Problem: When pasting on the command line line breaks result in literal
<CR> characters. This makes pasting a long file name difficult.
Solution: Skip the characters.
Problem: Completing the longest match doesn't work properly with multi-byte
characters.
Solution: When using multi-byte characters use another way to find the
longest match. (Hirohito Higashi)
Problem: When 'conceallevel' is 1 and quitting the command-line window with
CTRL-C the first character ':' is erased.
Solution: Reset 'conceallevel' in the command-line window. (Hirohito
Higashi)
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: 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: Endless loop and other problems when 'cedit' is set to CTRL-C.
Solution: Do not call ex_window() when ex_normal_busy or got_int was set.
(Yasuhiro Matsumoto)
Problem: Cannot wrap lines taking indent into account.
Solution: Add the 'breakindent' option. (many authors, final improvements by
Christian Brabandt)
Problem: When there is an error preparing to edit the command line, the
command won't be executed. (Hirohito Higashi)
Solution: Reset did_emsg before editing.
Problem: globpath() returns a string, making it difficult to get a list of
matches. (Greg Novack)
Solution: Add an optional argument like with glob(). (Adnan Zafar)
Problem: Win32: When a directory name contains an exclamation mark,
completion doesn't complete the contents of the directory.
Solution: Escape the exclamation mark. (Jan Stocker)
Problem: Cannot right shift lines starting with #.
Solution: Allow the right shift when 'cino' contains #N with N > 0.
(Christian Brabandt)
Refactor parsing 'cino', store the values in the buffer.
Problem: ":wviminfo!" does not write history previously read from a viminfo
file. (Roland Eggner)
Solution: When not merging history write all entries.
Problem: When writing viminfo, old history lines may replace lines written
more recently by another Vim instance.
Solution: Mark history entries that were read from viminfo and overwrite
them when merging with the current viminfo.
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: Using CTRL-\ e mappings is useful also when entering an
expression, but it doesn't work. (Marcin Szamotulski)
Solution: Allow using CTRL-\ e when entering an expression if it was not
typed.
Problem: When pasting a register in the search command line a CTRL-L
character is not pasted. (Dominique Pelle)
Solution: Escape the CTRL-L. (Christian Brabandt)
Problem: Redrawing a character on the command line does not work properly
for multi-byte charactes.
Solution: Count the number of bytes in a character. (Yukihiro Nakadaira)
Problem: Cannot get file name with newline from glob().
Solution: Add argument to glob() and expand() to indicate they must return a
list. (Christian Brabandt)
