Hi!
I have the follwing code in my .vimrc to display the highlighting at the
cursor position:
function Hi_get_info()
let syn_name = synIDattr(synID(line("."), col("."), 1), "name")
if len(syn_name) == 0
return ""
endif
let info = syn_name
let orig_ignorecase = &ignorecase
let &ignorecase = 0
while 1
redir => hi_output
silent execute "hi " . syn_name
redir END
let matches = matchlist(hi_output, '\w\+\s\+xxx\( links
to\)\?\(.*\)')
if (matches[1] ==# " links to")
let link_name = matches[2]
let info .= " >" . link_name
let syn_name = link_name
else
let info .= matches[2]
break
endif
endwhile
let &ignorecase = orig_ignorecase
return info
endfunction
map <silent> <F4> :echo Hi_get_info()<CR>
The problem is that when I press F4 the output is sometimes printed
without clearing the previous output. For example sometimes I get:
vvimLet > vimCommand > Statement term=bold ctermfg=6 guifg=darkorange
Notice the extra v at the beginning. If I remove <silent> from the map
command then the output is OK. But I don't like it that then the command
is shown.
Do I have to clear the previous output somehow?
