Problem: cannot get information about command line completion
Solution: add CmdlineLeavePre autocommand and cmdcomplete_info() Vim
script function (Girish Palya)
This commit introduces two features to improve introspection and control
over command-line completion in Vim:
- Add CmdlineLeavePre autocmd event:
A new event triggered just before leaving the command line and before
CmdlineLeave. It allows capturing completion-related state that is
otherwise cleared by the time CmdlineLeave fires.
- Add cmdcomplete_info() Vim script function:
Returns a Dictionary with details about the current command-line
completion state.
These are similar in spirit to InsertLeavePre and complete_info(),
but focused on command-line mode.
**Use case:**
In [[PR #16759](https://github.com/vim/vim/pull/16759)], two examples
demonstrate command-line completion: one for live grep, and another for
fuzzy file finding. However, both examples share two key limitations:
1. **Broken history recall (`<Up>`)**
When selecting a completion item via `<Tab>` or `<C-n>`, the original
pattern used for searching (e.g., a regex or fuzzy string) is
overwritten in the command-line history. This makes it impossible to
recall the original query later.
This is especially problematic for interactive grep workflows, where
it’s useful to recall a previous search and simply select a different
match from the menu.
2. **Lack of default selection on `<CR>`**
Often, it’s helpful to allow `<CR>` (Enter) to accept the first match
in the completion list, even when no item is explicitly selected. This
behavior is particularly useful in fuzzy file finding.
----
Below are the updated examples incorporating these improvements:
**Live grep, fuzzy find file, fuzzy find buffer:**

```
These customizable snippets can serve as *lightweight* and *native*
alternatives to picker plugins like **FZF** or **Telescope** for common,
everyday workflows. Also, live grep snippet can replace **cscope**
without the overhead of building its database.

Problem: Diff mode's inline highlighting is lackluster. It only
performs a line-by-line comparison, and calculates a single
shortest range within a line that could encompass all the
changes. In lines with multiple changes, or those that span
multiple lines, this approach tends to end up highlighting
much more than necessary.
Solution: Implement new inline highlighting modes by doing per-character
or per-word diff within the diff block, and highlight only the
relevant parts, add "inline:simple" to the defaults (which is
the old behaviour)
This change introduces a new diffopt option "inline:<type>". Setting to
"none" will disable all inline highlighting, "simple" (the default) will
use the old behavior, "char" / "word" will perform a character/word-wise
diff of the texts within each diff block and only highlight the
differences.
The new char/word inline diff only use the internal xdiff, and will
respect diff options such as algorithm choice, icase, and misc iwhite
options. indent-heuristics is always on to perform better sliding.
For character highlight, a post-process of the diff results is first
applied before we show the highlight. This is because a naive diff will
create a result with a lot of small diff chunks and gaps, due to the
repetitive nature of individual characters. The post-process is a
heuristic-based refinement that attempts to merge adjacent diff blocks
if they are separated by a short gap (1-3 characters), and can be
further tuned in the future for better results. This process results in
more characters than necessary being highlighted but overall less visual
noise.
For word highlight, always use first buffer's iskeyword definition.
Otherwise if each buffer has different iskeyword settings we would not
be able to group words properly.
The char/word diffing is always per-diff block, not per line, meaning
that changes that span multiple lines will show up correctly.
Added/removed newlines are not shown by default, but if the user has
'list' set (with "eol" listchar defined), the eol character will be be
highlighted correctly for the specific newline characters.
Also, add a new "DiffTextAdd" highlight group linked to "DiffText" by
default. It allows color schemes to use different colors for texts that
have been added within a line versus modified.
This doesn't interact with linematch perfectly currently. The linematch
feature splits up diff blocks into multiple smaller blocks for better
visual matching, which makes inline highlight less useful especially for
multi-line change (e.g. a line is broken into two lines). This could be
addressed in the future.
As a side change, this also removes the bounds checking introduced to
diff_read() as they were added to mask existing logic bugs that were
properly fixed in #16768.

Problem: command-line auto-completion hard with wildmenu
Solution: implement "noselect" wildoption value (Girish Palya)
When `noselect` is present in `wildmode` and 'wildmenu' is enabled, the
completion menu appears without pre-selecting the first item.
This change makes it easier to implement command-line auto-completion,
where the menu dynamically appears as characters are typed, and `<Tab>`
can be used to manually select an item. This can be achieved by
leveraging the `CmdlineChanged` event to insert `wildchar(m)`,
triggering completion menu.
Without this change, auto-completion using the 'wildmenu' mechanism is
not feasible, as it automatically inserts the first match, preventing
dynamic selection.
The following Vimscript snippet demonstrates how to configure
auto-completion using `noselect`:
```vim
vim9script
set wim=noselect:lastused,full wop=pum wcm=<C-@> wmnu
autocmd CmdlineChanged : timer_start(0, function(CmdComplete, [getcmdline()]))
def CmdComplete(cur_cmdline: string, timer: number)
var [cmdline, curpos] = [getcmdline(), getcmdpos()]
if cur_cmdline ==# cmdline # Avoid completing each character in keymaps and pasted text
&& !pumvisible() && curpos == cmdline->len() + 1
if cmdline[curpos - 2] =~ '[\w*/:]' # Reduce noise by completing only selected characters
feedkeys("\<C-@>", "ti")
set eventignore+=CmdlineChanged # Suppress redundant completion attempts
timer_start(0, (_) => {
getcmdline()->substitute('\%x00$', '', '')->setcmdline() # Remove <C-@> if no completion items exist
set eventignore-=CmdlineChanged
})

Add the window-local 'eventignorewin' option that is analogous to

events that should be allowed in 'eventignorewin', adapt "auto_event"

onto apply_autocmds_group(), and when to ignore an event is a bit
ambiguous when "buf" is not "curbuf", rather than a large refactor, only
ignore an event when all windows into "buf" are ignoring the event.

Problem: the max value of 'tabheight' is limited by other tabpages
Solution: Limit the maximum value of 'cmdheight' to the current tabpage only.

The Help says that cmdheight is local to the tab page, but says nothing
about the maximum value depending on the state of all tab pages. Users
may wonder why they can't increase cmdheight when there are still rows
available on the current tab page. This PR changes the behavior of
cmdheight so that its maximum value depends only on the state of the
current tab page.
Also, since magic numbers were embedded in various places with the
minimum value of cmdheight being 1, we defined a constant to make it

Problem: regex: wrong match when searching multi-byte char
case-insensitive (diffsetter)
Solution: Apply proper case-folding for characters and search-string
This patch does the following 4 things:
1) When the regexp engine compares two utf-8 codepoints case
insensitive it may match an adjacent character, because it assumes
it can step over as many bytes as the pattern contains.
This however is not necessarily true because of case-folding, a
multi-byte UTF-8 character can be considered equal to some
single-byte value.
Let's consider the pattern 'ſ' and the string 's'. When comparing and
ignoring case, the single character 's' matches, and since it matches
Vim will try to step over the match (by the amount of bytes of the
pattern), assuming that since it matches, the length of both strings is
the same.
However in that case, it should only step over the single byte value
's' by 1 byte and try to start matching after it again. So for the
backtracking engine we need to ensure:
* we try to match the correct length for the pattern and the text
* in case of a match, we step over it correctly
There is one tricky thing for the backtracing engine. We also need to
calculate correctly the number of bytes to compare the 2 different
utf-8 strings s1 and s2. So we will count the number of characters in
s1 that the byte len specified. Then we count the number of bytes to
step over the same number of characters in string s2 and then we can
correctly compare the 2 utf-8 strings.
2) A similar thing can happen for the NFA engine, when skipping to the
next character to test for a match. We are skipping over the regstart
pointer, however we do not consider the case that because of
case-folding we may need to adjust the number of bytes to skip over.
So this needs to be adjusted in find_match_text() as well.
3) A related issue turned out, when prog->match_text is actually empty.
In that case we should try to find the next match and skip this
condition.
4) When comparing characters using collections, we must also apply case
folding to each character in the collection and not just to the
current character from the search string. This doesn't apply to the
NFA engine, because internally it converts collections to branches

Problem: win_split_ins has no check for E36 when moving an existing
window
Solution: check for room and fix the issues in f_win_splitmove()
(Sean Dewar)
win_split_ins has no check for E36 when moving an existing window,
allowing for layouts with many overlapping zero-sized windows to be
created (which may also cause drawing issues with tablines and such).
f_win_splitmove also has some bugs.
So check for room and fix the issues in f_win_splitmove. Handle failure
in the two relevant win_split_ins callers by restoring the original
layout, and factor the common logic into win_splitmove.
Don't check for room when opening an autocommand window, as it's a
temporary window that's rarely interacted with or drawn anyhow, and is
rather important for some autocommands.
Issues fixed in f_win_splitmove:
- Error if splitting is disallowed.
- Fix heap-use-after-frees if autocommands fired from switching to "targetwin"
close "wp" or "oldwin".
- Fix splitting the wrong window if autocommands fired from switching to
"targetwin" switch to a different window.
- Ensure -1 is returned for all errors.
Also handle allocation failure a bit earlier in make_snapshot (callers,
except win_splitmove, don't really care if a snapshot can't be made, so
just ignore the return value).
Note: Test_smoothscroll_in_zero_width_window failed after these changes with
E36, as it was using the previous behaviour to create a zero-width window.
I've fixed the test such that it fails with UBSAN as expected when v9.0.1367 is
reverted (and simplified it too).

A type definition is giving a name to a type specification. This also known
type alias.
:type ListOfStrings = list<string>
The type alias can be used wherever a built-in type can be used. The type
alias name must start with an upper case character.

Problem: macOS: FEAT_SOUND guard too restrictive
Solution: check for older macOS support properly
Fix macOS FEAT_SOUND guards to be less restrictive
This allows +sound to work on older macOS platforms again. The +sound
implementation uses APIs available in 10.6, but the code itself uses
generics with type parameters which was only added in Xcode 7 / clang 7,
which was released for macOS 10.11. This means as long as Vim is
compiled under 10.11+, and using a deployment target >= 10.6, the
feature will work.

Problem: cannot complete option values
Solution: Add completion functions for several options
Add cmdline tab-completion for setting string options
Add tab-completion for setting string options on the cmdline using
`:set=` (along with `:set+=` and `:set-=`).
The existing tab completion for setting options currently only works
when nothing is typed yet, and it only fills in with the existing value,
e.g. when the user does `:set diffopt=<Tab>` it will be completed to
`set diffopt=internal,filler,closeoff` and nothing else. This isn't too
useful as a user usually wants auto-complete to suggest all the possible
values, such as 'iblank', or 'algorithm:patience'.
For set= and set+=, this adds a new optional callback function for each
option that can be invoked when doing completion. This allows for each
option to have control over how completion works. For example, in
'diffopt', it will suggest the default enumeration, but if `algorithm:`
is selected, it will further suggest different algorithm types like
'meyers' and 'patience'. When using set=, the existing option value will
be filled in as the first choice to preserve the existing behavior. When
using set+= this won't happen as it doesn't make sense.
For flag list options (e.g. 'mouse' and 'guioptions'), completion will
take into account existing typed values (and in the case of set+=, the
existing option value) to make sure it doesn't suggest duplicates.
For set-=, there is a new `ExpandSettingSubtract` function which will
handle flag list and comma-separated options smartly, by only suggesting
values that currently exist in the option.
Note that Vim has some existing code that adds special handling for
'filetype', 'syntax', and misc dir options like 'backupdir'. This change
preserves them as they already work, instead of converting to the new
callback API for each option.

Problem: Mac OS X: missing sound support on older versions
Solution: Check Macro MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED
Extend guard for sound support on OS X
Fixes build on legacy versions where required coreaudio functionality
may not be available. NSSoundDelegate apparently was introduced in Snow
Leopard yet the build breaks on it. Guarding off enabling sound support
to El Capitan as that's the next version I had access to for testing (it
may work on earlier versions)
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/appkit/nssounddelegate Vim
builds on OS X Tiger 10.4 and newer with this change.
