Yes, :chistory does show a new one.

Thanks for the input.

I will put on some verbose first I think and see if any of the plugins jump out at me, rather than disabling all of them at the outset.

As always, appreciate the help.

I am not able to reproduce this issue. Are you using a plugin that
creates a quickfix list when a buffer is modified or saved?
When this happens, can you run the ":chistory" command to see
whether the quickfix list has been superseded by a new quickfix
list? Are you able to reproduce this problem without any plugins?
