I have the following function in my .vimrc
function! AddToExHistory(cmd)
execute "normal! q:i" . a:cmd
endfunction
I adds the command 'cmd' to my ex history (command history) without executing it.
One way to use it, is the following:
map gls :call AddToExHistory('!ls')<CR>
If I now type 'gls', and then 'q:' I can see ':!ls' as the most recent entry in my ex history.
After I updated my Gentoo installation this has stopped working. (Typing 'gls' has no apparent effect)
My questions:
- Does this work on _your_ computer?
- Do you know of any other way to add a command to the ex history?
- Is this a bug in VIM?
- Could this be caused by a recent VIM patch? Where do I find these patches?
I'm running this version:
VIM - Vi IMproved 7.4 (2013 Aug 10, compiled Oct 22 2015 15:02:48)
Included patches: 1-769
Modified by Gentoo-7.4.769
