Hello Vim developers, I've noticed a regression:
:s/.*/\="foo\nbar"/
This correctly replaces the current line with two lines containing "foo"
and "bar", respectively. Now add the confirm flag, and accept the
replacement:
:s/.*/\="foo\nbar"/c
This replaces the current line with a single line containing "foo^@bar"
(where ^@ is <Nul>). This is inconsistent and unexpected. Replacing with
\r instead works (with and without the flag), and can be used as a
workaround.
Using the attached scriptlet, I've bisected this to the following patch:
,----[ bad change ]----
| 7.3.225 "\n" in a substitute() inside ":s" not handled correctly
`----
The problem therefore can be seen in this and all following Vim
versions, verified up to the latest 7.4.258. (I've used a HUGE build on
both Windows/x64 and Linux/x64.)
