Actually, I have a concern regarding these timers.
Please confirm the method by which I can unconditionally disable all
timers, and all
attempts to thereafter create a timer, using a single command. For
example, a
command like "timers off" in my .vimrc could override any attempt by any
plug-in
to enable a timer and force ViM into a guaranteed timer-free state.
It doesn't matter how well the feature itself is written, or how many
additional
commands have been created to "monitor" the timers, nothing can protect
me, a
person who uses ViM for primarily editing files, from:
1) A shoddy programmer who doesn't use the timers in the most
"VIM-friendly" way.
2) A bug in a plug-in that causes that plug-in, other plug-ins, or even
VIM itself, to
behave unpredictably and obstruct the work I am doing.
Incidentally, unacceptable solutions to this concern include, but are
not limited to:
a) VIM -u NONE
b) "Why don't you just build your own version with FEAT_TIMERS not defined?"
etc, etc.
Thanks in advance.
