Hi, My eyes hurts everytime I had to hunt for a specific feature in the listing shown by :version.
Attached patch formats the feature list shown by :version into a more readable, columnar style. It's the same style used for listing a book's index - it's easier to scan as the items are sorted top to bottom in each column. Before patch: --8<-- Huge version with GTK2 GUI. Features included (+) or not (-): +arabic +autocmd +balloon_eval +browse ++builtin_terms +byte_offset +cindent +clientserver +clipboard +cmdline_compl +cmdline_hist +cmdline_info +comments +conceal +cryptv +cscope +cursorbind +cursorshape +dialog_con_gui +diff +digraphs +dnd -ebcdic +emacs_tags +eval +ex_extra +extra_search +farsi +file_in_path +find_in_path +float +folding -footer +fork() +gettext -hangul_input +iconv +insert_expand +jumplist +keymap +langmap +libcall +linebreak +lispindent +listcmds +localmap -lua +menu +mksession +modify_fname +mouse +mouseshape +mouse_dec -mouse_gpm -mouse_jsbterm +mouse_netterm +mouse_sgr -mouse_sysmouse +mouse_urxvt +mouse_xterm +multi_byte +multi_lang -mzscheme +netbeans_intg +path_extra -perl +persistent_undo +postscript +printer +profile +python -python3 +quickfix +reltime +rightleft -ruby +scrollbind +signs +smartindent -sniff +startuptime +statusline -sun_workshop +syntax +tag_binary +tag_old_static -tag_any_white -tcl +terminfo +termresponse +textobjects +title +toolbar +user_commands +vertsplit +virtualedit +visual +visualextra +viminfo +vreplace +wildignore +wildmenu +windows +writebackup +X11 -xfontset +xim +xsmp_interact +xterm_clipboard -xterm_save system vimrc file: "$VIM/vimrc" -->8-- After: --8<-- Huge version with GTK2 GUI.

Try it! See how long it takes you to locate, say the 'libcall' feature in the two examples above. Careful, the new listing is so fine it might even make you want to go and do a :help +feature for each of the items :) Nazri -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
