Vim developers, I am building vim without the gui feature on windows 10 using mingw. I am seeing many swapfiles left behind when I run the Vim test suite.
This is apparently caused by the "echoconsole" command that is in the file runtest.vim (the call was introduced in patch 8.2.2638). I believe this causes the problem because if I bracket that command with a test for "gui_running" the swapfiles are cleaned up as they should be and the tests succeed. In addition, after echoconsole displays its arguments on stdout, vim.exe appears to terminate because I then see the command prompt from cmd.exe. I don't see any indication of an error condition from Vim. Adding the if-test prevents the undesired behavior but I'm uncertain if that's the fix you would prefer so I haven't provided a patch and am limiting this note to reporting the problem. -mike -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
