I very much hope that one thing will be changed. Currently '#' only starts a comment when it's followed by a space, if I understand correctly. Please make it instead behave like almost every other language that uses '#' as a comment character, and *don't* require that it be followed by a space.
The choice of '"' as the comment character in vimscript of course proved a bit awkward, but forcing it to be '#<space>' rather than '#' is even worse IMO. I note that if you look in the dictionary of comment characters found inside the popular NerdCommenter plugin, there are exactly ZERO entries for which '#<space>' is mandatory. There are five entries that indicate a style preference for '#<space>' but allow '#'. And there are 134 entries for which '#', with no following space, is a comment character. (For 125 of these 134, that's the primary or sole comment character). If one of the goals of vim9script is to be more like what a user expects, then '#' and not '#<space>' should be the comment-starter. -Manny -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
