: Compiling with VC 4.0 didn't work. (Walter Briscoe)
3000
3001Athena:
3002- Finally fixed the problems with deleting a menu. (David Harrison)
3003- Athena: When closing the confirm() dialog, worked like OK was pressed,
3004 instead of Cancel.
3005
3006The file explorer didn't work in compatible mode, because of line
3007continuation.
3008
3009Didn't give an error message for ":digraph a".
3010
3011When using Ex mode in the GUI and typing a special key, <BS> didn't delete it
3012correctly. Now display '?' for a special key.
3013
3014When an operator is pending, clicking in another window made it apply to that
3015window, even though the line numbers could be beyond the end of the buffer.
3016
3017When a function call doesn't have a terminating ")" Vim could crash.
3018
3019Perl interface: could crash on exit with perl 5.6.1. (Anduin Withers)
3020
3021Using %P in 'errorformat' wasn't handled correctly. (Tomas Zellerin)
3022
3023Using a syntax cluster that includes itself made Vim crash.
3024
3025GUI: With 'ls' set to 2, dragging the status line all the way up, then making
3026the Vim window smaller: Could not the drag status line anymore.
3027
3028"vim -c startinsert! file" placed cursor on last char of a line, instead of
3029after it. A ":set" command in the buffer menu set w_set_curswant. Now don't
3030do this when w_curswant is MAXCOL.
3031
3032Win32: When the gvim window was maximized and selecting another font, the
3033window would no longer fill the screen.
3034
3035The line with 'pastetoggle' in ":options" didn't show the right value when it
3036is a special key. Hitting <CR> didn't work either.
3037
3038Formatting text, resulting in a % landing in the first line, repeated the % in
3039the following lines, like it's the start of a comment.
3040
3041GTK: When adding a toolbar item while gvim is already running, it wasn't
3042possible to use the tooltip. Now it works by adding the tooltip first.
3043
3044The output of "g CTRL-G" mentioned "Char" but it's actually bytes.
3045
3046Searching for the end of a oneline region didn't work correctly when there is
3047an offset for the highlighting.
3048
3049Syntax highlighting: When synchronizing on C-comments, //*/ was seen as the
3050start of a comment.
3051
3052Win32: Without scrollbars present, the MS mouse scroll wheel didn't work.
3053Also handle the scrollbars when they are not visible.
3054
3055Motif: When there is no right scrollbar, the bottom scrollbar would still
Bram Moolenaarb11160e2005-01-04 21:31:43 +00003056leave room for it. (Marcin Dalecki)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003057
3058When changing 'guicursor' and the value is invalid, some of the effects would
3059still take place. Now first check for errors and only make the new value
3060effective when it's OK.
3061
3062Using "A" In Visual block mode, appending to lines that don't extend into the
3063block, padding was wrong.
3064
3065When pasting a block of text, a character that occupies more than one screen
3066column could be deleted and spaces inserted instead. Now only do that with a
3067tab.
3068
3069Fixed conversion of documentation to HTML using Perl. (Dan Sharp)
3070
3071Give an error message when a menu name starts with a dot.
3072
3073Avoid a hang when executing a shell from the GUI on HP-UX by pushing "ptem"
3074even when sys/ptem.h isn't present.
3075
3076When creating the temp directory, make sure umask is 077, otherwise the
3077directory is not accessible when it was set to 0177.
3078
3079Unix: When resizing the window and a redraw is a bit slow, could get a window
3080resize event while redrawing, resulting in a messed up window. Any input
3081(e.g., a mouse click) would redraw.
3082
3083The "%B" item in the status line became zero in Insert mode (that's normal)
3084for another than the current window.
3085
3086The menu entries to convert to xxd and back didn't work in Insert mode.
3087
3088When ":vglobal" didn't find a line where the pattern doesn't match, the error
3089message would be the wrong way around.
3090
3091When ignoring a multi-line error message with "%-A", the continuation lines
3092would be used anyway. (Servatius Brandt)
3093
3094"grx" on a double-wide character inserted "x", instead of replacing the
3095character with "x ". "gR" on <xx> ('display' set the "uhex") didn't replace
3096at all. When doing "gRxx" on a control character the first "x" would be
3097inserted, breaking the alignment.
3098
3099Added "0)" to 'cinkeys', so that when typing a ) it is put in the same place
3100as where "==" would put it.
3101
3102Win32: When maximized, adding/removing toolbar didn't resize the text area.
3103
3104When using <C-RightMouse> a count was discarded.
3105
3106When typing CTRL-V and <RightMouse> in the command line, would insert
3107<LeftMouse>.
3108
3109Using "vis" or "vas" when 'selection' is exclusive didn't include the last
3110character.
3111
3112When adding to an option like 'grepprg', leading space would be lost. Don't
3113expand environment variables when there is no comma separating the items.
3114
3115GUI: When using a bold-italic font, would still use the bold trick and
3116underlining.
3117
3118Motif: The default button didn't work in dialogs, the first one was always
3119used. Had to give input focus to the default button.
3120
3121When using CTRL-T to jump within the same file, the '' mark wasn't set.
3122
3123Undo wasn't Vi compatible when using the 'c' flag for ":s". Now it undoes the
3124whole ":s" command instead of each confirmed replacement.
3125
3126The Buffers menu, when torn-off, disappeared when being refreshed. Add a
3127dummy item to avoid this.
3128
3129Removed calling msg_start() in main(), it should not be needed.
3130
3131vim_strpbrk() did not support multibyte characters. (Muraoka Taro)
3132
3133The Amiga version didn't compile, the code was too big for relative jumps.
3134Moved a few files from ex_docmd.c to ex_cmds2.c
3135
3136When evaluating the "= register resulted in the "= register being changed, Vim
3137would crash.
3138
3139When doing ":view file" and it fails, the current buffer was made read-only.
3140
3141Motif: For some people the separators in the toolbar disappeared when resizing
Bram Moolenaarb11160e2005-01-04 21:31:43 +00003142the Vim window. (Marcin Dalecki)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003143
3144Win32 GUI: when setting 'lines' to a huge number, would not compute the
3145available space correctly. Was counting the menu height twice.
3146
3147Conversion of the docs to HTML didn't handle the line with the +quickfix tag
3148correctly. (Antonio Colombo)
3149
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02003150Win32: fname_case() didn't handle multibyte characters correctly. (Yasuhiro
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003151Matsumoto)
3152
3153The Cygwin version had trouble with fchdir(). Don't use that function for
3154Cygwin.
3155
3156The generic check in scripts.vim for "conf" syntax was done before some checks
3157in filetype.vim, resulting in "conf" syntax too often.
3158
3159Dos32: Typing lagged behind. Would wait for one biostick when checking if a
3160character is available.
3161
3162GTK: When setting 'columns' while starting up "gvim", would set the width of
3163the terminal it was started in.
3164
3165When using ESC in Insert mode, an autoindent that wraps to the next line
3166caused the cursor to move to the end of the line temporarily. When the
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02003167character before the cursor was a double-wide multibyte character the cursor
Bram Moolenaar3d1cde82020-08-15 18:55:18 +02003168would be on the right half, which causes problems with some terminals.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003169
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02003170Didn't handle multibyte characters correctly when expanding a file name.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003171(Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
3172
3173Win32 GUI: Errors generated before the GUI is decided to start were not
3174reported.
3175
3176globpath() didn't reserve enough room for concatenated results. (Anduin
3177Withers)
3178
3179When expanding an option that is very long already, don't do the expansion, it
3180would be truncated to MAXPATHL. (Anduin Withers)
3181
3182When 'selection' is "exclusive", using "Fx" in Visual mode only moved until
3183just after the character.
3184
3185When using IME on the console to enter a file name, the screen may scroll up.
3186Redraw the screen then. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
3187
3188Motif: In the find/replace dialog the "Replace" button didn't work first time,
3189second time it replaced all matches. Removed the use of ":s///c".
3190GTK: Similar problems with the find/replace dialog, moved the code to a common
3191function.
3192
Bram Moolenaarb11160e2005-01-04 21:31:43 +00003193X11: Use shared GC's for text. (Marcin Dalecki)
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003194
3195"]i" found the match under the cursor, instead of the first one below it.
3196Same for "]I", "] CTRL-I", "]d", "]D" and "] CTRL-D".
3197
3198Win16: When maximized and the font is changed, don't change the window size.
3199(Vince Negri)
3200
3201When 'lbr' is set, deleting a block of text could leave the cursor in the
3202wrong position.
3203
3204Win32: When opening a file with the "Edit with Vim" popup menu entry,
3205wildcards would cause trouble. Added the "--literal" argument to avoid
3206expanding file names.
3207
3208When using "gv", it didn't restore that "$" was used in Visual block mode.
3209
3210Win32 GUI: While waiting for a shell command to finish, the window wasn't
3211redrawn at all. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
3212
3213Syntax highlighting: A match that continues on a next line because of a
3214contained region didn't end when that region ended.
3215
3216The ":s" command didn't allow flags like 'e' and 'i' right after it.
3217
3218When using ":s" to split a line, marks were moved to the next line. Vi keeps
3219them in the first line.
3220
3221When using ":n" ":rew", the previous context mark was at the top of the file,
3222while Vi puts it in the same place as the cursor. Made it Vi compatible.
3223
3224Fixed Vi incompatibility: Text was not put in register 1 when using "c" and
3225"d" with a motion character, when deleting within one line with one of the
3226commands: % ( ) `<character> / ? N n { }
3227
3228Win32 GUI: The tooltip for tear-off items remained when the tear-off item was
3229no longer selected.
3230
3231GUI: When typing ":" at the more prompt, would return to Normal mode and not
3232redraw the screen.
3233
3234When starting Vim with an argument "-c g/at/p" the printed lines would
3235overwrite each other.
3236
3237BeOS: Didn't compile. Configure didn't add the os_beos files, the QNX check
3238removed them. Various changes to os_beos.cc. (Joshua Haberman)
3239Removed the check for the hardware platform, the BeBox has not been produced
3240for a long time now.
3241
3242Win32 GUI: don't use a message box when the shell returns an error code,
3243display the message in the Vim window.
3244
3245Make_mvc.mak always included "/debug" for linking. "GUI=no" argument didn't
3246work. Use "DEBUG=yes" instead of "DEBUG=1" to make it consistent. (Dan Sharp)
3247
3248When a line in the tags file ended in ;" (no TAB following) the command would
3249not be recognized as a search command.
3250
3251X11: The inputMethod resource never worked. Don't use the "none" input method
3252for SGI, it apparently makes the first character in Input method dropped.
3253
3254Fixed incorrect tests in os_mac.h. (Axel Kielhorn)
3255
3256Win32 console: When the console where Vim runs in is closed, Vim could hang in
3257trying to restore the window icon. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
3258
3259When using ":3call func()" or ":3,3call func() the line number was ignored.
3260
3261When 'showbreak' and 'linebreak' were both set, Visual highlighting sometimes
3262continued until the end of the line.
3263
3264GTK GUI: Tearoff items were added even when 'guioptions' didn't contain 't'
3265when starting up.
3266
3267MS-Windows: When the current directory includes a "~", searching files with
3268"gf" or ":find" didn't work. A "$" in the directory had the same problem.
3269Added mch_has_exp_wildcard() functions.
3270
3271When reducing the Vim window height while starting up, would get an
3272out-of-memory error message.
3273
3274When editing a very long search pattern, 'incsearch' caused the redraw of the
3275command line to fail.
3276
3277Motif GUI: On some systems the "Help" menu would not be on the far right, as
3278it should be. On some other systems (esp. IRIX) the command line would not
3279completely show. Solution is to only resize the menubar for Lesstif.
3280
3281Using "%" in a line that contains "\\" twice didn't take care of the quotes
3282properly. Now make a difference between \" and \\".
3283
3284For non-Unix systems a dummy file is created when finding a swap name to
3285detect a 8.3 filesystem. When there is an existing swap file, would get a
3286warning for the file being created outside of Vim. Also, when closing the Vim
3287window the file would remain.
3288
3289Motif: The menu height was always computed, using a "-menuheight" argument
3290was setting the room for the command line. Now make clear the argument is not
3291supported.
3292
3293For some (EBCDIC) systems, POUND was equal to '#'. Added an #if for that to
3294avoid a duplicate case in a switch.
3295
3296The GUI may have problems when forking. Always call _exit() instead of exit()
3297in the parent, the child will call exit().
3298
3299Win32 GUI: Accented characters were often wrong in dialogs and tearoff menus.
3300Now use CP_ACP instead of CP_OEMCP. (Vince Negri)
3301
3302When displaying text with syntax highlighting causes an error (e.g., running
3303out of stack) the syntax highlighting is disabled to avoid further messages.
3304
3305When a command in a .vimrc or .gvimrc causes an ATTENTION prompt, and Vim was
3306started from the desktop (no place to display messages) it would hang. Now
3307open the GUI window early to be able to display the messages and pop up the
3308dialog.
3309
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02003310"r<CR>" on a multibyte character deleted only the first byte of the
Bram Moolenaar402d2fe2005-04-15 21:00:38 +00003311character. "3r<CR>" deleted three bytes instead of three characters.
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003312
3313When interrupting reading a file, Vi considers the buffer modified. Added the
3314'i' flag in 'cpoptions' flag for this (we don't want it modified to be able to
3315do ":q").
3316
3317When using an item in 'guicursor' that starts with a colon, Vim would get
3318stuck or crash.
3319
3320When putting a file mark in a help file and later jumping back to it, the
3321options would not be set. Extended the modeline in all help files to make
3322this work better.
3323
3324When a modeline contained "::" the local option values would be printed. Now
3325ignore it.
3326
3327Some help files did not use a 8.3 names, which causes problems when using
3328MS-DOS unzip. Renamed "multibyte.txt" to "mbyte.txt", "rightleft.txt" to
3329"rileft.txt", "tagsearch.txt" to "tagsrch.txt", "os_riscos.txt" to
3330"os_risc.txt".
3331
3332When Visual mode is blockwise, using "iw" or "aw" made it characterwise. That
3333doesn't seem right, only do this when in linewise mode. But then do it
3334always, not only when start and end of Visual mode are equal.
3335
3336When using "viw" on a single-letter word and 'selection' is exclusive, would
3337not include the word.
3338
3339When formatting text from Insert mode, using CTRL-O, could mess up undo
3340information.
3341
3342While writing a file (also for the backup file) there was no check for an
3343interrupt (hitting CTRL-C). Vim could hang when writing a large file over a
3344slow network, and moving the mouse didn't make it appear (when 'mousehide' is
3345set) and the screen wasn't updated in the GUI. Also allow interrupting when
3346syncing the swap file, it can take a long time.
3347
3348When using ":mksession" while there is help window, it would later be restored
3349to the right file but not marked as a help buffer. ":help" would then open
3350another window. Now use the value "help" for 'buftype' to mark a help buffer.
3351
3352The session file contained absolute path names in option values, that doesn't
3353work when the home directory depends on the situation. Replace the home
3354directory with ~/ when possible.
3355
3356When using 'showbreak' a TAB just after the shown break would not be counted
3357correctly, the cursor would be positioned wrong.
3358
3359With 'showbreak' set to "--->" or "------->" and 'sts' set to 4, inserting
3360tabs did not work right. Could cause a crash. Backspacing was also wrong,
3361could get stuck at a line break.
3362
3363Win32: crashed when tearing off a menu with over 300 items.
3364
3365GUI: A menu or toolbar item would appear when only a tooltip was defined for
3366it.
3367
3368When 'scrolloff' is non-zero and "$" is in 'cpoptions', using "s" while the
3369last line of the file is the first line on screen, the text wasn't displayed.
3370
3371When running "autoconf", delete the configure cache to force starting cleanly
3372when configure is run again.
3373
3374When changing the Normal colors for cterm, the value of 'background' was
3375changed even when the GUI was used.
3376
3377The warning for a missing vimrun.exe was always given on startup, but some
3378people just editing a file don't need to be bothered by it. Only show it when
3379vimrun would be used.
3380
3381When using "%" in a multibyte text it could get confused by trailbytes that
3382match. (Muraoka Taro)
3383
3384Termcap entry for RiscOS was wrong, using 7 and 8 in octal codes.
3385
3386Athena: The title of a dialog window and the file selector window were not
3387set. (David Harrison)
3388
3389The "htmlLink" highlight group specified colors, which gives problems when
3390using a color scheme. Added the "Underlined" highlight group for this.
3391
3392After using ":insert" or ":change" the '[ mark would be one line too low.
3393
3394When looking for the file name after a match with 'include' one character was
3395skipped. Same for 'define'.
3396
3397Win32 and DJGPP: When editing a file with a short name in a directory, and
3398editing the same file but using the long name, would end up with two buffers
3399on the same file.
3400
3401"gf" on a filename that starts with "../" only worked when the file being
3402edited is in the current directory. An include file search didn't work
3403properly for files starting with "../" or ".". Now search both relative to
3404the file and to the current directory.
3405
3406When 'printheader', 'titlestring', 'iconstring', 'rulerformat' or 'statusline'
3407contained "%{" but no following "}" memory was corrupted and a crash could
3408happen.
3409
3410":0append" and then inserting two lines did not redraw the blank lines that
3411were scrolled back down.
3412
3413When using insert mode completion in a narrow window, the message caused a
3414scroll up. Now shorten the message if it doesn't fit and avoid writing the
3415ruler over the message.
3416
3417XIM still didn't work correctly on some systems, especially SGI/IRIX. Added
3418the 'imdisable' option, which is set by default for that system.
3419
3420Patch 6.0aw.008
3421Problem: When the first character of a file name is over 127, the Buffers
3422 menu entry would get a negative priority and cause problems.
3423Solution: Reduce the multiplier for the first character when computing
3424 the hash value for a Buffers menu entry.
3425Files: runtime/menu.vim
3426
3427Patch 6.0aw.010
3428Problem: Win32: ":browse edit dir/dir" didn't work. (Vikas)
3429Solution: Change slashes to backslashes in the directory passed to the file
3430 browser.
3431Files: src/gui_w48.c
3432
3433Athena file browser: On some systems wcstombs() can't be used to get the
Bram Moolenaar207f0092020-08-30 17:20:20 +02003434length of a multibyte string. Use the maximum length then. (Yasuhiro
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00003435Matsumoto)
3436
3437Patch 6.0ax.001
3438Problem: When 'patchmode' is set, appending to a file gives an empty
3439 original file. (Ed Ralston)
3440Solution: Also make a backup copy when appending and 'patchmode' is set.
3441Files: src/fileio.c
3442
3443Patch 6.0ax.002
3444Problem: When 'patchmode' is set, appending to a compressed file gives an
3445 uncompressed original file. (Ed Ralston)
3446Solution: Create the original file before decompressing.
3447Files: runtime/plugin/gzip.vim
3448
3449Patch 6.0ax.005
3450Problem: Athena file selector keeps the title of the first invocation.
3451Solution: Set the title each time the file selector is opened. (David
3452 Harrison)
3453Files: src/gui_at_fs.c
3454
3455Patch 6.0ax.007
3456Problem: When using GPM (mouse driver in a Linux console) a double click is
3457 interpreted as a scroll wheel click.
3458Solution: Check if GPM is being used when deciding if a mouse event is for
3459 the scroll wheel.
3460Files: src/term.c
3461
3462Patch 6.0ax.010
3463Problem: The Edit.Save menu and the Save toolbar button didn't work when
3464 the buffer has no file name.
3465Solution: Use a file browser to ask for a file name. Also fix the toolbar
3466 Find item in Visual mode.
3467Files: runtime/menu.vim
3468
3469Patch 6.0ax.012
3470Problem: When 'cpoptions' contains "$", breaking a line for 'textwidth'
3471 doesn't redraw properly. (Stefan Schulze)
3472Solution: Remove the dollar before breaking the line.
3473Files: src/edit.c
3474
3475Patch 6.0ax.014
3476Problem: Win32: On Windows 98 ":make -f file" doesn't work when 'shell' is
3477 "command.com" and 'makeprg' is "nmake". The environment isn't
3478 passed on to "nmake".
3479Solution: Also use vimrun.exe when redirecting the output of a command.
3480Files: src/os_win32.c
3481
3482Patch 6.0ax.016
3483Problem: The version number was reported wrong in the intro screen.
3484Solution: Check for a version number with two additional letters.
3485Files: src/version.c
3486
3487Patch 6.0ax.019
3488Problem: When scrolling a window with folds upwards, switching to another
3489 vertically split window and back may not update the scrollbar.
3490Solution: Limit w_botline to the number of lines in the buffer plus one.

3568-----
3569
3570The license text was updated to make the meaning clearer and make it
3571compatible with the GNU GPL. Otherwise distributors have a problem when
3572linking Vim with a GPL'ed library.
3573
3574When installing the "less.sh" script it was not made executable. (Chuck Berg)
3575
3576Win32: The "9" key on the numpad wasn't working. (Julian Kinraid)
3577
3578The NSIS install script didn't work with NSIS 1.80 or later. Also add
3579Vim-specific icons. (Pruchnik)
3580
3581The script for conversion to HTML contained an "if" in the wrong place.
3582(Michael Geddes)
3583
3584Allow using ":ascii" in the sandbox, it's harmless.
3585
3586Removed creat() from osdef2.h.in, it wasn't used and may cause a problem when
3587it's redefined to creat64().
3588
3589The text files in the VisVim directory were in "dos" format. This caused
3590problems when applying a patch. Now keep them in "unix" format and convert
3591them to "dos" format only for the PC archives.
3592
3593Add ruby files to the dos source archive, they can be used by Make_mvc.mak.
3594(Mirek Pruchnik)
3595
3596"cp -f" doesn't work on all systems. Change "cp -f" in the Makefile to "rm
3597-f" and "cp".
3598
3599Didn't compile on a Compaq Tandem Himalaya OSS. (Michael A. Benzinger)
3600
3601The GTK file selection dialog didn't include the "Create Dir", "Delete File"
3602and "Rename File" buttons.
3603
3604When doing ":browse source" the dialog has the title "Run Macro". Better
3605would be "Source Vim script". (Yegappan Lakshmanan)
3606
3607Win32: Don't use the printer font as default for the font dialog.
3608
3609"make doslang" didn't work when configure didn't run (yet). Set $MAKEMO to
3610"yes". (Mirek Pruchnik)
3611
3612The ToolBar TagJump item used "g]", which prompts for a selection even when
3613there is only one matching tag. Use "g<C-]>" instead.
3614
3615The ming makefile for message translations didn't have the right list of
3616files.
3617
3618The MS-Windows 3.1 version complains about LIBINTL.DLL not found. Compile
3619this version without message translations.
3620
3621The Borland 5 makefile contained a check for Ruby which is no longer needed.
3622The URLs for the TCL library was outdated. (Dan Sharp)
3623
3624The eviso.ps file was missing from the DOS runtime archive, it's needed for
3625printing PostScript in the 32bit DOS version.
3626
3627In menu files ":scriptencoding" was used in a wrong way after patch 6.1a.032
3628Now use ":scriptencoding" in the file where the translations are given. Do
3629the same for all menus in latin1 encoding.
3630
3631Included a lot of fixes for the Macintosh, mostly to make it work with Carbon.
3632(Dany StAmant, Axel Kielhorn, Benji Fisher)
3633
3634Improved the vimtutor shell script to use $TMPDIR when it exists, and delete
3635the copied file when exiting in an abnormal way. (Max Ischenko)
3636
3637When "iconv.dll" can't be found, try using "libiconv.dll".
3638
3639When encryption is used, filtering with a shell command wasn't possible.
3640
3641DJGPP: ":cd c:" always failed, can't get permissions for "c:".
3642Win32: ":cd c:/" failed if the previous current directory on c: had become
3643invalid.
3644
3645DJGPP: Shift-Del and Del both produce \316\123. Default mapping for Del is
3646wrong. Disabled it.
3647
3648Dependencies on header files in MingW makefile was wrong.
3649
3650Win32: Don't use ACL stuff for MSVC 4.2, it's not supported. (Walter Briscoe)
3651
3652Win32 with Borland: bcc.cfg was caching the value for $(BOR), but providing a
3653different argument to make didn't regenerate it.
3654
3655Win32 with MSVC: Make_ivc.mak generates a new if_ole.h in a different
3656directory, the if_ole.h in the src directory may be used instead. Delete the
3657distributed file.
3658
3659When a window is vertically split and then ":ball" is used, the window layout
3660is messed up, can cause a crash. (Muraoka Taro)
3661
3662When 'insertmode' is set, using File/New menu and then double clicking, "i" is
3663soon inserted. (Merlin Hansen)
3664
3665When Select mode is active and using the Buffers menu to switch to another
3666buffer, an old selection comes back. Reset VIsual_reselect for a ":buffer"
3667command.
3668
3669When Select mode is active and 'insertmode' is set, using the Buffers menu to
3670switch to another buffer, did not return to Insert mode. Make sure
3671"restart_edit" is set.
3672
3673When double clicking on the first character of a word while 'selection' is
3674"exclusive" didn't select that word.
3675
3676
3677Patch 6.0.001

4590 execute it directly.
4591 Recognize "\<" and "\>" after removing "\V".
4592 Add "\<" and "\>" also for "replace all".

5039Problem: Unix: if expanding a wildcard in a file name results in a
5040 wildcard character and there are more parts in the path with a
5041 wildcard, it is expanded again.

5929Problem: Win32: When a directory on an NTFS partition is read/execute (no

5976==============================================================================
5977VERSION 6.2 *version-6.2*
5978
5979This section is about improvements made between version 6.1 and 6.2.
5980
5981This is mainly a bug-fix release. There are also a few new features.
5982
5983Main new features:
5984- Support for GTK 2. (Daniel Elstner)
5985- Support for editing Arabic text. (Nadim Shaikli & Isam Bayazidi)
5986- ":try" command and exception handling. (Servatius Brandt)
5987- Support for the neXtaw GUI toolkit (mostly like Athena). (Alexey Froloff)
5988- Cscope support for Win32. (Khorev Sergey)
5989- Support for PostScript printing in various 8-bit encodings. (Mike Williams)
5990
5991
5992Changed *changed-6.2*
5993-------
5994
5995Removed the scheme indent file, the internal Lisp indenting works well now.
5996
5997Moved the GvimEXt, OleVim and VisVim directories into the "src" directory.
5998This is more consistent with how xxd is handled.
5999
6000The VisVim.dll file is installed in the top directory, next to gvimext.dll,
6001instead of in a subdirectory "VisVim". Fixes that NSIS was uninstalling it
6002from the wrong directory.
6003
6004Removed the art indent file, it didn't do anything.
6005
6006submatch() returned line breaks with CR instead of LF.
6007
6008Changed the Win32 Makefiles to become more uniform and compile gvimext.dll.
6009(Dan Sharp)
6010
6011'cindent': Align a "//" comment with a "//" comment in a previous line.
6012(Helmut Stiegler)
6013
6014Previously only for xterm-like terminals parent widgets were followed to find
6015the title and icon label. Now do this for all terminal emulators.
6016
6017Made it possible to recognize backslashes for "%" matching. The 'M' flag in
6018'cpoptions' disables it. (Haakon Riiser)
6019
6020Removed the Make_tcc.mak makefile for Turbo C. It didn't work and we probably
6021can't make it work (the compiler runs out of memory).
6022
6023Even though the documentation refers to keywords, "[ CTRL-D" was using
6024'isident' to find matches. Changed it to use 'iskeyword'. Also applies to
6025other commands that search for defined words in included files such as
6026":dsearch", "[D" and "[d".
6027
6028Made 'keywordprg' global-local. (Christian Robinson)
6029
6030Enabled the Netbeans interface by default. Reversed the configure argument
6031from "--enable-netbeans" to "--disable-netbeans".

6134
Bram Moolenaar402d2fe2005-04-15 21:00:38 +00006135Arabic specific features. 'arabicshape', 'termbidi', 'arabic' and
Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +00006136'rightleftcmd' options. (Nadim Shaikli & Isam Bayazidi)
6137

6145Matsumoto)
6146
6147Compile gvimext.dll with MingW. (Rene de Zwart)

6164find an ordinary window to show the file in (not a preview window).
6165
6166Support for PostScript printing of various 8-bit encodings. (Mike Williams)
6167
6168inputdialog() accepts a third argument that is used when the dialog is
6169cancelled. Makes it possible to see a difference between cancelling and
6170entering nothing.
6171
6172Included Aap recipes. Can be used to update Vim to the latest version,
6173building and installing.

6181(Phillip Vandry)
6182
6183Dosinst.exe also finds gvimext.dll in the "GvimExt" directory. Useful when
6184running install in the "src" directory for testing.
6185
6186Support tag files that were sorted with case ignored. (Flemming Madsen)
6187
6188When completing a wildcard in a leading path element, as in "../*/Makefile",
6189only the last part ("Makefile") was listed. Support custom defined
6190command line completion. (Flemming Madsen)
6191
6192Also recognize "rxvt" as an xterm-like terminal. (Tomas Styblo)
6193
6194Proper X11 session management. Fixes that the WM_SAVE_YOURSELF event was not
6195used by popular desktops. (Neil Bird)
6196Not used for Gnome 2, it has its own handling.
6197
6198Support BOR, DEBUG and SPAWNO arguments for the Borland 3 Makefile. (Walter
6199Briscoe)
6200

6236Roelofs)
6237
6238Fixed a large number of spelling mistakes in the docs. (Adri Verhoef)
6239
6240The #defines for prototype generation were causing trouble. Changed them to
6241typedefs.
6242
6243A new version of libintl.h uses __asm__, which confuses cproto. Define a
6244dummy __asm__ macro.
6245
6246When 'virtualedit' is set can't move to halfway an unprintable character.
6247Cripples CTRL-V selection. (Taro Muraoka)
6248Allow moving to halfway an unprintable character. Don't let getvvcol() change
6249the pos->coladd argument.
6250
6251When a tab wraps to the next line, 'listchars' is set and 'foldcolumn' is
6252non-zero, only one character of the foldcolumn is highlighted. (Muraoka Taro)
6253
6254When using ":catch" without an argument Vim crashes. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
6255When no argument given use the ".*" pattern.
6256
6257Win32: When gvim.exe is started from a shortcut with the window style property
6258set to maximize Vim doesn't start with a maximized window. (Yasuhiro
6259Matsumoto) Open the window with the default size and don't call ShowWindow()
6260again when it's already visible. (Helmut Stiegler)
6261
6262gui_gtk.c used MAX, but it's undefined to avoid a conflict with system header
6263files.
6264
6265Win32: When closing a window from a mapping some pixels remain on the
6266statusline. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
6267
6268A column number in an errorformat that goes beyond the end of the line may
6269cause a crash.
6270
6271":throw 'test'" crashes Vim. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
6272
6273The file selector's scrollbar colors are not set after doing a ":hi Scrollbar
6274guifg=color". And the file selector's colors are not changed by the
6275colorscheme command. (David Harrison)
6276
6277Motif: When compiling with FEAT_FOOTER defined, the text area gets a few
6278pixels extra space on the right. Remove the special case in
6279gui_get_base_width(). (David Harrison)
6280
6281Using CTRL-R CTRL-P in Insert mode puts the '] mark in the wrong position.
6282(Helmut Stiegler)
6283
6284When 'formatoptions' includes "awct" a non-comment wasn't auto-formatted.
6285
6286Using a "--cmd" argument more than 10 times caused a crash.
6287
6288DEC style mouse support didn't work if the page field is not empty.
6289(Uribarri)
6290
6291"vim -l one two" did only set 'lisp' in the first file. Vi does it for every
6292file.
6293
6294":set tw<" didn't work. Was checking for '^' instead of '<'.
6295
6296In ":hardcopy > %.ps" the "%" was not expanded to the current filename.
6297
6298Made ":redraw" also update the Visual area.
6299
6300When a not implemented command, such as ":perl", has wrong arguments the less
6301important error was reported, giving the user the idea the command could work.
6302
6303On non-Unix systems autocommands for writing did not attempt a match with the
6304short file name, causing a pattern like "a/b" to fail.
6305
6306VMS: e_screenmode was not defined and a few other fixes for VMS. (Zoltan
6307Arpadffy)
6308
6309redraw_msg() depended on FEAT_ARABIC instead of FEAT_RIGHTLEFT. (Walter
6310Briscoe)
6311
6312Various changes for the PC Makefiles. (Walter Briscoe)
6313
6314Use _truename() instead of our own code to expand a file name into a full
6315path. (Walter Briscoe)
6316
6317Error in filetype check for /etc/modutils. (Lubomir Host)
6318
6319Cscope interface: allocated a buffer too small.
6320
6321Win16: remove a trailing backslash from a path when obtaining the permission
6322flags. (Vince Negri)
6323
6324When searching for tags with case ignored Vim could hang.
6325
6326When searching directories with a stopdir could get a crash. Did not
6327re-allocate enough memory. (Vince Negri)
6328
6329A user command may cause a crash. Don't use the command index when it's
6330negative. (Vince Negri)
6331
6332putenv() didn't work for MingW and Cygwin. (Dan Sharp)
6333
6334Many functions were common between os_msdos.c and os_win16.c. Use os_msdos.c
6335for compiling the Win16 version and remove the functions from os_win16.c.
6336(Vince Negri)
6337
6338For terminals that behave like an xterm but didn't have a name that is
6339recognized, the window title would not always be set.
6340
6341When syntax highlighting is off ":hardcopy" could still attempt printing
6342colors.
6343
6344Crash when using ":catch" without an argument. (Servatius Brandt)
6345
6346Win32: ":n #" doubled the backslashes.
6347
6348Fixed Arabic shaping for the command line. (Nadim Shaikli)
6349
6350Avoid splitting up a string displayed on the command line into individual
6351characters, it breaks Arabic shaping.
6352
6353Updated Cygwin and MingW makefiles to use more dependencies. (Dan Sharp)
6354
63552html.vim didn't work with 'nomagic' set.
6356
6357When a local argument list is used and doing ":only" Vim could crash later.
6358(Muraoka Taro)
6359
6360When using "%P" in 'statusline' and the fillchar is "-", a percentage of 3%
6361could result in "-3%". Also avoid changing a space inside a filename to the
6362fill character.
6363
6364MSwin: Handling of backslashes and double quotes for command line arguments
6365was not like what other applications do. (Walter Briscoe)
6366
6367Test32 sometimes didn't work, because test11.out was written as TEST11.OUT.
6368
6369Avoid pointer conversions warnings for Borland C 5.5 in dosinst.c and
6370uninstal.c.
6371
6372More improvements for Make_bc3.mak file. (Walter Briscoe)
6373
6374When ":syn sync linebreaks=1" is used, editing the first line caused a redraw
6375of the whole screen.
6376
6377Making translated messages didn't work, if_perl.xs wasn't found. (Vlad
6378Sandrini)
6379
6380Motif and Athena: moving Vim to the foreground didn't uniconify it. Use
6381XMapRaised() instead of XRaiseWindow(). (Srikanth Sankaran)
6382
6383When using ":ptag" in a window where 'scrollbind' is set the preview window
6384would also have 'scrollbind' set. Also reset 'foldcolumn' and 'diff'.
6385
6386Various commands that split a window took over 'scrollbind', which is hardly

9433 results in utf-8 bytes. (Perelyubskiy)
9434 Conversion from DBCS to UCS2 does not work when 'encoding' is not
9435 the active codepage.
9436Solution: Introduce enc_codepage and use it for conversion to 'encoding'
9437 (Glenn Maynard)
9438 Use MultiByteToWideChar() and WideCharToMultiByte() instead of
9439 iconv(). Should do most needed conversions without iconv.dll.

9804VERSION 6.3 *version-6.3*
9805
9806This section is about improvements made between version 6.2 and 6.3.
9807
9808This is mainly a bug-fix release. There are also a few new features.
9809The major number of new items is in the runtime files and translations.
9810
9811
9812Changed *changed-6.3*
9813-------
9814
9815The intro message also displays a note about sponsoring Vim, mixed randomly
9816with the message about helping children in Uganda.
9817
9818Included the translated menus, keymaps and tutors with the normal runtime
9819files. The separate "lang" archive now only contains translated messages.
9820
9821Made the translated menu file names a bit more consistent. Use "latin1" for
9822"iso_8859-1" and "iso_8859-15".
9823
9824Removed the "file_select.vim" script from the distribution. It's not more
9825useful than other scripts that can be downloaded from www.vim.org.
9826
9827The "runtime/doc/tags" file is now always in unix fileformat. On MS-Windows
9828it used to be dos fileformat, but ":helptags" generates a unix format file.
9829
9830
9831Added *added-6.3*
9832-----
9833
9834New commands:
9835 :cNfile go to last error in previous file
9836 :cpfile idem
9837 :changes print the change list
9838 :keepmarks following command keeps marks where they are
9839 :keepjumps following command keeps jumplist and marks
9840 :lockmarks following command keeps marks where they are
9841 :redrawstatus force a redraw of the status line(s)
9842

11179Problem: When recalling a search pattern from the history from a ":s,a/c,"
11180 command the '/' ends the search string. (JC van Winkel)
11181Solution: Store the separator character with the history entries. Escape
11182 characters when needed, replace the old separator with the new one.
11183 Also fixes that recalling a "/" search for a "?" command messes up
11184 trailing flags.

11189Problem: For NetBeans, instead of writing the file and sending an event
11190 about it, tell NetBeans to write the file.
11191Solution: Add the "save" command, "netbeansBuffer" command and
11192 "buttonRelease" event to the netbeans protocol. Updated the
11193 interface to version 2.2. (Gordon Prieur)
11194 Also: open a fold when the cursor has been positioned.
11195 Also: fix memory leak, free result of nb_quote().

11222Problem: Vim doesn't work perfectly well with NetBeans.
11223Solution: When NetBeans saves the file, reset the timestamp to avoid "file
11224 changed" warnings. Close a buffer in a proper way. Don't try
11225 giving a debug message with an invalid pointer. Send a
11226 newDotAndMark message when needed. Report a change by the "r"

Bram Moolenaar071d4272004-06-13 20:20:40 +000011278 abbreviation that starts where insertion started results in
11279 characters before the insertion to be deleted. (Xiangjiang Ma)

11287 deleted. (Kamil Burzynski)
11288 Using marker folding, a level 1 fold doesn't stop when it is
11289 followed by "{{{2", starting a level 2 fold.
11290Solution: Don't stop updating folds at the end of a change when the nesting
11291 level of folds is larger than the fold level.
11292 Correctly compute the number of folds that start at "{{{2".
11293 Also avoid a crash for a NULL pointer.

11590 Order of buttons is reversed for GTK 2.2.4. Don't always get
11591 focus back after handling a dialog.
11592Solution: Make buttons appear vertically when desired. Reverse the order in

11637Problem: If there are messages when exiting, on the console there is a
11638 hit-enter prompt while the message can be read; in the GUI the
11639 message may not be visible.
11640Solution: Use the hit-enter prompt when there is an error message from
11641 writing the viminfo file or autocommands, or when there is any
11642 output in the GUI and 'verbose' is set. Don't use a hit-enter
11643 prompt for the non-GUI version unless there is an error message.

11669 use of a zero character instead of a zero pointer, unused
11670 variable. Clearing allocated memory in a complicated way.
11671Solution: Remove the function prototypes from farsi.h. Remove the
11672 duplicated lines in keymap.h. Change getvcol() argument from NUL
11673 to NULL. Remove the "col" variable in regmatch(). Use
11674 lalloc_clear() instead of lalloc(). (Walter Briscoe)

13285Problem: Win32: When 'encoding' is a codepage then reading a utf-8 file
13286 only works when iconv is available. Writing a file in another
13287 codepage uses the wrong kind of conversion.

13627 nameless buffers, browsing for a name may cause the name being
13628 given to the wrong buffer or not stored properly. ":browse" only
13629 worked for one file.
13630Solution: Use ":confirm browse" for "save all".
13631 Pass buffer argument to setfname(). Restore "browse" flag and
13632 "forceit" after doing the work for one file.

13900
13901"dFxd;" deleted the character under the cursor, "d;" didn't remember the
13902exclusiveness of the motion.
13903
13904When using "set laststatus=2 cmdheight=2" in the .gvimrc you may only get one
13905line for the cmdline. (Christian Robinson) Invoke command_height() after the
13906GUI has started up.
13907
13908Gcc would warn "dereferencing type-punned pointer will break strict -aliasing
13909rules". Avoid using typecasts for variable pointers.

13922Problem: When using translated help files with non-ASCII latin1 characters
13923 in the first line the utf-8 detection is wrong.
13924Solution: Properly detect utf-8 characters. When a mix of encodings is
13925 detected continue with the next language and avoid a "no matches"
13926 error because of "got_int" being set. Add the directory name to
13927 the error message for a duplicate tag.

14060Problem: When the "to" part of a mapping starts with its "from" part,
14061 abbreviations for the same characters is not possible. For
14062 example, when <Space> is mapped to something that starts with a
14063 space, typing <Space> does not expand abbreviations.
14064Solution: Only disable expanding abbreviations when a mapping is not
14065 remapped, don't disable it when the RHS of a mapping starts with
14066 the LHS.
