I think the reason is, that on Windows using a pty may not always work.
This is briefly mentioned at :h 'termwintype'. If you sure it works for
you (because your Windows is new enough or you have winpty), you could
give it a shot in termdebug with the following patch applied and then
setting the termwintype option:
```patch
diff --git a/runtime/pack/dist/opt/termdebug/plugin/termdebug.vim

I'd like to see the game first. Unless it's some un-ethical usage of the
game play (or of the other logos used), that should be fine however.
It would be great, if you could link to the Vim.org homepage.

I don't understand the difference between those two checks. For the first one, you can call a function on VimEnter, check the flag and set your background color, see also the 'wincolor' setting. But how do you change the flag via the command line, if not during startup? You may also trigger a function on an OptionSet autocommand, that reacts to setting those option values after startup.

Or perhaps one can script something by throwing in marks to delimit the region and then match it using the \%'m atom (or possibly you don't even need the marks you can just try to get the virtcol for the region and then use the \%v atom instead).

Dear all, as you all know, we have had quite a few issues with our current hosting provider for the vim.org homepage. Therefore, I'd like to announce, that we'll be moving to a new hoster on tuesday, September 26th, 2023. I will set the database on the current OSDN instance at 20:00 CEST (14:00 EST) o'clock to readonly mode and so should be the old homepage. I'll also add a banner that this is the old homepage. Hopefully the switch will be done fast enough, that nobody notices it and we can finally continue to use the new homepage with proper database connections and ssl certificates. However, the code is at the same time switched from the current php 5 version to a new php 8 installation, which required a rewrite of some of the php pages and sql queries. Hopefully everything will still work as expected. The new IP address should then be 31.172.117.18 In case of any questions, please redirect them to the vim_dev mailing list. Finally, I'd like to thank a few people involved: - First of all, I'd like to thank Marc Schöchlin, who offered to take care of the new Vim.org homepage hosting and at the same time, spend some considerable amount of time to rewrite the homepage to php8. - I'd also like to thank Shuji Sado who supported us with the old OSDN.net hosting. - I'd also like to thank Jeff Chousterman and wavestack cloud for offering the infrastructure of the vim.org homepage. This should give us a modern and reliable base for the future. - And last but not least, thanks to Stefan Zehl for maintaining the DNS for such a long time. With all of your support this wouldn't be so easily possible! Thanks, Christian -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!

Fwd: Moving the Vim Homepage
Hi all, just as fyi it seems google blocked my message to the vim-use mailing list, for Spam reasons. Hopefully this goes through. -- Weitergeleitete Nachricht - Von: Christian Brabandt Datum: Donnerstag, 21. September 2023 um 14:42:37 UTC+2 Betreff: Moving the Vim Homepage An: v...@vim.org , vim_annou...@googlegroups.com Dear all, as you may have noticed, we have had some issues with the Vim.org Homepage and https:// access (see also issue https://github.com/vim/vim/issues/13079). It's actually even getting worse as there does no longer seem to be any valid ssl certificate available, while previously, only 1 out of 2 requests used an old ssl cert. I have no idea what is actually going on and my request for help to osdn.net and the OSChina did not succeed :( So we will be moving the Vim Homepage again. It depends a bit how fast we can get the infrastructure up and running and then we need to move the DNS record. I hope it should be doable until the end of the month *fingerscrossed*. In any case, once I know more details, I'll announce a maintenance window for the vim.org homepage here and on vim.org so that we can migrate the database properly and hopefully from then on, we will have a better maintained vim.org homepage again. @CC to our future homepage maintainer and the DNS admin so they know that something will be coming.

I haven't done any measurements but I noticed converting to Vim9 script helps, if you are calling your scripts many times.

Sorry, I must have messed it up when adding the Commit prefix to the script. Somehow the mercurial mirror lost some changes.

I have never heard about hyperfine¹ before, but it always seems to spawn a new shell and even so it is supposed to correct the shell spawning time, perhaps there is something going wrong?

Well, it may be, that Vim just receives instead of . Vim even has its own method of fixing this by using the :fixdel command. Nowadays one usually uses stty erase ^? or similar to configure the backspace thing (or one configures the terminal directly what it should send for backspace). Long are the times gone, when I needed to fiddle with that ;) So I would first try inside vim, what is actually printed when typing in insert mode and from there we can continue.

Hm, my guess is, that in the past you used Debians/Ubuntus vim-addon-manager to manage system plugins and at one time you had installed the tlib package.

Hi, I am not sure. What is the script id? I might be able to check it on the server (no promises however). Also is there a reason, you are using the tgz/tar.gz extension?

I suppose because the filename is still stored twice within the viminfo
file with two different paths? Open your viminfo file (please make a
backup of it before messing with it) and search for the filename, for
which this issue occurs. You most likely find it there twice and you
need to make sure to have it there only once (with whatever path you
want to access the file).
> So, my question is, what is the practical point of this switch?
It uses a different viminfo file than the default one. By itself it
won't help, because you still have the problem, that you are editing the
same file under two different paths, so it looks like 2 different files
for Vim.

Christian

You are editing the same file using 2 different paths, so Vim thinks those are different files. I don't think there is a way to convince Vim that those are the same files, thus the only other option would be to edit your viminfo file manually and carefully and change the path there.

Vim supports several different SQL dialects out-of-the box, but it looks like PostgreSQL is not available by default (and it assumes that if no dialect is specified, it will try to use Oracle SQL). The above looks invalid to my eye for Oracle (but it's been a awhile since I used Oracle SQL intensively), so I wouldn't expect this to work properly. So perhaps looks for specific PostgreSQL syntax file. The already mentioned pgsql from lifepillar seems to be specific for PostgreSQL (even so it seems to have the same issue as mentioned elsewhere).

looks like Vim thinks the ':' belongs to the variable name.
I think it should work, if you add parenthesis around it like this:
#v+
substitute(path[(features_idx):],'\v(features\/.*)$', '\1', '')
#v-

No, we do not provide cumulative patches. If you are installing vim, best is always to go from the lastest patch in the master branch and keep it updated regularly.

In most cases the latter are false alarms. When I am not on a PC (meaning, not logged in to the Google Web Interface), I usually just approve the mail via mail. But that does unfortunately does not white-list the sender, so further mails from him need to be approved and may cause additional delay.

Ah, I only see it with an additional empty line above it and it will
then be matched as markDownCodeBlock. Note my syntax/markdown has the
following definition:
,
| syn region markdownCodeBlock start="^\n\( \{4,}\|\t\)" end="^\ze \{,3}\S.*$"
keepend
`
and the file is from Oct 13, 2022 as mentioned in the header.
So I would recommend to update vim or the markdown syntax file.
Best,
Christian

I cannot seem to reproduce this. Are you using a custom markdown syntax plugin? Can you reproduce this starting from vim --clean?

I believe gundo provides a way to directly show the diff between various undo states¹ and I think you are right, the only way to do this is to manually safe the state of the buffer and run a diff over that file with the current buffer. I don't think there is an simpler way than that. ¹) see e.g. https://simnalamburt.github.io/vim-mundo/#usage and search for preview pane Best, Christian -- Sei sparsam, koste es was es wolle. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
