Problem: No terminal emulator support. Cannot properly run commands in the
GUI. Cannot run a job interactively with an ssh connection.
Solution: Very early implementation of the :terminal command. Includes
libvterm converted to ANSI C. Many parts still missing.
Problem: Crash when closing the quickfix window in a FileType autocommand
that triggers when the quickfix window is opened.
Solution: Save the new value before triggering the OptionSet autocommand.
Add the "starting" flag to test_override() to make the text work.
Problem: When opening a help file the filetype is set several times.
Solution: When setting the filetype to the same value from a modeline, don't
trigger FileType autocommands. Don't set the filetype to "help"
when it's already set correctly.
Problem: Test_options fails when run in the GUI.
Solution: Also check the 'imactivatekey' value when the GUI is not running.
Specify test values that work and that fail.
Problem: Swap file exists briefly when opening the command window.
Solution: Set the noswapfile command modifier before splitting the window.
(James McCoy, closes#1620)
Problem: Invalid memory access when setting wildchar empty.
Solution: Avoid going over the end of the option value. (Dominique Pelle,
closes#1509) Make option test check all number options with
empty value.
Problem: The 'balloondelay', 'ballooneval' and 'balloonexpr' options are
not defined without the +balloon_eval feature. Testing that an
option value fails does not work for unsupported options.
Solution: Make the options defined but not supported. Don't test if
setting unsupported options fails.
Problem: It is not so easy to write a script that works with both Python 2
and Python 3, even when the Python code works with both.
Solution: Add 'pyxversion', :pyx, etc. (Marc Weber, Ken Takata)
Problem: When the user sets t_BE empty after startup to disable bracketed
paste, this has no direct effect.
Solution: When t_BE is made empty write t_BD. When t_BE is made non-empty
write the new value.
Problem: 'formatprg' is a global option but the value may depend on the
type of buffer. (Sung Pae)
Solution: Make 'formatprg' global-local. (closes#1380)
Problem: Cannot make Vim fail on an internal error.
Solution: Add IEMSG() and IEMSG2(). (Domenique Pelle) Avoid reporting an
internal error without mentioning where.
Problem: Code for MS-Windows is complicated because of the exceptions for
old systems.
Solution: Drop support for MS-Windows older than Windows XP. (Ken Takata)
Problem: getwinvar() returns wrong Value of boolean and number options,
especially non big endian systems. (James McCoy)
Solution: Cast the pointer to long or int. (closes#1060)
Problem: The 'langnoremap' option leads to double negatives. And it does
not work for the last character of a mapping.
Solution: Add 'langremap' with the opposite value. Keep 'langnoremap' for
backwards compatibility. Make it work for the last character of a
mapping. Make the test work.
Problem: Cannot map <M-">. (Stephen Riehm)
Solution: Solve the memory access problem in another way. (Dominique Pelle)
Allow for using <M-\"> in a string.
Problem: It is not easy to get information about buffers, windows and
tabpages.
Solution: Add getbufinfo(), getwininfo() and gettabinfo(). (Yegappan
Lakshmanan)
