Hi,

The help of type() says:

                To avoid the magic numbers it should be used this way: >
                        :if type(myvar) == type(0)
                        :if type(myvar) == type("")
                        :if type(myvar) == type(function("tr"))
                        :if type(myvar) == type([])
                        :if type(myvar) == type({})
                        :if type(myvar) == type(0.0)
                        :if type(myvar) == type(v:false)
                        :if type(myvar) == type(v:none)

But I don't think this is easy to understand. More badly, we don't have a way
to get the constants for Job and Channel; we need to use the magic numbers for
them. Attached patch adds constants for them:
  v:t_number, v:t_string, ..., v:t_job and v:t_channel

What do you think?

Regards,
Ken Takata
