I tried all combinations of flags, but can't get vim to

It's a bug. Here is the patch. Please test it carefully, thanks very

 Announcing:  Vim (Vi IMproved) version 7.1


 This is a stable release of Vim, version 7.1.  Since version 7.0 lots of
 problems were fixed and runtime files were updated.  It has been one
 year and five days since 7.0!

 Most of Vim 7.1 was already available as patches for quite a while.  A
 couple of test versions were made to spot problems in the distribution.
 Therefore Vim 7.1 can be considered very stable.

 If you are using an older version, it is highly recommended you install
 Vim 7.1.  Several crashing bugs and a security issue were fixed.

 Once you have installed Vim 7.1 you can find details about the
 changes since Vim 7.0 with :help version-7.1.

 I will not make an Amiga or OS/2 binary for Vim 7.1.  A Mac version is
 hopefully available soon on http://macvim.org/

Actually, this is a repository bug.  src/auto/config.h is

Yes, it's a bug. I can fix the problem, but not yet. Because I shall
also need to delete the corresponding files in the CVS repository to

I was still discussing what should actually be there, and making sure
that SVN contains that.

In my opinion vim7 should get you the latest stable version.  So far
that is 7.0.243, thus 7.0 with patches.  As soon as Vim 7.1 is out of
beta then vim7 should get you Vim 7.1.

vim7.1 should get you the latest version of Vim 7.1.  So far that is
the beta version.  After the release it will be the stable version, thus
the same as vim7.

Still need to check that it actually works this way.


It's already this way.


There might also be other ways to get one of these, but that is less
relevant.

In my opinion we should keep it easy for the downloader to select one of
the available versions.  The download page would only need one or two
alternatives.

I have never maintained a SVN repository, thus have no idea how
difficult or easy these things are!


I've found an easy way to solve that problem. So now can we can announce?

svn switch can only switch from a directory into another directory
inside the same repository. It doesn't allow the user to switch from
one server to another server. So you will not be able to switch from
svn.sourceforge.net to vim.svn.sourceforge.net. So you can try to
switch to https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vim/branches/vim7.1

svn.sourceforge.net sometimes gives out 403 forbidden errors when
doing some maintaining work. The sf.net staff recommended to use
vim.svn.sourceforge.net instead of svn.sourceforge.net. However, if
you don't want to do any maintaining work, I think both URL will be
OK.



 I've a question, though: isn't bleeding-edge development done in
 https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/vim/trunk ? That /would/ be the
 appropriate line for the latest sources, right?


I don't know. I'm still asking Bram for the latest sources. Currently,
trunk and 7.1 branch will be the same.



I hope so :)

Could you please give me the most bleeding-edge sources?

2007-05-08 Thread Edward L. Fox

Hi Bram,

I noticed that you also maintained another CVS repository besides the
sf.net's CVS repository. And many changes to that internal CVS won't
be applied to the sf.net's CVS repository unless a large release is to
be made.

In my opinion, as the SVN repository is now standardized, could you
please give me the most bleeding-edge sources so that I can commit
them into the trunk/ directory of the SVN repository, and some users
who wish to use the unstable experimental version then can help you to
test the code.


Best regards,

  Shouldn't there be vim7.1a (the a'th candidate for 7.1) today,
  and eventually, when Bram releases version 7.1, vim7.1?

  So is the last argument to svn co correct?  And isn't today's
  branch/trunk/whatever 7.1a rather than 7.1?


7.1, not 7.1a.

Because as the alphabetical version changes so fast, personally I
don't want to create too many branches for that.

You're not the first; there seems to have been a f*ckup in the svn commit
lately. I suggest you scrap your existing 7.1a sources and restart from
scratch, by downloading the 7.1a.000 sources then applying the 7.1a.001 patch.
Here are the files whose download I recommend:

1) the unpatched archives
http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/unix/vim-7.1a.tar.bz2
http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/extra/vim-7.1a-extra.tar.gz
http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/extra/vim-7.1a-lang.tar.gz

The first one is not a typo: even for Windows, I recommend the *Unix* + extra
+ lang sources. Together, they have exactly one copy of every source file
needed to compile Vim for *any* platform including Windows.

Unpack them on top of each other at what will become your Vim directory for
compiling, maybe something like D:\build\vim : they will create a subfolder
vim71a and place all the sources in it, creating subfolders as needed.

I don't know if you have a bz2 decompresser program, or if your version of
patch will accept the patch format. In both cases, MinGW may or may not
offer the necessary packages (look there first) but I know Cygwin does. (Even
WinZip knows about the .tar and .gz formats.)

2) the patch
http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/patches/7.1a/7.1a.001

Download it (and optionally its sibling files README MD5 and MD5SUMS) into a
newly-created subfolder named (in my example) D:\build\vim\vim71a\patches then
apply it by using (IIUC)

D:
cd \build\vim\vim70
patch -p0 patches\7.1a.001



Could you please tell me the differences between svn repository and
your downloaded and patched sources? In fact #262 is a broken
committing because the patch 7.1a.001 was applied to 7.0.243, so the
svn sources are broken. But #263 is just synced from the cvs
repository. So if it is broken, so is cvs.


See details at http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compile.htm but
replace everywhere the directory name .../vim70/... by .../vim71a/..., even in
the name of what will become your production 7.1a $VIMRUNTIME after
compiling and installing.

I used Cygwin gcc and Make_cyg.mak but using MingGW and Make_ming.mak is not
very different. I trust you will know what to change in the procedure to cater
for any differences between them.


Best regards,
Tony.

These tags are automatically updated when the files are committed into

 You're not the first; there seems to have been a f*ckup in the svn commit

 scratch, by downloading the 7.1a.000 sources then applying the
 7.1a.001 patch.
 Here are the files whose download I recommend:

 1) the unpatched archives
 http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/unix/vim-7.1a.tar.bz2
 http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/extra/vim-7.1a-extra.tar.gz
 http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/extra/vim-7.1a-lang.tar.gz

 The first one is not a typo: even for Windows, I recommend the *Unix*
 + extra
 + lang sources. Together, they have exactly one copy of every source file
 needed to compile Vim for *any* platform including Windows.

 Unpack them on top of each other at what will become your Vim
 directory for
 compiling, maybe something like D:\build\vim : they will create a
 subfolder
 vim71a and place all the sources in it, creating subfolders as needed.

 I don't know if you have a bz2 decompresser program, or if your
 version of
 patch will accept the patch format. In both cases, MinGW may or may not
 offer the necessary packages (look there first) but I know Cygwin
 does. (Even
 WinZip knows about the .tar and .gz formats.)

 2) the patch
 http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unstable/patches/7.1a/7.1a.001

 Download it (and optionally its sibling files README MD5 and MD5SUMS)
 into a
 newly-created subfolder named (in my example)
 D:\build\vim\vim71a\patches then
 apply it by using (IIUC)

 D:
 cd \build\vim\vim70
 patch -p0 patches\7.1a.001


 Could you please tell me the differences between svn repository and
 your downloaded and patched sources? In fact #262 is a broken
 committing because the patch 7.1a.001 was applied to 7.0.243, so the
 svn sources are broken. But #263 is just synced from the cvs
 repository. So if it is broken, so is cvs.

 See details at
 http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compile.htm but
 replace everywhere the directory name .../vim70/... by .../vim71a/...,
 even in
 the name of what will become your production 7.1a $VIMRUNTIME after
 compiling and installing.
[...]

My downloaded and patched sources (from the ftp repository, thus bypassing
both cvs and svn) are Bram's official 7.1a.000 full sources and Bram's
official 7.1a.001 patch. If (as you're saying) the svn repository mistakenly
applied the 7.1a.001 patch against the 7.0.243 sources, by doing as I suggest
you won't make that error. And I don't know whether or not the CVS repository
is broken, but AFAIK the FTP uploads are made directly under Bram's own
responsibility, and IIUC those aren't broken (but they're incremental: you got
to apply the patches yourself).


I've already downloaded the ftp version and applied the patch. And in
my previous post I gave out the diff information between the ftp
version and the svn version. In fact nearly every file is the same
except the cvs version tags. spellfile.vim is different but the svn
version is much more fresh. And ftp version even has some unused
folders and files such as CVS directory. So... I don't think I need to
commit my patched ftp version into svn repository. Any suggestions?

Tony.

Well, currently the svn repository has no tags, branches and
trunk, unlike most of the other svn repositories. But that's not
because it's a mirror of a non-svn repository - cvs can also uses tags
and branches. The main reason is, Bram doesn't use cvs for
development, either. He maintains another repository internally. So
both cvs and svn are doing the same thing as an ftp server.


But you can do valuable service and still do it wrong [...]

Once again, being different does not imply being wrong.  We should not

Yes. If once needed, we can create the needed trunk, branches,
tags directories very simply with just a few commands. So just don't

Anyway, if the code mirrored on that svn server belongs only to the 7.0
(release) code tree, there are no branches, since every patchlevel comes
linearly on top on the one before, and there is one set of files applicable to
all platforms and featuresets.

_If_ there comes a 7.0.244, _and_ it branches out from 7.0.243 away from
7.1a.000 and 7.1a.001, _and_ both 7.0 and 7.1a are further mirrored on svn,
_then_ there will maybe be a reason to define a branch point. But not before.


Bram won't make such branches. He always commit patches linearly. If
he one day can finally realize that how valuable the branches are,
we'll create the tags and branches directories in the svn directory
right away. It only costs a few commands. :-)

I have to disagree. The svn maintainer does valuable service

I'd like to really thank the svn updater for keeping the svn updated.

The reason why updates did not make it to svn was that cvs
server was down, as Bram explained above.


I don't think so. I guess the reason why updates did not make it to
svn was that the svn committer was out for holiday. Because the svn
committing work has nothing to do with the cvs service. It only
depends on the ftp service: the committer checks out the patches from
the ftp, not from cvs.

Yes, I admit that you are right. But unfortunately Vim is not
developing in Bazaar's way, at least not that way currently.

Vim has a very very large TODO list here:

ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/doc/todo.txt

I sometimes guess it would be nice to import the todo list into some
tracking system such as trac, and then a lot of *submitters* could
participate into the development concurrently. But sadly, most of us
are not able to understand Vim's source code as clearly as Bram. I
also submitted some dirty patches and Bram had to correct many
mistakes for me. So there can't be more *submitters* until some of us
could spend as much time as Bram.



 - What devel tree? I'll believe that a 7.1 is on the rails when I see at
 least an alpha. Before that, AFA-anyone-CT, there's no devel tree.
 Let's not presume about what we know nothing about.

Hence presume.


If you had browsed the svn repository, you'll discovered that there
are no trunk, branches, tags directories. So... You know what I
mean...


 - It's not anyone, it's Bram Moolenaar and no-one else; and since he
 now has a full-time job again, it's a small sort of miracle that he
 still finds some time for Vim.

Even if BM is the only one who can actually make a release, I'd imagine others
have opinions on the matter. Anyway, I was just wondering.


That's why Yzis branched out from Vim project. And then, they played so badly...

I didn't forget it, I just had to go away while waiting for the previous

So... Why not just commit the code to the CVS repository without

I haven't heard from people who have actually made changes to this

This script works perfectly. Edd Barrett also solved another problem
made by the previous maintainer that the leading space doesn't appear
under xhtml mode, which I didn't solved last time I modified this
script. Thanks Edd!

But we should change one thing before we include this patch into the
official version. In the patch file, line 97:

+execute normal! A\npre { font-family: courier; color:  . s:fgc
. ; background-color:  . s:bgc . ; }\e

Should be:

+execute normal! A\npre { font-family: Courier, monospace; color:
 . s:fgc . ; background-color:  . s:bgc . ; }\e

As W3C suggested, every font-family indication must finish with a
*GENERIC* font family name, possible values are serif, sans-serif
or monospace. So I added monospace here.

Temporary solution (was: Malformed character ...)

2006-08-14 Thread Edward L. Fox

Hi Bram,

As the problem is caused by iconv and we won't be able to fix the
problem soon, and this problem influences gb2312 - cp936 (gbk)
converting only, so I suggest to remove this line from
runtime/lang/menu_zh_cn.gb2312.vim:

scriptencoding gb2312

Because gbk is a super set of gb2312, so we don't need to do any
converting when parsing gb2312-encoded script under gbk environment,
and then everything will be OK. I'll report this problem to the
maintainer of libiconv as soon as I find out the problem.

By the way, thinelephant told me that he sent you a patch of this
translation file some weeks ago. Could you please include his change
in this patch? We can have these three things to be done in this
patch:

1. Add gbk and gb18030 as aliases of cp936;

2. Merge the translation patch of thinelephat.

3. Delete the scriptencoding line in the translation file.


Best regards,

Edward L. Fox

 translation file some weeks ago. Could you please include his change
 in this patch? We can have these three things to be done in this
 patch:

 1. Add gbk and gb18030 as aliases of cp936;

 2. Merge the translation patch of thinelephat.

 3. Delete the scriptencoding line in the translation file.

I think I have done all this now.  I'll make a patch for the aliases
later.


Thanks very much~

Edward had it on Windows. From :help encoding-values I gather that
Chinese and prc are alias to cp936 / euc-cn. Maybe gbk and gb18030
can be added to the family?


I'm using Debian Etch. But I had a look at the Windoze system and
found that cp936 is supported well in both Linux and Windoze, however,
GBK is not supported by any of them.

euc-cn is an alias of GB2312, which is only a subset of GBK. So we
should not put them together. GB18030 is not exactly the same with GBK
but 99% of them is the same, the remaining different part is cared by
nobody in the world, and is very very complicated and very very
difficult to support. Moreover, very few X servers support this
encoding. So I suggest to alias GB18030 to cp936, too, simply and
wrongly. :-)

After having discussed about the charset, I think it's right time to
do some work on the malformed characters in the toolbar tooltips. I
made a patch and solved the problem yesterday (or at least it was
seemed to be solved). Can anybody review my changes and give some
suggestions? Thanks.

 I think I solved the problem! That was caused by iconv.

size_t iconv(iconv_t cd,
  char **inbuf, size_t *inbytesleft,
  char **outbuf, size_t *outbytesleft);

 The parameter inbytesleft and outbytesleft should all include the
 trailing '\0' byte. In the previous version of gvim, we passed the
 parameter as the length of the string, excluding the trailing '\0'. So
 it is 1 byte less than the correct value.

This is not quite so.  iconv() does not require the terminating NUL (it
can also be used to convert part of a string).  If it does require the
NUL then iconv() is broken.  That's unlikely though.


I wrote a short piece of testing code to test iconv with Chinese
characters. The fact is, if the last character is a Chinese character,
it is always malformed after converting. So I think it should be
necessary to pass the length including the trailing '\0' to iconv.

#include iconv.h

int main(void)
{
   char inbuffer[256];
   char outbuffer[256];
   int fd;

   fd = iconv_open(cp936, euc-cn);

   for (;;)
   {
   int inlength, outlength;
   char *inptr, *outptr;
   gets(inbuffer);
   inlength = strlen(inbuffer);

   inptr = inbuffer;
   outptr = outbuffer;
   iconv(fd, inptr, inlength, outptr, outlength);
   printf(%s\n, outbuffer);
   }

   iconv_close(fd);

   return 0;
}

Your change suggests that the length that is passed should be one more.
Thus only one byte of the last double-byte character is currently
converted.  I can't quickly figure out where the wrong length is
computed or passed.  You probably already know the call stack, please
have a look at where the length comes from.  It's probably an off-by-one
error somewhere.


I traced the code again and again but nothing special happened. You
called string_convert and pass 0 as the length of the string, so in
string_convert_ext you calculates the length of the string with
STRLEN, then call iconv_string, last iconv. There is nothing wrong
with the length anywhere. So... Maybe it is still iconv's fault.

What do you mean by system encoding?  How does Vim see this?


I meant the $LANG variable.

GBK is right an alias of cp936, so it is proper to add this alias
entry into mbyte.c. But the situation with GB18030 was much more
complicated and the current version of gvim is not able to handle it
correctly. About GB18030 there is another long and not-so-funny but
ridiculous story. If you like, I can tell you the detailed GOSSIP

Because over 99% part of GB18030 and GBK is the same, and the

The parameter inbytesleft and outbytesleft should all include the

parameter as the length of the string, excluding the trailing '\0'. So
it is 1 byte less than the correct value.

As we know, every Chinese character is presented with 2 bytes in GBK encoding:

 AABBCCDD
 \--/
 4 characters

Because we passed the parameter as the length of the string (8 in this
example), so iconv treated the input string as 1 byte less (7 in this
example), then the 2nd but last letter was not able to be converted
because it is only half of a character, so gvim changed it to a
question mark:

 AABBCC?D

After that, gvim tried to convert the remaining 1 byte to the target
encoding but also failed. Then vim changed it to a question mark, too.

 AABBCC??

That is why every last character of the tooltip became 2 question
marks. Menu doesn't get malformed because most of the menu items are
not ended with a Chinese character. In fact, some menu item ends with
Chinese character also get malformed.

The menu.vim file should never change 'encoding'.  It should load menus
that are appropriate for the current 'encoding' and language.


But gvim doesn't support an encoding named 'gbk'. If the system
encoding is 'gbk', the menu and toolbar get malformed. In the past two
years (or more), all gvim users in mainland China should add the
following two lines in their .vimrc if they are using Linux with GBK
encoding:

set enc=cp936
so $VIMRUNTIME/delmenu.vim
so $VIMRUNTIME/menu.vim

That's why I had wanted to change the encoding value in menu.vim. :-)


If the intention is to have the default for 'encoding' use something
specific in $LANG then this must be done in enc_locale() in src/mbyte.c


I modified mbyte.c, added gbk as an alias of cp936, then the
menubar was displayed properly with the unmodified menu.vim. But there
is still some problem with the toolbar - every last character of the
tooltip becomes two question marks. I'm trying to debug the code and
will send you another patch as soon as I solve the problem. Hope you

The bad news for everyone is, after prop-setting the files, everyone

CVS updated?

2006-04-18 Thread Edward L. Fox
 Is the idea that this is a complete switch to SVN, or will the CVS
 tree still be updated once it's back online?

I'm not sure at this moment. Bram and other VIM developers uses not
only CVS it self, but also a lot of other scripts which relies
strongly on the output information of cvs. So switching to svn will
cost more effect. Any way, I'll try my best to switch the whole
project to svn, without disturbing the other developers too much.
