Hello,
I have a problem with an old hack that works fine in latin1, but starts
to cause problems in UTF-8.
The hack helps to replace activation key-sequences from i-mappings with
their mapped value, which are actually calls to script-local functions.
What is quite odd is that I have a workaround on Linux (by calling
iconv()) which has no, useful, effect on Windows (win32 build).
The problem has existed for a long time. The iconv() workaround works
correctly with vim 7.0.012 on linux, but not with vim 7.0.000 (default
win32 build) on windows.
Is there a solution to my problem (may be a patch for vim) ? Or have I
to change the scope of my i-mapped local-functions to global ?
Thank in advance for any hint.
Here follows a simplified viml code that illustrates what I'm trying to
achieve.
----------- >% ------------
" script1
function! s:foo()
" complex computations according to context, ...
return "foo"
endfunction
inoremap !foo! <c-r>=<sid>foo()<cr>
" ======================================
" script2 in real situation
function! s:bar()
let foo = '!foo!'
let m = maparg(foo,'i')
if strlen(m) != 0
exe 'let m="' .
\ substitute(m, '<\(.\{-1,}\)>', '"."\\<\1>"."', 'g') . '"'
if has('iconv')
" uncomment the following line to activate the workaround on linux
" let m = iconv(m, 'latin1', &encoding)
endif
endif
return 'bar'.m.'bar'
endfunction
inoremap bfb <c-r>=<sid>bar()<cr>
