Adjusted list of features to vote on
Greetings, Vim users! Vim sponsors and registered Vim users can vote for features. The result can be seen here: http://www.vim.org/sponsor/vote_results.php Vim 7.0 has added a number of features that still appeared in the voting list. I have now updated the list to reflect the Vim 7.0 features. Removed features: - add tabbed windows - add undo tree (be able to go back to any previous situation) - add a :grep command that does not use an external command - add option to highlight the screen line (and column) of the cursor Changed features: - add intelligent completion - add more and better omni completion plugins - add more features to Vim scripting (arrays, lists, sorting, etc.) - add more features to Vim scripting - add more autocommand events (for :cd, start Insert mode, etc.) - add more autocommand events (for :cd, jump to tag, etc.) - add on-the-fly spell checking - improve on-the-fly spell checking If you voted for one of these, please go to the voting pages and adjust your votes: http://www.vim.org/sponsor/vote.php You need to login.

Google Summer of Code 2007 : Improve regexp performance
Hi all, I went through the above idea presented for google summer of code 2007 and found it interesting. In my opinion, incorporating Thompson NFA into regexp from the ground up is pretty cool. I also went through the alternate TRE (http://laurikari.net/tre/index.html) but couldn't verify whether its an implementation of Thompson NFA ( I will have to dig into it's source and find it out ). I would like to know further details (if any) regarding this project and the possible mentor(s). - Asiri

Case-sensitive :e globbing under cygwin?
This appears to be a bug to me, but I want to check before filing a bug report. I was unable to get any clarification on the vim mailing list. Under cygwin, :e file* will match in a case-insensitive manner. I believe this is wrong, since cygwin is emulating unix which is case-sensitive. Other tools, like bash, default to case-sensitive globbing. There is a bash option nocaseglob which allows bash to behave in a case-insensitive manner, but the default is unix-like. I believe vim under cygwin used to do case-sensitve filename globbing, but now it's doing it case-insensitively and I'd like to get it to revert to the old behavior. So, if there is a way to turn on/off case-sensitivity for :e file* globbing, then I would be happy to use it. If this is a build-time bug in the way vim is being built under cygwin, I can correspond with the cygwin maintainers to get it fixed. But, if neither of these apply, I will file a bug report/enhancement request for 1) adding an option to toggle case-sensitivity (a feature enhancement) and 2) making the default on cygwin be case-sensitive (a bug fix).

I would like to know further details (if any) regarding this project and the possible mentor(s). It has its own finite automata, which is based on a Thompson NFA, adding so called /tags/ in the mix for doing subgroup matching and fuzzy matching. It comes with three matchers/drivers: A backtracking one for when the pattern requires it (backrefences), a multithreaded/parallel one, that is, the standard two tables of active states one, and one for fuzzy matching (approximate matching). There's a nice paper about it as well (too actually, if you count the first one he wrote about his first implementation for . I actually wrote a simplification of his library, removing the approximate matching stuff, as part of my master's, which is well documented. I still haven't had time to put up the PDF, though. Sadly, both his and my implementation suffer from a bug in the subgroup matching of opposing repetitions, which would have to be fixed. Neither of us have been able to do so yet. Anyway, it would take an immense amount of work to turn Vim onto a new regex implementation. Vim has a whole range of its own stuff, like matching cursor positions and so on, and is tightly bound to the buffer implementation with its memlines and whatnot. Not to dishearten you, but I don't think this is a project that can be completed over a summer (not that it has to be, but you may want to keep that in mind).

Re: Case-sensitive :e globbing under cygwin?
Thanks, Tony, for your reply. As far as I can tell everything is set up to give case-sensitive globbing. Bash does case-sensitive globbing at the command line and in a simple script #!/bin/bash echo file* Do you believe vim is shelling out to do globbing under cygwin, rather than doing globbing internally? I tried to verify that vim is calling /bin/sh by replacing /bin/sh.exe with a script /bin/sh which leaves a debugging trail. But it appears that /bin/sh is not being called for :e file* (it is called for :sh, however). Is there an easy way to debug this from within vim? I see what appear to be various debugging commands in the source code. Is it easy to enable them and see their output somewhere? Is there anything else you can think of to solve this? -- John - Original Message From: A.J.Mechelynck [EMAIL PROTECTED] Is your cygwin bash set to case-sensitive globbing?

I'm using vim to edit (La)TeX files. Some non-ASCII characters from wild copy/paste give problems at the compilation (like the character - ' - ) and it takes for ever to identify them. I'm sure there is a vim command to smoke them out ? I'm not sure you've clearly defined non-ASCII characters (as it looks like the character you point out is ASCII 0x27, but I might be missing something), but if you mean things over 0x7f then you can do something like :%s/[^ -\x7f]//g to remove them. I don't know if you want to replace them with something smarter, as that may be more desired. Or, if you just want to find them, you can use /[\x80-\xff] This just uses the standard set-of-characters notation described at :help /[ though it does require that the 'l' flag is included in 'cpoptions' (text from the above help) to get the \xNN notation. Instead of the ranges given above (or in addition), there are some posix character classes, so you can do things like /[^[:print:]] or /[[:cntrl:]] to find classes of offenders. Hope this helps, -tim

ctrl-P is slow when set path for ctrl-W + ctrl F
Hi, I'm trying to use ctrl-W + ctrl F to enter header file. To do this I have to set path. However, after I set path to the directory of the header files, ctrl-P (auto-completion) getting very slow (it could take 1 sec to search for one header file). I'm wondering if there is anything wrong with my system. Is there any walk around? Thanks, Peng

Another possibility is gg^O (i.e., hit g twice, then Ctrl-O, all of them in Normal mode) which will adjust the display so that none (or, if the file is shorter than the window, as few as possible) of the tilde lines are showing.

weird path string on TAB line
Hi, I am using VIM7 on cygwin on WinXP. If I use vim -p file1 file2 to open my files, each tab has the file name, file1 and file2. This is right. If I use vim --remote-tab-silent file3 to open file3, then the tab of file3 has some path crumpled before file3 something like, \p\E\e\J\file3, it looks abbreviated path, it looks ugly. Any way I can get rid of the path, only file name on the tab? _ Rates near 39yr lows! $430K Loan for $1,399/mo - Paying Too Much?

Java syntax folding question
Hi, I using vim 7.0 on Windows XP and have just started trying to use vim with java source files. I want to have folding enabled based on syntax. From reading the help document, syntax highlighting is enabled and I set the foldmethod to syntax. But when I try to close a fold (from inside a method), I get a No fold found error message. I verified the syntax with set syntax and vim reported syntax=java. I tried the same for foldmethod and got foldmethod=syntax. I also verified that there is a java.vim under the $VIMRUNTIME\syntax. (though when I searched in this file for fold I didn't find anything). Am I missing some step? If anyone can help me with this to get folding working, that be greatly appreciated. thanks sundar

Yes, with a custom tabline. The following (from my vimrc) might inspire you to
write your own:
if exists(+guioptions)
set go-=e
endif
if exists(+showtabline)
function MyTabLine()
let s = ''
let t = tabpagenr()
let i = 1
while i = tabpagenr('$')
let buflist = tabpagebuflist(i)
let winnr = tabpagewinnr(i)
let s .= '%' . i . 'T'
let s .= (i == t ? '%1*' : '%2*')
let s .= ' '
let s .= i . ':'
let s .= winnr . '/' . tabpagewinnr(i,'$')
let s .= ' %*'
let s .= (i == t ? '%#TabLineSel#' : '%#TabLine#')
let file = bufname(buflist[winnr - 1])
let file = fnamemodify(file, ':p:t')
if file == ''
let file = '[No Name]'
endif
let s .= file
let i = i + 1
endwhile
let s .= '%T%#TabLineFill#%='
let s .= (tabpagenr('$') 1 ? '%999XX' : 'X')
return s
endfunction
set stal=2
set tabline=%!MyTabLine()
map F12 :tabnextCR
map!F12 C-O:tabnextCR
map S-F12 :tabprevCR
map!S-F12 C-O:tabprevCR
endif

Tony.
