Re: breakindent, take 2
What do you think? I prefer (c) from implementation, efficiency and
intuitivity perspective.
I agree. Strongly.
Based on popular demand, this patch implements, in addition,
'breakindentshift' (brishift). It seems to work well, report problems.
And please suggestions for some shorter names: breakindent is already
long enough, breakindentshift is not nice at all.

Re: Tip#166 Caps_lock and Escape switch and imwheel
Robert Cussons wrote: --snip-- So, on with the problem. I was using the excellent Tip#166 to switch the Caps Lock and Escape keys and it worked wonderfully. Then on Friday, I tried to install imwheel as non-root, don't know if this is possible, but I read the documentation and it didn't mention that it wasn't (incidentally, I was doing this following http://physics.ou.edu/~mcraven/mathmouse.html as a way of getting the mouse wheel to work properly in mathematica under Linux). Anyway I got complaints when trying to install it as it couldn't make the directory /etc/X11/imwheel as I cannot log in as root. So I gave up on that idea and as far as I was concerned had deleted anything to do with imwheel as I used its configure command to install under the prefix of my home directory. The problem is that now when I run the xmodmap ~/.speedswapper command that has worked up until now, the escape key behaves like Caps lock as intended, but the Caps lock key seems to be acting as both Caps lock AND escape, i.e. it will change me from insert to normal mode, but also turns on Caps lock! I am running KDE 3.3.2, Debian Sarge. The speedswapper file is as follows: !

Encoding
Hi everybody, I have just recently installed my new linux box. It runs openSUSE 10.2, and I have upgraded vim to version 7.0.243 . Before, I have used older vim versions (6 and older). In the past I have used ctrl-vdecimal_number to insert special characters (there are five uppercase and five lowercase exotic characters in Croatian language). A single byte was used to store each of these characters. However, in version 7 two bytes are used to store each of them! I don't know how to fix this problem. The value of LANG variable is en_US.UTF-8 and encoding is not mentioned in my vimrc file. Decimal values of these exotic characters are 200, 232, 198, 230, 208, 240, 169, 186, 174 and 190. Now 200 is replaced with two bytes: 195 and 136 (decimal) etc. The command :digraphs works fine and lists digraphs using iso-8859-1, I guess. The command :set encoding shows that encoding is utf-8 . Normally, we use the code page ISO-8859-2 here in Croatia. What can I do to force vim to use a single byte to store exotic character? Best regards, Damir Zucic http://physics.mefos.hr/zucic

This is not due to the vim version, Vim 6 is capable of handling Unicode well too. Unicode just was not set up to be the default on your old system. I don't know how to fix this problem. The value of LANG variable is en_US.UTF-8 So for start, set up your locale environment properly. en_US.UTF-8 is English with UTF-8 encoding (that is Unicode) which is definitely different from Croatian with ISO 8859-2. If you prefer English messages and number formats, etc., as I do, set at least LC_CTYPE to fix the character set. Decimal values of these exotic characters are 200, 232, 198, 230, 208, 240, 169, 186, 174 and 190. Note such sentence is generally meaningless unless you specify the encoding (I suppose it's ISO 8859-2 as you mention it below). The command :digraphs works fine and lists digraphs using iso-8859-1, I guess. Digraphs are not encoding dependent. Or they are encoding dependent, depending on how you look at it. The point is that digraphs insert the corresponding character in the current encoding, they do not insert a fixed byte or sequence of bytes. Now you use UTF-8, so they insert the characters in UTF-8 (they are generally *defined* using Unicode codepoints though). The command :set encoding shows that encoding is utf-8 . Normally, we use the code page ISO-8859-2 here in Croatia. What can I do to force vim to use a single byte to store exotic character? To set the encoding of edited files to ISO 8895-2, do set fileencoding=iso-8859-2 But I may suggest something, go with times and use UTF-8, at least for new files. 8bit charsets are so last millenium... If you set set fileencodings=utf-8,iso-8859-2 you will be able to edit both UTF-8 and ISO 8895-2 files. Yeti -- http://gwyddion.net/

Best regards, Damir Zucic http://physics.mefos.hr/zucic The fact that two (or more) memory bytes are used to store characters other than 0x00 to 0x7F is normal; it's part of the definition of UTF-8. To save your data on disk in such manner that each character occupies only one disk byte, set 'fileencoding' appropriately for your files. You will see [converted] when reading and writing ISO_8859-2 files, but again, this is normal, since Vim uses UTF-8 internally to represent the data in memory. See also the second NOTE paragraph under :help 'encoding'. You may want to add the following to your vimrc: if encoding !~?

Put each tag on a newline
exec line('y).','.line('z).'s/\s*/\r/ge'
Reformat using Vim's indenter
call cursor(line('y),1)
exec 'normal! '.(line('z)-line('y)+1).'=='
Delete the additional lines added
silent! exe norm! 'ydd'zdd

command! -range=% -nargs=0 FormatSGML line1,line2call Format_SGML()
At least you have some additional options now.

No Previous Regular expression
Using vim 7.0 on kubuntu 7.04 (feisty fawn amd 64) I've recently migrated from vim 6-something on slack 10.0 On my previous version and box, if I searched on an expression in one file, closed it and opened another, n would continue with the search. Now, I get an E35: No previous regular expression. I've imported all of my previous settings, .vimrc etc... so I don't know how to correct this. Any help is welcome. thanks tim

Any help is welcome. thanks tim If you close and reopen Vim, the last search pattern is remembered -- or not -- in the viminfo file. (It is one of the registers.) The search history can also be saved. See :help 'viminfo'. By default (unless set otherwise in the vimrc), in 'compatible' mode 50 lines for each register, and 20 lines of history, are remembered. If you mean in the same Vim session (e.g. by doing :e bar.txt after searching in foo.txt), then the search pattern should be remembered, unless there is something which explicitly clears it. An autocommand or a mapping, invoking :let @/ = '', could be such a something. Best regards, Tony. -- The cry has been that when war is declared, all opposition should therefore be hushed. A sentiment more unworthy of a free country could hardly be propagated. If the doctrine be admitted, rulers have only to declare war and they are screened at once from scrutiny ... In war, then, as in peace, assert the freedom of speech and of the press. Cling to this as the bulwark of all our rights and privileges. -- William Ellery Channing

A friend told me that he is developing a Firefox addon to emulate the Vi/Vim behaviors in all text areas in Firefox, without launching external applications. I'm looking forward to it. I can definitely recommend it. Especially considering the splendid UI of the ticket system I'm forced to use. Regards, Tobias -- In the future, everyone will be anonymous for 15 minutes.

plugins in vim 7.1
Hello, I recently upgraded from vim 7.0 to vim 7.1 (on ubuntu feisty) by compiling the vim7.1 tarball. However, it looks like my plugins are not working, For example, the plugin that used to highlight matching braces/parentheses is not doing so. I downloaded a cscope_maps.vim plugin for some cscope short-cuts and although the plugin seems to be getting loaded, the keystrokes don't seem to be working. The plugins are located at /usr/local/share/vim/vim71/plugins. thanks, -tushar.
