Check this list if you +run into a problem when upgrading from Vim 5.x to 6.0 + + +Cursor position in Visual mode *curpos-visual* +------------------------------ + +When going from one window to another window on the same buffer while in +Visual mode, the cursor position of the other window is adjusted to keep the +same Visual area. This can be used to set the start of the Visual area in one +window and the end in another. In vim 5.x the cursor position of the other +window would be used, which could be anywhere and was not very useful. + + +Substitute command Vi compatible *substitute-CR* +-------------------------------- + +The substitute string (the "to" part of the substitute command) has been made +Vi compatible. Previously a CTRL-V had a special meaning and could be used to +prevent a <CR> to insert a line break. This made it impossible to insert a +CTRL-V before a line break. Now a backslash is used to prevent a <CR> to +cause a line break. Since the number of backslashes is halved, it is still +possible to insert a line break at the end of the line. This now works just +like Vi, but it's not compatible with Vim versions before 6.0. + +When a ":s" command doesn't make any substitutions, it no longer sets the '[ +and '] marks. This is not related to Vi, since it doesn't have these marks. + + +Global option values introduced *new-global-values* +------------------------------- + +There are now global values for options which are local to a buffer or window. +Previously the local options were copied from one buffer to another. When +editing another file this could cause option values from a modeline to be used +for the wrong file. Now the global values are used when entering a buffer +that has not been used before. Also, when editing another buffer in a window, +the local window options are reset to their global values. The ":set" command +sets both the local and global values, this is still compatible. But a +modeline only sets the local value, this is not backwards compatible. + +":let &opt = val" now sets the local and global values, like ":set". New +commands have been added to set the global or local value: + :let &opt = val like ":set" + :let &g:opt = val like ":setglobal" + :let &l:opt = val like ":setlocal" + + +'fileencoding' changed *fileencoding-changed* +---------------------- + +'fileencoding' was used in Vim 5.x to set the encoding used inside all of Vim. +This was a bit strange, because it was local to a buffer and worked for all +buffers. It could never be different between buffers, because it changed the +way text in all buffers was interpreted. +It is now used for the encoding of the file related to the buffer. If you +still set 'fileencoding' it is likely to be overwritten by the detected +encoding from 'fileencodings', thus it is "mostly harmless". +The old FileEncoding autocommand now does the same as the new EncodingChanged +event. + + +Digraphs changed *digraphs-changed* +---------------- + +The default digraphs now correspond to RFC1345. This is very different from +what was used in Vim 5.x. |digraphs| + + +Filetype detection changed *filetypedetect-changed* +-------------------------- + +The filetype detection previously was using the "filetype" autocommand group. +This caused confusion with the FileType event name (case is ignored). The +group is now called "filetypedetect". It still works, but if the "filetype" +group is used the autocommands will not be removed by ":filetype off". + The support for 'runtimepath' has made the "myfiletypefile" and +"mysyntaxfile" mechanism obsolete. They are still used for backwards +compatibility. + +The connection between the FileType event and setting the 'syntax' option was +previously in the "syntax" autocommand group. That caused confusion with the +Syntax event name. The group is now called "syntaxset". + +The distributed syntax files no longer contain "syntax clear". That makes it +possible to include one in the other without tricks. The syntax is now +cleared when the 'syntax' option is set (by an autocommand added from +synload.vim). This makes the syntax cleared when the value of 'syntax' does +not correspond to a syntax file. Previously the existing highlighting was +kept. + + +Unlisted buffers introduced *new-unlisted-buffers* +--------------------------- + +There is now a difference between buffers which don't appear in the buffer +list and buffers which are really not in the buffer list. Commands like +":ls", ":bnext", ":blast" and the Buffers menu will skip buffers not in the +buffer list. |unlisted-buffer| +The 'buflisted' option can be used to make a buffer appear in the buffer list +or not. + +Several commands that previously added a buffer to the buffer list now create +an unlisted buffer. This means that a ":bnext" and ":ball" will not find these +files until they have actually been edited. For example, buffers used for the +alternative file by ":write file" and ":read file". + Other commands previously completely deleted a buffer and now only remove +the buffer from the buffer list. Commands relying on a buffer not to be +present might fail. For example, a ":bdelete" command in an autocommand that +relied on something following to fail (was used in the automatic tests). +|:bwipeout| can be used for the old meaning of ":bdelete". + +The BufDelete autocommand event is now triggered when a buffer is removed from +the buffer list. The BufCreate event is only triggered when a buffer is +created that is added to the buffer list, or when an existing buffer is added +to the buffer list. BufAdd is a new name for BufCreate. +The new BufNew event is for creating any buffer and BufWipeout for really +deleting a buffer. + +When doing Insert mode completion, only buffers in the buffer list are +scanned. Added the 'U' flag to 'complete' to do completion from unlisted +buffers. + +Unlisted buffers are not stored in a viminfo file. + + +CTRL-U in Command-line mode changed *CTRL-U-changed* +----------------------------------- + +Using CTRL-U when editing the command line cleared the whole line. Most +shells only delete the characters before the cursor. Made it work like that. +(Steve Wall) + +You can get the old behavior with CTRL-E CTRL-U: > + :cnoremap <C-U> <C-E><C-U> + + +Ctags gone *ctags-gone* +---------- + +Ctags is no longer part of the Vim distribution. It's now a grown-up program +by itself, it deserves to be distributed separately. +Ctags can be found here: http://ctags.sf.net/. + + +Documentation reorganized *documentation-6* +------------------------- + +The documentation has been reorganized, an item may not be where you found it +in Vim 5.x. +- The user manual was added, some items have been moved to it from the + reference manual. +- The quick reference is now in a separate file (so that it can be printed). + +The examples in the documentation were previously marked with a ">" in the +first column. This made it difficult to copy/paste them. There is now a +single ">" before the example and it ends at a "<" or a non-blank in the first +column. This also looks better without highlighting. + +'helpfile' is no longer used to find the help tags file. This allows a user +to add its own help files (e.g., for plugins). + + +Modeless selection and clipboard *modeless-and-clipboard* +-------------------------------- + +The modeless selection is used to select text when Visual mode can't be used, +for example when editing the command line or at the more prompt. +In Vim 5.x the modeless selection was always used. On MS-Windows this caused +the clipboard to be overwritten, with no way to avoid that. The modeless +selection now obeys the 'a' and 'A' flags in 'guioptions' and "autoselect" and +"autoselectml" in 'clipboard'. By default there is no automatic copy on +MS-Windows. Use the |c_CTRL-Y| command to manually copy the selection. + +To get the old behavior back, do this: > + + :set clipboard^=autoselectml guioptions+=A + + +Small incompatibilities *incomp-small-6* +----------------------- + +'backupdir', 'cdpath', 'directory', 'equalprg', 'errorfile', 'formatprg', +'grepprg', 'helpfile', 'makeef', 'makeprg', 'keywordprg', 'cscopeprg', +'viminfo' and 'runtimepath' can no longer be set from a modeline, for better +security. + +Removed '_' from the 'breakat' default: It's commonly used in keywords. + +The default for 'mousehide' is on, because this works well for most people. + +The Amiga binary is now always compiled with "big" features. The "big" binary +archive no longer exists. + +The items "[RO]", "[+]", "[help]", "[Preview]" and "[filetype]" in +'statusline' no longer have a leading space. + +Non-Unix systems: When expanding wildcards for the Vim arguments, don't use +'suffixes'. It now works as if the shell had expanded the arguments. + +The 'lisp', 'smartindent' and 'cindent' options are not switched off when +'paste' is set. The auto-indenting is disabled when 'paste' is set, but +manual indenting with "=" still works. + +When formatting with "=" uses 'cindent' or 'indentexpr' indenting, and there +is no change in indent, this is not counted as a change ('modified' isn't set +and there is nothing to undo). + +Report 'modified' as changed when 'fileencoding' or 'fileformat' was set. +Thus it reflects the possibility to abandon the buffer without losing changes. + +The "Save As" menu entry now edits the saved file. Most people expect it to +work like this. + +A buffer for a directory is no longer added to the Buffers menu. + +Renamed <Return> to <Enter>, since that's what it's called on most keyboards. +Thus it's now the hit-enter prompt instead of the hit-return prompt. +Can map <Enter> just like <CR> or <Return>. + +The default for the 'viminfo' option is now '20,"50,h when 'compatible' isn't +set. Most people will want to use it, including beginners, but it required +setting the option, which isn't that easy. + +After using ":colder" the newer error lists are overwritten. This makes it +possible to use ":grep" to browse in a tree-like way. Must use ":cnewer 99" +to get the old behavior. + +The patterns in 'errorformat' would sometimes ignore case (MS-Windows) and +sometimes not (Unix). Now case is always ignored. Add "\C" to the pattern to +match case. + +The 16 bit MS-DOS version is now compiled without the +listcmds feature +(buffer list manipulation commands). They are not often needed and this +executable needs to be smaller. + +'sessionoptions' now includes "curdir" by default. This means that restoring +a session will result in the current directory being restored, instead of +going to the directory where the session file is located. + +A session deleted all buffers, deleting all marks. Now keep the buffer list, +it shouldn't hurt for some existing buffers to remain present. +When the argument list is empty ":argdel *" caused an error message. + +No longer put the search pattern from a tag jump in the history. + +Use "SpecialKey" highlighting for unprintable characters instead of "NonText". +The idea is that unprintable text or any text that's displayed differently +from the characters in the file is using "SpecialKey", and "NonText" is used +for text that doesn't really exist in the file. + +Motif now uses the system default colors for the menu and scrollbar. Used to +be grey. It's still possible to set the colors with ":highlight" commands and +resources. + +Formatting text with "gq" breaks a paragraph at a non-empty blank line. +Previously the line would be removed, which wasn't very useful. + +":normal" does no longer hang when the argument ends in half a command. +Previously Vim would wait for more characters to be typed, without updating +the screen. Now it pretends an <Esc> was typed. + +Bitmaps for the toolbar are no longer searched for in "$VIM/bitmaps" but in +the "bitmaps" directories in 'runtimepath'. + +Now use the Cmdline-mode menus for the hit-enter prompt instead of the Normal +mode menus. This generally works better and allows using the "Copy" menu to +produce CTRL-Y to copy the modeless selection. + +Moved the font selection from the Window to the Edit menu, together with the +other settings. + +The default values for 'isfname' include more characters to make "gf" work +better. + +Changed the license for the documentation to the Open Publication License. +This seemed fair, considering the inclusion of parts of the Vim book, which is +also published under the OPL. The downside is that we can't force someone who +would sell copies of the manual to contribute to Uganda. + +After "ayy don't let ""yy or :let @" = val overwrite the "a register. +Use the unnamed register instead. + +MSDOS: A pattern "*.*" previously also matched a file name without a dot. +This was inconsistent with other versions. + +In Insert mode, CTRL-O CTRL-\ CTRL-N {cmd} remains in Normal mode. Previously +it would go back to Insert mode, thus confusing the meaning of CTRL-\ CTRL-N, +which is supposed to take us to Normal mode (especially in ":amenu"). + +Allow using ":" commands after an operator. Could be used to implement a new +movement command. Thus it no longer aborts a pending operator. + +For the Amiga the "-d {device}" argument was possible. When compiled with the +diff feature, this no longer works. Use "-dev {device}" instead. |-dev| + +Made the default mappings for <S-Insert> in Insert mode insert the text +literally, avoids that special characters like BS cause side effects. + +Using ":confirm" applied to the rest of the line. Now it applies only to the +command right after it. Thus ":confirm if x | edit | endif" no longer works, +use ":if x | confirm edit | endif". This was the original intention, that it +worked differently was a bug. + +============================================================================== +NEW FEATURES *new-6* + +Folding *new-folding* +------- + +Vim can now display a buffer with text folded. This allows overviewing the +structure of a file quickly. It is also possible to yank, delete and put +folded text, for example to move a function to another position. + +There is a whole bunch of new commands and options related to folding. +See |folding|. + + +Vertically split windows *new-vertsplit* +------------------------ + +Windows can also be split vertically. This makes it possible to have windows +side by side. One nice use for this is to compare two similar files (see +|new-diff-mode|). The 'scrollbind' option can be used to synchronize +scrolling. + +A vertical split can be created with the commands: + :vsplit or CTRL-W v or CTRL-W CTRL-V |:vsplit| + :vnew |:vnew| + :vertical {cmd} |:vertical| +The last one is a modifier, which has a meaning for any command that splits a +window. For example: > + :vertical stag main +Will vertically split the window and jump to the tag "main" in the new window. + +Moving from window to window horizontally can be done with the |CTRL-W_h| and +|CTRL-W_l| commands. The |CTRL-W_k| and |CTRL-W_j| commands have been changed +to jump to the window above or below the cursor position. + +The vertical and horizontal splits can be mixed as you like. Resizing windows +is easy when using the mouse, just position the pointer on a status line or +vertical separator and drag it. In the GUI a special mouse pointer shape +indicates where you can drag a status or separator line. + +To resize vertically split windows use the |CTRL-W_<| and |CTRL-W_>| commands. +To make a window the maximum width use the CTRL-W | command |CTRL-W_bar|. + +To force a new window to use the full width or height of the Vim window, +these two modifiers are available: + :topleft {cmd} New window appears at the top with full + width or at the left with full height. + :botright {cmd} New window appears at the bottom with full + width or at the right with full height. +This can be combined with ":vertical" to force a vertical split: > + :vert bot dsplit DEBUG +This will open a window at the far right, occupying the full height of the Vim +window, with the cursor on the first definition of "DEBUG". +The help window is opened at the top, like ":topleft" was used, if the current +window is fewer than 80 characters wide. + +A few options can be used to set the preferences for vertically split windows. +They work similarly to their existing horizontal equivalents: + horizontal vertical ~ + 'splitbelow' 'splitright' + 'winheight' 'winwidth' + 'winminheight' 'winminwidth' +It's possible to set 'winminwidth' to zero, so that temporarily unused windows +hardly take up space without closing them. + +The new 'eadirection' option tells where 'equalalways' applies: + :set eadirection=both both directions + :set eadirection=ver equalize window heights + :set eadirection=hor equalize windows widths +This can be used to avoid changing window sizes when you want to keep them. + +Since windows can become quite narrow with vertical splits, text lines will +often not fit. The 'sidescrolloff' has been added to keep some context left +and right of the cursor. The 'listchars' option has been extended with the +"precedes" item, to show a "<" for example, when there is text left off the +screen. (Utz-Uwe Haus) + +"-O" command line argument: Like "-o" but split windows vertically. (Scott +Urban) + +Added commands to move the current window to the very top (CTRL-W K), bottom +(CTRL-W J), left (CTRL-W H) and right (CTRL-W L). In the new position the +window uses the full width/height of the screen. + +When there is not enough room in the status line for both the file name and +the ruler, use up to half the width for the ruler. Useful for narrow windows. + + +Diff mode *new-diff-mode* +--------- + +In diff mode Vim shows the differences between two, three or four files. +Folding is used to hide the parts of the file that are equal. +Highlighting is used to show deleted and changed lines. +See |diff-mode|. + +An easy way to start in diff mode is to start Vim as "vimdiff file1 file2". +Added the vimdiff manpage. + +In a running Vim the |:diffsplit| command starts diff mode for the current +file and another file. The |:diffpatch| command starts diff mode using the +current file and a patch file. The |:diffthis| command starts diff mode for +the current window. + +Differences can be removed with the |:diffget| and |:diffput| commands. + +- The 'diff' option switches diff mode on in a window. +- The |:diffupdate| command refreshes the diffs. +- The 'diffopt' option changes how diffs are displayed. +- The 'diffexpr' option can be set how a diff is to be created. +- The 'patchexpr' option can be set how patch is applied to a file. +- Added the "diff" folding method. When opening a window for diff-mode, set + 'foldlevel' to zero and 'foldenable' on, to close the folds. +- Added the DiffAdd, DiffChange, DiffDelete and DiffText highlight groups to + specify the highlighting for differences. The defaults are ugly... +- Unix: make a vimdiff symbolic link for "make install". +- Removed the now obsolete "vimdiff.vim" script from the distribution. +- Added the "[c" and "]c" commands to move to the next/previous change in diff + mode. + + +Easy Vim: click-and-type *new-evim* +------------------------ + +eVim stands for "Easy Vim". This is a separate program, but can also be +started as "vim -y". + +This starts Vim with 'insertmode' set to allow click-and-type editing. The +$VIMRUNTIME/evim.vim script is used to add mappings and set options to be able +to do most things like Notepad. This is only for people who can't stand two +modes. + +eView does the same but in readonly mode. + +In the GUI a CTRL-C now only interrupts when busy with something, not when +waiting for a character. Allows using CTRL-C to copy text to the clipboard. + + +User manual *new-user-manual* +----------- + +The user manual has been added. It is organised around editing tasks. It +reads like a book, from start to end. It should allow beginners to start +learning Vim. It helps everybody to learn using the most useful Vim features. +It is much easier to read than the reference manual, but omits details. See +|user-manual|. + +The user manual includes parts of the Vim book by Steve Oualline |frombook|. +It is published under the OPL |manual-copyright|. + +When syntax highlighting is not enabled, the characters in the help file which +mark examples ('>' and '<') and header lines ('~') are replaced with a space. + +When closing the help window, the window layout is restored from before +opening it, if the window layout didn't change since then. +When opening the help window, put it at the top of the Vim window if the +current window is fewer than 80 characters and not full width. + + +Flexible indenting *new-indent-flex* +------------------ + +Automatic indenting is now possible for any language. It works with a Vim +script, which makes it very flexible to compute the indent. + +The ":filetype indent on" command enables using the provided indent scripts. +This is explained in the user manual: |30.3|. + +The 'indentexpr' option is evaluated to get the indent for a line. The +'indentkeys' option tells when to trigger re-indenting. Normally these +options are set from an indent script. Like Syntax files, indent scripts will +be created and maintained by many people. + + +Extended search patterns *new-searchpat* +------------------------ + +Added the possibility to match more than one line with a pattern. (partly by +Loic Grenie) +New items in a search pattern for multi-line matches: +\n match end-of-line, also in [] +\_[] match characters in range and end-of-line +\_x match character class and end-of-line +\_. match any character or end-of-line +\_^ match start-of-line, can be used anywhere in the regexp +\_$ match end-of-line, can be used anywhere in the regexp + +Various other new items in search patterns: +\c ignore case for the whole pattern +\C match case for the whole pattern +\m magic on for the following +\M magic off for the following +\v make following characters "very magic" +\V make following characters "very nomagic" + +\@! don't match atom before this. + Example: "foo\(bar\)\@!" matches "foo " but not "foobar". +\@= match atom, resulting in zero-width match + Example: "foo\(bar\)\@=" matches "foo" in "foobar". +\@<! don't match preceding atom before the current position +\@<= match preceding atom before the current position +\@> match preceding atom as a subexpression + +\& match only when branch before and after it match + +\%[] optionally match a list of atoms; "end\%[if]" matches "end", + "endi" and "endif" +\%(\) like \(\), but without creating a back-reference; there can be + any number of these, overcomes the limit of nine \( \) pairs +\%^ match start-of-file (Chase Tingley) +\%$ match end-of-file (Chase Tingley) +\%# Match with the cursor position. (Chase Tingley) +\? Just like "\=" but can't be used in a "?" command. + +\%23l match in line 23 +\%<23l match before line 23 +\%>23l match after line 23 +\%23c, \%<23c, \%>23c match in/before/after column 23 +\%23v, \%<23v, \%>23v match in/before/after virtual column 23 + + +For syntax items: +\z(...\) external reference match set (in region start pattern) +\z1 - \z9 external reference match use (in region skip or end pattern) + (Scott Bigham) + +\zs use position as start of match +\ze use position as end of match + +Removed limit of matching only up to 32767 times with *, \+, etc. + +Added support to match multibyte characters. (partly by Muraoka Taro) +Made "\<" and "\>" work for UTF-8. (Muraoka Taro) + + +UTF-8 support *new-utf-8* +------------- + +Vim can now edit files in UTF-8 encoding. Up to 31 bit characters can be +used, but only 16 bit characters are displayed. Up to two combining +characters are supported, they overprint the preceding character. +Double-wide characters are also supported. See |UTF-8|. + +UCS-2, UCS-4 and UTF-16 encodings are supported too, they are converted to +UTF-8 internally. There is also support for editing Unicode files in a Latin1 +environment. Other encodings are converted with iconv() or an external +converter specified with 'charconvert'. + +Many new items for Multi-byte support: +- Added 'encoding' option: specifies character encoding used inside Vim. It + can be any 8-bit encoding, some double-byte encodings or Unicode. + It is initialized from the environment when a supported value is found. +- Added 'fileencoding' and 'fileencodings': specify character coding in a + file, similar to 'fileformat' and 'fileformats'. + When 'encoding' is "utf-8" and 'fileencodings' is "utf-8,latin1" this will + automatically switch to latin1 if a file does not contain valid UTF-8. +- Added 'bomb' option and detection of a BOM at the start of a file. Can be + used with "ucs-bom" in 'fileencodings' to automatically detect a Unicode + file if it starts with a BOM. Especially useful on MS-Windows (NT and + 2000), which uses ucs-2le files with a BOM (e.g., when exporting the + registry). +- Added the 'termencoding' option: Specifies the encoding used for the + terminal. Useful to put Vim in utf-8 mode while in a non-Unicode locale: > + :let &termencoding = &encoding + :set encoding=utf-8 +- When 'viminfo' contains the 'c' flag, the viminfo file is converted from the + 'encoding' it was written with to the current 'encoding'. +- Added ":scriptencoding" command: convert lines in a sourced script to + 'encoding'. Useful for menu files. +- Added 'guifontwide' to specify a font for double-wide characters. +- Added Korean support for character class detection. Also fix cls() in + search.c. (Chong-Dae Park) +- Win32: Typing multibyte characters without IME. (Alexander Smishlajev) +- Win32 with Mingw: compile with iconv library. (Ron Aaron) +- Win32 with MSVC: dynamically load iconv.dll library. (Muraoka Taro) +- Make it possible to build a version with multibyte and iconv support with + Borland 5.5. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) +- Added 'delcombine' option: Delete combining character separately. (Ron + Aaron) +- The "xfontset" feature isn't required for "xim". These are now two + independent features. +- XIM: enable XIM when typing a language character (Insert mode, Search + pattern, "f" or "r" command). Disable XIM when typing a Normal mode + command. +- When the XIM is active, show "XIM" in the 'showmode' message. (Nam SungHyun) +- Support "CursorIM" for XIM. (Nam SungHyun) +- Added 'm' flag to 'formatoptions': When wrapping words, allow splitting at + each multibyte character, not only at a space. +- Made ":syntax keyword" work with multibyte characters. +- Added support for Unicode upper/lowercase flipping and comparing. (based on + patch by Raphael Finkel) + Let "~" on multibyte characters that have a third case ("title case") + switch between the three cases. (Raphael Finkel) + +Allow defining digraphs for multibyte characters. +Added RFC1345 digraphs for Unicode. +Most Normal mode commands that accept a character argument, like "r", "t" and +"f" now accept a digraph. The 'D' flag in 'cpoptions' disables this to remain +Vi compatible. + +Added Language mapping and 'keymap' to be able to type multibyte characters: +- Added the ":lmap" command and friends: Define mappings that are used when + typing characters in the language of the text. Also for "r", "t", etc. In + Insert and Command-line mode CTRL-^ switches the use of the mappings on/off. + CTRL-^ also toggles the use of an input method when no language mappings are + present. Allows switching the IM back on halfway typing. +- "<char-123>" argument to ":map", allows to specify the decimal, octal or + hexadecimal value of a character. +- Implemented the 'keymap' option: Load a keymap file. Uses ":lnoremap" to + define mappings for the keymap. The new ":loadkeymap" command is used in + the keymap file. +- Added 'k' flag in 'statusline': Value of "b:keymap_name" or 'keymap' when + it's being used. Uses "<lang>" when no keymap is loaded and ":lmap"s are + active. Show this text in the default statusline too. +- Added the 'iminsert' and 'imsearch' options: Specify use of langmap mappings + and Input Method with an option. (Muraoka Taro) + Added 'imcmdline' option: When set the input method is always enabled when + starting to edit a command line. Useful for a XIM that uses dead keys to + type accented characters. + Added 'imactivatekey' option to better control XIM. (Muraoka Taro) +- When typing a mapping that's not finished yet, display the last character + under the cursor in Insert mode and Command-line mode. Looks good for dead + characters. +- Made the 'langmap' option recognize multibyte characters. But mapping only + works for 8-bit characters. Helps when using UTF-8. +- Use a different cursor for when ":lmap" mappings are active. Can specify + two highlight groups for an item in 'guicursor'. By default "lCursor" and + "Cursor" are equal, the user must set a color he likes. + Use the cursor color for hangul input as well. (Sung-Hyun Nam) +- Show "(lang)" for 'showmode' when language mapping is enabled. +- UTF-8: Made "r" work with a ":lmap" that includes a composing character. + Also works for "f", which now works to find a character that includes a + composing character. + +Other multibyte character additions: +- Support double-byte single-width characters for euc-jp: Characters starting + with 0x8E. Added ScreenLines2[] to store the second byte. + + +Multi-language support *new-multi-lang* +---------------------- + +The messages used in Vim can be translated. Several translations are +available. This uses the gettext mechanism. It allows adding a translation +without recompiling Vim. |multi-lang| (partly by Marcin Dalecki) + +The translation files are in the src/po directory. The src/po/README.txt file +explains a few things about doing a translation. + +Menu translations are available as well. This uses the new |:menutranslate| +command. The translations are found in the runtime directory "lang". This +allows a user to add a translation. + +Added |:language| command to set the language (locale) for messages, time and +character type. This allows switching languages in Vim without changing the +locale outside of Vim. + +Made it possible to have vimtutor use different languages. (Eduardo Fernandez) +Spanish (Eduardo Fernandez), Italian (Antonio Colombo), Japanese (Yasuhiro +Matsumoto) and French (Adrien Beau) translations are included. +Added "vimtutor.bat": script to start Vim on a copy of the tutor file for +MS-Windows. (Dan Sharp) + +- Added v:lang variable to be able to get current language setting. + (Marcin Dalecki) Also v:lc_time and v:ctype. +- Make it possible to translate the dialogs used by the menus. Uses global + "menutrans_" variables. ":menutrans clear" deletes them. +- removed "broken locale" (Marcin Dalecki). +- Don't use color names in icons, use RGB values. The names could be + translated. +- Win32: Added global IME support (Muraoka) +- Win32: Added dynamic loading of IME support. +- ":messages" prints a message about who maintains the messages or the + translations. Useful to find out where to make a remark about a wrong + translation. +- --disable-nls argument for configure: Disable use of gettext(). (Sung-Hyun + Nam) +- Added NLS support for Win32 with the MingW compiler. (Eduardo Fernandez) +- When available, call bind_textdomain_codeset() to have gettext() translate + messages to 'encoding'. This requires GNU gettext 0.10.36 or later. +- Added gettext support for Win32. This means messages will be translated + when the locale is set and libintl.dll can be found. (Muraoka Taro) + Also made it work with MingW compiler. (Eduardo Fernandez) + Detect the language and set $LANG to get the appropriate translated messages + (if supported). Also use $LANG to select a language, v:lang is a very + different kind of name. +- Made gvimext.dll use translated messages, if possible. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + + +Plugin support *new-plugins* +-------------- + +To make it really easy to load a Vim script when starting Vim, the "plugin" +runtime directory can be used. All "*.vim" files in it will be automatically +loaded. For Unix, the directory "~/.vim/plugin" is used by default. The +'runtimepath' option can be set to look in other directories for plugins. +|load-plugins| |add-plugin| + +The |:runtime| command has been added to load one or more files in +'runtimepath'. + +Standard plugins: +netrw.vim - Edit files over a network |new-network-files| +gzip.vim - Edit compressed files +explorer.vim - Browse directories |new-file-browser| + +Added support for local help files. |add-local-help|. +When searching for help tags, all "doc/tags" files in 'runtimepath' are used. +Added the ":helptags" command: Generate a tags file for a help directory. +The first line of each help file is automagically added to the "LOCAL +ADDITIONS" section in doc/help.txt. + +Added the <unique> argument to ":map": only add a mapping when it wasn't +defined before. + +When displaying an option value with 'verbose' set will give a message about +where the option was last set. Very useful to find out which script did set +the value. + +The new |:scriptnames| command displays a list of all scripts that have been +sourced. + +GUI: For Athena, Motif and GTK look for a toolbar bitmap in the "bitmaps" +directories in 'runtimepath'. Allows adding your own bitmaps. + + +Filetype plugins *new-filetype-plugins* +----------------- + +A new group of files has been added to do settings for specific file types. +These can be options and mappings which are specifically used for one value of +'filetype'. + +The files are located in "$VIMRUNTIME/ftplugin". The 'runtimepath' option +makes it possible to use several sets of plugins: Your own, system-wide, +included in the Vim distribution, etc. + +To be able to make this work, several features were added: +- Added the "s:" variables, local to a script. Avoids name conflicts with + global variables. They can be used in the script and in functions, + autocommands and user commands defined in the script. They are kept between + invocations of the same script. |s:var| +- Added the global value for local options. This value is used when opening + a new buffer or editing another file. The option value specified in a + modeline or filetype setting is not carried over to another buffer. + ":set" sets both the local and the global value. + ":setlocal" sets the local option value only. + ":setglobal" sets or displays the global value for a local option. + ":setlocal name<" sets a local option to its global value. +- Added the buffer-local value for some global options: 'equalprg', 'makeprg', + 'errorformat', 'grepprg', 'path', 'dictionary', 'thesaurus', 'tags', + 'include' and 'define'. This allows setting a local value for these global + options, without making it incompatible. +- Added mappings and abbreviations local to a buffer: ":map <buffer>". +- In a mapping "<Leader>" can be used to get the value of the "mapleader" + variable. This simplifies mappings that use "mapleader". "<Leader>" + defaults to "\". "<LocalLeader>" does the same with "maplocalleader". This + is to be used for mappings local to a buffer. +- Added <SID> Script ID to define functions and mappings local to a script. +- Added <script> argument to ":noremap" and ":noremenu": Only remap + script-local mappings. Avoids that mappings from other scripts get in the + way, but does allow using mappings defined in the script. +- User commands can be local to a buffer: ":command -buffer". + +The new ":setfiletype" command is used in the filetype detection autocommands, +to avoid that 'filetype' is set twice. + + +File browser *new-file-browser* +------------ + +When editing a directory, the explorer plugin will list the files in the +directory. Pressing <Enter> on a file name edits that file. Pressing <Enter> +on a directory moves the browser to that directory. + +There are several other possibilities, such as opening a file in the preview +window, renaming files and deleting files. + + +Editing files over a network *new-network-files* +---------------------------- + +Files starting with scp://, rcp://, ftp:// and http:// are recognized as +remote files. An attempt is made to access these files with the indicated +method. For http:// only reading is possible, for the others writing is also +supported. Uses the netrw.vim script as a standard "plugin". |netrw| + +Made "gf" work on a URL. It no longer assumes the file is local on the +computer (mostly didn't work anyway, because the full path was required). +Adjusted test2 for this. + +Allow using a URL in 'path'. Makes ":find index.html" work. + +GTK: Allow dropping a http:// and ftp:// URL on Vim. The netrw plugin takes +care of downloading the file. (Mikael Berthe) + + +Window for command-line editing *new-cmdwin* +------------------------------- + +The Command-line window can be used to edit a command-line with Normal and +Insert mode commands. When it is opened it contains the history. This allows +copying parts of previous command lines. |cmdwin| + +The command-line window can be opened from the command-line with the key +specified by the 'cedit' option (like Nvi). It can also be opened directly +from Normal mode with "q:", "q/" and "q?". + +The 'cmdwinheight' is used to specify the initial height of the window. + +In Insert mode CTRL-X CTRL-V can be used to complete an Ex command line, like +it's done on the command-line. This is also useful for writing Vim scripts! + +Additionally, there is "improved Ex mode". Entered when Vim is started as +"exim" or "vim -E", and with the "gQ" command. Works like repeated use of +":", with full command-line editing and completion. (Ulf Carlsson) + + +Debugging mode *new-debug-mode* +-------------- + +In debugging mode sourced scripts and user functions can be executed line by +line. There are commands to step over a command or step into it. |debug-mode| + +Breakpoints can be set to run until a certain line in a script or user +function is executed. |:breakadd| + +Debugging can be started with ":debug {cmd}" to debug what happens when a +command executes. The |-D| argument can be used to debug while starting up. + + +Cursor in virtual position *new-virtedit* +-------------------------- + +Added the 'virtualedit' option: Allow positioning the cursor where there is no +actual character in Insert mode, Visual mode or always. (Matthias Kramm) +This is especially useful in Visual-block mode. It allows positioning a +corner of the area where there is no text character. (Many improvements by +Chase Tingley) + + +Debugger interface *new-debug-itf* +------------------ + +This was originally made to work with Sun Visual Workshop. (Gordon Prieur) +See |debugger.txt|, |sign.txt| and |workshop.txt|. + +Added the ":sign" command to define and place signs. They can be displayed +with two ASCII characters or an icon. The line after it can be highlighted. +Useful to display breakpoints and the current PC position. + +Added the :wsverb command to execute debugger commands. + +Added balloon stuff: 'balloondelay' and 'ballooneval' options. + +Added "icon=" argument for ":menu". Allows defining a specific icon for a +ToolBar item. + + +Communication between Vims *new-vim-server* +-------------------------- + +Added communication between two Vims. Makes it possible to send commands from +one Vim to another. Works for X-Windows and MS-Windows |clientserver|. + +Use "--remote" to have files be edited in an already running Vim. +Use "--remote-wait" to do the same and wait for the editing to finish. +Use "--remote-send" to send commands from one Vim to another. +Use "--remote-expr" to have an expression evaluated in another Vim. +Use "--serverlist" to list the currently available Vim servers. (X only) +There are also functions to communicate between the server and the client. +|remote_send()| |remote_expr()| + +(X-windows version implemented by Flemming Madsen, MS-Windows version by Paul +Moore) + +Added the command server name to the window title, so you can see which server +name belongs to which Vim. + +Removed the OleVim directory and SendToVim.exe and EditWithVim.exe from the +distribution. Can now use "gvim --remote" and "gvim --remote-send", which is +portable. + +GTK+: Support running Vim inside another window. Uses the --socketid argument +(Neil Bird) + + +Buffer type options *new-buftype* +------------------- + +The 'buftype' and 'bufhidden' options have been added. They can be set to +have different kinds of buffers. For example: +- 'buftype' = "quickfix": buffer with error list +- 'buftype' = "nofile" and 'bufhidden' = "delete": scratch buffer that will be + deleted as soon as there is no window displaying it. + +'bufhidden' can be used to overrule the 'hidden' option for one buffer. + +In combination with 'buflisted' and 'swapfile' this offers the possibility to +use various kinds of special buffers. See |special-buffers|. + + +Printing *new-printing* +-------- + +Included first implementation of the ":hardcopy" command for printing +to paper. For MS-Windows any installed printer can be used. For other +systems a PostScript file is generated, which can be printed with the +'printexpr' option. +(MS-Windows part by Vince Negri, Vipin Aravind, PostScript by Vince Negri and +Mike Williams) + +Made ":hardcopy" work with multibyte characters. (Muraoka Taro, Yasuhiro +Matsumoto) + +Added options to tune the way printing works: (Vince Negri) +- 'printoptions' defines various things. +- 'printheader' specifies the header format. Added "N" field to 'statusline' + for the page number. +- 'printfont' specifies the font name and attributes. +- 'printdevice' defines the default printer for ":hardcopy!". + + +Ports *ports-6* +----- + +Port to OS/390 Unix (Ralf Schandl) +- A lot of changes to handle EBCDIC encoding. +- Changed Ctrl('x') to Ctrl_x define. + +Included jsbmouse support. (Darren Garth) +Support for dec mouse in Unix. (Steve Wall) + +Port to 16-bit MS Windows (Windows 3.1x) (Vince Negri) + +Port to QNX. Supports the Photon GUI, mouse, etc. (Julian Kinraid) + +Allow cross-compiling the Win32 version with Make_ming.mak. (Ron Aaron) +Added Python support for compiling with Mingw. (Ron Aaron) + +Dos 32 bit: Added support the Windows clipboard. (David Kotchan) + +Win32: Dynamically load Perl and Python. Allows compiling Vim with these +interfaces and will try to find the DLLs at runtime. (Muraoka Taro) + +Compiling the Win32 GUI with Cygwin. Also compile vimrun, dosinst and +uninstall. (Gerfried) + +Mac: Make Vim compile with the free MPW compiler supplied by Apple. And +updates for CodeWarrior. (Axel Kielhorn) + +Added typecasts and ifdefs as a start to make Vim work on Win64 (George +Reilly) + + +Quickfix extended *quickfix-6* +----------------- + +Added the "error window". It contains all the errors of the current error +list. Pressing <Enter> in a line makes Vim jump to that line (in another +window). This makes it easy to navigate through the error list. +|quickfix-window|. + +- |:copen| opens the quickfix window. +- |:cclose| closes the quickfix window. +- |:cwindow| takes care that there is a quickfix window only when there are + recognized errors. (Dan Sharp) + +- Quickfix also knows "info", next to "warning" and "error" types. "%I" can be + used for the start of a multi-line informational message. (Tony Leneis) +- The "%p" argument can be used in 'errorformat' to get the column number from + a line where "^" points to the column. (Stefan Roemer) +- When using "%f" in 'errorformat' on a DOS/Windows system, also include "c:" + in the filename, even when using "%f:". + + +Operator modifiers *new-operator-mod* +------------------ + +Insert "v", "V" or CTRL-V between an operator and a motion command to force +the operator to work characterwise, linewise or blockwise. |o_v| + + +Search Path *new-search-path* +----------- + +Vim can search in a directory tree not only in downwards but also upwards. +Works for the 'path', 'cdpath' and 'tags' options. (Ralf Schandl) + +Also use "**" for 'tags' option. (Ralf Schandl) + +Added 'includeexpr', can be used to modify file name found by 'include' +option. +Also use 'includeexpr' for "gf" and "<cfile>" when the file can't be found +without modification. Useful for doing "gf" on the name after an include or +import statement. + +Added the 'cdpath' option: Locations to find a ":cd" argument. (Raf) + +Added the 'suffixesadd' option: Suffixes to be added to a file name when +searching for a file for the "gf", "[I", etc. commands. + + +Writing files improved *new-file-writing* +---------------------- + +Added the 'backupcopy' option: Select whether a file is to be copied or +renamed to make a backup file. Useful on Unix to speed up writing an ordinary +file. Useful on other systems to preserve file attributes and when editing a +file on a Unix filesystem. + +Added the 'autowriteall' option. Works like 'autowrite' but for more +commands. + +Added the 'backupskip' option: A list of file patterns to skip making a backup +file when it matches. The default for Unix includes "/tmp/*", this makes +"crontab -e" work. + +Added support for Access Control Lists (ACL) for FreeBSD and Win32. The ACL +is copied from the original file to the new file (or the backup if it's +copied). +ACL is also supported for AIX, Solaris and generic POSIX. (Tomas Ogren) +And on SGI. + + +Argument list *new-argument-list* +------------- + +The support for the argument list has been extended. It can now be +manipulated to contain the files you want it to contain. + +The argument list can now be local to a window. It is created with the +|:arglocal| command. The |:argglobal| command can be used to go back to the +global argument list. + +The |:argdo| command executes a command on all files in the argument list. + +File names can be added to the argument list with |:argadd|. File names can +be removed with |:argdelete|. + +"##" can be used like "#", it is replaced by all the names in the argument +list concatenated. Useful for ":grep foo ##". + +The |:argedit| adds a file to the argument list and edits it. Like ":argadd" +and then ":edit". + + +Restore a View *new-View* +-------------- + +The ":mkview" command writes a Vim script with the settings and mappings for +one window. When the created file is sourced, the view of the window is +restored. It's like ":mksession" for one window. +The View also contains the local argument list and manually created, opened +and closed folds. + +Added the ":loadview" command and the 'viewdir' option: Allows for saving and +restoring views of a file with simple commands. ":mkview 1" saves view 1 for +the current file, ":loadview 1" loads it again. Also allows quickly switching +between two views on one file. And saving and restoring manual folds and the +folding state. + +Added 'viewoptions' to specify how ":mkview" works. + +":mksession" now also works fine with vertical splits. It has been further +improved and restores the view of each window. It also works properly with +preview and quickfix windows. + +'sessionoptions' is used for ":mkview" as well. +Added "curdir" and "sesdir" to 'sessionoptions'. Allows selection of what +the current directory will be restored to. + +The session file now also contains the argument list(s). + + +Color schemes *new-color-schemes* +------------- + +Support for loading a color scheme. Added the ":colorscheme" command. +Automatically add menu entries for available schemes. +Should now properly reset the colors when 'background' or 't_Co' is changed. +":highlight clear" sets the default colors again. +":syntax reset" sets the syntax highlight colors back to the defaults. +For ":set bg&" guess the value. This allows a color scheme to switch back to +the default colors. +When syntax highlighting is switched on and a color scheme was defined, reload +the color scheme to define the colors. + + +Various new items *new-items-6* +----------------- + +Normal mode commands: ~ + +"gi" Jump to the ^ mark and start Insert mode. Also works when the + mark is just after the line. |gi| + +"g'm" and "g`m" + Jump to a mark without changing the jumplist. Now you can use + g`" to jump to the last known position in a file without side + effects. Also useful in mappings. + +[', [`, ]' and ]` + move the cursor to the next/previous lowercase mark. + +g_ Go to last non-blank in line. (Steve Wall) + + +Options: ~ + +'autoread' When detected that a file changed outside of Vim, + automatically read a buffer again when it's not changed. + It has a global and a local value. Use ":setlocal autoread<" + to go back to using the global value for 'autoread'. + +'debug' When set to "msg" it will print error messages that would + otherwise be omitted. Useful for debugging 'indentexpr' and + 'foldexpr'. + +'lispwords' List of words used for lisp indenting. It was previously hard + coded. Added a number of Lisp names to the default. + +'fold...' Many new options for folding. + +'modifiable' When off, it is impossible to make changes to a buffer. + The %m and %M items in 'statusline' show a '-'. + +'previewwindow' Set in the preview window. Used in a session file to mark a + window as the preview window. + +'printfont' +'printexpr' +'printheader' +'printdevice' +'printoptions' for ":hardcopy". + +'buflisted' Makes a buffer appear in the buffer list or not. + +Use "vim{version}:" for modelines, only to be executed when the version is +>= {version}. Also "vim>{version}", "vim<{version}" and "vim={version}". + + +Ex commands: ~ + +:sav[eas][!] {file} + Works like ":w file" and ":e #", but without loading the file + again and avoiding other side effects. |:saveas| + +:silent[!] {cmd} + Execute a command silently. Also don't use a delay that would + come after the message. And don't do 'showmatch'. + RISCOS: Removed that "!~cmd" didn't output anything, and + didn't wait for <Enter> afterwards. Can use ":silent !cmd" + now. +:menu <silent> Add a menu that won't echo Ex commands. +:map <silent> Add a mapping that won't echo Ex commands. + +:checktime Check for changed buffers. + +:verbose {cmd} Set 'verbose' for one command. + +:echomsg {expr} +:echoerr {expr} Like ":echo" but store the message in the history. (Mark + Waggoner) + +:grepadd Works just like ":grep" but adds to the current error list + instead of defining a new list. |:grepadd| + +:finish Finish sourcing a file. Can be used to skip the rest of a Vim + script. |:finish| + +:leftabove +:aboveleft Split left/above current window. + +:rightbelow +:belowright Split right/below current window. + +:first, :bfirst, :ptfirst, etc. + Alias for ":rewind". It's more logical compared to ":last". + +:enew Edit a new, unnamed buffer. This is needed, because ":edit" + re-edits the same file. (Wall) + +:quitall Same as ":qall". + +:match Define match highlighting local to a window. Allows + highlighting an item in the current window without interfering + with syntax highlighting. + +:menu enable +:menu disable Commands to enable/disable menu entries without removing them. + (Monish Shah) + +:windo Execute a command in all windows. +:bufdo Execute a command in all buffers. + +:wincmd Window (CTRL-W) command. Useful when a Normal mode command + can't be used (e.g., for a CursorHold autocommand). See + |CursorHold-example| for a nice application with it. + +:lcd and :lchdir + Set local directory for a window. (Benjie Chen) + +:hide {command} + Execute {command} with 'hidden' set. + +:emenu in Visual mode to execute a ":vmenu" entry. + +:popup Pop up a popup menu. + +:redraw Redraw the screen even when busy with a script or function. + +:hardcopy Print to paper. + +:compiler Load a Vim script to do settings for a specific compiler. + +:z# List numbered lines. (Bohdan Vlasyuk) + + +New marks: ~ + +'( and ') Begin or end of current sentence. Useful in Ex commands. +'{ and '} Begin or end of current paragraph. Useful in Ex commands. +'. Position of the last change in the current buffer. +'^ Position where Insert mode was stopped. + +Store the ^ and . marks in the viminfo file. Makes it possible to jump to the +last insert position or changed text. + + +New functions: ~ +argidx() Current index in argument list. +buflisted() Checks if the buffer exists and has 'buflisted' set. +cindent() Get indent according to 'cindent'. +eventhandler() Returns 1 when inside an event handler and interactive + commands can't be used. +executable() Checks if a program or batch script can be executed. +filewritable() Checks if a file can be written. (Ron Aaron) +foldclosed() Find out if there is a closed fold. (Johannes Zellner). +foldclosedend() Find the end of a closed fold. +foldlevel() Find out the foldlevel. (Johannes Zellner) +foreground() Move the GUI window to the foreground. +getchar() Get one character from the user. Can be used to define a + mapping that takes an argument. +getcharmod() Get last used key modifier. +getbufvar() gets the value of an option or local variable in a buffer (Ron + Aaron) +getfsize() Return the size of a file. +getwinvar() gets the value of an option or local variable in a window (Ron + Aaron) +globpath() Find matching files in a list of directories. +hasmapto() Detect if a mapping to a string is already present. +iconv() Convert a string from one encoding to another. +indent() gets the indent of a line (Ron Aaron) +inputdialog() Like input() but use a GUI dialog when possible. Currently + only works for Win32, Motif, Athena and GTK. + Use inputdialog() for the Edit/Settings/Text Width menu. Also + for the Help/Find.. and Toolbar FindHelp items. + (Win32 support by Thore B. Karlsen) + (Win16 support by Vince Negri) +inputsecret() Ask the user to type a string without showing the typed keys. + (Charles Campbell) +libcall() for Unix (Neil Bird, Johannes Zellner, Stephen Wall) +libcallnr() for Win32 and Unix +lispindent() Get indent according to 'lisp'. +mode() Return a string that indicates the current mode. +nextnonblank() Skip blank lines forwards. +prevnonblank() Skip blank lines backwards. Useful to for indent scripts. +resolve() MS-Windows: resolve a shortcut to the file it points to. + Unix: resolve a symbolic link. +search() Search for a pattern. +searchpair() Search for matching pair. Can be used in indent files to find + the "if" matching an endif. +setbufvar() sets an option or variable local to a buffer (Ron Aaron) +setwinvar() sets an option or variable local to a window (Ron Aaron) +stridx() Search for first occurrence of one string in another. +strridx() Search for last occurrence of one string in another. +tolower() Convert string to all-lowercase. +toupper() Convert string to all-uppercase. +type() Check the type of an expression. +wincol() window column of the cursor +winwidth() Width of a window. (Johannes Zellner) +winline() window line of the cursor + + +Added expansion of curly braces in variable and function names. This can be +used for variable names that include the value of an option. Or a primitive +form of arrays. (Vince Negri) + + +New autocommand events: ~ +BufWinEnter Triggered when a buffer is displayed in a window, after using + the modelines. Can be used to load a view. +BufWinLeave Triggered when a buffer is no longer in a window. Also + triggered when exiting Vim. Can be used to save views. +FileChangedRO Triggered before making the first change to a read-only file. + Can be used to check-out the file. (Scott Graham) +TermResponse Triggered when the terminal replies to the version-request. + The v:termresponse internal variable holds the result. Can be + used to react to the version of the terminal. (Ronald Schild) +FileReadCmd Triggered before reading a file. +BufReadCmd Triggered before reading a file into a buffer. +FileWriteCmd Triggered before writing a file. +BufWriteCmd Triggered before writing a buffer into a file. +FileAppendCmd Triggered before appending to a file. +FuncUndefined Triggered when a user function is not defined. (Ron Aaron) + +The autocommands for the *Cmd events read or write the file instead of normal +file read/write. Use this in netrw.vim to be able to edit files on a remote +system. (Charles Campbell) + + +New Syntax files: ~ + +bdf BDF font definition (Nikolai Weibull) +catalog SGML catalog (Johannes Zellner) +debchangelog Debian Changelog (Wichert Akkerman) +debcontrol Debian Control (Wichert Akkerman) +dot dot (Markus Mottl) +dsl DSSSL syntax (Johannes Zellner) +eterm Eterm configuration (Nikolai Weibull) +indent Indent profile (Nikolai Weibull) +lftp LFTP (Nikolai Weibull) +lynx Lynx config (Doug Kearns) +mush mush sourcecode (Bek Oberin) +natural Natural (Marko Leipert) +pilrc Pal resource compiler (Brian Schau) +plm PL/M (Philippe Coulonges) +povini Povray configuration (David Necas) +ratpoison Ratpoison config/command (Doug Kearns) +readline readline config (Nikolai Weibull) +screen Screen RC (Nikolai Weibull) +specman Specman (Or Freund) +sqlforms SQL*Forms (Austin Ziegler) +terminfo terminfo (Nikolai Weibull) +tidy Tidy configuration (Doug Kearns) +wget Wget configuration (Doug Kearns) + + +Updated many syntax files to work both with Vim 5.7 and 6.0. + +Interface to Ruby. (Shugo Maeda) +Support dynamic loading of the Ruby interface on MS-Windows. (Muraoka Taro) +Support this for Mingw too. (Benoit Cerrina) + +Win32: Added possibility to load TCL dynamically. (Muraoka Taro) +Also for Borland 5.5. (Dan Sharp) + +Win32: When editing a file that is a shortcut (*.lnk file), edit the file it +links to. Unless 'binary' is set, then edit the shortcut file itself. +(Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + +The ":command" command now accepts a "-bar" argument. This allows the user +command to be followed by "| command". + +The preview window is now also used by these commands: +- |:pedit| edits the specified file in the preview window +- |:psearch| searches for a word in included files, like |:ijump|, and + displays the found text in the preview window. +Added the CTRL-W P command: go to preview window. + +MS-DOS and MS-Windows also read the system-wide vimrc file $VIM/vimrc. Mostly +for NT systems with multiple users. + +A double-click of the mouse on a character that has a "%" match selects from +that character to the match. Similar to "v%". + +"-S session.vim" argument: Source a script file when starting up. Convenient +way to start Vim with a session file. + +Added "--cmd {command}" Vim argument to execute a command before a vimrc file +is loaded. (Vince Negri) + +Added the "-M" Vim argument: reset 'modifiable' and 'write', thus disallow +making changes and writing files. + +Added runtime/delmenu.vim. Source this to remove all menus and prepare for +loading new menus. Useful when changing 'langmenu'. + +Perl script to filter Perl error messages to quickfix usable format. (Joerg +Ziefle) + +Added runtime/macros/less.vim: Vim script to simulate less, but with syntax +highlighting. + +MS-Windows install program: (Jon Merz) +- The Win32 program can now create shortcuts on the desktop and install Vim in + the Start menu. +- Possibly remove old "Edit with Vim" entries. +- The Vim executable is never moved or $PATH changed. A small batch file is + created in a directory in $PATH. Fewer choices to be made. +- Detect already installed Vim versions and offer to uninstall them first. + +Improved the MS-Windows uninstal program. It now also deletes the entries in +the Start menu, icons from the desktop and the created batch files. (Jon Merz) +Also made it possible to delete only some of these. Also unregister gvim for +OLE. + +Generate a self-installing Vim package for MS-Windows. This uses NSIS. (Jon +Merz et al.) + +Added ":filetype detect". Try detecting the filetype again. Helps when +writing a new shell script, after adding "#!/bin/csh". + +Added ":augroup! name" to delete an autocommand group. Needed for the +client-server "--remote-wait". + +Add the Vim version number to the viminfo file, useful for debugging. + +============================================================================== +IMPROVEMENTS *improvements-6* + +Added the 'n' flag in 'cpoptions': When omitted text of wrapped lines is not +put between line numbers from 'number' option. Makes it a lot easier to read +wrapped lines. + +When there is a format error in a tags file, the byte position is reported so +that the error can be located. + +"gf" works in Visual mode: Use the selected text as the file name. (Chase +Tingley) + +Allow ambiguous mappings. Thus "aa" and "aaa" can both be mapped, the longest +matching one is used. Especially useful for ":lmap" and 'keymap'. + +Encryption: Ask the key to be typed twice when crypting the first time. +Otherwise a typo might cause the text to be lost forever. (Chase Tingley) + +The window title now has "VIM" on the end. The file name comes first, useful +in the taskbar. A "+" is added when the file is modified. "=" is added for +a read-only file. "-" is added for a file with 'modifiable' off. + +In Visual mode, mention the size of the selected area in the 'showcmd' +position. + +Added the "b:changedtick" variable. Incremented at each change, also for +undo. Can be used to take action only if the buffer has been changed. + +In the replacement string of a ":s" command "\=" can be used to replace with +the result of an expression. From this expression the submatch() function can +be used to access submatches. + +When doing ":qall" and there is a change in a buffer that is being edited in +another window, jump to that window, instead of editing that buffer in the +current window. + +Added the "++enc=" and "++ff=" arguments to file read/write commands to force +using the given 'encoding' or 'fileformat'. And added the "v:cmdarg" +variable, to be used for FileReadCmd autocommands that read/write the file +themselves. + +When reading stdin, first read the text in binary mode and then re-read it +with automatic selection of 'fileformat' and 'fileencoding'. This avoids +problems with not being able to rewind the file (e.g., when a line near the +end of the file ends in LF instead of CR-LF). +When reading text from stdin and the buffer is empty, don't mark it changed. +Allows exiting without trouble. + +Added an ID to many error messages. This will make it easier to find help for +a message. + +Insert mode: +- "CTRL-G j" and "CTRL-G k" can be used to insert in another line in the same + column. Useful for editing a table. +- Added Thesaurus completion with CTRL-X CTRL-T. (Vince Negri) +- Added the 'thesaurus' option, to use instead of 'dictionary' for thesaurus + completion. Added the 's' flag in 'complete'. +- Made CTRL-X CTRL-L in Insert mode use the 'complete' option. It now also + scans other loaded buffers for matching lines. +- CTRL-R now also works in Insert mode while doing completion with CTRL-X or + CTRL-N. (Neil Bird) +- When doing Insert mode completion, when completion is finished check for a + match with words from 'cinkeys' or 'indentkeys'. + +Performance: +- Made display updating more efficient. Insert/delete lines may be used for + all changes, also for undo/redo. +- The display is not redrawn when there is typeahead in Insert mode. Speeds + up CTRL-R a lot. +- Improved speed of screen output for 32 bit DOS version. (Vince Negri) +- When dragging with the mouse, there is a lookahead to skip mouse codes when + there is another one next. Makes dragging with the mouse a lot faster. +- Also a memory usage improvement: When calling u_save with a single line, + don't save it if the line was recently saved for the same undo already. +- When using a script that appends one character at a time, the amount of + allocated memory was growing steadily. Also when 'undolevels' is -1. + Caused by the line saved for "U" never to be freed. Now free an undo block + when it becomes empty. +- GUI and Dos32: Use a vertical scroll region, to make scrolling in a + vertically split window faster. No need to redraw the whole window. +- When scrolling isn't possible with terminal codes (e.g., for a vertically + split window) redraw from ScreenLines[]. That should be faster than going + through the lines with win_line(), especially when using syntax + highlighting. +- The Syntax menu is now pre-generated by a separate script. Makes loading + the menu 70% faster. This can halve the startup time of gvim. +- When doing ":help tag", don't open help.txt first, jump directly to the help + tag. It's faster and avoids an extra message. +- Win32: When a file name doesn't end in ".lnk" don't try resolving a + shortcut, it takes quite a bit of time. +- Don't update the mouse pointer shape while there are typeahead characters. +- Change META[] from a string into an array, avoids using strchr() on it. +- Don't clear the command line when adding characters, avoids that screen_fill + is called but doesn't do anything. + +Robustness: +- Unix: Check for running out of stack space when executing a regexp. Avoids + a nasty crash. Only works when the system supports running the signal + function on another stack. +- Disallow ":source <dirname>". On unix it's possible to read a directory, + does not make sense to use it as Vim commands. + +Security: +- When reading from or writing to a temporary file, check that it isn't a + symbolic link. Gives some protection against symlink attacks. +- When creating a backup file copy or a swap file, check for it already + existing to avoid a symlink attack. (Colin Phipps) +- Evaluating options which are an expression is done in a |sandbox|. If the + option was set by a modeline, it cannot cause damage. +- Use a secure way to generate temp file names: Create a private directory for + temp files. Used for Unix, MS-DOS and OS/2. +- 'makeef' can be empty, which means that an internally generated file name is + used. The old default was "/tmp/file", which is a security risk. + Writing 'makeef' in the current directory fails in a read-only directory and + causes trouble when using ":grep" on all files. Made the default empty for + all systems, so that a temp file is used. +- The command from a tags file is executed in the sandbox for better security. +- The Ruby, Tcl and Python interfaces cannot be used from the sandbox. They + might do dangerous things. Perl is still possible, but limited to the Safe + environment. (Donnie Smith) + +Syntax highlighting: +- Optimized the speed by caching the state stack all over the file, not just + the part being displayed. Required for folding. +- Added ":syntax sync fromstart": Always parse from the start of the file. +- Added the "display" argument for syntax items: use the item only when + displaying the result. Can make parsing faster for text that isn't going to + be displayed. +- When using CTRL-L, the cached states are deleted, to force parsing the text + again. +- Use elfhash algorithm for table of keywords. This should give a better + distribution and speedup keyword lookup. (Campbell) +- Also allow the "lc" leading context for skip and end patterns. (Scott + Bigham) +- Syntax items can have the "extend" argument to undo the effect of a + "keepend" argument of an item it is contained in. Makes it possible to have + some contained items extend a region while others don't. +- ":syntax clear" now deletes the b:current_syntax variable. That's logical, + since no syntax is defined after this command. +- Added ":syntax enable": switch on syntax highlighting without changing the + colors. This allows specifying the colors in the .vimrc file without the + need for a mysyntaxfile. +- Added ":syntax reset": reset the colors to their defaults. +- Added the "contains=TOP" and "contains=CONTAINED" arguments. Makes it + possible to define a transparent item that doesn't contain itself. +- Added a "containedin" argument to syntax items. Allows adding a contained + item to an existing item (e.g., to highlight a name in a comment). + +Modeless selection: +- When in the command-line window, use modeless selection in the other + windows. Makes it possible to copy visible text to the command-line window. +- Support modeless selection on the cmdline in a terminal. Previously it was + only possible for the GUI. +- Make double-right-click in modeless selection select a whole word. Single + right click doesn't use the word selection started by a double-left-click. + Makes it work like in Visual mode. +- The modeless selection no longer has an implied automatic copy to the + clipboard. It now obeys the 'a' and 'A' flags in 'guioptions' or + "autoselect" and "autoselectml" in 'clipboard'. +- Added the CTRL-Y command in Cmdline-mode to copy the modeless selection to + the clipboard. Also works at the hit-enter prompt and the more prompt. + Removed the mappings in runtime/mswin.vim for CTRL-Y and CTRL-Z in + cmdline-mode to be able to use CTRL-Y in the new way. + +Reduced the amount of stack space used by regmatch() to allow it to handle +complicated patterns on a longer text. + +'isfname' now includes '%' and '#'. Makes "vim dir\#file" work for MS-DOS. + +Added keypad special keys <kEnter>, <k0> - <k9>. When not mapped they behave +like the ASCII equivalent. (Ivan Wellesz and Vince Negri) +Recognize a few more xterm keys: <C-Right>, <C-Left>, <C-End>, <C-Home> + +Also trigger the BufUnload event when Vim is going to exit. Perhaps a script +needs to do some cleaning up. + +Expand expression in backticks: `={expr}`. Can be used where backtick +expansion is done. (Vince Negri) + +GUI: +- Added 'L' and 'R' flags in 'guioptions': Add a left or right scrollbar only + when there is a vertically split window. +- X11: When a color can't be allocated, use the nearest match from the + colormap. This avoids that black is used for many things. (Monish Shah) + Also do this for the menu and scrollbar, to avoid that they become black. +- Win32 and X11: Added 'mouseshape' option: Adjust the mouse pointer shape to + the current mode. (Vince Negri) +- Added the 'linespace' option: Insert a pixel line between lines. (Nam) +- Allow modeless selection (without moving the cursor) by keeping CTRL and + SHIFT pressed. (Ivan Wellesz) +- Motif: added toolbar. (Gordon Prieur) Also added tooltips. +- Athena: added toolbar and tooltips. (David Harrison -- based on Gordon + Prieur's work) +- Made the 'toolbar' option work for Athena and Motif. Can now switch between + text and icons on the fly. (David Harrison) +- Support menu separator lines for Athena. (David Harrison) +- Athena: Adjust the arrow pixmap used in a pullright menu to the size of the + font. (David Harrison) +- Win32: Added "c" flag to 'guifont' to be able to specify the charset. (Artem + Khodush) +- When no --enable-xim argument is given, automatically enable it when a X GUI + is used. Required for dead key support (and multibyte input). +- After a file selection dialog, check that the edited files were not changed + or deleted. The Win32 dialog allows deleting and renaming files. +- Motif and Athena: Added support for "editres". (Marcin Dalecki) +- Motif and Athena: Added "menuFont" to be able to specify a font or fontset + for the menus. Can also be set with the "Menu" highlight group. Useful + when the locale is different from 'encoding'. (David Harrison) + When FONTSET_ALWAYS is defined, always use a fontset for the menus. Should + avoid trouble with changing from a font to a fontset. (David Harrison) +- Highlighting and font for the tooltips can be specified with the "Tooltip" + highlight group. (David Harrison) +- The Cmdline-mode menus can be used at the more-prompt. This mostly works + fine, because they start with a CTRL-C. The "Copy" menu works to copy the + modeless selection. Allows copying the output of ":set all" or ":intro" + without auto-selection. +- When starting the GUI when there is no terminal connected to stdout and + stderr, display error messages in a dialog. Previously they wouldn't be + displayed at all. +- Allow setting 'browsedir' to the name of a directory, to be used for the + file dialog. (Dan Sharp) +- b:browsefilter and g:browsefilter can be set to the filters used for the + file dialog. Supported for Win32 and Motif GUI. (Dan Sharp) + +X11: +- Support for the clipboard selection as register "+. When exiting or + suspending copy the selection to cut buffer 0. Should allow copy/paste with + more applications in a X11-standard way. (Neil Bird) +- Use the X clipboard in any terminal, not just in an xterm. + Added "exclude:" in 'clipboard': Specify a pattern to match against terminal + names for which no connection should be made to the X server. The default + currently work for FreeBSD and Linux consoles. +- Added a few messages for when 'verbose' is non-zero to show what happens + when trying to connect to the X server. Should help when trying to find out + why startup is slow. + +GTK GUI: (partly by Marcin Dalecki) +- With some fonts the characters can be taller than ascent + descent. E.g., + "-misc-fixed-*-*-*-*-18-*-*-*-*-*-iso10646-1". Add one to the character + cell height. +- Implement "no" value for 'winaltkeys': don't use Alt-Key as a menu shortcut, + when 'wak' changed after creating the menus. +- Setting 'wak' after the GUI started works. +- recycle text GC's to reduce communication. +- Adjust icon size to window manager. +- Cleanup in font handling. +- Replace XQueryColor with GDK calls. +- Gnome support. Detects Gnome in configure and uses different widgets. + Otherwise it's much like GTK. (Andy Kahn) + It is disabled by default, because it causes a few problems. +- Removed the special code to fork first and then start the GUI. Now use + _exit() instead of exit(), this works fine without special tricks. +- Dialogs sometimes appeared a bit far away. Position the dialogs inside + the gvim window. (Brent Verner) +- When dropping a file on Vim, remove extra slashes from the start of the + path. Also shorten the file name if possible. + +Motif: (Marcin Dalecki) +- Made the dialog layout better. +- Added find and find/replace dialogs. +- For the menus, change "iso-8859" to "iso_8859", Linux appears to need this. +- Added icon to dialogs, like for GTK. +- Use XPM bitmaps for the icon when possible. Use the Solaris XpmP.h include + file when it's available. +- Change the shadow of the toolbar items to get a visual feedback of it being + pressed on non-LessTif. +- Use gadgets instead of windows for some items for speed. + +Command line completion: +- Complete environment variable names. (Mike Steed) +- For ":command", added a few completion methods: "mapping", "function", + "expression" and "environment". +- When a function doesn't take arguments, let completion add () instead of (. + +For MS-DOS, MS-Windows and OS/2: Expand %VAR% environment variables like $VAR. +(Walter Briscoe) + +Redirect messages to the clipboard ":redir @*" and to the unnamed register +":redir @"". (Wall) + +":let @/ = ''" clears the search pattern, instead of setting it to an empty +string. + +Expression evaluation: +- "? :" can be used like in C. +- col("$") returns the length of the cursor line plus one. (Stephen P. Wall) +- Optional extra argument for match(), matchend() and matchstr(): Offset to + start looking for a match. +- Made third argument to strpart() optional. (Paul Moore, Zdenek Sekera) +- exists() can also be used to check for Ex commands and defined autocommands. +- Added extra argument to input(): Default text. +- Also set "v:errmsg" when using ":silent! cmd". +- Added the v:prevcount variable: v:count for the previous command. +- Added "v:progname", name with which Vim was started. (Vince Negri) +- In the verbose message about returning from a function, also show the return + value. + +Cscope: +- Added the cscope_connection() function. (Andy Kahn) +- ":cscope kill -1" kills all cscope connections. (Andy Kahn) +- Added the 'cscopepathcomp' option. (Scott Hauck) +- Added ":scscope" command, split window and execute Cscope command. (Jason + Duell) + +VMS: +- Command line arguments are always uppercase. Interpret a "-X" argument as + "-x" and "-/X" as "-X". +- Set 'makeprg' and 'grepprg' to meaningful defaults. (Zoltan Arpadffy) +- Use the X-clipboard feature and the X command server. (Zoltan Arpadffy) + +Macintosh: (Dany St-Amant) +- Allow a tags file to have CR, CR-LF or LF line separator. (Axel Kielhorn) +- Carbonized (while keeping non Carbon code) + (Some work "stolen" from Ammon Skidmore) +- Improved the menu item index handling (should be faster) +- Runtime commands now handle / in file name (MacOS 9 version) +- Added ":winpos" support. +- Support using "~" in file names for home directory. + +Options: +- When using set += or ^= , check for items used twice. Duplicates are + removed. (Vince Negri) +- When setting an option that is a list of flags, remove duplicate flags. +- If possible, use getrlimit() to set 'maxmemtot' and 'maxmem'. (Pina) +- Added "alpha" to 'nrformats': increment or decrement an alphabetic character + with CTRL-A and CTRL-X. +- ":set opt&vi" sets an option to its Vi default, ":set opt&vim" to its Vim + default. Useful to set 'cpo' to its Vim default without knowing what flags + that includes. +- 'scrolloff' now also applies to a long, wrapped line that doesn't fit in the + window. +- Added more option settings to the default menus. +- Updated the option window with new options. Made it a bit easier to read. + +Internal changes: +- Split line pointers in text part and attributes part. Allows for future + change to make attribute more than one byte. +- Provide a qsort() function for systems that don't have it. +- Changed the big switch for Normal mode commands into a table. This cleans + up the code considerably and avoids trouble for some optimizing compilers. +- Assigned a negative value to special keys, to avoid them being mixed up with + Unicode characters. +- Global variables expand_context and expand_pattern were not supposed to be + global. Pass them to ExpandOne() and all functions called by it. +- No longer use the global reg_ic flag. It caused trouble and in a few places + it was not set. +- Removed the use of the stuff buffer for "*", "K", CTRL-], etc. Avoids + problem with autocommands. +- Moved some code from ex_docmd.c to ex_cmds2.c. The file was getting too + big. Also moved some code from screen.c to move.c. +- Don't include the CRC table for encryption, generate it. Saves quite a bit + of space in the source code. (Matthias Kramm) +- Renamed multibyte.c to mbyte.c to avoid a problem with 8.3 filesystems. +- Removed the GTK implementation of ":findhelp", it now uses the + ToolBar.FindHelp menu entry. +- Renamed mch_windexit() to mch_exit(), mch_init() to mch_early_init() and + mch_shellinit() to mch_init(). + +Highlighting: +- In a ":highlight" listing, show "xxx" with the highlight color. +- Added support for xterm with 88 or 256 colors. The right color numbers will + be used for the name used in a ":highlight" command. (Steve Wall) +- Added "default" argument for ":highlight". When included, the command is + ignored if highlighting for the group was already defined. + All syntax files now use ":hi default ..." to allow the user to specify + colors in his vimrc file. Also, the "if did_xxx_syntax_inits" is not needed + anymore. This greatly simplifies using non-default colors for a specific + language. +- Adjusted colortest.vim: Included colors on normal background and reduced the + size by using a while loop. (Rafael Garcia-Suarez) +- Added the "DarkYellow" color name. Just to make the list of standard colors + consistent, it's not really a nice color to use. + +When an xterm is in 8-bit mode this is detected by the code returned for +|t_RV|. All key codes are automatically converted to their 8-bit versions. + +The OPT_TCAP_QUERY in xterm patch level 141 and later is used to obtain the +actual key codes used and the number of colors for t_Co. Only when |t_RV| is +also used. + +":browse set" now also works in the console mode. ":browse edit" will give an +error message. + +":bdelete" and ":bunload" only report the number of deleted/unloaded buffers +when more than 'report'. The message was annoying when deleting a buffer in a +script. + +Jump list: +- The number of marks kept in the jumplist has been increased from 50 to 100. +- The jumplist is now stored in the viminfo file. CTRL-O can be used to jump + to positions from a previous edit session. +- When doing ":split" copy the jumplist to the new window. + +Also set the '[ and '] marks for the "~" and "r" commands. These marks are +now always set when making a change with a Normal mode command. + +Python interface: Allow setting the width of a vertically split window. (John +Cook) + +Added "=word" and "=~word" to 'cinkeys' (also used in 'indentkeys'). + +Added "j1" argument in 'cinoptions': indent {} inside () for Java. (Johannes +Zellner) +Added the "l" flag in 'cinoptions'. (Anduin Withers) +Added 'C', 'U', 'w' and 'm' flags to 'cinoptions'. (Servatius Brandt) + +When doing ":wall" or ":wqall" and a modified buffer doesn't have a name, +mention its buffer number in the error message. + +":function Name" lists the function with line numbers. Makes it easier to +find out where an error happened. + +In non-blockwise Visual mode, "r" replaces all selected characters with the +typed one, like in blockwise Visual mode. + +When editing the last file in the argument list in any way, allow exiting. +Previously this was only possible when getting to that file with ":next" or +":last". + +Added the '1' flag to 'formatoptions'. (Vit Stradal) +Added 'n' flag in 'formatoptions': format a numbered list. + +Swap file: +- When a swap file already exists, and the user selects "Delete" at the + ATTENTION prompt, use the same ".swp" swapfile, to avoid creating a ".swo" + file which won't always be found. +- When giving the ATTENTION message and the date of the file is newer than the + date of swap file, give a warning about this. +- Made the info for an existing swap file a bit shorter, so that it still fits + on a 24 line screen. +- It was possible to make a symlink with the name of a swap file, linking to a + file that doesn't exist. Vim would then silently use another file (if open + with O_EXCL refuses a symlink). Now check for a symlink to exist. Also do + another check for an existing swap file just before creating it to catch a + symlink attack. + +The g CTRL-G command also works in Visual mode and counts the number of words. +(Chase Tingley) + +Give an error message when using 'shell' and it's empty. + +Added the possibility to include "%s" in 'shellpipe'. + +Added "uhex" value for 'display': show non-printable characters as <xx>. +Show unprintable characters with NonText highlighting, also in the command +line. + +When asked to display the value of a hidden option, tell it's not supported. + +Win32: +- When dropping a shortcut on gvim (.lnk file) edit the target, not the + shortcut itself. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) +- Added C versions of the OpenWithVim and SendToVim programs. (Walter Briscoe) +- When 'shell' is "cmd" or "cmd.exe", set 'shellredir' to redirect stderr too. + Also check for the Unix shell names. +- When $HOMEDRIVE and $HOMEPATH are defined, use them to define $HOME. (Craig + Barkhouse) + +Win32 console version: +- Includes the user and system name in the ":version" message, when available. + It generates a pathdef.c file for this. (Jon Miner) +- Set the window icon to Vim's icon (only for Windows 2000). While executing + a shell command, modify the window title to show this. When exiting, + restore the cursor position too. (Craig Barkhouse) +- The Win32 console version can be compiled with OLE support. It can only + function as a client, not as an OLE server. + +Errorformat: +- Let "%p" in 'errorformat' (column of error indicated by a row of characters) + also accept a line of dots. +- Added "%v" item in 'errorformat': Virtual column number. (Dan Sharp) +- Added a default 'errorformat' value for VMS. (Jim Bush) + +The "p" command can now be used in Visual mode. It overwrites the selected +text with the contents of a register. + +Highlight the <> items in the intro message to make clear they are special. + +When using the "c" flag for ":substitute", allow typing "l" for replacing this +item and then stop: "last". + +When printing a verbose message about sourcing another file, print the line +number. + +When resizing the Vim window, don't use 'equalalways'. Avoids that making the +Vim window smaller makes split windows bigger. And it's what the docs say. + +When typing CTRL-D in Insert mode, just after an autoindent, then hitting CR +kept the remaining white space. Now made it work like BS: delete the +autoindent to avoid a blank non-empty line results. + +Added a GetHwnd() call to the OLE interface. (Vince Negri) + +Made ":normal" work in an event handler. Useful when dropping a file on Vim +and for CursorHold autocommands. + +For the MS-Windows version, don't change to the directory of the file when a +slash is used instead of a backslash. Explorer should always use a backslash, +the user can use a slash when typing the command. + +Timestamps: +- When a buffer was changed outside of Vim and regaining focus, give a dialog + to allow the user to reload the file. Now also for other GUIs than + MS-Windows. And also used in the console, when compiled with dialog + support. +- Inspect the file contents to find out if it really changed, ignore + situations where only the time stamp changed (e.g., checking the file out + from CVS). +- When checking the timestamp, first check if the file size changed, to avoid + a file compare then. Makes it quicker for large (log) files that are + appended to. +- Don't give a warning for a changed or deleted file when 'buftype' is set. +- No longer warn for a changed directory. This avoids that the file explorer + produces warnings. +- Checking timestamps is only done for buffers that are not hidden. These + will be checked when they become unhidden. +- When checking for a file being changed outside of Vim, also check if the + file permissions changed. When the file contents didn't change but the + permissions did, give a warning. +- Avoid checking too often, otherwise the dialog keeps popping up for a log + file that steadily grows. + +Mapping <M-A> when 'encoding' is "latin1" and then setting 'encoding' to +"utf-8" causes the first byte of a multibyte to be mapped. Can cause very +hard to find problems. Disallow mapping part of a multibyte character. + +For ":python" and ":tcl" accept an in-line script. (Johannes Zellner) +Also for ":ruby" and ":perl". (Benoit Cerrina) + +Made ":syn include" use 'runtimepath' when the file name is not a full path. + +When 'switchbuf' contains "split" and the current window is empty, don't split +the window. + +Unix: Catch SIGPWR to preserve files when the power is about to go down. + +Sniff interface: (Anton Leherbauer) +- fixed windows code, esp. the event handling stuff +- adaptations for sniff 4.x ($SNIFF_DIR4) +- support for adding sniff requests at runtime + +Support the notation <A-x> as an alias for <M-x>. This logical, since the Alt +key is used. + +":find" accepts a count, which means that the count'th match in 'path' is +used. + +":ls" and ":buffers" output shows modified/readonly/modifiable flag. When a +buffer is active show "a" instead of nothing. When a buffer isn't loaded +show nothing instead of "-". + +Unix install: +- When installing the tools, set absolute paths in tools scripts efm_perl.pl + and mve.awk. Avoids that the user has to edit these files. +- Install Icons for KDE when the directories exist and the icons do not exist + yet. + +Added has("win95"), to be able to distinguish between MS-Windows 95/98/ME and +NT/2000/XP in a Vim script. + +When a ":cd" command was typed, echo the new current directory. (Dan Sharp) + +When using ":winpos" before the GUI window has been opened, remember the +values until it is opened. + +In the ":version" output, add "/dyn" for features that are dynamically loaded. +This indicates the feature may not always work. + +On Windows NT it is possible that a directory is read-only, but a file can be +deleted. When making a backup by renaming the file and 'backupdir' doesn't +use the current directory, this causes the original file to be deleted, +without the possibility to create a new file. Give an extra error message +then to warn to user about this. + +Made CTRL-R CTRL-O at the command line work like CTRL-R CTRL-R, so that it's +consistent with Insert mode. + +============================================================================== +COMPILE TIME CHANGES *compile-changes-6* + +All generated files have been moved out of the "src" directory. This makes it +easy to see which files are not edited by hand. The files generated by +configure are now in the "src/auto" directory. For Unix, compiled object +files go in the objects directory. + +The source archive was over the 1.4M floppy limit. The archives are now split +up into two runtime and two source archives. Also provide a bzip2 compressed +archive that contains all the sources and runtime files. + +Added "reconfig" as a target for make. Useful when changing some of the +arguments that require flushing the cache, such as switching from GTK to +Motif. Adjusted the meaning of GUI_INC_LOC and GUI_LIB_LOC to be consistent +over different GUIs. + +Added src/README.txt to give an overview of the main parts of the source code. + +The Unix Makefile now fully supports using $(DESTDIR) to install to a specific +location. Replaces the manual setting of *ENDLOC variables. + +Added the possibility for a maintainer of a binary version to include his +e-mail address with the --with-compiledby configure argument. + +Included features are now grouped in "tiny", "small", "normal", "big" and +"huge". This replaces "min-features" and "max-features". Using "tiny" +disables multiple windows for a really small Vim. + +For the tiny version or when FEAT_WINDOWS is not defined: Firstwin and lastwin +are equal to curwin and don't use w_next and w_prev. + +Added the +listcmds feature. Can be used to compile without the Vim commands +that manipulate the buffer list and argument list (the buffer list itself is +still there, can't do without it). + +Added the +vreplace feature. It is disabled in the "small" version to avoid +that the 16 bit DOS version runs out of memory. + +Removed GTK+ support for versions older than 1.1.16. + +The configure checks for using PTYs have been improved. Code taken from a +recent version of screen. + +Added configure options to install Vim, Ex and View under another name (e.g., +vim6, ex6 and view6). + +Added "--with-global-runtime" configure argument. Allows specifying the +global directory used in the 'runtimepath' default. + +Made enabling the SNiFF+ interface possible with a configure argument. + +Configure now always checks /usr/local/lib for libraries and +/usr/local/include for include files. Helps finding the stuff for iconv() and +gettext(). + +Moved the command line history stuff into the +cmdline_hist feature, to +exclude the command line history from the tiny version. + +MS-Windows: Moved common functions from Win16 and Win32 to os_mswin.c. Avoids +having to change two files for one problem. (Vince Negri) + +Moved common code from gui_w16.c and gui_w32.c to gui_w48.c (Vince Negri) + +The jumplist is now a separate feature. It is disabled for the "small" +version (16 bit MS-DOS). + +Renamed all types ending in _t to end in _T. Avoids potential problems with +system types. + +Added a configure check for X11 header files that implicitly define the return +type to int. (Steve Wall) + +"make doslang" in the top directory makes an archive with the menu and .mo +files for Windows. This uses the files generated on Unix, these should work +on MS-Windows as well. + +Merged a large part of os_vms.c with os_unix.c. The code was duplicated in +the past which made maintenance more work. (Zoltan Arpadffy) + +Updated the Borland C version 5 Makefile: (Dan Sharp) +- Fixed the Perl build +- Added python and tcl builds +- Added dynamic perl and dynamic python builds +- Added uninstal.exe build +- Use "yes" and "no" for the options, like in Make_mvc.mak. + +Win32: Merged Make_gvc.mak and Make_ovc.mak into one file: Make_ivc.mak. It's +much smaller, many unnecessary text has been removed. (Walter Briscoe) +Added Make_dvc.mak to be able to debug exe generated with Make_mvc.mak in +MS-Devstudio. (Walter Briscoe) + +MS-Windows: The big gvim.exe, which includes OLE, now also includes +dynamically loaded Tcl, Perl and Python. This uses ActivePerl 5.6.1, +ActivePython 2.1.1 and ActiveTCL 8.3.3 + +Added AC_EXEEXT to configure.in, to check if the executable needs ".exe" for +Cygwin or MingW. Renamed SUFFIX to EXEEXT in Makefile. + +Win32: Load comdlg32.dll delayed for faster startup. Only when using VC 6. +(Vipin Aravind) + +Win32: When compiling with Borland, allow using IME. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + +Win32: Added Makefile for Borland 5 to compile gvimext.dll. (Yasuhiro +Matsumoto) + +============================================================================== +BUG FIXES *bug-fixes-6* + +When checking the command name for "gvim", "ex", etc. ignore case. Required +for systems where case is ignored in command names. + +Search pattern "[a-c-e]" also matched a 'd' and didn't match a '-'. + +When double-clicking in another window, wasn't recognized as double click, +because topline is different. Added set_mouse_topline(). + +The BROKEN_LOCALE check was broken. (Marcin Dalecki) + +When "t_Co" is set, the default colors remain the same, thus wrong. Reset the +colors after changing "t_Co". (Steve Wall) + +When exiting with ":wqall" the messages about writing files could overwrite +each other and be lost forever. + +When starting Vim with an extremely long file name (around 1024 characters) it +would crash. Added a few checks to avoid buffer overflows. + +CTRL-E could get stuck in a file with very long lines. + +":au syntax<Tab>" expanded event names while it should expand groups starting +with "syntax". + +When expanding a file name caused an error (e.g., for <amatch>) it was +produced even when inside an "if 0". + +'cindent' formatted C comments differently from what the 'comments' option +specified. (Steve Wall) + +Default for 'grepprg' didn't include the file name when only grepping in one +file. Now /dev/null has been added for Unix. + +Opening the option window twice caused trouble. Now the cursor goes to the +existing option window. + +":sview" and ":view" didn't set 'readonly' for an existing buffer. Now do set +'readonly', unless the buffer is also edited in another window. + +GTK GUI: When 'guioptions' excluded 'g', the more prompt caused the toolbar +and menubar to disappear and resize the window (which clears the text). +Now always grey-out the toplevel menus to avoid that the menubar changes size +or disappears. + +When re-using the current buffer for a new buffer, buffer-local variables were +not deleted. + +GUI: when 'scrolloff' is 0 dragging the mouse above the window didn't cause a +down scroll. Now pass on a mouse event with mouse_row set to -1. + +Win32: Console version didn't work on telnet, because of switching between two +console screens. Now use one console screen and save/restore the contents +when needed. (Craig Barkhouse) + +When reading a file the magic number for encryption was included in the file +length. (Antonio Colombo) + +The quickfix window contained leading whitespace and NULs for multi-line +messages. (David Harrison) + +When using cscope, redundant tags were removed. This caused a numbering +problem, because they were all listed. Don't remove redundant cscope tags. +(David Bustos). + +Cscope: Test for which matches are in the current buffer sometimes failed, +causing a jump to another match than selected. (David Bustos) + +Win32: Buffer overflow when adding a charset name in a font. + +'titlestring' and 'iconstring' were evaluating an expression in the current +context, which could be a user function, which is a problem for local +variables vs global variables. + +Win32 GUI: Mapping <M-F> didn't work. Now handle SHIFT and CTRL in +_OnSysChar(). + +Win32 GUI: (on no file), :vs<CR>:q<CR> left a trail of pixels down the middle. +Could also happen for the ruler. screen_puts() didn't clear the right char in +ScreenLines[] for the bold trick. + +Win32: ":%!sort|uniq" didn't work, because the input file name touches the +"|". Insert a space before the "|". + +OS/2: Expanding wildcards included non-existing files. Caused ":runtime" to +fail, which caused syntax highlighting to fail. + +Pasting a register containing CTRL-R on the command line could cause an +endless loop that can't be interrupted. Now it can be stopped with CTRL-C. + +When 'verbose' is set, a message for file read/write could overwrite the +previous message. +When 'verbose' is set, the header from ":select" was put after the last +message. Now start a new line. + +The hit-enter prompt reacted to the response of the t_RV string, causing +messages at startup to disappear. + +When t_Co was set to 1, colors were still used. Now only use color when t_Co +> 1. + +Listing functions with ":function" didn't quit when 'q' or ':' was typed at +the more prompt. + +Use mkstemp() instead of mktemp() when it's available, avoids a warning for +linking on FreeBSD. + +When doing Insert mode completion it's possible that b_sfname is NULL. Don't +give it to printf() for the "Scanning" message. + +":set runtimepath-=$VIMRUNTIME" didn't work, because expansion of wildcards +was done after trying to remove the string. Now for ":set opt+=val" and ":set +opt-=val" the expansion of wildcards is done before adding or removing "val". + +Using CTRL-V with the "r" command with a blockwise Visual selection inserted a +CTRL-V instead of getting a special character. + +Unix: Changed the order of libraries: Put -lXdmcp after -lX11 and -lSM -lICE +after -lXdmcp. Should fix link problem on HP-UX 10.20. + +Don't remove the last "-lm" from the link line. Vim may link but fail later +when the GUI starts. + +When the shell returns with an error when trying to expand wildcards, do +include the pattern when the "EW_NOTFOUND" flag was set. +When expanding wildcards with the shell fails, give a clear error message +instead of just "1 returned". + +Selecting a Visual block, with the start partly on a Tab, deleting it leaves +the cursor too far to the left. Causes "s" to work in the wrong position. + +Pound sign in normal.c caused trouble on some compilers. Use 0xA3 instead. + +Warning for changing a read-only file wasn't given when 'insertmode' was set. + +Win32: When 'shellxquote' is set to a double quote (e.g., using csh), ":!start +notepad file" doesn't work. Remove the double quotes added by 'shellxquote' +when using ":!start". (Pavol Juhas) + +The "<f-args>" argument of ":command" didn't accept Tabs for white space. +Also, don't add an empty argument when there are trailing blanks. + +":e test\\je" edited "test\je", but ":next test\\je" edited "testje". +Backslashes were removed one time too many for ":next". + +VMS: "gf" didn't work properly. Use vms_fixfilename() to translate the file +name. (Zoltan Arpadffy) + +After ":hi Normal ctermbg=black ctermfg=white" and suspending Vim not all +characters are redrawn with the right background. + +When doing "make test" without +eval or +windows feature, many tests failed. +Now have test1 generate a script to copy the correct output, so that a test +that doesn't work is skipped. + +On FreeBSD the Perl interface added "-lc" to the link command and Python added +"-pthread". These two don't work together, because the libc_r library should +be used. Removed "-lc" from Perl, it should not be needed. +Also: Add "-pthread" to $LIBS, so that the checks for functions is done with +libc_r. Sigaltstack() appears to be missing from libc_r. + +The Syntax sub-menus were getting too long, reorganized them and added another +level for some languages. + +Visual block "r"eplace didn't work well when a Tab is partly included. +(Matthias Kramm) + +When yanking a Visual block, where some lines end halfway the block, putting +the text somewhere else doesn't insert a block. Padd with spaces for missing +characters. Added "y_width" to struct yankreg. (Matthias Kramm) + +If a substitute string has a multibyte character after a backslash only the +first byte of it was skipped. (Muraoka Taro) + +Win32: Numeric keypad keys were missing from the builtin termcap entry. + +When a file was read-only ":wa!" didn't force it to be written. (Vince Negri) + +Amiga: A file name starting with a colon was considered absolute but it isn't. +Amiga: ":pwd" added a slash when in the root of a drive. + +Don't let 'ttymouse' default to "dec" when compiled with dec mouse support. +It breaks the gpm mouse (Linux console). + +The prototypes for the Perl interface didn't work for threaded Perl. Added a +sed command to remove the prototypes from proto/if_perl.pro and added them +manually to if_perl.xs. + +When ":w!" resets the 'readonly' option the title and status lines were not +updated. + +":args" showed the current file when the argument list was empty. Made this +work like Vi: display nothing. + +"99:<C-U>echo v:count" echoed "99" in Normal mode, but 0 in Visual mode. +Don't set v:count when executing a stuffed command. + +Amiga: Got a requester for "home:" because it's in the default runtime path. +Don't bring up a requester when searching for a file in 'path', sourcing the +.vimrc file or using ":runtime". + +Win16 and Win32: Considered a file "\path\file" absolute. Can cause the same +file to appear as two different buffers. + +Win32: Renaming a file to an empty string crashed Vim. Happened when using +explorer.vim and hitting ESC at the rename prompt. + +Win32: strftime() crashed when called with a "-1" value for the time. + +Win32 with Borland compiler: mch_FullName() didn't work, caused tag file not +to be found. + +Cscope sometimes jumped to the wrong tag. (David Bustos) + +OS/2: Could not find the tags file. mch_expand_wildcards() added another +slash to a directory name. + +When using ">>" the `] mark was not in the last column. + +When Vim was compiled without menu support, filetype.vim was still trying to +source the menu.vim script. (Rafael Garcia-Suarez) + +":ptag" added an item to the tag stack. + +Win32 IME: "gr" didn't use IME mode. + +In the "vim --help" message the term "options" was used for arguments. That's +confusing, call them "arguments". + +When there are two windows, and a BufUnload autocommand for closing window #1 +closed window #2, Vim would crash. + +When there is a preview window and only one other window, ":q" wouldn't exit. + +In Insert mode, when cancelling a digraph with ESC, the '?' wasn't removed. + +On Unix glob(".*") returned "." and "..", on Windows it didn't. On Windows +glob("*") also returned files starting with a dot. Made this work like Unix +on all systems. + +Win32: Removed old code to open a console. Vimrun is now used and works fine. + +Compute the room needed by the intro message accurately, so that it also fits +on a 25 line console. (Craig Barkhouse) + +":ptnext" was broken. Now remember the last tag used in the preview window +separately from the tagstack. + +Didn't check for "-display" being the last argument. (Wichert Akkerman) + +GTK GUI: When starting "gvim" under some conditions there would be an X error. +Don't replace the error handler when creating the xterm clipboard. (Wichert +Akkerman) + +Adding a space after a help tag caused the tag not to be found. E.g., ":he +autoindent ". + +Was trying to expand a URL into a full path name. On Windows this resulted in +the current directory to be prepended to the URL. Added vim_isAbsName() and +vim_FullName() to avoid that various machine specific functions do it +differently. + +":n *.c" ":cd .." ":n" didn't use the original directory of the file. Vi only +does it for the current file (looks like a bug). Now remember the buffer used +for the entry in the argument list and use its name (adjusted when doing +":cd"), unless it's deleted. + +When inserting a special key as its name ("<F8>" as four characters) after +moving around in Insert mode, undo didn't work properly. + +Motif GUI: When using the right mouse button, for some people gvim froze for +a couple of seconds (Motif 1.2?). This doesn't happen when there is no Popup +menu. Solved by only creating a popup menu when 'mousemodel' is "popup" or +"popup_setpos". (David Harrison) + +Motif: When adding many menu items, the "Help" menu disappeared but the +menubar didn't wrap. Now manually set the menubar height. + +When using <BS> in Insert mode to remove a line break, or using "J" to join +lines, the cursor could end up halfway a multibyte character. (Muraoka Taro) + +Removed defining SVR4 in configure. It causes problems for some X header +files and doesn't appear to be used anywhere. + +When 'wildignore' is used, 'ignorecase' for a tag match was not working. + +When 'wildignore' contains "*~" it was impossible to edit a file ending in a +"~". Now don't recognize a file ending in "~" as containing wildcards. + +Disabled the mouse code for OS/2. It was not really used. + +":mksession" always used the full path name for a buffer, also when the short +name could be used. +":mkvimrc" and ":mksession" didn't save 'wildchar' and 'pastetoggle' in such a +way that they would be restored. Now use the key name if possible, this is +portable. + +After recovering a file and abandoning it, an ":edit" command didn't give the +ATTENTION prompt again. Would be useful to be able to delete the file in an +easy way. Reset the BF_RECOVERED flag when unloading the buffer. + +histdel() could match or ignore case, depending on what happened before it. +Now always match case. + +When a window size was specified when splitting a window, it would still get +the size from 'winheight' or 'winwidth' if it's larger. + +When using "append" or "insert" inside a function definition, a line starting +with "function" or "endfunction" caused confusion. Now recognize the commands +and skip lines until a ".". + +At the end of any function or sourced file need_wait_return could be reset, +causing messages to disappear when redrawing. + +When in a while loop the line number for error messages stayed fixed. Now the +line number is remembered in the while loop. + +"cd c:/" didn't work on MS-DOS. mch_isdir() removed a trailing slash. + +MS-Windows: getftime() didn't work when a directory had a trailing slash or +backslash. Didn't show the time in the explorer because of this. + +When doing wildcard completion, a directory "a/" sorted after "a-b". Now +recognize path separators when sorting files. + +Non-Unix systems: When editing "c:/dir/../file" and "c:/file" they were +created as different buffers, although it's the same file. Expand to a full +file name also when an absolute name contains "..". + +"g&" didn't repeat the last substitute properly. + +When 'clipboard' was set to "unnamed", a "Y" command would not write to "0. +Now make a copy of register 0 to the clipboard register. + +When the search pattern matches in many ways, it could not always be +interrupted with a CTRL-C. And CTRL-C would have to be hit once for every +line when 'hlsearch' is on. +When 'incsearch' is on and interrupting the search for a match, don't abandon +the command line. + +When turning a directory name into a full path, e.g., with fnamemodify(), +sometimes a slash was added. Make this consistent: Don't add a slash. + +When a file name contains a "!", using it in a shell command will cause +trouble: ":!cat %". Escape the "!" to avoid that. Escape it another time +when 'shell' contains "sh". + +Completing a file name that has a tail that starts with a "~" didn't work: +":e view/~<Tab>". + +Using a ":command" argument that contains < and > but not for a special +argument was not skipped properly. + +The DOS install program: On Win2000 the check for a vim.exe or gvim.exe in +$PATH didn't work, it always found it in the current directory. +Rename the vim.exe in the current dir to avoid this. (Walter Briscoe) + +In the MS-DOS/Windows install program, use %VIM% instead of an absolute path, +so that moving Vim requires only one change in the batch file. + +Mac: mch_FullName() changed the "fname" argument and didn't always initialize +the buffer. + +MS-DOS: mch_FullName() didn't fix forward/backward slashes in an absolute file +name. + +"echo expand("%:p:h")" with an empty file name removed one directory name on +MS-DOS. For Unix, when the file name is a directory, the directory name was +removed. Now make it consistent: "%:p" adds a path separator for all systems, +but no path separator is added in other situations. + +Unix: When checking for a CTRL-C (could happen any time) and there is an X +event (e.g., clipboard updated) and there is typeahead, Vim would hang until a +character was typed. + +MS-DOS, MS-Windows and Amiga: expanding "$ENV/foo" when $ENV ends in a colon, +had the slash removed. + +":he \^=" gave an error for using \_. ":he ^=" didn't find tag :set^=. Even +"he :set^=" didn't find it. + +A tags file name "D:/tags" was used as file "tags" in "D:". That doesn't work +when the current path for D: isn't the root of the drive. + +Removed calls to XtInitializeWidgetClass(), they shouldn't be necessary. + +When using a dtterm or various other color terminals, and the Normal group has +been set to use a different background color, the background wouldn't always +be displayed with that color. Added check for "ut" termcap entry: If it's +missing, clearing the screen won't give us the current background color. Need +to draw each character instead. Vim now also works when the "cl" (clear +screen) termcap entry is missing. + +When repeating a "/" search command with a line offset, the "n" did use the +offset but didn't make the motion linewise. Made "d/pat/+2" and "dn" do the +same. + +Win32: Trying to use ":tearoff" for a menu that doesn't exist caused a crash. + +OpenPTY() didn't work on Sequent. Add a configure check for getpseudotty(). + +C-indenting: Indented a line starting with ")" with the matching "(", but not +a line starting with "x)" looks strange. Also compute the indent for aligning +with items inside the () and use the lowest indent. + +MS-DOS and Windows: ":n *.vim" also matched files ending in "~". +Moved mch_expandpath() from os_win16.c and os_msdos.c to misc1.c, they are +equal. + +Macintosh: (Dany St-Amant) +- In Vi-compatible mode didn't read files with CR line separators. +- Fixed a bug in the handling of Activate/Deactivate Event +- Fixed a bug in gui_mch_dialog (using wrong pointer) + +Multibyte GDK XIM: While composing a multibyte-word, if user presses a +mouse button, then the word is removed. It should remain and composing end. +(Sung-Hyun Nam) + +MS-DOS, MS-Windows and OS/2: When reading from stdin, automatic CR-LF +conversion by the C library got in the way of detecting a "dos" 'fileformat'. + +When 'smartcase' is set, patterns with "\S" would also make 'ignorecase' +reset. + +When clicking the mouse in a column larger than 222, it moved to the first +column. Can't encode a larger number in a character. Now limit the number to +222, don't jump back to the first column. + +GUI: In some versions CSI would cause trouble, either when typed directly or +when part of a multibyte sequence. + +When using multibyte characters in a ":normal" command, a trailing byte that +is CSI or K_SPECIAL caused problems. + +Wildmenu didn't handle multibyte characters. + +":sleep 10" could not be interrupted on Windows, while "gs" could. Made them +both work the same. + +Unix: When waiting for a character is interrupted by an X-windows event (e.g., +to obtain the contents of the selection), the wait time would not be honored. +A message could be overwritten quickly. Now compute the remaining waiting +time. + +Windows: Completing "\\share\c$\S" inserted a backslash before the $ and then +the name is invalid. Don't insert the backslash. + +When doing an auto-write before ":make", IObuff was overwritten and the wrong +text displayed later. + +On the Mac the directories "c:/tmp" and "c:/temp" were used in the defaults +for 'backupdir' and 'directory', they don't exist. + +The check for a new file not to be on an MS-DOS filesystem created the file +temporarily, which can be slow. Don't do this if there is another check for +the swap file being on an MS-DOS filesystem. + +Don't give the "Changing a readonly file" warning when reading from stdin. + +When using the "Save As" menu entry and not entering a file name, would get an +error message for the trailing ":edit #". Now only do that when the +alternate file name was changed. + +When Vim owns the X11 selection and is being suspended, an application that +tries to use the selection hangs. When Vim continues it could no longer +obtain the selection. Now give up the selection when suspending. + +option.h and globals.h were included in some files, while they were already +included in vim.h. Moved the definition of EXTERN to vim.h to avoid doing it +twice. + +When repeating an operator that used a search pattern and the search pattern +contained characters that have a special meaning on the cmdline (e.g., CTRL-U) +it didn't work. + +Fixed various problems with using K_SPECIAL (0x80) and CSI (0x9b) as a byte in +a (multibyte) character. For example, the "r" command could not be repeated. + +The DOS/Windows install program didn't always work from a directory with a +long filename, because $VIM and the executable name would not have the same +path. + +Multi-byte: +- Using an any-but character range [^x] in a regexp didn't work for UTF-8. + (Muraoka Taro) +- When backspacing over inserted characters in Replace mode multibyte + characters were not handled correctly. (Muraoka Taro) +- Search commands "#" and "*" didn't work with multibyte characters. (Muraoka + Taro) +- Word completion in Insert mode didn't work with multibyte characters. + (Muraoka Taro) +- Athena/Motif GUI: when 'linespace' is non-zero the cursor would be drawn too + wide (number of bytes instead of cell width). +- When changing 'encoding' to "euc-jp" and inserting a character Vim would + crash. +- For euc-jp characters positioning the cursor would sometimes be wrong. + Also, with two characters with 0x8e leading byte only the first one would be + displayed. +- When using DYNAMIC_ICONV on Win32 conversion might fail because of using the + wrong error number. (Muraoka Taro) +- Using Alt-x in the GUI while 'encoding' was set to "utf-8" didn't produce + the right character. +- When using Visual block selection and only the left half of a double-wide + character is selected, the highlighting continued to the end of the line. +- Visual-block delete didn't work properly when deleting the right half of a + double-wide character. +- Overstrike mode for the cmdline replaced only the first byte of a multibyte + character. +- The cursor in Replace mode (also in the cmdline) was to small on a + double-wide character. +- When a multibyte character contained a 0x80 byte, it didn't work (was using + a CSI byte instead). (Muraoka Taro) +- Wordwise selection with the mouse didn't work. +- Yanking a modeless selection of multibyte characters didn't work. +- When 'selection' is "exclusive", selecting a word that ends in a multibyte + character used wrong highlighting for the following character. + +Win32 with Make_mvc.mak: Didn't compile for debugging. (Craig Barkhouse) + +Win32 GUI: When "vimrun.exe" is used to execute an external command, don't +give a message box with the return value, it was already printed by vimrun. +Also avoid printing the return value of the shell when ":silent!" is used. + +Win32: selecting a lot of text and using the "find/replace" dialog caused a +crash. + +X11 GUI: When typing a character with the 8th bit set and the Meta/Alt +modifier, the modifier was removed without changing the character. + +Truncating a message to make it fit on the command line, using "..." for the +middle, didn't always compute the space correctly. + +Could not imap <C-@>. Now it works like <Nul>. + +VMS: +- Fixed a few things for VAXC. os_vms_fix.com had some strange CTRL-M + characters. (Zoltan Arpadffy and John W. Hamill) +- Added VMS-specific defaults for the 'isfname' and 'isprint' options. + (Zoltan Arpadffy) +- Removed os_vms_osdef.h, it's no longer used. + +The gzip plugin used a ":normal" command, this doesn't work when dropping a +compressed file on Vim. + +In very rare situations a binary search for a tag would fail, because an +uninitialized value happens to be half the size of the tag file. (Narendran) + +When using BufEnter and BufLeave autocommands to enable/disable a menu, it +wasn't updated right away. + +When doing a replace with the "c"onfirm flag, the cursor was positioned after +the ruler, instead of after the question. With a long replacement string the +screen could scroll up and cause a "more" prompt. Now the message is +truncated to make it fit. + +Motif: The autoconf check for the Xp library didn't work. + +When 'verbose' is set to list lines of a sourced file, defining a function +would reset the counter used for the "more" prompt. + +In the Win32 find/replace dialog, a '/' character caused problems. Escape it +with a backslash. + +Starting a shell with ":sh" was different from starting a shell for CTRL-Z +when suspending doesn't work. They now work the same way. + +Jumping to a file mark while in a changed buffer gave a "mark not set" error. + +":execute histget("cmd")" causes an endless loop and crashed Vim. Now catch +all commands that cause too much recursiveness. + +Removed "Failed to open input method" error message, too many people got this +when they didn't want to use a XIM. + +GUI: When compiled without the +windows feature, the scrollbar would start +below line one. + +Removed the trick with redefining character class functions from regexp.c. + +Win32 GUI: Find dialog gives focus back to main window, when typing a +character mouse pointer is blanked, it didn't reappear when moving it in the +dialog window. (Vince Negri) + +When recording and typing a CTRL-C, no character was recorded. When in Insert +mode or cancelling half a command, playing back the recorded sequence wouldn't +work. Now record the CTRL-C. + +When the GUI was started, mouse codes for DEC and netterm were still checked +for. + +GUI: When scrolling and 'writedelay' is non-zero, the character under the +cursor was displayed in the wrong position (one line above/below with +CTRL-E/CTRL-Y). + +A ":normal" command would reset the 'scrollbind' info. Causes problems when +using a ":normal" command in an autocommand for opening a file. + +Windows GUI: a point size with a dot, like "7.5", wasn't recognized. (Muraoka +Taro) + +When 'scrollbind' wasn't set would still remember the current position, +wasting time. + +GTK: Crash when 'shell' doesn't exist and doing":!ls". Use _exit() instead of +exit() when the child couldn't execute the shell. + +Multi-byte: +- GUI with double-byte encoding: a mouse click in left half of double-wide + character put the cursor in previous char. +- Using double-byte encoding and 'selection' is "exclusive": "vey" and "^Vey" + included the character after the word. +- When using a double-byte encoding and there is a lead byte at the end of the + line, the preceding line would be displayed. "ga" also showed wrong info. +- "gf" didn't include multibyte characters before the cursor properly. + (Muraoka Taro) + +GUI: The cursor was sometimes not removed when scrolling. Changed the policy +from redrawing the cursor after each call to gui_write() to only update it at +the end of update_screen() or when setting the cursor position. Also only +update the scrollbars at the end of update_screen(), that's the only place +where the window text may have been scrolled. + +Formatting "/*<Tab>long text", produced "* <Tab>" in the next line. Now +remove the space before the Tab. +Formatting "/*<Tab> long text", produced "* <Tab> long text" in the next +line. Now keep the space after the Tab. + +In some places non-ASCII alphabetical characters were accepted, which could +cause problems. For example, ":X" (X being such a character). + +When a pattern matches the end of the line, the last character in the line was +highlighted for 'hlsearch'. That looks wrong for "/\%3c". Now highlight the +character just after the line. + +Motif: If a dialog was closed by clicking on the "X" of the window frame Vim +would no longer respond. + +When using CTRL-X or CTRL-A on a number with many leading zeros, Vim would +crash. (Matsumoto) + +When 'insertmode' is set, the mapping in mswin.vim for CTRL-V didn't work in +Select mode. Insert mode wasn't restarted after overwriting the text. +Now allow nesting Insert mode with insert and change commands. CTRL-O +cwfoo<Esc> now also works. + +Clicking with the right mouse button in another window started Visual mode, +but used the start position of the current window. Caused ml_get errors when +the line number was invalid. Now stay in the same window. + +When 'selection' is "exclusive", "gv" sometimes selected one character fewer. + +When 'comments' contains more than one start/middle/end triplet, the optional +flags could be mixed up. Also didn't align the end with the middle part. + +Double-right-click in Visual mode didn't update the shown mode. + +When the Normal group has a font name, it was never used when starting up. +Now use it when 'guifont' and 'guifontset' are empty. +Setting a font name to a highlight group before the GUI was started didn't +work. + +"make test" didn't use the name of the generated Vim executable. + +'cindent' problems: +- Aligned with an "else" inside a do-while loop for a line below that loop. + (Meikel Brandmeyer) +- A line before a function would be indented even when terminated with a + semicolon. (Meikel Brandmeyer) +- 'cindent' gave too much indent to a line after a "};" that ends an array + init. +- Support declaration lines ending in "," and "\". (Meikel Brandmeyer) +- A case statement inside a do-while loop was used for indenting a line after + the do-while loop. (Meikel Brandmeyer) +- When skipping a string in a line with one double quote it could continue in + the previous line. (Meikel Brandmeyer) + +When 'list' is set, 'hlsearch' didn't highlight a match at the end of the +line. Now highlight the '$'. + +The Paste menu item in the menu bar, the popup menu and the toolbar were all +different. Now made them all equal to how it was done in mswin.vim. + +st_dev can be smaller than "unsigned". The compiler may give an overflow +warning. Added a configure check for dev_t. + +Athena: closing a confirm() dialog killed Vim. + +Various typos in the documentation. (Matt Dunford) + +Python interface: The definition of _DEBUG could cause trouble, undefine it. +The error message for not being able to load the shared library wasn't +translated. (Muraoka Taro) + +Mac: (Dany St-Amant and Axel Kielhorn) +- Several fixes. +- Vim was eating 80% of the CPU time. +- The project os_mac.pbxproj didn't work, Moved it to a subdirectory. +- Made the menu priority work for the menubar. +- Fixed a problem with dragging the scrollbar. +- Cleaned up the various #ifdefs. + +Unix: When catching a deadly signal and we keep getting one use _exit() to +exit in a quick and dirty way. + +Athena menu ordering didn't work correctly. (David Harrison) + +A ":make" or ":grep" command with a long argument could cause a crash. + +Doing ":new file" and using "Quit" for the ATTENTION dialog still opened a new +window. + +GTK: When starting the GUI and there is an error in the .vimrc file, don't +present the wait-return prompt, since the message was given in the terminal. + +When there was an error in a .vimrc file the terminal where gvim was started +could be cleared. Set msg_row in main.c before writing any messages. + +GTK and X11 GUI: When trying to read characters from the user (e.g. with +input()) before the Vim window was opened caused Vim to hang when it was +started from the desktop. + +OS/390 uses 31 bit pointers. That broke some computations with MAX_COL. +Reduce MAX_COL by one bit for OS/390. (Ralf Schandl) + +When defining a function and it already exists, Vim didn't say it existed +until after typing it. Now do this right away when typing it. + +The message remembered for displaying later (keep_msg) was sometimes pointing +into a generic buffer, which might be changed by the time the message is +displayed. Now make a copy of the message. + +When using multibyte characters in a menu and a trailing byte is a backslash, +the menu would not be created correctly. (Muraoka Taro) +Using a multibyte character in the substitute string where a trail byte is a +backslash didn't work. (Muraoka Taro) + +When setting "t_Co" in a vimrc file, then setting it automatically from an +xterm termresponse and then setting it again manually caused a crash. + +When getting the value of a string option that is not supported, the number +zero was returned. This breaks a check like "&enc == "asdf". Now an empty +string is returned for string options. + +Crashed when starting the GTK GUI while using 'notitle' in the vimrc, setting +'title' in the gvimrc and starting the GUI with ":gui". Closed the connection +to the X server accidentally. + +Had to hit return after selecting an entry for ":ts". + +The message from ":cn" message was sometimes cleared. Now display it after +redrawing if it doesn't cause a scroll (truncated when necessary). + +hangulin.c didn't compile when the GUI was disabled. Disable it when it won't +work. + +When setting a termcap option like "t_CO", the value could be displayed as +being for a normal key with a modifier, like "<M-=>". + +When expanding the argument list, entries which are a directory name did not +get included. This stopped "vim c:/" from opening the file explorer. + +":syn match sd "^" nextgroup=asdf" skipped the first column and matched the +nextgroup in the second column. + +GUI: When 'lazyredraw' is set, 'showmatch' didn't work. Required flushing +the output. + +Don't define the <NetMouse> termcode in an xterm, reduces the problem when +someone types <Esc> } in Insert mode. + +Made slash_adjust() work correctly for multibyte characters. (Yasuhiro +Matsumoto) +Using a filename in Big5 encoding for autocommands didn't work (backslash in +trailbyte). (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + +DOS and Windows: Expanding *.vim also matched file.vimfoo. Expand path like +Unix to avoid problems with Windows dir functions. Merged the DOS and Win32 +functions. + +Win32: GvimExt could not edit more than a few files at once, the length of the +argument was fixed. + +"ls -1 * | xargs vim" worked, but the input was in cooked mode. Now switch to +raw mode when needed. Use dup() to copy the stderr file descriptor to stdin +to make shell commands work. No longer requires an external program to do +this. + +When using ":filetype off", ftplugin and indent usage would be switched off at +the same time. Don't do this, setting 'filetype' manually can still use them. + +GUI: When writing a double-byte character, it could be split up in two calls +to gui_write(), which doesn't work. Now flush before the output buffer +becomes full. + +When 'laststatus' is set and 'cmdheight' is two or bigger, the intro message +would be written over the status line. +The ":intro" command didn't work when there wasn't enough room. + +Configuring for Ruby failed with a recent version of Ruby. (Akinori Musha) + +Athena: When deleting the directory in which Vim was started, using the file +browser made Vim exit. Removed the use of XtAppError(). + +When using autoconf 2.50, UNIX was not defined. Moved the comment for "#undef +UNIX" to a separate line. + +Win32: Disabled _OnWindowPosChanging() to make maximize work better. + +Win32: Compiling with VC 4.0 didn't work. (Walter Briscoe) + +Athena: +- Finally fixed the problems with deleting a menu. (David Harrison) +- Athena: When closing the confirm() dialog, worked like OK was pressed, + instead of Cancel. + +The file explorer didn't work in compatible mode, because of line +continuation. + +Didn't give an error message for ":digraph a". + +When using Ex mode in the GUI and typing a special key, <BS> didn't delete it +correctly. Now display '?' for a special key. + +When an operator is pending, clicking in another window made it apply to that +window, even though the line numbers could be beyond the end of the buffer. + +When a function call doesn't have a terminating ")" Vim could crash. + +Perl interface: could crash on exit with perl 5.6.1. (Anduin Withers) + +Using %P in 'errorformat' wasn't handled correctly. (Tomas Zellerin) + +Using a syntax cluster that includes itself made Vim crash. + +GUI: With 'ls' set to 2, dragging the status line all the way up, then making +the Vim window smaller: Could not the drag status line anymore. + +"vim -c startinsert! file" placed cursor on last char of a line, instead of +after it. A ":set" command in the buffer menu set w_set_curswant. Now don't +do this when w_curswant is MAXCOL. + +Win32: When the gvim window was maximized and selecting another font, the +window would no longer fill the screen. + +The line with 'pastetoggle' in ":options" didn't show the right value when it +is a special key. Hitting <CR> didn't work either. + +Formatting text, resulting in a % landing in the first line, repeated the % in +the following lines, like it's the start of a comment. + +GTK: When adding a toolbar item while gvim is already running, it wasn't +possible to use the tooltip. Now it works by adding the tooltip first. + +The output of "g CTRL-G" mentioned "Char" but it's actually bytes. + +Searching for the end of a oneline region didn't work correctly when there is +an offset for the highlighting. + +Syntax highlighting: When synchronizing on C-comments, //*/ was seen as the +start of a comment. + +Win32: Without scrollbars present, the MS mouse scroll wheel didn't work. +Also handle the scrollbars when they are not visible. + +Motif: When there is no right scrollbar, the bottom scrollbar would still +leave room for it. (Marcin Dalecki) + +When changing 'guicursor' and the value is invalid, some of the effects would +still take place. Now first check for errors and only make the new value +effective when it's OK. + +Using "A" In Visual block mode, appending to lines that don't extend into the +block, padding was wrong. + +When pasting a block of text, a character that occupies more than one screen +column could be deleted and spaces inserted instead. Now only do that with a +tab. + +Fixed conversion of documentation to HTML using Perl. (Dan Sharp) + +Give an error message when a menu name starts with a dot. + +Avoid a hang when executing a shell from the GUI on HP-UX by pushing "ptem" +even when sys/ptem.h isn't present. + +When creating the temp directory, make sure umask is 077, otherwise the +directory is not accessible when it was set to 0177. + +Unix: When resizing the window and a redraw is a bit slow, could get a window +resize event while redrawing, resulting in a messed up window. Any input +(e.g., a mouse click) would redraw. + +The "%B" item in the status line became zero in Insert mode (that's normal) +for another than the current window. + +The menu entries to convert to xxd and back didn't work in Insert mode. + +When ":vglobal" didn't find a line where the pattern doesn't match, the error +message would be the wrong way around. + +When ignoring a multi-line error message with "%-A", the continuation lines +would be used anyway. (Servatius Brandt) + +"grx" on a double-wide character inserted "x", instead of replacing the +character with "x ". "gR" on <xx> ('display' set the "uhex") didn't replace +at all. When doing "gRxx" on a control character the first "x" would be +inserted, breaking the alignment. + +Added "0)" to 'cinkeys', so that when typing a ) it is put in the same place +as where "==" would put it. + +Win32: When maximized, adding/removing toolbar didn't resize the text area. + +When using <C-RightMouse> a count was discarded. + +When typing CTRL-V and <RightMouse> in the command line, would insert +<LeftMouse>. + +Using "vis" or "vas" when 'selection' is exclusive didn't include the last +character. + +When adding to an option like 'grepprg', leading space would be lost. Don't +expand environment variables when there is no comma separating the items. + +GUI: When using a bold-italic font, would still use the bold trick and +underlining. + +Motif: The default button didn't work in dialogs, the first one was always +used. Had to give input focus to the default button. + +When using CTRL-T to jump within the same file, the '' mark wasn't set. + +Undo wasn't Vi compatible when using the 'c' flag for ":s". Now it undoes the +whole ":s" command instead of each confirmed replacement. + +The Buffers menu, when torn-off, disappeared when being refreshed. Add a +dummy item to avoid this. + +Removed calling msg_start() in main(), it should not be needed. + +vim_strpbrk() did not support multibyte characters. (Muraoka Taro) + +The Amiga version didn't compile, the code was too big for relative jumps. +Moved a few files from ex_docmd.c to ex_cmds2.c + +When evaluating the "= register resulted in the "= register being changed, Vim +would crash. + +When doing ":view file" and it fails, the current buffer was made read-only. + +Motif: For some people the separators in the toolbar disappeared when resizing +the Vim window. (Marcin Dalecki) + +Win32 GUI: when setting 'lines' to a huge number, would not compute the +available space correctly. Was counting the menu height twice. + +Conversion of the docs to HTML didn't handle the line with the +quickfix tag +correctly. (Antonio Colombo) + +Win32: fname_case() didn't handle multibyte characters correctly. (Yasuhiro +Matsumoto) + +The Cygwin version had trouble with fchdir(). Don't use that function for +Cygwin. + +The generic check in scripts.vim for "conf" syntax was done before some checks +in filetype.vim, resulting in "conf" syntax too often. + +Dos32: Typing lagged behind. Would wait for one biostick when checking if a +character is available. + +GTK: When setting 'columns' while starting up "gvim", would set the width of +the terminal it was started in. + +When using ESC in Insert mode, an autoindent that wraps to the next line +caused the cursor to move to the end of the line temporarily. When the +character before the cursor was a double-wide multibyte character the cursor +would be on the right half, which causes problems with some terminals. + +Didn't handle multibyte characters correctly when expanding a file name. +(Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + +Win32 GUI: Errors generated before the GUI is decided to start were not +reported. + +globpath() didn't reserve enough room for concatenated results. (Anduin +Withers) + +When expanding an option that is very long already, don't do the expansion, it +would be truncated to MAXPATHL. (Anduin Withers) + +When 'selection' is "exclusive", using "Fx" in Visual mode only moved until +just after the character. + +When using IME on the console to enter a file name, the screen may scroll up. +Redraw the screen then. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + +Motif: In the find/replace dialog the "Replace" button didn't work first time, +second time it replaced all matches. Removed the use of ":s///c". +GTK: Similar problems with the find/replace dialog, moved the code to a common +function. + +X11: Use shared GC's for text. (Marcin Dalecki) + +"]i" found the match under the cursor, instead of the first one below it. +Same for "]I", "] CTRL-I", "]d", "]D" and "] CTRL-D". + +Win16: When maximized and the font is changed, don't change the window size. +(Vince Negri) + +When 'lbr' is set, deleting a block of text could leave the cursor in the +wrong position. + +Win32: When opening a file with the "Edit with Vim" popup menu entry, +wildcards would cause trouble. Added the "--literal" argument to avoid +expanding file names. + +When using "gv", it didn't restore that "$" was used in Visual block mode. + +Win32 GUI: While waiting for a shell command to finish, the window wasn't +redrawn at all. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + +Syntax highlighting: A match that continues on a next line because of a +contained region didn't end when that region ended. + +The ":s" command didn't allow flags like 'e' and 'i' right after it. + +When using ":s" to split a line, marks were moved to the next line. Vi keeps +them in the first line. + +When using ":n" ":rew", the previous context mark was at the top of the file, +while Vi puts it in the same place as the cursor. Made it Vi compatible. + +Fixed Vi incompatibility: Text was not put in register 1 when using "c" and +"d" with a motion character, when deleting within one line with one of the +commands: % ( ) `<character> / ? N n { } + +Win32 GUI: The tooltip for tear-off items remained when the tear-off item was +no longer selected. + +GUI: When typing ":" at the more prompt, would return to Normal mode and not +redraw the screen. + +When starting Vim with an argument "-c g/at/p" the printed lines would +overwrite each other. + +BeOS: Didn't compile. Configure didn't add the os_beos files, the QNX check +removed them. Various changes to os_beos.cc. (Joshua Haberman) +Removed the check for the hardware platform, the BeBox has not been produced +for a long time now. + +Win32 GUI: don't use a message box when the shell returns an error code, +display the message in the Vim window. + +Make_mvc.mak always included "/debug" for linking. "GUI=no" argument didn't +work. Use "DEBUG=yes" instead of "DEBUG=1" to make it consistent. (Dan Sharp) + +When a line in the tags file ended in ;" (no TAB following) the command would +not be recognized as a search command. + +X11: The inputMethod resource never worked. Don't use the "none" input method +for SGI, it apparently makes the first character in Input method dropped. + +Fixed incorrect tests in os_mac.h. (Axel Kielhorn) + +Win32 console: When the console where Vim runs in is closed, Vim could hang in +trying to restore the window icon. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto) + +When using ":3call func()" or ":3,3call func() the line number was ignored. + +When 'showbreak' and 'linebreak' were both set, Visual highlighting sometimes +continued until the end of the line. + +GTK GUI: Tearoff items were added even when 'guioptions' didn't contain 't' +when starting up. + +MS-Windows: When the current directory includes a "~", searching files with +"gf" or ":find" didn't work. A "$" in the directory had the same problem. +Added mch_has_exp_wildcard() functions. + +When reducing the Vim window height while starting up, would get an +out-of-memory error message. + +When editing a very long search pattern, 'incsearch' caused the redraw of the +command line to fail. + +Motif GUI: On some systems the "Help" menu would not be on the far right, as +it should be. On some other systems (esp. IRIX) the command line would not +completely show. Solution is to only resize the menubar for Lesstif. + +Using "%" in a line that contains "\\" twice didn't take care of the quotes +properly. Now make a difference between \" and \\". + +For non-Unix systems a dummy file is created when finding a swap name to +detect a 8.3 filesystem. When there is an existing swap file, would get a +warning for the file being created outside of Vim. Also, when closing the Vim +window the file would remain. + +Motif: The menu height was always computed, using a "-menuheight" argument +was setting the room for the command line. Now make clear the argument is not +supported. + +For some (EBCDIC) systems, POUND was equal to '#'. Added an #if for that to +avoid a duplicate case in a switch. + +The GUI may have problems when forking. Always call _exit() instead of exit() +in the parent, the child will call exit(). + +Win32 GUI: Accented characters were often wrong in dialogs and tearoff menus. +Now use CP_ACP instead of CP_OEMCP. (Vince Negri) + +When displaying text with syntax highlighting causes an error (e.g., running +out of stack) the syntax highlighting is disabled to avoid further messages. + +When a command in a .vimrc or .gvimrc causes an ATTENTION prompt, and Vim was +started from the desktop (no place to display messages) it would hang. Now +open the GUI window early to be able to display the messages and pop up the +dialog. + +"r<CR>" on a multibyte character deleted only the first byte of the +character. "3r<CR>" deleted three bytes instead of three characters. + +When interrupting reading a file, Vi considers the buffer modified. Added the +'i' flag in 'cpoptions' flag for this (we don't want it modified to be able to +do ":q"). + +When using an item in 'guicursor' that starts with a colon, Vim would get +stuck or crash. + +When putting a file mark in a help file and later jumping back to it, the +options would not be set. Extended the modeline in all help files to make +this work better. + +When a modeline contained "::" the local option values would be printed. Now +ignore it. + +Some help files did not use a 8.3 names, which causes problems when using +MS-DOS unzip. Renamed "multibyte.txt" to "mbyte.txt", "rightleft.txt" to +"rileft.txt", "tagsearch.txt" to "tagsrch.txt", "os_riscos.txt" to +"os_risc.txt". + +When Visual mode is blockwise, using "iw" or "aw" made it characterwise. That +doesn't seem right, only do this when in linewise mode. But then do it +always, not only when start and end of Visual mode are equal. + +When using "viw" on a single-letter word and 'selection' is exclusive, would +not include the word. + +When formatting text from Insert mode, using CTRL-O, could mess up undo +information. + +While writing a file (also for the backup file) there was no check for an +interrupt (hitting CTRL-C). Vim could hang when writing a large file over a +slow network, and moving the mouse didn't make it appear (when 'mousehide' is +set) and the screen wasn't updated in the GUI. Also allow interrupting when +syncing the swap file, it can take a long time. + +When using ":mksession" while there is help window, it would later be restored +to the right file but not marked as a help buffer. ":help" would then open +another window. Now use the value "help" for 'buftype' to mark a help buffer. + +The session file contained absolute path names in option values, that doesn't +work when the home directory depends on the situation. Replace the home +directory with ~/ when possible. + +When using 'showbreak' a TAB just after the shown break would not be counted +correctly, the cursor would be positioned wrong. + +With 'showbreak' set to "--->" or "------->" and 'sts' set to 4, inserting +tabs did not work right. Could cause a crash. Backspacing was also wrong, +could get stuck at a line break. + +Win32: crashed when tearing off a menu with over 300 items. + +GUI: A menu or toolbar item would appear when only a tooltip was defined for +it. + +When 'scrolloff' is non-zero and "$" is in 'cpoptions', using "s" while the +last line of the file is the first line on screen, the text wasn't displayed. + +When running "autoconf", delete the configure cache to force starting cleanly +when configure is run again. + +When changing the Normal colors for cterm, the value of 'background' was +changed even when the GUI was used. + +The warning for a missing vimrun.exe was always given on startup, but some +people just editing a file don't need to be bothered by it. Only show it when +vimrun would be used. + +When using "%" in a multibyte text it could get confused by trailbytes that +match. (Muraoka Taro) + +Termcap entry for RiscOS was wrong, using 7 and 8 in octal codes. + +Athena: The title of a dialog window and the file selector window were not +set. (David Harrison) + +The "htmlLink" highlight group specified colors, which gives problems when +using a color scheme. Added the "Underlined" highlight group for this. + +After using ":insert" or ":change" the '[ mark would be one line too low. + +When looking for the file name after a match with 'include' one character was +skipped. Same for 'define'. + +Win32 and DJGPP: When editing a file with a short name in a directory, and +editing the same file but using the long name, would end up with two buffers +on the same file. + +"gf" on a filename that starts with "../" only worked when the file being +edited is in the current directory. An include file search didn't work +properly for files starting with "../" or ".". Now search both relative to +the file and to the current directory. + +When 'printheader', 'titlestring', 'iconstring', 'rulerformat' or 'statusline' +contained "%{" but no following "}" memory was corrupted and a crash could +happen. + +":0append" and then inserting two lines did not redraw the blank lines that +were scrolled back down. + +When using insert mode completion in a narrow window, the message caused a +scroll up. Now shorten the message if it doesn't fit and avoid writing the +ruler over the message. + +XIM still didn't work correctly on some systems, especially SGI/IRIX. Added +the 'imdisable' option, which is set by default for that system. + +Patch 6.0aw.008 +Problem: When the first character of a file name is over 127, the Buffers + menu entry would get a negative priority and cause problems. +Solution: Reduce the multiplier for the first character when computing + the hash value for a Buffers menu entry. +Files: runtime/menu.vim + +Patch 6.0aw.010 +Problem: Win32: ":browse edit dir/dir" didn't work.

(Haakon Riiser) + +Removed the Make_tcc.mak makefile for Turbo C. It didn't work and we probably +can't make it work (the compiler runs out of memory). + +Even though the documentation refers to keywords, "[ CTRL-D" was using +'isident' to find matches. Changed it to use 'iskeyword'. Also applies to +other commands that search for defined words in included files such as +":dsearch", "[D" and "[d". + +Made 'keywordprg' global-local.

Add E999 numbers +to all error messages, so that they can be caught by the number. +(Servatius Brandt) +Moved part of ex_docmd.c to the new ex_eval.c source file. + +Include support for GTK+ 2.2.x (Daniel Elstner) +Adds the "~" register: drag & drop text. +Adds the 'toolbariconsize' option. +Add -Dalloca when running lint to work around a problem with alloca() +prototype. + +When selecting an item in the error window to jump to, take some effort to +find an ordinary window to show the file in (not a preview window). + +Support for PostScript printing of various 8-bit encodings. (Mike Williams) + +inputdialog() accepts a third argument that is used when the dialog is +cancelled. Makes it possible to see a difference between cancelling and +entering nothing. + +Included Aap recipes. Can be used to update Vim to the latest version, +building and installing. + +"/" option in 'cinoptions': extra indent for comment lines. (Helmut Stiegler) + +Vim variable "v:register" and functions setreg(), getreg() and getregtype(). +(Michael Geddes) + +"v" flag in 'cpoptions': Leave text on screen with backspace in Insert mode. +(Phillip Vandry) + +Dosinst.exe also finds gvimext.dll in the "GvimExt" directory. Useful when +running install in the "src" directory for testing. + +Support tag files that were sorted with case ignored. (Flemming Madsen) + +When completing a wildcard in a leading path element, as in "../*/Makefile", +only the last part ("Makefile") was listed. Support custom defined +command line completion.

(Servatius +Brandt) + + +Fixed *fixed-6.2* +----- + +Removed a few unused #defines from config.h.in, os_os2_cfg.h and os_vms_conf.h. + +The Vim icons in PNG format didn't have a transparent background. (Greg +Roelofs) + +Fixed a large number of spelling mistakes in the docs. (Adri Verhoef) + +The #defines for prototype generation were causing trouble. Changed them to +typedefs. + +A new version of libintl.h uses __asm__, which confuses cproto. Define a +dummy __asm__ macro. + +When 'virtualedit' is set can't move to halfway an unprintable character. +Cripples CTRL-V selection. (Taro Muraoka) +Allow moving to halfway an unprintable character. Don't let getvvcol() change +the pos->coladd argument. + +When a tab wraps to the next line, 'listchars' is set and 'foldcolumn' is +non-zero, only one character of the foldcolumn is highlighted. (Muraoka Taro) + +When using ":catch" without an argument Vim crashes.
