(Undocumented) behavior of '' as hist-name for hist* functions

Hi Bram & list, Looking at test_history.vim, Test_History calls the History_Tests function for a list of various strings. for h in ['cmd', ':', '', 'search', '/', '?', 'expr', '=', 'input', '@', 'debug', '>'] call History_Tests(h) endfor Most of these are the valid history type names

If you mean that there is more space below capital-letter glyphs than above them, this is normal: indeed, descenders (as with g, j, p, q) go below the capitals' baseline, while ascenders (as in b, d, f, h, k, l, t) hardly go above the capitals' top line. Instead of comparing the blank space above

Addendum: Looking into the code, I found that a possible location for this to happen might be list_find_nr() in list.c. I have to add that, revising my use of setpos(), I called the function like this: setpos("'<", [0, 532, 83]), i.e. I left out the "off" list member. As this did not result in

Addendum 2: The problem also shows up when the setpos() is fed with the correct List (i.e. four elements). @Jürgen It seems that this is the trigger, you're right. However, as I take it from the docs, the mode - when entering operator-pending mode - should be charwise Visual mode. That said,
