Problem: The socket I/O is intertwined with the netbeans code.
Solution: Start refactoring the netbeans communication to split off the
socket I/O. Add the +channel feature.
Problem: Still using old style C function declarations.
Solution: Always define __ARGS() to include types. Turn a few functions
into ANSI style to find out if this causes problems for anyone.
Problem: CTRL-A and CTRL-X do not work properly with blockwise visual
selection if there is a mix of Tab and spaces.
Solution: Add OP_NR_ADD and OP_NR_SUB. (Hirohito Higashi)
Problem: Alloc_id depends on numbers, may use the same one twice. It's not
clear from the number what it's for.
Solution: Use an enum. Add a function to lookup the enum value from the
name.
Problem: searchpos() always starts searching in the first column, which is
not what some people expect. (Brett Stahlman)
Solution: Add the 'z' flag: start at the specified column.
Problem: Writing tests for Vim script is hard.
Solution: Add assertEqual(), assertFalse() and assertTrue() functions. Add
the v:errors variable. Add the runtest script. Add a first new
style test script.
Problem: When using the CompleteDone autocommand event it's difficult to
get to the completed items.
Solution: Add the v:completed_items variable. (Shougo Matsu)
Problem: When completing a shell command, directories in the current
directory are not listed.
Solution: When "." is not in $PATH also look in the current directory for
directories.
Problem: glob() and globpath() cannot include links to non-existing files.
(Charles Campbell)
Solution: Add an argument to include all links with glob(). (James McCoy)
Also for globpath().
Problem: Crash when searching for "x\{0,90000}". (Dominique Pelle)
Solution: Bail out from the NFA engine when the max limit is much higher
than the min limit.
Problem: Using a range for window and buffer commands has a few problems.
Cannot specify the type of range for a user command.
Solution: Add the -addr argument for user commands. Fix problems. (Marcin
Szamotulski)
Problem: Value of v:hlsearch reflects an internal variable.
Solution: Make the value reflect whether search highlighting is actually
displayed. (Christian Brabandt)
Problem: Text drawing on newer MS-Windows systems is suboptimal. Some
multi-byte characters are not displayed, even though the same font
in Notepad can display them. (Srinath Avadhanula)
Solution: Add the 'renderoptions' option to enable Direct-X drawing. (Taro
Muraoka)
Problem: getreg() does not distinguish between a NL used for a line break
and a NL used for a NUL character.
Solution: Add another argument to return a list. (ZyX)
Problem: Using "gf" in a changed buffer suggests adding "!", which is not
possible. (Tim Chase)
Solution: Pass a flag to check_changed() wether adding ! make sense.
Problem: On some systems case of file names is always ignored, on others
never.
Solution: Add the 'fileignorecase' option to control this at runtime.
Implies 'wildignorecase'.
Problem: Matchparen does not update match when using auto-indenting.
(Marc Aldorasi)
Solution: Add the TextChanged and TextChangedI autocommand events.
Problem: Clipboard does not work on Win32 when compiled with Cygwin.
Solution: Move the Win32 clipboard code to a separate file and use it when
building with os_unix.c. (Frodak Baksik, Ken Takata)
Problem: Cannot act upon end of completion. (Taro Muraoka)
Solution: Add an autocommand event that is triggered when completion has
finished. (Idea by Florian Klein)
