I have made some vimscripts for Python programming. I made them for
Vim 7.0, but now I need to get them to work on Vim 6.3 as I have to
work on a system where I cannot update Vim.
My main problem is that I cannot figure out how I can call a function
like one can in Vim 7
function! PM_Insert_Code(function_name) "{{{1
" Calls the given function and inserts the text
let Func = function(a:function_name)
execute "normal! a". Func()
endfunction
function! foo()
Glad I still have a machine with 6.2 on it to test this.
(ducks as Tony hurls a "hey, you should upgrade!" email at me :)
You likely want something like
function! PM_Insert_Code(function_name)
echo 'About to call '.(a:function_name)
call {a:function_name}()
echo 'Returning from '.(a:function_name)
endfunction
function! MyFunc()
echo 'Calling MyFunc()'
endfunction
call PM_Insert_Code('MyFunc')
which you can read about at
:help curly-braces-names
:h curly-braces-function-names
It's ripe for abuse, but there are times like this where it's
*exactly* what you need.
