Re: Get buffer's line count and check for emptiness

I may have missed the part where you're not checking the current buffer (the bufnr bit). Not sure of an easier way than what you have to check if another buffer is empty.

line('$') == 1 to see if it's just one line
getline('1') == '' to see if that line is completely empty

I also need to check whether a buffer is empty, which I do like this:

    var is_empty = linecount == 1 && empty(getbufoneline(bufnr, 1))

I'm wondering: is there any simpler way to perform the two tasks above
that I'm missing?

Thanks,
Life.
