The docs for getline() say that when it's called without an 'end', it
returns the text of the given line as a String (and that given an 'end', it
returns a List).
This is text.
This is also text.
" Now, from the command line...
:echo getline(1)
This is text.
" That should be a String. So...
:echo getline(1).split(' ')
E730: using List as a String
E15: Invalid expression: getline(1).split(' ')
" Huh. So even asked for just one line, it's returning a List?
:echo join(getline(1))
E714: List required
0
Am I misunderstanding something?
