Even with a prominent warning, it can still be easy to miss in
some cases -- I usually fly with the default 'wrapscan', but when
searching long CSV/tab-delim files, I am visually focused on the
hits, not elsewhere on the screen (where the msg is), often
hitting "n" dozens if not hundreds of times. This "road
hypnotism" leads me to temporarily set 'nowrapscan' and search
from the top -- it's much easier to see when you've hit the
bottom if nothing changes visually even after multiple hits of
"n". Not something I use often, but about twice a month, I'm
glad to have the option to change the behavior.

Formatting help files

Hi.
I have some help files along with my scripts and I wanto give them a better formatting.
So far the text layout is not too  bad, but I am wondering is there is anyway to make some letter to appear as bold or italic, like when you write a wiki.
Is this possible with vim help files format????
thanks

You can try uncrustify http://uncrustify.sourceforge.net/

But you example is a hard one, how can you decide what is "nice way"?
Can you post it formated?

Any command to format C source in a nice way?

Hi, everyone.

Sometimes C codes in some files are hard to read,
for example:
if (!(({ unsigned long flag, roksum; (void)0; __asm__("adds %1, %2,
%3; sbcccs %1, %1, %0; movcc %0, #0" : "=&r" (flag), "=&r" (roksum) :
"r" (buf), "Ir" (count), "0" (current_thread_info()->addr_limit) :
"cc"); flag; }) == 0))
return -14;

Is there any command to format the specified line directly?

Best Regards,
robert

Re: Syntax Highlighting Minor Groups

Okay, I went here:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1199267/braces-and-operators-coloring-in-vim-for-c/1199578#1199578

Tried the following code to see the operator classification:

:map <F3> :echo "hi<" . synIDattr(synID(line("."),col("."),1),"name") . '>
trans<' . synIDattr(synID(line("."),col("."),0),"name") . "> lo<" .
synIDattr(synIDtrans(synID(line("."),col("."),1)),"name") . ">"<CR>

And apparently there's no group for the brackets, ++, ;, etc. operators.
Which means we would have to do this with pattern matching huh?

Re: Syntax Highlighting Minor Groups

Jürgen,

Thanks! It works! But, for some reason, I am unable to get the Operator
minor group highlighting to work.

For example,

hi Operator gui=none guifg=Red

Doesn't work for some reason...

Re: How to recover files after vim crash?

That really shouldn't happen. In what context does this happen to you?

Not sure. You can probably script something like this. May be, it works
already when including the % in your viminfo file.
