I'm not sure I understand your request correctly, but perhaps the
showbreak option is what you're looking for?

Check that you are not in comment and not in a string literal.
I think this mapping should be filetype-specific buffer-local mapping
and not a global one: "can complete" conditions are very different in
different filetypes.

mapping dot to trigger omni completion
Towards the end of `:help ins-completion` there's mention of mapping `.` to trigger omni completion when possible:
inoremap <expr> . MayComplete()
func MayComplete()
if (can complete)
return ".\<C-X>\<C-O>"
endif
return '.'
endfunc
I like this idea, but have no idea what might be used for the "can complete" if-condition. Any ideas out there?

I also have ',' as my leader key, and I find I can still use it after f/t/F/T
There is just a lag between the moment I press ',' and the cursor
movement, unless I immediately type another command after hitting ','.
This made me realise that if that command started like a mapping of
mine it would not do what I expect :)

How to indicate multiple window lines that belong to a long line in a file
Currently I use "set number" for this purpose. But it takes a lot of
window space. So I wonder whether there is a better way to do it, such
as the way used in Emacs window (showing a little line wrap symbol at
the end of a window line if it continues to the next window line), or
maybe show alternative background colors for different long lines? Any
ideas?

Isn't that what Tim already explained above with
:help list<C-D>
? Take a look at
:help 'wildmode'
for ways to customize the results. You might try
:set wildmode=longest,list
which is what I use.

Re: Incorrect column positions with vertical splits
Thanks, that explains a lot of things. I just noticed that the status
line I'm using (copied from someone else) uses the "virtual column"
(%v) number instead of the normal column number (%c), which apparently
includes the padding. I've replaced it by "%c%V" now to get both
numbers (the latter only if different from the first).
It's still annoying that the '|'-key uses the "virtual" column number,
too, I didn't expect that. Not sure whether there is a better way,
but instead of '{n}|' I've tried '0{n-1}l', which works well enough
for me.
Best regards,
Markus

line I'm using (copied from someone else) uses the "virtual column"
(%v) number instead of the normal column number (%c), which apparently
includes the padding. I've replaced it by "%c%V" now to get both
numbers (the latter only if different from the first).
It's still annoying that the '|'-key uses the "virtual" column number,
too, I didn't expect that. Not sure whether there is a better way,
but instead of '{n}|' I've tried '0{n-1}l', which works well enough
for me.

Re: Incorrect column positions with vertical splits
This happens when the linebreak setting is set, which causes Vim to
break the line at whitespace instead of in the middle of any word.
When I resize my terminal to 60 characters, and create the line
consisting of 40 'x', a space, 40 'x', the ruler displays 1,41 when my
cursor is on the space and 1,42-61 when my cursor is on the first 'x'
of the second word. I believe 42 is the byte offset of the character
under the cursor relative to the beginning of the line, whereas 61 is
the column of the cursor in the current line. Vim had to add 20 spaces
to pad the line, which explains why the cursor would be at column 61.
Is that not what you observe?

Incorrect column positions with vertical splits
Hi,
Vim may report incorrect column positions when vertical splits force a
line to wrap.
E.g. enter a line consisting of 80 characters of 'x's. Now perform
vertical splits until the split windows are too small to display all
80 characters in one line. Right now, Vim will still display correct
column positions in the status line, because it cannot break the line
at a word boundary and hence needs to wrap it within the word.
Now move the cursor to e.g. column 40 and replace the 'x' there with a
whitespace. Vim will break the line at the whitespace. If you move
the cursor past the break, you will notice that the column count in
the status line will suddenly jump, apparently incorrectly counting
some whitespace that was used to fill in the break.
Note that jumping to column positions in the line using '|' will not
work as expected anymore either if the position falls within the "jump
range". The cursor will just move to the position of the break
instead.
This problem was observed using text-mode Vim version 7.4.258 on Mac OS X.
Best regards,
Markus

:AnsiEsc comes from a plugin (AnsiEsc.vim); it provides a command line
command (:AnsiEsc[!]). You had to have installed AnsiEsc.vim yourself.
Plugins, btw, may provide commands and maps falling in several categories.

Re: Understanding Vim exclusive motions.
I think i understand what you are saying. I was misinterpreting the reference manual terms 'start of motion' and 'end of motion'; i was determining start and end of motion based on direction that the cursor moves, which like you said, is not the correct way.
Thanks :),

Hi all,
I have just started with vim, and i need some help. This is a bit
lengthy, please bear with me :).
I refer to : http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/motion.html#exclusive.
Specifically, the following text:
Which motions are linewise, inclusive or exclusive is mentioned with the
command. There are however, two general exceptions:
1. If the motion is exclusive and the end of the motion is in column 1, the
end of the motion is moved to the end of the previous line and the motion
becomes inclusive. Example: `}` moves to the first line after a paragraph,
but `d}` will not include that line.
Given the following piece of text to start with:
This is just a random paragraph.
This is another random paragraph (Some text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
I start with my cursor on the character `S`, just after the `(`, in
the second paragraph.
I do the following commands - `d}` - in normal mode. I get the following:
This is just a random paragraph.
This is another random paragraph (
This is a third paragraph.
The cursor is now on the `(` in the second paragraph. This is
expected as per the rule above: `}` is an exclusive motion, that
causes the cursor to go to column 1 of the blank line between
paragraphs 2 and 3; as per the rule, the cursor goes to the previous
line (on the full-stop), and the motion becomes inclusive (the
full-stop is deleted as part of the `d` operation).
Let's take the original text again, with the cursor again on the `S`.
If i do the following commands - `d{` - in normal mode, i would expect
to get the following, because the `{` is an exclusive motion, and it
causes the cursor to go to column 1 of the blank line between
paragraphs 1 and 2: everything between the full-stop of paragraph 1
and the `S` are deleted, inclusive.
This is just a random paragraphome text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
But what actually happens is this:
This is just a random paragraph.
Some text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
With the cursor being on the `S`.
Is this an exception to the exception? Or am i simply getting it all wrong?
that end of the motion that is further away from the buffer's start and
does not depend on the direction of the motion. Therefore the S is not
included in the 'd' command and therefore the empty line won't be joined
with the line above as you expected.
Best,
Christian

What you are seeing here is, that exclusive/inclusive always works to
that end of the motion that is further away from the buffer's start and
does not depend on the direction of the motion. Therefore the S is not
included in the 'd' command and therefore the empty line won't be joined
with the line above as you expected.

Because I don't need the functionality of ',' very often and I do
need some sort of prefix/leader for mappings. I can easily type ','
followed by any other key. To type '\', I have to lift my right
hand off the home row and stretch my pinkie to the right. Then
before I type a right-hand key, I have to put my right hand back on
the home row and strike that next key before timeoutlen expires.
That's too much effort and likelihood of error for a mapping I use
often. As for using the function keys: I have enough trouble
touch-typing the keys in the number row. Touch-typing function keys
is right out.
For me, the functionality and usability I gain by using ',' as a map
leader greatly exceeds that lost by not having the bare
functionality of ','.

Gary

I neither know the easy way, but I have the hard one:
https://sourceforge.net/p/formatvim/code/ci/ff11b92e967b66c7ad21ce0c4d0c939618c2b97f/tree/autoload/format.vim#l1288
This is a function which determines where highlighting of each match
starts and ends, and also when match highlights past the end of line.
The returned `splcolumns` value (first in the pair) is a dictionary of
dictionaries of lists where keys in top dictionary are line numbers
with matches and keys in second level dictionary are columns at which
matches start or end. List shows where matches start and end.

I can tell you why I do, but not any of the others: I don't use the
comma or the semi-colon -- I can see what's in the current line and
don't need to search it, let alone repeat that search -- not only do I
use comma as the mapleader, I remapped the semi-colon to the colon,
because I use the colon all the time to get to the ex command line and
with it mapped to the semi-colon I save all that energy I might have

I don't use them enough to permanently map them -- I have things I do
with my F-keys that I do much more frequently than :cn and :cp, and I
happen to like the little message that pops up when I run that function

getmatches() returns the list of patterns set by matchadd() and
friends, but as far as I know there is no easy way to tell whether a

Not that I know of. If I aspired to do something like that, I'd start
by using :helpgrep to find the matches of interest:
:helpgrep \*[#-)!+-~]\+list[#-)!+-~]\+\*
and then access the quick-fix window with ":copen", extracting the
matching contents.

and, if you want to dive in and spend an afternoon reading up on various

By convention, Vim's settings are targeted in the help by putting
single-quotes around them. If they're unique, you can find them in
the help without the quotes, as Vim does a best-guess matching for
substrings. Thus if you do something like
:help formatexpr
it will take you to the same place as
:help 'formatexpr'
However, as you discovered, if you leave off the single-quotes and
some other target is found, it will take you there instead. E.g.
:help 'list' " takes you to the help on the 'list' setting
vs
:help list " takes you to the help on ":list"
So generally, if you want to find an option/setting, make sure to
include the single-quote. The conventions are listed at
:help help-context
which is visible right from the first page of just typing
:help
You can also hit control+D to have Vim show you the potential matches
such as
:help list<C-D>
which shows that there are Ex commands, settings, functions,
build-time options, variables, and data-types all containing the
search-term "list".

Surround shiftwidth with single quotes. Read ":help help-context".

Understanding Vim exclusive motions.
Hi all,
I have just started with vim, and i need some help. This is a bit lengthy, please bear with me :).
I refer to : http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/motion.html#exclusive.
Specifically, the following text:
Which motions are linewise, inclusive or exclusive is mentioned with the
command. There are however, two general exceptions:
1. If the motion is exclusive and the end of the motion is in column 1, the
end of the motion is moved to the end of the previous line and the motion
becomes inclusive. Example: `}` moves to the first line after a paragraph,
but `d}` will not include that line.
Given the following piece of text to start with:
This is just a random paragraph.
This is another random paragraph (Some text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
I start with my cursor on the character `S`, just after the `(`, in the second paragraph.
I do the following commands - `d}` - in normal mode. I get the following:
This is just a random paragraph.
This is another random paragraph (
This is a third paragraph.
The cursor is now on the `(` in the second paragraph. This is expected as per the rule above: `}` is an exclusive motion, that causes the cursor to go to column 1 of the blank line between paragraphs 2 and 3; as per the rule, the cursor goes to the previous line (on the full-stop), and the motion becomes inclusive (the full-stop is deleted as part of the `d` operation).
Let's take the original text again, with the cursor again on the `S`.
If i do the following commands - `d{` - in normal mode, i would expect to get the following, because the `{` is an exclusive motion, and it causes the cursor to go to column 1 of the blank line between paragraphs 1 and 2: everything between the full-stop of paragraph 1 and the `S` are deleted, inclusive.
This is just a random paragraphome text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
But what actually happens is this:

I have just started with vim, and i need some help. This is a bit lengthy, please bear with me :).
I refer to : http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/motion.html#exclusive.
Specifically, the following text:
Which motions are linewise, inclusive or exclusive is mentioned with the
command. There are however, two general exceptions:
1. If the motion is exclusive and the end of the motion is in column 1, the
end of the motion is moved to the end of the previous line and the motion
becomes inclusive. Example: `}` moves to the first line after a paragraph,
but `d}` will not include that line.
Given the following piece of text to start with:
This is just a random paragraph.
This is another random paragraph (Some text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
I start with my cursor on the character `S`, just after the `(`, in the second paragraph.
I do the following commands - `d}` - in normal mode. I get the following:
This is just a random paragraph.
This is another random paragraph (
This is a third paragraph.
The cursor is now on the `(` in the second paragraph. This is expected as per the rule above: `}` is an exclusive motion, that causes the cursor to go to column 1 of the blank line between paragraphs 2 and 3; as per the rule, the cursor goes to the previous line (on the full-stop), and the motion becomes inclusive (the full-stop is deleted as part of the `d` operation).
Let's take the original text again, with the cursor again on the `S`.
If i do the following commands - `d{` - in normal mode, i would expect to get the following, because the `{` is an exclusive motion, and it causes the cursor to go to column 1 of the blank line between paragraphs 1 and 2: everything between the full-stop of paragraph 1 and the `S` are deleted, inclusive.
This is just a random paragraphome text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
But what actually happens is this:
This is just a random paragraph.
Some text inside brackets).
This is a third paragraph.
With the cursor being on the `S`.
Is this an exception to the exception? Or am i simply getting it all wrong?

Correct syntax for enums in C++
Hi everyone.
I want to correctly highlight enumeration values in a C++ application. I tried several approaches but the only one that worked is a little overkill. So I got here to ask the experts.
Suppose that I have a class named "MyClass". That class declares an enum with several values: "EnumConst1", "EnumConst2", etc. In the syntax file, off course, I added "MyClass" in a keyword group of C++ classes:
syn keyword cppClass MyClass
What I want to do is highlight the enumeration values only when they are typed with the class identifier. Like; "MyClass::EnumConst1". I tried this in the following way:
syn macth cppEnum transparent /\<MyClass::\@<=\i\w*\>/
syn keyword cppEnumValue contained EnumConst1 EnumConst2 containedin=cppEnum
Didn't work. I know that the keyword syntax of "MyClass" have precedence over the match syntax but I thought that using it in a transparent match would not interfere in the highlight of the contained enumeration value, since the operator '\@<=' is only to check the presence of a string before the real match. Writing the match in the following way works:
syn match cppEnumValue /\<MyClass::\@<=\(EnumConst1\|EnumConst2\)\>/
But then the 'MyClass' is not highlighted as cppClass group. Only the numeration values are highlighted. And, for a large list of enumeration values, would be overkill to write matches all over it.
There is a solution to this?
Thanks in advance.

which match-highlighting is in effect (if any) at a point in a file?
Hello!
In using :match, :2match, :3match, or matchadd(), one may specify
special highlighting. Any easy way for a vimscript to know which, if
any, highlighting match is active? Such highlighting overrides the
usual syntax highlighting, and I'd like to know what's going on at the
current cursor position.
Thank you,
Chip Campbell

For the console version there already is a .zip file. Well, you need to
get two files:
9229662 vim74rt.zip V7.4 runtime files
1140124 vim74w32.zip V7.4 bin Windows NT/XP console
Obviously these are outdated. And including this in the "one size fits
all" archive is probably easier.

Bunch of files loaded ==> convertion into "loaded into single tabs"
Hi,
accidentally I have loaded a bunch of files into vim without giving
the "-p" option.
Is there a way to convert this "loading scheme" (or how can one name
that? 8) into the "with separated tabs"-loading scheme without restart
vim again?
Thank you very much in advance for any help!

This might not help you much, but anyway. I have this for R (here in
simplified form):
" This is in ftplugin/r.vim.
function! s:RHelp (f)
" Split screen.
silent split R\ Help
" Call to the 'R' command to display help; a bit of string
" manipulation is actually performed on the result, to remove
" formatting of the R help.
exe "0read !R --slave -e '?" . a:f . "'"
" Not necessary, but I have additional things in
" ftplugin/rhelp.vim.
set ft=rhelp
" Set the cursor at the beginning of the file.
call cursor(1, 1)
endfunction
" I now use ':Rhelp keyword'.
com! -buffer -nargs=1 Rhelp call s:RHelp(<q-args>)
This shouldn't be too hard to adapt to JS if you can find a reference
in appropriate form. On that point, I don't know if there exists a JS
doc readable in a terminal.

Paul

Re: [ANN] Vim for Windows build, contains all 3rd party dependencies
Hi Bram,
Yes that would be a good idea. As mentioned before, the Windows users are really at a disadvantage at times as its not a platform that's as tweakable as Linux. So giving a single drop file with all the goodies plus a zip file would be a great idea. Upgrade Check would be awesome. If it would work out, we would have an official version of "all inclusive" Vim, which would really be great. On another note, I was just diffing some server side outputs that consisted of about 200 storage devices being checked side by side (before and after reboot). After that I had to do some search and replace. A colleague of mine who used to call me "crazy" for using Vim is now fervently downloading and learning Vim :). The search and replace really badly stumped and hooked him.
Regards,
Pritesh Ugrankar.

I imagine we provide both a .zip file and an installer.
The .zip file you can unpack in a directory somewhere, then invole
gvim.exe there. The installer would follow the usual MS-Windows
procedure, so that you can easily uninstall it.
These days we should also have an upgrade check somehow...

I imagine we provide both a .zip file and an installer.

These days we should also have an upgrade check somehow...
