Thank you. It looks really cool!

Do you maybe also have, or is it easy for you to make, a Monday start
version?
I'd love to use your calendar if I could have that, because for me it
makes
sense that the weekends are grouped together at the end of the week
calendar.

Happy New Year

Vim calendar for 2023 available

Happy New Year to all Vim users!

I have updated the handy desktop calendar for 2023. It prints on one
sheet of paper and, after folding and applying a bit of glue, stands on
your desk.

It is available in English and Dutch. You can find the PDF files on my
website: https://moolenaar.net/#Calendar

Happy Vimming!

Simple Vim questions -- Backspace + Escape in maps

I used Vi for many years (on Unix) then stopped, but need it again (on Windows 10). There are couple of things that I used to be able to do in my sleep but no longer master, and the online information is hard to use (it talks about very complicated things but I was not able to find simple answers to simple questions).

 

1. Backspace in insert mode, over some characters, gives a special character instead of erasing. I remember that this was a feature, not a bug – a way to type special characters when they were troublesome to produce otherwise. I don't need that facility, which is very annoying; I just want backspace to erase. What should I do? My settings file (_vimrc) currently has

 

              set bs=2

 

2. How do I represent ESC in a macro (my name for the result of a "map")? I want to define something like

 

              :map v iSOME TEXT<Esc>

 

so that when I type "v" it will insert SOME_TEXT at the current position and then escape (get out of insert mode). But I no longer know how to type what appears above as <Esc> when entering the macro. I remembered various incantations involving CTRL-V or CTRL-G but they do not seem to work.

 

Very basic stuff, I just forgot.

 

Help will be much appreciated.

 

With best regards,

Re: Multiple windows get corrupted

Not sure to whom you might be addressing this, but my general method would be to remove plugins and try to see if vim is still stable. Then add plugins back to the configuration until problems start to appear. That way you might find out what is causing the problem.

You have to run it from your shell. It'll open Vim without any
user-level configuration. If the issue persists without your user-level
config, we can be sure it's a bug in Vim. But if it can't be reproduced
without '--clean', then we can be sure the problem is being caused by
your config. Either way, it'll narrow the suspects.

Read ':h --clean' for more details.

Don't you know there are vim-easymotion, vim-sneak, and many other
plugins for quick navigation? If you want pluginless, I don't come up
with an easy way to do so in a script with only a few lines.

Should be easy, specially if Vim has a way to add virtual text. But I
think that'd add too much noise to be useful.

I suggest using 'f' and 't' and plain searching ('/' and '?') to move
around than motions like 'nw', 'nb', 'ne', etc. (where 'n' is any
positive integer). I can't provide any statistical data supporting that
'f','t','/','?' are better, but try it out and see if it works before
investing time building a custom plugin to add "relative numbering for
words."

P.S. I don't use line numbers (relative or otherwise) either, except
when doing pair programming. I find that '/','?' are much faster and
precise and jumping to lines with 'nj','nk','nG', etc. So consider my
suggestion with enough skepticism.

Re: word count

Yes, but is there way for it, to show some sort of numbers relative to curson on that line. 

Some small nukber above word, idk. 

Just not to calculate how much words i need to jump, if i want to go jumping between words.

we have relative numbering for lines, so we don't have to calculate when we want to jump between lines.

But is something similar possible for words? 

For current line to show, what number of word it is? Depending on where cursor is?

Because i don't feel like calculating how much words there is between cursor and word where i want to jump to. And it would be faster and efficient, 'to just know' how much words to jump in current line to get to some word

I did shudder, but I'm not gonna begrudge you your way. As long as it
works, no need to fix it. I just wanna add that using tabs as buffers
will keep you from using tabs as window-manager. I use tabs that way:
each tab has a set of windows, split and resized just the way I want.
The tabs are separated a/c a context. The context maybe a project (so
one tab per project) or a module (one tab for 'src/handle/', another for
'src/menu/').

Use cases:

o If I want to open a file without destroying the perfect arrangement of
windows I have got going on, I can open the file in a new tab.
o If I want to work on a different module, I can:
o Open a new tab
o ':tcd src/module/'
o ':e **/*<tab>'
That way I have a new workspace for that module.

If you don't require this workflow, or you've got a substitute for it,
using tabs as buffers won't be any less pure. If not, maybe you can do
a intuitive cost-benefit analysis and see if adopting a different
approach (buffers as buffers and tabs as window-manager) seems better.

Hi all,

I typically use :bn and :bp to move between buffers, but I have five
buffers open on my current project, which requires a heck of a lot of
keystrokes to move to a specific buffer. So I'd like a command to bring
up a list of buffers so I can chose a specific one.

I've looked up :h buffers and can't find anything. Is there a way I
could do this?

Theoretically I could use the gvim menu system to do this, but it
involves taking my hands off home position to use the arrow keys, and
also, Alt+b is a difficult hotkey, so I'd much rather have some sort of
Vim command to do it.

Thanks,

Re: Multiple windows get corrupted

Thanks for your reply. Yes, I did try Ctrl-L or the ex command :redraw as I found them when searching for similar experience from others.

I am running in GUI mode. 

Latest version meaning what? Vim 9 or the latest in 8.2xxx build? As I mentioned I am running 8.2.4919. 

However I would be glad to upgrade to Vim 9. The problem however when I tried this upgrade on a non work environment by cloning and building vim, the steps didn't mentioned how to go about populating all the other sub folders under vim. Example, plugin, syntax, colors, etc.

Thanks,

Have you tried using `Ctrl-L` or the ex command `:redraw` (with or
without the `!`)?

Does it fix it?

Also, are you running vim in a terminal or using a GUI? Can you verify
using the latest Vim version?

Thanks,
Chris

Re: Multiple windows get corrupted

Thanks for your reply. I am not sure what '$ vim --clean' does. Is this another way running vim?

Re: How to quickly move to a specific buffer?

Since no one mentioned this:

You can use ':b<buffer number>' to move to a specific buffer.
When I forget which buffer is which number, I execute ':ls' and then I
do ':b2' for buffer number 2, ':b 1' for the first buffer, etc

No, we do not provide cumulative patches. If you are installing vim, best is always to go from the lastest patch in the master branch and keep it updated regularly.

If you are using a Distribution with Security Support, it will probably take care of those. But you should check with the maintainers separately to be sure.

I have this in my setup

set wildmenu
set wildoptions=pum,fuzzy

With this, the command fuzzy-completes in a pop-up window.

By fuzzy completion, do you mean ':b cdent' should expand to a buffer
'src/cindent.c'? or do you mean I need to use ':b c*dent'?  Because the
latter is slightly different, I wouldn't necessarily call that fuzzy.

I am referring to the former.  You can enable this by adding 'fuzzy' to 'wildoptions'.

I agree with Christian, and in addition, if you can (or can learn to)
compile your own Vim (it is not outlandishly difficult, it just takes
a little getting used to), the latest source is available on both a
git repository on github, maintained directly by Bram (see
https://www.vim.org/git.php for info) and a Mercurial repository
maintained by Christian at https://hg.256bit.org/vim mirrorring Bram's
git repository (see https://www.vim.org/mercurial.php for details).

I used to have a pair of HowTo pages, about compiling Vim on Windows
and on Linux (and other Unix-like systems), but my ISP (Belgacom
Skynet aka Proximus) has removed all user sites not maintained by
their own engineers, and I wasn't ready to let other people decide how
my user site should look. I still have HTML backups of this user site
but, alas, they are not available on the Web anymore.

Best regards,
Tony.

I did :h fuzzy but it said nothing about fuzzy completion. How do I
achieve fuzzy completion, and how much of the filename (or something
else) do I have to type in?

You need to add 'fuzzy' to 'wildoptions'.  This enables fuzzy completion for command line completion.

compile your own Vim (it is not outlandishly difficult, it just takes
a little getting used to), the latest source is available on both a
git repository on github, maintained directly by Bram (see
https://www.vim.org/git.php for info) and a Mercurial repository
maintained by Christian at https://hg.256bit.org/vim mirrorring Bram's
git repository (see https://www.vim.org/mercurial.php for details).

I used to have a pair of HowTo pages, about compiling Vim on Windows
and on Linux (and other Unix-like systems), but my ISP (Belgacom
Skynet aka Proximus) has removed all user sites not maintained by
their own engineers, and I wasn't ready to let other people decide how
my user site should look. I still have HTML backups of this user site
but, alas, they are not available on the Web anymore.

Best regards,
Tony.

No, we do not provide cumulative patches. If you are installing vim,
best is always to go from the lastest patch in the master branch and
keep it updated regularly.

If you are using a Distribution with Security Support, it will probably
take care of those. But you should check with the maintainers separately
to be sure.


Best,
Christian

Do you want to do it in a barebone vim (i.e) no plugin way, or you are
opt to use plugin to do that?

Might be a bit offtopic here, I use neovim, so to find a buffer I use
"Telescope buffers". As what I remembered, LeaderF, Coc.nvim, and
fzf.vim might be the alternatives in vim.

And if you want to do it in the cmdline, then ":ls" to show all buffers
and then":b xxx" might be the only viable solution. The default vim's
completion system works not that good, it is neither case-insensitive
nor fuzzable (it works similar to the default bash?). I used nvim-cmp as
my auto-completion framework which also works in cmdline, so when I type
":b xxx" an auto-completion popup invokes and I can just complete it
with fuzzy matching. What first comes in my mind of the alternative of
nvim-cmp in vim is coc.nvim, but there are definetely other
alternatives.

For me, :split only makes 2 windows, not a window for every buffer.

# vim -o <file1> <file2> ..

If you are already inside vim, you can either manually run ":split <file1>", ":split <file2>" .. OR

    :bufdo split (Close those you do not want)

One nice tip here is that, once you place your buffers in vim to your taste, you can run the command:

    :mksession <session-file>

..to save those windows placement. Later run

    :source <session-file>

..to restore the view. That is a huge time saver sometimes.

I looked up :h tab and found stuff seemingly unrelated. How does one
open a tab?

Either use:

    $ vim -p <file1> <file2> ..

..or inside vime:

    :tabe <file1>

:help tabedit

I don't think you wanted this, because I have never used it, but if you
do want to open windows for each buffer, you can use ':h bufdo'.

:bufdo split
:bufdo vsplit

By fuzzy completion, do you mean ':b cdent' should expand to a buffer
'src/cindent.c'? or do you mean I need to use ':b c*dent'? Because the
latter is slightly different, I wouldn't necessarily call that fuzzy.

I figured it out. Shift+Ctrl+n is <s-c-n>. Two consecutive pushes of
Alt+n is <a-n><a-n>. Both of those are better for me than F5, and both
are sufficient for my needs.

So this is the solution I'm going to use.

This is almost exactly what I need, the two exceptions being:

1) It becomes very time consuming if the number of buffers exceeds the
height of the Vim window. However, this will usually not be the case.

2) F5 is a very inconvenient hotkey. Is there a way I could use
Shift+Ctrl+n ? How would I change the <F5> to change it to
Shift+Ctrl+n ?

I did :h fuzzy but it said nothing about fuzzy completion. How do I
achieve fuzzy completion, and how much of the filename (or something
else) do I have to type in?

You've pointed out the critical failure here...my inability to
