I cannot see a member with that name or E-Mail address in either the
vim_use or vim_dev list. You can direct him to me, but my possibilities
are limited. Google groups is a free service but also has no real
support unfortunately.

Thanks,

issues posting to the dev list

Someone in comp.editors is reporting that attempts to post to Vim Dev
list (<vim_dev@googlegroups.com> and <vim-dev@vim.org>) are bouncing
with Google errors:

"We're writing to let you know that the group you tried to
contact (vim_dev) may not exist, or you may not have permission
to post messages to the group. A few more details on why you
weren't able to post:
* You might have spelled or formatted the group name incorrectly.
* The owner of the group may have removed this group.
* You may need to join the group before receiving permission to post.
* This group may not be open to posting.
If you have questions related to this or any other Google Group,
visit the Help Center at https://groups.google.com/support/."

Subscribing to the list works, but doesn't fix the problem.

Anyone running that list and able to read/post to Usenet still?

Patch 9.2.0229 seems to have fixed it. Thanks!

For me the issue is still happening in 9.2.209 on the terminals I've
tried: xterm,
xfce, gnome console, gnome terminal. It is working however on Konsole, which
also worked in 9.2.204.

Thanks for reporting, but it's not clear to me is this issue only
present in xterm? Or is it resolved with latest master?

Thanks,

I forgot to mention that the terminal I used was xterm version 403
and the desktop environment was GNOME 46.0.

However, I discovered that the issue is not present in the latest
Vim, 9.2.209, when using GNOME Terminal version 3.52.0.
