Hi, When converting test29 into a new style test, I came across several instances where multiple lines of text need to be stored in a variable. I used the following method to do it:
new insert some text some text some text . let text = getline(1, '$') You can also use a list literal to store the lines. But it is not readable. It will be useful to support a HERE document syntax for assigning multiple lines of text to a variable. Something along the lines of (similar to the shell here document syntax): let text <<HERE some text some text HERE Regards, Yegappan -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
