I notice other problems. For example, $ (in Normal mode) takes me to the fifth character. (With 'ruler' set, I see 17-5 in the status line.) Maybe there is a null byte in the fifth or sixth multi-byte character? I think $ and ruler are working correctly; the other 'characters' are combining characters and you cannot navigate to them directly. But if you do 'ga' on the second character, you'll see it's composed of two characters (05dc and 05b0). Thanks for verifying the problem isn't just my builds :)
vim patch: fixing resetting dictionary function
In the following I am creating a dictionary, associating a function
with the dictionary and then reassociating a new function
with the name of the original function.
Try this without the fix and you get:
ADD
n=9
Error detected while processing /home/emberson/vim/foo.vim:
line 14:
E475: Invalid argument: 1
ADD
n=9
Note that 1 is the index of the function in the dictionary.
Try it with the fix you get:
ADD
n=9
MULTIPLY
n=20
script:
let x = {}
function x.foo(a,b) dict
echo ADD
return a:a + a:b
endfunction
let n = x.foo(4,5)
echo n= . n
function! x.foo(a,b) dict
echo MULTIPLY
return a:a * a:b
endfunction
let n = x.foo(4,5)
echo n= . n

I have tried a couple of plugins and they don't seem to play well with my setup, presumably because I have temporarily switched my locale back from UTF-8 to en_US (due to problems with other applications that do are not yet utf8-ready). When in UTF-8 I was able to manually draw nice-looking tables to dress up text that I had previously formatted in rows and columns by using digraphs (Ctrl+K hh/vv etc..) and though there were some issues with printing I was all-in-all quite happy. The functionalities I had in mind would probably do something like this: 1. Assist text entry by letting you define tab stops, 2. Let you select a column of text and justify it, 3. Provide some means of inserting vertical lines at each tab stop, 4. Assist in creating horizontal lines by adding the ad hoc character where a vertical and a horizontal line intersect, 5. Reformat the table frame when box drawing characters are not available (replacing line intersections by '+' for instance). But then again I have little experience with vim and there is probably a vim way of doing this that I have not even imagined. So I am open to better strategies. You mention trying some plugins, but you did not say which ones, so I do not know if you have already tried these suggestions. For (1) see my other post on this thread. I think that Dr. C's Align plugin can do (2) and his DrawIt plugin can help with the rest. http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=294 http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=40 HTH --Benji Fisher

clearing the command line
I''ve been chasing this for a while, so I might as well ask, even though it seems like a stupid question. What's the right way to clear the command line between echo blocks in a script, without causing a full screen redraw? Everything I try eventually fails when the command line has been scrolled/grown upwards by output longer than cmdheight. I can't see the exact rule, since some things like: echo :CR normal : etc., come close, but no cigar.

Vim7 - intellisense problem
In my workplace, our coding standard states that we have to declare our
variables on the next line from the variable type. The intellisense in
vim7 doesn't work when it's like this.
For example ...
typedef struct
{
int
i;
}my_structure;
void main (void)
{
my_structure
var1;
my_structure var2;
var1. this doesn't work
var2. this does work
}
I guess we're not the only place that declares variables over multiple
lines.
Any way I can get around this? Would be really nice to get intellisense
working for our projects.
Cheers,
- Dan

For example, let cmdheight = 1 exe normal :echo\cr let cmdheight = s:tmp_cmdheight works when the statusbar has been pushed up a small number of lines. It seems to know how to recover without a full redraw. If it gets pushed up even more, then it fails to clear. The command also doesn't reflect the pushed position of the statusline, so there's no way to put a case for it in the script that way.

This works only if you set the @/ variable first by hitting return normally, which will highlight the pattern, then subsequence ^X or ^Y will move to the right pattern. Benji's simple example has the same problem if you start with c-p These come close, but the first time you use them, they do something slightly different than subsequent times. ^R go up *2* matches, and ^S just goes to what looks like the current match (i.e. it doesn't appear to move). It's all a problem of where the cursor actually is v.s. where the highlighting is for incsearch. cmap silent c-r crNN:redrawCR/c-p cmap silent c-s cr:redrawCR/c-p

Oops... I searched for scripts and didn't find anything dealing with
this kind of tabs, so got curious and went ahead and wrote a small
plugin for this. I hope there is more to be offered in this, than your
VarTab() function, especially that there is a GUI tabstop setter, and it
maps Tab to insert the right number of spaces.
I am attaching the plugin, and hope to get some feedback. You need
genutils.vim also, and read the plugin header.

Author: Hari Krishna (hari_vim at yahoo dot com)
Last Change: 18-May-2006 @ 10:55
Created: 17-May-2006
Requires:Vim-7.0, genutils.vim(1.19)
Version: 1.0.1

Usage:
- Use STEdit to bring up an editor for setting soft-tab stops (or to just
view them). You would see two lines, one with numbers to guide you, and
another to show the current tab stops. Use space bar or click with left
mouse button to toggle tabstops. You can of course use any editor command
to mark tabstops by replacing the space with a v (or even save/compose
your tabstop lines somewhere and replace the whole line here). To save
changes at the end, use :wq command (or just :w, to leave the window
open).
- Use STTgl to toggle using tabstops.
TODO:
- More testing.
- A command to reset tab stops.
- A command to add a tabstop at the current cursor position.
- Do more with tabstops (investigate).

Yes, you are looking for the Visual mode blockwise. ^V to initiate Visual mode blockwise. Use movement keys to get to where you want the block to span. Use y (yank) or x (cut) to put the block into the register (as a block) Use p (put) to insert the register (as a block) into the buffer For more info... :help CTRL-V :help ' :help ' There are probably a zillion variants and tricks with Visual mode blockwise.

Thanks. Will play with that too.
I was wondering if another approach such as using a markup language
that supports tables might not be preferable in the long run. What I
mean by this is that it might be a little more difficult to start off
with but might provide more control and facilities and end up being a
more portable solution.
html would be an obvious candidate but I suppose that there are others
in the linux world?
Is there any way I can split the screen and have the source version of a
document written in a markup language in one window and the compiled
version in the other? With a simple command or key combo that I could
issue in the source window that would cause a refresh of what is
displayed in the other window..? Or is vim just not suited for this
kind of approach?
