Thank you. That problem appears to be fixed. Now, however, I see
another problem (with 8.1.685) with SpellCaps highlighting: words
at the start of what Vim thinks are sentences are highlighted
inconsistently.
For example, start vim as:
vim -N -u NONE -i NONE -c 'set spell'
Insert the following into the buffer:
the
quick
brown
fox
jumped
over
"the" is highlighted as SpellCaps, but "fox" is not. Typing Ctrl-L
causes "fox" to be highlighted now as SpellCaps as well. Editing
"fox" to change it to "fix" removes the highlighting.
I am typing this on another system that is running vim 8.1.497. The
behavior of SpellCaps highlighting is different here when typing the
same two paragraphs. Here, "the" is highlighted until the q in
"quick" is typed, and "fox" is highlighted until the j in "jumped"
is typed. Again though, both "the" and "fox" are re-highlighted as
SpellCaps after Ctrl-L is typed.
Regards,
Gary
