Re: empty bufname('%') for quick fix, location list and preview window.

Hi, Christian

I should state the purpose in the original post. What I was trying to do is to tell the difference between location list and quick fix and make a local powerline theme for each of them. But I can not find the way to differentiate quick fix window from location list.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Zhao
