Problem: Not easy to start Vim cleanly without changing the viminfo file.
Not possible to know whether the -i command line flag was used.
Solution: Add the --clean command line argument. Add the 'viminfofile'
option. Add "-u DEFAULTS".
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: When 'hlsearch' is set and matching with the last search pattern
is very slow, Vim becomes unusable. Cannot quit search by
pressing CTRL-C.
Solution: When the search times out set a flag and don't try again. Check
for timeout and CTRL-C in NFA loop that adds states.
Problem: The :global command does not work recursively, which makes it
difficult to execute a command on a line where one pattern matches
and another does not match. (Miles Cranmer)
Solution: Allow for recursion if it is for only one line. (closes#1760)
Problem: The ":stag" command does not respect 'switchbuf'.
Solution: Check 'switchbuf' for tag commands that may open a new window.
(Ingo Karkat, closes#1681) Define macros for the return values
of getfile().
Problem: The cursor line number becomes negative when using :z^ in an empty
buffer. (neovim #6557)
Solution: Correct the line number. Also reset the column.
Problem: Getting name of cleared highlight group is wrong. (Matt Wozniski)
Solution: Only skip over cleared names for completion. (closes#1592)
Also fix that a cleared group causes duplicate completions.
Problem: Old fix for :move messing up folding no longer needed, now that we
have a proper solution.
Solution: Revert patch 7.4.700. (Christian Brabandt)
Problem: When using :substitute with the "c" flag and 'cursorbind' is set
the cursor is not updated in other windows.
Solution: Call do_check_cursorbind(). (Masanori Misono)
Problem: When opening a buffer on a directory and inside a try/catch then
the BufEnter event is not triggered.
Solution: Return NOTDONE from readfile() for a directory and deal with the
three possible return values. (Justin M. Keyes, closes#1375,
closes#1353)
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: Crash when editing a new buffer and BufUnload autocommand wipes
out the new buffer. (Norio Takagi)
Solution: Don't allow wiping out this buffer. (partly by Hirohito Higashi)
Move old style test13 into test_autocmd. Avoid ml_get error when
editing a file.
Problem: Crash when autocommand moves to another tab. (Dominique Pelle)
Solution: When navigating to another window halfway the :edit command go
back to the right window.
Problem: :filter does not work for many commands. Can only get matching
messages.
Solution: Make :filter work for :command, :map, :list, :number and :print.
Make ":filter!" show non-matching lines.
Problem: Fail to read register content from viminfo if it is 438 characters
long. (John Chen)
Solution: Adjust the check for line wrapping. (closes#1010)
Problem: When a file gets a name when writing it 'acd' is not effective.
(Dan Church)
Solution: Invoke DO_AUTOCHDIR after writing the file. (Allen Haim, closes
#777, closes#803) Add test_autochdir() to enable 'acd' before
"starting" is reset.
