Is it a bug that '\' after '-' in a collection is taken literally?
No, that's normal vi behaviour.
The context is Vim, not Vi:
:set nocp cpo&vim
Er, I thought vim was a reimplementation of vi.
It is. To a point. See
:help design-compatible
:help vi-differences
\ is not special in a character range (it stands for itself) and to
include ] you need to specify it as the first character in the range.
Even with set 'cp', `\]' is still special. See:
:h cpo-\
Mmm, sorry, I don't know what :se cp/nocp is.
:help 'cp'
Do you actually use Vi?
Hum, it sounds like you're putting your fists up. Bad sign.
Yes, since 1982 for all my work. I am also the maintainer for another
vi clone, "xvi".
Is that enough for you?
There are a couple of ways that question could be read. I think
Andy meant it as, "Do you use vi and not Vim?", and I think you
took it as, "Do you know how to use vi?"
Yep, I meant the former.
Vim added the backslash for escaping within a collection, but it does so
inconsistently. This has nothing to do with Vi.
