Summary: Escaping in Tex_pack_updateall
Initial Comment:
The bug occurs when opening a TeX file which is not the .latexmain file in a
directory whose path contains an asterisk or any other glob character which
happens to expand to multiple paths.
The code in question is from packages.vim:
if expand('%:p') != fname
call Tex_Debug(':Tex_pack_updateall: sview
'.Tex_EscapeSpaces(fname), 'pack')
exe 'sview '.Tex_EscapeSpaces(fname)
else
call Tex_Debug(':Tex_pack_updateall: split', 'pack')
split
endif
call Tex_ScanForPackages()
q
The call to sview fails because Tex_EscapeSpaces doesn't escape the asterisk in
the path. The error in verbose mode is:
Error detected while processing function Tex_pack_updateall:
line 29:
E77: Too many file names
Because splitting the buffer fails, the following call to q closes the original
buffer and therefore the instance of vim which was just opened. The user only
sees vim close immediately with no error message.
A solution to this problem is to use fnameescape instead of Tex_EscapeSpaces
because it properly escapes all characters not only spaces.
I think this problem could also occur at other places where Tex_EscapeSpaces is
used in conjunction with asterisks in the path name. Maybe Tex_EscapeSpaces
should use fnameescape internally. The problem might be that * expansion might
be desired in certain places. I don't know if that is the case anywhere in
latexsuite.
I attached a patch that fixes the problem for me.
