The point is: let the variable name reflect what it contains, don't re-use the same variable for something else. That way your code will be a lot more readable. let fooline = one,two,three let foowords = split(fooline, ',') Fair enough, but in most of the cases where this came up, I never really cared about the 'fooline' variable. It only existed as an intermediate to 'foowords'. My choices were either: 1) put everything in one assignment, which can get long and messy and harder to read, or 2) split it into two assignments by declaring an extra 'foowords' that I never really care about. Reusing the variable makes sense to me in this case, and this seemed like a harmless and logical addition, but I guess you're the Bram.

What netrw v102h does (and its available at my website, http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#VimFuncs as Network Oriented Reading, Writing, and Browsing) is save global settings, make them netrw-friendly, do the browsing thing, restore the settings. In that case, use the g: prefix. For example, try the following experiment: :set spell :new :setl spell! :echo spell l:spell g:spell I think you should get 0 0 1 (as I do). So spell references the local value of the option, not the global value. Now, consider the lines let w:spellkeep = spell ... if exists(w:spellkeep)|let spell = w:spellkeep |unlet w:spellkeep|endif in $VIMRUNTIME/autoload/netrw.vim . The first sets w:spellkeep to the local value, and the second sets the global value.

Although there is no stardard option for imap to do this (make incompete

does what you want.
Does the following do what you want:
-
:imap h c-r=PrecedingChars(6) !=# 'foreac' ? 'h' : ExpandForeach() cr

Explanation: this remaps 'h' character to check 6 preceding chars.
If 6 preceding chars are 'foreac', then it is expanded into your you
foreach-template. Otherwise, literas 'h' is inserted. Since this is
1-char-length mapping, there's no delay and no invisibilities.
If you wonder where is expansion (rhs) of your template, it's
inside function ExpandForeach(). The function PrecedingChars()
is generic and doesn't change when you change rhs of your template.

If you find this too complex, and you don't want to
press space or tab after 'foreach' (supposedly because it
makes 8 chars instead of 7?) , then can I suggest either this simple weirdity:
:iab foreac foreach ...
(In which case, you get to type 'foreac' then space, which makes
total 7 characters not 8.), or this mapping
:imap ctrl-Zf foreach
which is economy of 5 chars on the lhs side. (You type ctrl-z then f)

Re: Awareness of python import semantics for [i, etc.?
On Wed, Jul 12, 2006 at 03:48:22PM -0700, John Reese wrote: So there's this handy [i command that, when filetype=c, displays the first line mentioning the identifier under the cursor, which will often be its definition. The especially handy thing about it is that it knows about #include lines and will search through them as well when looking for the first match. You can also put the cursor over the .h file between the quotes and hit gf, and if the path and suffixesadd options are set appropriately, it will jump you to the .h file. The point is, vim can be configured to know how to find C include files and use them in various ways. I was wondering if there was a way to get it to have a similar level of knowledge about Python modules. In C, #include z.h will look for z.h in the current directory. That's easy enough... the Python equivalent is something like import z But that actually just loads z.py from the current directory (or from a bunch of other possible places, including system library directories and directories listed in the PYTHONPATH environment variable) and puts the name z into your namespace, and if you want to refer to something defined in z.py, you qualify it: z.someFunction(). A Python-aware [i would know that if I have the cursor on the someFunction in z.someFunction, then it needs to look for the word someFunction in z.py. There's also this from path import syntax: from a.b.c import z which might mean that relative to the current directory there's a file a/b/c/z.py that would need to be looked through if you used [i. So, anyway, this all seems very complicated, but I figured it wasn't entirely out of the question that something was supported or available, especially given the existence of the compiled-in Python scripting option. Does anyone know of anything to let vim understand Python import syntax and use it for [i and similar commands? I am not sure if everything you want to do is possible or easy, but I suggest you start here: :help include-search :help 'path' :help 'include' :help 'includeexpr' See, for example, the ftplugin files for plaintex and tex.

The problem is that { is included in the 'matchpairs' option but
not in b:match_words. The matchit script recognizes that { is a
matching character, but does not have a rule for it, so it defaults to
the built-in % matching behavior. You can confirm this with
:normal! %
The solution is to add '{:}' to b:match_words ; probably also '(:)'
and '[:]' while you are at it. Also, I notice that ftplugin/php.vim
:source's ftplugin/html.vim and so inherits the HTML setting of
b:match_skip . I think that PHP would do better with the default skip
behavior, so it should :unlet this variable.
I am cc'ing the maintainer of ftplugin/php.vim .

taming omni completion
I'm using Vim 7.0 on WinXP SP2. I don't think I did anything specific to turn on omni-completion (perhaps it's on by default? I'm editing Python files), and I'm in no rush to start using it, although if it was non-intrusive I wouldn't mind leaving it on. The problem is that I've recently modified my path variable in Vim, and now whenever omni-completion kicks in -- and it's often -- Vim comes to a lng stop, 'scanning tags'. I take it that the scan goes through all files in my path. Admittedly my path is now fairly deep: let home='C:\Documents\ and\ Settings\Maciek\My\ Documents\Home' let path.=','.home.'\python\**' let path.=','.home.'\research\**' let path.=',c:\Python24\Libs\**' Probably the last entry is the killer. Still, I chose to include these directories/trees in my path as I find the :find command very useful, much more than the omni-completion; hence if push comes to shove, I'll ditch omni-complete first. My question: can anything be done to improve the situation on the omni-completion front? Obviously the constant scanning is killing me; making it faster without sacrificing path variable would be nice. Also, I'd like to be able to trigger it only when I ask for it, and not have it automatic. Also, since I use ctrl-n and ctrl-p a lot to complete the word under cursor *using only the current file*, I'd prefer omni-completion to be under a different key combo. Also, I would've thought omni-completion would use some sort of caching mechanism, rather than rescanning all the files every single time. Doesn't it do that? Most of the time I hit Ctrl-C to interrupt the scanning of tags, so I can get on with my work, but I could have sworn I let it run once or twice to completion before, with no discernible improvement on subsequent completions...

You are probably talking about the insert-mode completion rather than the omni-completion. Omni completion is meant is similar to the MS intellisense, and is not turned on by default. You also need specific plugins to use that. In contrast, the insert-mode completion is on by default, and gets triggered when you use ^N, ^P etc. in insert mode. Also, this completion doesn't use your 'path' but by default your tags setting, and all the loaded buffers etc. This can be customized by using the 'complete' option (e.g., you can completely avoid looking into the tags files). It is possible that you recently added more tags files which is causing this delay in completion. Actually, without any change in tags files, I also saw a difference in performance of the insert-mode completion in Vim7 compared to Vim6.3, and not sure if disabling the menu will make any difference. You might want to check removing menu and menuone from 'completeopt' will make any difference (this should disable popup menu). Since you mentioned that you find the :find command very useful, might I put in a plug for my lookupfile.vim plugin? When you use LUPath command, it cleverly takes advantage of the Vim7 completion menu (which works even when you disable it in 'completeopt') to lookup matching files as you type in a partial filename.

Re: auto upper/lower in replace pattern based on search pattern?
Thanks--keepcase.vim is great. So now with :%s/firstname/\=KeepCase(submatch(0), 'LastName')/ig I can replace all instances of firstname with lastname firstName with lastName FirstName with LastName But \=KeepCase(submatch(0), '') is a mouthful. Not a problem; that exact expression does what I'll want 99% of the time, so I've already mapped it to a control-key. And there are other ways to abbreviate. Still, this seems *such* a useful function in a programmer's editor, it seems worthwhile to build it into the :substitute command as some kind of optional behavior. How about one of these: :s/firstname/LastName/k ['k' for keepcase] :set MaGiC or some kind of delimiter that can be stuck into a pattern to say use KeepCase() on this part. OK, I know there aren't many delimiters that are available at this point. Does this make any sense as a possible future feature?

How to Override Backup Control to Implement File Versioning?
Hi, I've read through the manual and checked out the FAQ, but I can't see how to implement file versioning in Vim. What I'd like to do is mimic the VMS file versioning feature wherein if you edit a file (say, file.txt) , the original is saved as file.txt.1. Subsequent backups of the same file are saved as file.txt.2, file.txt.3 and so forth. In this case, the most recent backup would be file.txt.3 and second oldest backup would be file.txt.2 and the original file would be file.txt.1. Of course, if there are no changes to the file, then no incremental backup file is created. I looked into writing a script to do this but, being new to Vim scripting, I didn't see a way to hook into the internal backup logic, or if that's even the right way to accomplish this. I'd like it to be automatic, so the user doesn't have to do anything different when saving a file (like having to run a script before saving.) Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Re: taming omni completion
Maciej Kalisiak wrote: I'm using Vim 7.0 on WinXP SP2. I don't think I did anything specific to turn on omni-completion (perhaps it's on by default? I'm editing Python files), and I'm in no rush to start using it, although if it was non-intrusive I wouldn't mind leaving it on. The problem is that I've recently modified my path variable in Vim, and now whenever omni-completion kicks in -- and it's often -- Vim comes to a lng stop, 'scanning tags'. I take it that the scan goes through all files in my path. Admittedly my path is now fairly deep: let home='C:\Documents\ and\ Settings\Maciek\My\ Documents\Home' let path.=','.home.'\python\**' let path.=','.home.'\research\**' let path.=',c:\Python24\Libs\**' Probably the last entry is the killer. Still, I chose to include these directories/trees in my path as I find the :find command very useful, much more than the omni-completion; hence if push comes to shove, I'll ditch omni-complete first. You don't mention what you are actually doing. Omni completion should only do something when using CTRL-X CTRL-O in Insert mode. Otherwise it should not do anything. However, it's possible that mappings change behavior. Then where does this mapping come from? Use this to find out: :verbose imap My question: can anything be done to improve the situation on the omni-completion front? Obviously the constant scanning is killing me; making it faster without sacrificing path variable would be nice. Also, I'd like to be able to trigger it only when I ask for it, and not have it automatic. Also, since I use ctrl-n and ctrl-p a lot to complete the word under cursor *using only the current file*, I'd prefer omni-completion to be under a different key combo. Hmm, perhaps you are not talking about omni completion but about normal Insert mode completion. This now scans other files sooner than in previous versions, so that the menu can be filled. Note that you don't have to wait for this to complete, typing a character will stop it. Also, I would've thought omni-completion would use some sort of caching mechanism, rather than rescanning all the files every single time. Doesn't it do that? Most of the time I hit Ctrl-C to interrupt the scanning of tags, so I can get on with my work, but I could have sworn I let it run once or twice to completion before, with no discernible improvement on subsequent completions... Caching would add to the complexity, and Insert mode completion already is too complex. It needs to be cleaned up first. -- You have heard the saying that if you put a thousand monkeys in a room with a thousand typewriters and waited long enough, eventually you would have a room full of dead monkeys.

The especially handy thing about it is that it knows about #include lines and will search through them as well when looking for the first match. You can also put the cursor over the .h file between the quotes and hit gf, and if the path and suffixesadd options are set appropriately, it will jump you to the .h file. The point is, vim can be configured to know how to find C include files and use them in various ways. I was wondering if there was a way to get it to have a similar level of knowledge about Python modules. In C, #include z.h will look for z.h in the current directory. That's easy enough... the Python equivalent is something like import z But that actually just loads z.py from the current directory (or from a bunch of other possible places, including system library directories and directories listed in the PYTHONPATH environment variable) and puts the name z into your namespace, and if you want to refer to something defined in z.py, you qualify it: z.someFunction(). A Python-aware [i would know that if I have the cursor on the someFunction in z.someFunction, then it needs to look for the word someFunction in z.py. There's also this from path import syntax: from a.b.c import z which might mean that relative to the current directory there's a file a/b/c/z.py that would need to be looked through if you used [i. So, anyway, this all seems very complicated, but I figured it wasn't entirely out of the question that something was supported or available, especially given the existence of the compiled-in Python scripting option. Does anyone know of anything to let vim understand Python import syntax and use it for [i and similar commands? I am not sure if everything you want to do is possible or easy, but I suggest you start here: :help include-search :help 'path' :help 'include' :help 'includeexpr' See, for example, the ftplugin files for plaintex and tex. A lot of this is already incorporated into the $VIMRUNTIME/ftplugin/python.vim plugin. For example, gf works fine with Python import statements. I don't know about [i because I never use it. There are a number of Python plugins at vim.sf.net. One of those may have what you want if the standard python.vim plugin doesn't already make [i just work.

The issue for me is that it doesn't really stop immediately; it stops at the end of the current scanning stage (i.e., it will stop once it *finishes* scanning the current object being scanned, be it tags or an actual file). This wasn't noticeable earlier, or at least it never drew my attention, but now each object scan takes somewhere between 2 to 5 seconds, which is odd. This is on a fairly fast machine. The included Python files, as well as the tags file, are fairly simple and short (most 200 lines, a handful ~1000 lines; the tags file in current directory has about 1000 lines). 2 to 5 seconds seems absurdly too much time for said files, no? Hence, although an improvement, hitting a key immediately after a ^P, still takes about 5 seconds to stop... way too much if you're used to pressing ^P every 3rd or 4th identifier... BTW, my previous estimate of the full scan was incorrect; I've never had the stomach to wait through the whole thing... I just timed it more explicitly, but aborted past the 30 seconds mark... it wasn't nearly done 10% of included files...

The problem is that { is included in the 'matchpairs' option but
not in b:match_words. The matchit script recognizes that { is a
matching character, but does not have a rule for it, so it defaults to
the built-in % matching behavior. You can confirm this with
:normal! %
The solution is to add '{:}' to b:match_words ; probably also '(:)'
and '[:]' while you are at it. Also, I notice that ftplugin/php.vim
:source's ftplugin/html.vim and so inherits the HTML setting of
b:match_skip . I think that PHP would do better with the default skip
behavior, so it should :unlet this variable.
I am cc'ing the maintainer of ftplugin/php.vim .

Thanks a lot, it works but I also notice that else if is not part of the
matching, although else if is a valid expression in php:
It matches if, else, elseif
but it doesn't match if, else, else if
How can I include else if in the matching?
Many thanks in advance.
