I'm trying to cleanup an interesting tip that automatically manipulates the quickfix list with a QuickfixCmdPost event. The tip sorts the list by file name and line number and omits duplicates: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Automatically_sort_Quickfix_list
A custom sort function compares two items in the quickfix list and the following code is used to determine whether the two quickfix items have the same buffer name: if bufname(a:i1.bufnr) == bufname(a:i2.bufnr) The argument a:i1 is a quickfix item; it is a dictionary and bufnr is a field that specifies the number of the buffer associated with the quickfix item. See ':help getqflist()'. Is the following line equivalent to the code above? if a:i1.bufnr == a:i2.bufnr I do not see how two different buffers could have the same bufname(), so just checking the buffer number seems sufficient. I concede that this is probably not worth worrying about, it's just my curiosity and wondering what I'm missing. John -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
