Maybe it's a bug that when you tell Vim to delete lines that don't 
exist
it doesn't beep and do nothing.  But it's always been that way and 
there
is no reason why it's more of a problem now then 10 years ago.  So 
let's

 Any idea why (re: the short read on tar)?

This is not a problem.  Tar doesn't complain if you decompress the .bz2 file at
first and then tar -xf the decompressed file (.tar).  Tar doesn't know the
size of the uncompressed file (yet) when it's still compressed because Tar is

  I can't reproduce this with 1-229. Patch 223 has been released, have a
  try?
  
 
 There were two successive versions of Bram's patch in this thread (the second 
 version replacing only part of the first), and both have been released since 
 then. If Adri was using the first version, and it was corrected by the second 
 one, that would explain it.

Bram's Patch for Unix filename expansion is in fact patches 7.1.223 + 7.1.226.

My shell is Bash on Fedora 7.  (se sh=/bin/sh)
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 801504 2007-11-26 16:03 /bin/bash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root  4 2008-01-14 08:58 /bin/sh - bash

Anyway, I tried reversing Bram's Patch for Unix filename expansion, then
apply #223, yet it fails to see the filenames containing a space character.

This time I tried this directory structure:

b'c/file001
b'c/file 01
b'c/file  1

Three files, one with one space in its name, one with two spaces in its name
(between 'e' and '1').  Typing:
:n b\'c/*TABTAB   or   :n b\'c/TABTAB   (without the asterisk)
only shows one filename: file001

My next try was to put only one file in a directory called c'd, like so:

$ mkdir c\'d
$ touch c\'d/one\ space
$ src/vim
:n c\'d/TABTAB
(This just beeps at me.  No filename matching.)

One other try then, without the apostrophe to ensure that we don't need a
backslash at first (for locating the directory).
$ mkdir de
$ touch de/sp\ a\ ce
$ src/vim
:n de/*TABCR
de/sp a ce 0L, 0C
(Result: OK!)

OK, then back to directory c'd which contains the filename one space.
$ src/vim
:n c\'d/*
c'd/one 0L, 0C
:arg
[c'd/one] space

So this is where something goes wrong, if anyone can follow me.

 This is happening because you have the 'digraph' option enabled.  When

spend vs. spent

2008-01-20 Fir de Conversatie Adri Verhoef

I saw the word spend being used and wondered why it wasn't being spelled as
spent.

I decided to grep both words in all '.c' files I could find.  Here is a sample 
of the
result:
$ find|grep \\.c$|xargs grep [^u]spend
./src/eval.c:proftime_T uf_tm_total;/* time spend in function + 
children */
./src/eval.c:proftime_T uf_tm_self; /* time spend in function 
itself */
./src/eval.c:proftime_T *uf_tml_total;  /* time spend in a line + 
children */
./src/eval.c:proftime_T *uf_tml_self;   /* time spend in a line itself 
*/
./src/ex_cmds2.c:proftime_T sn_pr_total;/* time spend in script + 
children */
./src/ex_cmds2.c:proftime_T sn_pr_self; /* time spend in script itself 
*/
./src/ex_cmds2.c:proftime_T sn_prl_total;   /* time spend in a line + 
children */
./src/ex_cmds2.c:proftime_T sn_prl_self;/* time spend in a line itself 
*/
./src/ex_cmds2.c:   /* Grow the array before starting the timer, so that

$ find|grep \\.c$|xargs grep spent
./src/eval.c:proftime_T uf_tm_children; /* time spent in children this 
call */
./src/eval.c:proftime_T uf_tml_children; /* time spent in children for 
this line */
./src/eval.c:proftime_T prof_child; /* time spent in a child */
./src/eval.c: * Take care of time spent in a child.
./src/ex_cmds2.c:proftime_T sn_prl_children; /* time spent in children for 
this line */
./src/ex_cmds2.c: * Count time spent in children after invoking another script 
or function.
./src/syntax.c: * To reduce the time spent in keepend(), remember at which

UTF-8 bomb showing up after :%!sort

2008-05-17 Fir de Conversatie Adri Verhoef

I have this textfile that contains three lines:

3
2
1

Now do:
:se fileencoding=utf8 bomb
:%!sort

Result:
1
2
feff3

Now do:
:w newfile
newfile [New] 3L, 12C written
:w !od -c 
000 357 273 277   1  \n   2  \n 357 273 277   3  \n
014

I think there is a problem here, namely that the BOM (Byte Order Mark, see
:help 'bomb') is transferred to the shell command, when it shouldn't.  In
my opinion Vim should be able to temporarily remove the BOM, then execute
the shell command, and finally place the BOM back at its original place,
at the beginning of the file.

Background: a colleague of mine received a file from abroad (with afterwards
what appeared to be a BOM) and while editing the file, he sorted the file
(:%!sort) and noticed some strange characters at the end of the file.  Since
his terminal can't handle UTF-8, he saw these three characters in Latin-1:
ï » ¿ (in octal: \357 \273 \277).  Trying to remove them, he typed xxx, then
wrote the file and quit Vim.  Then he started Vim again, did some more editing
and sorted the file again and saw - again - those three strange characters,
erased them again and sorted again and there they were *again*!  It puzzled me
for a while, too, until I adviced him to try setting 'fileencoding' to latin1.
This helped, but only later I figured out what had happened.

What do you think?

I noticed this: "Lets me work".  Bram worked for Google for 15 years, until 
September 2021.
Shouldn't this "Lets me" be past tense then, like "Let Bram"?  Alternatively: 
"Letting Bram".

Above it says: "The current maintainers are listed".

As we can see, that's plural.  Let's watch out for the word "maintainer" then.

Let's also have another look at the lines above.

"It is allowed to distribute a modified (or extended) version of Vim",
that's singular ("version of Vim").  Then the next lines: "maintainer will do
with your changes and under what license they will be distributed is 
negotiable".
I think this can be split into two parts: the part where the changes are 
mentioned
and the part where the license of the version is discussed.  'The changes'
might be plural, but 'the version' is singular.  So shouldn't this be "the
maintainers will do with your changes and under what license that version"
(trying to avoid the word 'it' or 'they' after "under what license") then?

Possibly, the following lines:

"impossible to contact the maintainer, the obligation to send him
your changes ceases.  Once the maintainer has confirmed that he has"

should then be changed into:

"impossible to contact the maintainers, the obligation to send them
your changes ceases.  Once the maintainers have confirmed that they have"

There are more locations where "maintainer" is mentioned.  Should I list them?

The same text appears in file uganda.txt:

So the same remarks apply. :-)

This wasn't changed yet:

That should possibly be changed into:
"get no response send a message to the vim-dev mailing list ."

The word "me" is also 'suspect':

Maybe change "me" into "us"?

Shouldn't this just be "e-mail" instead of "E-mail"?

The same applies here:
