"We" ought to document this and the sequences of other events.
Where would be a good place to put that? In a new section, e.g.
autocmd-sequences, in autocmd.txt? Maybe something like this?
12. Sequences of autocommand events *autocmd-sequences*
Most Vim commands initiate a sequence of events, some of which cause
autocommand events (|autocmd-events|) to be generated as they occur.
Which autocommand events are generated in response to Vim events and
the sequence in which they occur can be confusing, yet understanding
them can be critical to getting expected results from using them.
Here are some Vim events and the resulting sequence of autocommand
events.
- :tabnew myfile
1. WinEnter
% is name of buffer in which :tabnew was executed.
2. TabNew
3. TabEnter
4. BufEnter
% is name of new buffer, "myfile".
5. BufWinEnter
Regards,
Gary
