| BUG FIXES |bug-fixes-7| |
| |
| ============================================================================== |
| INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES *incompatible-7* |
| |
| These changes are incompatible with previous releases. Check this list if you |
| run into a problem when upgrading from Vim 6.x to 7.0. |
| |
| A ":write file" command no longer resets the 'modified' flag of the buffer, |
| unless the '+' flag is in 'cpoptions' |cpo-+|. This was illogical, since the |
| buffer is still modified compared to the original file. And when undoing |
| all changes the file would actually be marked modified. It does mean that |
| ":quit" fails now. |
| |
| ":helpgrep" now uses a help window to display a match. |
| |
| In an argument list double quotes could be used to include spaces in a file |
| name. This caused a difference between ":edit" and ":next" for escaping |
| double quotes and it is incompatible with some versions of Vi. |
| Command Vim 6.x file name Vim 7.x file name ~ |
| :edit foo\"888 'foo"888' 'foo"888' |
| :next foo\"888 'foo888' 'foo"888' |
| :next a\"b c\"d 'ab cd' 'a"b' and 'c"d' |
| |
| In a |literal-string| a single quote can be doubled to get one. |
| ":echo 'a''b'" would result in "a b", but now that two quotes stand for one it |
| results in "a'b". |
| |
| |
| Minor incompatibilities: |
| |
| For filetype detection: For many types, instead of ~/.dir/filename use |
| */.dir/filename, so that it also works for other user's files. |
| |
| ":0verbose" now sets 'verbose' to zero instead of one. |
| |
| Removed the old and incomplete "VimBuddy" code. |
| |
| Buffers without a name report "No Name" instead of "No File". It was |
| confusing for buffers with a name and 'buftype' set to "nofile". |
| |
| When ":file xxx" is used in a buffer without a name, the alternate file name |
| isn't set. This avoids creating buffers without a name that are not useful. |
| |
| The "2html.vim" script now converts closed folds to HTML. This means the HTML |
| looks like its displayed, with the same folds open and closed. Use "zR" if no |
| folds should appear in the HTML. (partly by Carl Osterwisch) |
| Diff mode now is also converted as it is displayed. |
| |
| Win32: The effect of the <F10> key depended on 'winaltkeys'. Now it depends |
| on whether <F10> has been mapped or not. This allows mapping <F10> without |
| changing 'winaltkeys'. |
| |
| When 'octal' is in 'nrformats' and using CTRL-A on "08" it became "018", which |
| is illogical. Now it becomes "9". The leading zero(s) is(are) removed to |
| avoid the number becoming octal after incrementing "009" to "010". |
| |
| When 'encoding' is set to a Unicode encoding, the value for 'fileencodings' |
| now includes "default" before "latin1". This means that for files with 8-bit |
| encodings the default is to use the encoding specified by the environment, if |
| possible. Previously latin1 would always be used, which is wrong in a |
| non-latin1 environment, such as Russian. |
| |
| Previously Vim would exit when there are two windows, both of them displaying |
| a help file, and using ":quit". Now only the window is closed. |
| |
| ============================================================================== |
| NEW FEATURES *new-7* |
| |
| Vim script enhancements *new-vim-script* |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| In Vim scripts the following types have been added: |
| |
| List ordered list of items |List| |
| Dictionary associative array of items |Dictionary| |
| Funcref reference to a function |Funcref| |
| |
| Many functions and commands have been added to support the new types. |
| |
| The |string()| function can be used to get a string representation of a |
| variable. Works for Numbers, Strings and composites of them. Then |eval()| |
| can be used to turn the string back into the variable value. |
| |
| The |:let| command can now use ":let var += expr" like using ":let var = var + |
| expr". "-=" and ".=" works in a similar way. |
| |
| |
| KDE support *new-KDE* |
| ----------- |
| |
| Kvim is the KDE version of Vim. It uses the Qt toolkit. See |KVim|. |
| (Thomas Capricelli, Philippe Fremy, Mickael Marchand, Mark Westcott, et al.) |
| |
| |
| MzScheme interface *new-MzScheme* |
| ------------------ |
| |
| The MzScheme interpreter is supported. |MzScheme| |
| The |:mzscheme| command can be used to execute MzScheme commands. |
| The |:mzfile| command can be used to execute an MzScheme script file. |
| |
| |
| Printing multi-byte text *new-print-multi-byte* |
| ------------------ |
| |
| The |:hardcopy| command now supports printing multi-byte characters. |
| The 'printmbcharset' and 'printmbfont' options are used for this. |
| Also see |postscript-cjk-printing|. (Mike Williams) |
| |
| |
| Translated manual pages *new-manpage-trans* |
| ----------------------- |
| |
| The manual page of Vim and associated programs is now also available in |
| Italian (translated by Antonio Colombo). More languages will follow. |
| |
| The Unix Makefile installs the Italian manual pages in .../man/it/man1/. |
| |
| |
| Internal grep *new-vimgrep* |
| ------------- |
| |
| The ":vimgrep" command can be used to search for a pattern in a list of files. |
| This is like the ":grep" command, but no external program is used. Besides |
| better portability, handling of different file encodings and using multi-line |
| patterns, this also allows grepping in compressed and remote files. |
| |:vimgrep|. |

| New message translations: ~ |
| |
| The Ukranian messages are now also available in cp1251. |
| |
| |
| Others: ~ |
| |
| Mac: Add the selection type to the clipboard, so that Block, line and |
| character selections can be used between two Vims. (Eckehard Berns) |

| "yyp". |
| |
| Mac: GUI font selector. (Peter "Rain Dog" Cucka) |
| |
| GUI font selector for Motif. (Marcin Dalecki) |
| |
| Mnemonics for the Motif find/replace dialog. (Marcin Dalecki) |
| |
| Mac: better integration with Xcode. Post a fake mouse-up event after the odoc |
| event and the drag receive handler to work around a stall after Vim loads a |
| file. Fixed an off-by-one line number error. (Da Woon Jung) |
| |
| The netrw plugin now also supports viewing a directory, when "scp://" is used. |
| Deleting and renaming files is possible. (Charles Campbell) |
| |
| Added the t_SI and t_EI escape sequences for starting and ending Insert mode. |
| To be used to set the cursor shape to a bar or a block. No default values, |
| they are not supported by termcap/terminfo. |
| |
| Autocommands can be defined local to a buffer. This means they will also work |
| when the buffer does not have a name or no specific name. See |
| |autocmd-buflocal|. (Yakov Lerner) |
| |
| ============================================================================== |
| IMPROVEMENTS *improvements-7* |
| |
| ":helpgrep" accepts a language specifier after the pattern: "pat@it". |
| |
| Move the help for printing to a separate help file. It's quite a lot now. |
| |
| ":breakadd here" and ":breakdel here" can be used to set or delete a |
| breakpoint at the cursor. |
| |
| The tutor was updated to make it simpler to use and added text to explain a |
| few more important commands. Used ideas from Gabriel Zachmann. |
| |
| Unix: When libcall() fails obtain an error message with dlerror() and display |
| it. (Johannes Zellner) |
| |
| Added "nbsp" in 'listchars'. (David Blanchet) |
| |
| Added the "acwrite" value for the 'buftype' option. This is for a buffer that |
| doesn not have a name that refers to a file and is written with BufWriteCmd |
| autocommands. |
| |
| For lisp indenting and matching parenthesis: (Sergey Khorev) |
| - square brackets are recognized properly |
| - #\(, #\), #\[ and #\] are recognized as character literals |
| - Lisp line comments (delimited by semicolon) are recognized |
| |
| Added the "count" argument to match(), matchend() and matchstr(). (Ilya Sher) |
| |
| winnr() takes an optional "$" and "#" arguments. (Nikolai Weibull, Yegappan |
| Lakshmanan) |
| |
| Added 'n' flag to search(): don't move the cursor. (Nikolai Weibull) |
| |
| When uncompressing fails in the gzip plugin, give an error message but don't |
| delete the raw text. Helps if the file has a .gz extension but is not |
| actually compressed. (Andrew Pimlott) |
| |
| When C, C++ or IDL syntax is used, may additionally load doxygen syntax. |
| Also support setting the filetype to "cdoxygen" for C plus doxygen syntax. |
| (Michael Geddes) |
| |
| The ":registers" command now displays multi-byte characters properly. |
| |
| VMS: In the usage message mention that a slash can be used to make a flag |
| upper case. Add color support to the builtin vt320 terminal codes. |
| (Zoltan Arpadffy) |
| |
| For the '%' item in 'viminfo', allow a number to set a maximum for the number |
| of buffers. |
| |
| The 'statusline' option can be local to the window, so that each window can |
| have a different value. (partly by Yegappan Lakshmanan) |
| |
| When a file looks like a shell script, check for an "exec" command that starts |
| the tcl interpreter. (suggested by Alexios Zavras) |
| |
| Support conversion between utf-8 and latin9 (iso-8859-15) internally, so that |
| digraphs still work when iconv is not available. |
| |
| When a session file is loaded while editing an unnamed, empty buffer that |
| buffer is wiped out. Avoids that there is an unused buffer in the buffer |
| list. |
| |
| Win32: When libintl.dll supports bind_textdomain_codeset(), use it. |
| (NAKADAIRA Yukihiro) |
| |
| When foldtext() finds no text after removing the comment leader, use the |
| second line of the fold. Helps for C-style /* */ comments where the first |
| line is just "/*". |
| |
| When editing the same file from two systems (e.g., Unix and MS-Windows) there |
| mostly was no warning for an existing swap file, because the name of the |
| edited file differs (e.g., y:\dir\file vs /home/me/dir/file). Added a flag to |
| the swap file to indicate it is in the same directory as the edited file. The |
| used path then doesn't matter and the check for editing the same file is much |
| more reliable. |
| |
| Client-server communication now supports 'encoding'. When setting 'encoding' |
| in a Vim server to "utf-8", and using "vim --remote fname" in a console, |
| "fname" is converted from the console encoding to utf-8. Also allows Vims |
| with different 'encoding' settings to exchange messages. |
| |
| Internal: Changed ga_room into ga_maxlen, so that it doesn't need to be |
| incremented/decremented each time. |
| |
| Included a few improvements for Motif from Marcin Dalecki. Draw label |
| contents ourselves to make them handle fonts in a way configurable by Vim and |
| a bit less dependent on the X11 font management. |
| |
| When a register is empty it is not stored in the viminfo file. |
| |
| Removed the tcltags script, it's obsolete. |
| |
| ":redir @*>" and ":redir @+>" append to the clipboard. Better check for |
| invalid characters after the register name. |
| |
| ":let g:" lists global variables. |
| ":let b:" lists buffer-local variables. |
| ":let w:" lists window-local variables. |
| ":let v:" lists Vim variables. |
| |
| The stridx() and strridx() functions take a third argument, where to start |
| searching. (Yegappan Lakshmanan) |
| |
| ============================================================================== |
| COMPILE TIME CHANGES *compile-changes-7* |
| |
| Dropped the support for the BeOS and Amiga GUI. They were not maintained and |
| probably didn't work. If you want to work on this: get the Vim 6.x version |
| and merge it back in. |
| |
| Mac: "make" now creates the Vim.app directory and "make install" copies it to |
| its final destination. (Raf) |
| |
| Mac: Made it possible to compile with Motif, Athena or GTK without tricks and |
| still being able to use the MacRoman conversion. Added the os_mac_conv.c |
| file. |
| |
| ============================================================================== |
| BUG FIXES *bug-fixes-7* |
| |
| When using PostScript printing on MS-DOS the default 'printexpr' used "lpr" |
| instead of "copy". When 'printdevice' was empty the copy command did not |
| work. Use "LPT1" then. |
| |
| The GTK font dialog uses a font size zero when the font name doesn't include a |
| size. Use a default size of 10. |
| |
| This example in the documentation didn't work: |
| :e `=foo . ".c" ` |
| Skip over the expression in `=expr` when looking for comments, |, % and #. |
| |
| When ":helpgrep" doesn't find anything there is no error message. |
| |
| "L" and "H" did not take closed folds into account. |
| |
| Win32: The "-P title" argument stopped at the first title that matched, even |
| when it doesn't support MDI. |
| |
| Mac GUI: CTRL-^ and CTRL-@ did not work. |
| |
| "2daw" on "word." at the end of a line didn't include the preceding white |
| space. |
| |
| Win32: Using FindExecutable() doesn't work to find a program. Use |
| SearchPath() instead. For executable() use $PATHEXT when the program searched |
| for doesn't have an extension. |
| |
| When 'virtualedit' is set, moving the cursor up after appending a character |
| may move it to a different column. Was caused by auto-formatting moving the |
| cursor and not putting it back where it was. |
| |
| When indent was added automatically and then moving the cursor, the indent was |
| not deleted (like when pressing ESC). The "I" flag in 'cpoptions' can be used |
| to make it work the old way. |
| |
| When opening a command-line window, 'textwidth' gets set to 78 by the Vim |
| filetype plugin. Reset 'textwidth' to 0 to avoid lines are broken. |
| |
| After using cursor(line, col) moving up/down doesn't keep the same column. |
| |
| Win32: Borland C before 5.5 requires using ".u." for LowPart and HighPart |
| fields. (Walter Briscoe) |
| |
| On Sinix SYS_NMLN isn't always defined. Define it ourselves. (Cristiano De |
| Michele) |
| |
| Printing with PostScript may keep the printer waiting for more. Append a |
| CTRL-D to the printer output. (Mike Williams) |
| |
| When converting a string with a hex or octal number the leading '-' was |
| ignored. ":echo '-05' + 0" resulted in 5 instead of -5. |
| |
| Using "@:" to repeat a command line didn't work when it contains control |
| characters. |
| |
| When using file completion for a user command, it would not expand environment |
| variables like for a regular command with a file argument. |
| |
| 'cindent': When the argument of a #define looks like a C++ class the next line |
| is indented too much. |
| |
| When 'comments' includes multi-byte characters inserting the middle part and |
| alignment may go wrong. 'cindent' also suffers from this for right-aligned |
| items. |
| |
| The default for 'helplang' was "zh" for both "zh_cn" and "zh_tw". Now use |
| "cn" or "tw" as intended. |
| |
| When 'bin' is set and 'eol' is not set then line2byte() added the line break |
| after the last line while it's not there. |
| |
| Using foldlevel() in a WinEnter autocommand may not work. Noticed when |
| resizing the GUI shell upon startup. |
| |
| Python: Using buffer.append(f.readlines()) didn't work. Allow appending a |
| string with a trailing newline. The newline is ignored. |
| |
| When using the ":saveas f2" command for buffer "f1", the Buffers menu would |
| contain "f2" twice, one of them leading to "f1". Also trigger the BufFilePre |
| and BufFilePost events for the alternate buffer that gets the old name. |
| |
| strridx() did not work well when the needle is empty. (Ciaran McCreesh) |
| |
| GTK: Avoid a potential hang in gui_mch_wait_for_chars() when input arrives |
| just before it is invoked |
| |
| VMS: Occasionally CR characters were inserted in the file. Expansion of |
| environment variables was not correct. (Zoltan Arpadffy) |
| |
| UTF-8: When 'delcombine' is set "dw" only deleted the last combining character |
| from the first character of the word. |
| |
| When using ":sball" in an autocommand only the filetype in one buffer was |
| detected. Reset did_filetype in enter_buffer(). |
| |
| When using ":argdo" and the window already was at the first argument index, |
| but not actually editing it, the current buffer would be used instead. |
| |
| When ":next dir/*" includes many matches, adding the names to the argument |
| list may take an awful lot of time and can't be interrupted. Allow |
| interrupting this. |
| |
| When editing a file that was already loaded in a buffer, modelines were not |
| used. Now window-local options in the modeline are set. Buffer-local options |
| and global options remain unmodified. |
| |
| Win32: When 'encoding' is set to "utf-8" in the vimrc file, files from the |
| command line with non-ASCII characters are not used correctly. Recode the |
| file names when 'encoding' is set, using the Unicode command line. |
| |
| Win32 console: When the default for 'encoding' ends up to be "latin1", the |
| default value of 'isprint' was wrong. |
| |
| When an error message is given while waiting for a character (e.g., when an |
| xterm reports the number of colors), the hit-enter prompt overwrote the last |
| line. Don't reset msg_didout in normal_cmd() for K_IGNORE. |
| |
| Mac GUI: Shift-Tab didn't work. |
| |
| When defining tooltip text, don't translate terminal codes, since it's not |
| going to be used like a command. |
| |
| GTK 2: Check the tooltip text for valid utf-8 characters to avoid getting a |
| GTK error. Invalid characters may appear when 'encoding' is changed. |
| |
| GTK 2: Add a safety check for invalid utf-8 sequences, they can crash pango. |
| |
| Win32: When 'encoding' is changed while starting up, use the Unicode command |
| line to convert the file arguments to 'encoding'. Both for the GUI and the |
| console version. |
| |
| Win32 GUI: latin9 text (iso-8859-15) was not displayed correctly, because |
| there is no codepage for latin9. Do our own conversion from latin9 to UCS2. |
| |
| When two versions of GTK+ 2 are installed it was possible to use the header |
| files from one and the library from the other. Use GTK_LIBDIR to put the |
| directory for the library early in the link flags. |
| |
| With the GUI find/replace dialog a replace only worked if the pattern was |
| literal text. Now it works for any pattern. |
| |
| When 'equalalways' is set and 'eadirection' is "hor", ":quit" would still |
| cause equalizing window heights in the vertical direction. |
| |
| When ":emenu" is used in a startup script the command was put in the typeahead |
| buffer, causing a prompt for the crypt key to be messed up. |
| |
| Mac OS/X: The default for 'isprint' included characters 128-160, causes |
| problems for Terminal.app. |
| |
| When a syntax item with "containedin" is used, it may match in the start or |
| end of a region with a matchgroup, while this doesn't happen for a "contains" |
| argument. |
| |
| When a transparent syntax items matches in another item where the highlighting |
| has already stopped (because of a he= argument), the highlighting would come |

| When cscope is used to set the quickfix error list, it didn't get set if there |
| was only one match. (Sergey Khorev) |
| |
| When 'confirm' is set and using ":bdel" in a modified buffer, then selecting |
| "cancel", would still give an error message. |
| |
| The PopUp menu items that started Visual mode didn't work when not in Normal |
| mode. Switching between selecting a word and a line was not possible. |
| |
| Win32: The keypad decimal point always resulted in a '.', while on some |
| keyboards it's a ','. Use MapVirtualKey(VK_DECIMAL, 2). |
| |
| Removed unused function DisplayCompStringOpaque() from gui_w32.c |
| |
| In Visual mode there is not always an indication whether the line break is |
| selected or not. Highlight the character after the line when the line break |
| is included, e.g., after "v$o". |
| |
| GTK: The <F10> key can't be mapped, it selects the menu. Disable that with a |
| GTK setting and do select the menu when <F10> isn't mapped. (David Necas) |
| |
| After "Y" '[ and '] were not at start/end of the yanked text. |
| |
| When a telnet connection is dropped Vim preserves files and exits. While |
| doing that a SIGHUP may arrive and disturbe us, thus ignore it. (Scott |
| Anderson) Also postpone SIGHUP, SIGQUIT and SIGTERM until it's safe to |
| handle. Added handle_signal(). |
| |
| When using "set laststatus=2 cmdheight=2" in the .gvimrc you may only get one |
| line for the cmdline. (Christian Robinson) Invoke command_height() after the |
| GUI has started up. |
| |
| When completing a file name on the command line backslashes are required for |
| white space. Was only done for a space, not for a Tab. |
| |
| When configure could not find a terminal library, compiling continued for a |
| long time before reporting the problem. Added a configure check for tgetent() |
| being found in a library. |
| |
| When the cursor is on the first char of the last line a ":g/pat/s///" command |
| may cause the cursor to be displayed below the text. |
| |
| Win32: Editing a file with non-ASCII characters doesn't work when 'encoding' |
| is "utf-8". use _wfullpath() instead of _fullpath(). (Yu-sung Moon) |
| |
| When recovering the 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' were taken from the |
| original file instead of from the swapfile. When the file didn't exist, was |
| empty or the option was changed (e.g., with ":e ++fenc=cp123 file") it could |
| be wrong. Now store 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding' in the swapfile and use |
| the values when recovering. |
| |
| ":bufdo g/something/p" overwrites each last printed text line with the file |
| message for the next buffer. Temporarily clear 'shortmess' to avoid that. |
| |
| Win32: Cannot edit a file starting with # with --remote. Do escape % and # |
| when building the ":drop" command. |
| |
| A comment or | just after a expresion-backtick argument was not recognized. |
| E.g. in :e `="foo"`"comment. |
| |
| "(" does not stop at an empty sentence (single dot and white space) while ")" |
| does. Also breaks "das" on that dot. |
| |
| When doing "yy" with the cursor on a TAB the ruler could be wrong and "k" |
| moved the cursor to another column. |
| |
| When 'commentstring' is '"%s' and there is a double quote in the line a double |
| quote before the fold marker isn't removed in the text displayed for a closed |
| fold. |
| |
| In Visual mode, when 'bin' and 'eol' set, g CTRL-G counted the last line |
| break, resulting in "selected 202 of 201 bytes". |
| |
| Motif: fonts were not used for dialog components. (Marcin Dalecki) |
| |
| Motif: After using a toolbar button the keyboard focus would be on the toolbar |
| (Lesstif problem). (Marcin Dalecki) |
| |
| When using "y<C-V>`x" where mark x is in the first column, the last line was |
| not included. |
| |
| Not all test scripts work properly on MS-Windows when checked out from CVS. |
| Use a Vim command to fix all fileformats to dos before executing the tests. |
| |
| When using ":new" and the file fits in the window, lines could still be above |
| the window. Now remove empty lines instead of keeping the relative position. |
| |
| Cmdline completion didn't work after ":let var1 var<Tab>". |
| |
| When using ":startinsert" or ":startreplace" when already in Insert mode |
| (possible when using CTRL-R =), pressing Esc would directly restart Insert |
| mode. (Peter Winters) |
| |
| "2daw" didn't work at end of file if the last word is a single character. |
| |
| Completion for ":next a'<Tab>" put a backslash before single quote, but it was |
| not removed when editing a file. Now halve backslashes in save_patterns(). |
| Also fix expanding a file name with the shell that contains "\'". |
| |
| When doing "1,6d|put" only "fewer lines" was reported. Now a following "more |
| lines" overwrites the message. |
| |
| Configure could not handle "-Dfoo=long\ long" in the TCL config output. |
| |
| When searching backwards, using a pattern that matches a newline and uses \zs |
| after that, didn't find a match. Could also get a hang or end up in the right |
| column in the wrong line. |
| |
| When $LANG is "sl" for slovenian, the slovak menu was used, since "slovak" |
| starts with "sl". |
| |
| When 'paste' is set in the GUI the Paste toolbar button doesn't work. Clear |
| 'paste' when starting the GUI. |
| |
| A message about a wrong viminfo line included the trailing NL. |
