Hello Chip.
:version shows 7.0
It ought to show about a page of info. See at bottom for instance what
mine displays.
The error I get is:

The above is the complete listing for that version. You can also get it into a
file or (if compiled with clipboard support) into the clipboard, by using the
":redir" command (see ":help :redir"). Or even at the shell prompt:
vim --version >version.text
The listing you gave above is for Vim 6.4.6 which has +mouse and +version, and
where your vimrc should work with no error. If you do
vi --version >version7.txt
on your 7.0 version, I expect you'll see "Tiny version without GUI" and also
-mouse and -syntax, which explain the errors you got. On the same system,
using "vim" rather than "vi" should cure the error, if some "vim" program is
installed under that name. On RedHat-like system, there are up to four "vim"
packages, all of which can be installed side-by-side:
vim-common
required by each of the others
contains the runtime files
contains no editor executables
vim-minimal
a "minimum" version of Vim, installed as /bin/vi
includes neither syntax highlighting, mouse support, nor even
expression evaluation
it will be mounted even in single-user mode
vim-enhanced
an all-purpose Vim for use in console mode
installed as /usr/bin/vim
contains almost everything except the GUI code
vim-x11
installed as /usr/X11R6/bin/gvim
contains everything, including the GUI.
You may install all four packages, then invoke Vim as:
- vionly when working in single-user mode (for system repairs), if
/usr is not mounted or is corrupt.
- vim in Console mode
- gvim when working in an X11 window manager.
You should also bracket the vimrc lines which give an error in some versions,
such as:
if has("syntax")
syntax on
endif
and
if has("mouse")
set mouse=a
endif
Versions without expression evaluation will

Re: list

What sort of list? An actual Vim7 "List" datatype?
Perhaps something like:
let my_list = [matchstr(getline(2), 'regexp')]
(where "regexp" matches the part you want and "2" is the number
of the line in question)
Or, you have matches on multiple lines that you want to assemble
into a list:
:let my_list=[] | g/regexp/let my_list+=[matchstr(getline('.'), @/)]
which will accumulate the matches of just "regexp" in my_list[]
Or did you mean something else such as "I've got a todo-list in
my document and I want to move arbitrary pieces of other lines
into this todo-list"?
If the above doesn't help, perhaps you could clarify your intent.

Linux is my primary choice. How do you define which part of which lines should go into the list? One possibility would be to highlight the "interesting" text (hit v at one end then move the cursor to the other end), then add it at the bottom of the same file using y :$put which you can map to a key: :map y:$put There might be faster ways if you can define in unambiguous terms what you want to list.

You're executing "vi", not "vim", and apparently on a Linux system. Some Linux system vendors put a very limited version of vim in /bin/vi so that there is some editor that doesn't take much disk space or RAM available for troubleshooting systems that may not be able to mount /usr.

You really should get the most recent - 7.0.195 - there are many new useful features. The behavior of :!sort is normal. With no input or output specified, it waits for you to type something. Here's a brief dialog (using XP's cmd and the MS sort): c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /c sort xxx aaa ^Z aaa xxx Hit any key to close this window... I don't believe version 6.x installs diff.exe in $vim or looks for it there if it can't find it in your path (version 7 does). If you choose to continue to use 6.2, download a copy and place it in your path. -- Best regards, Bill

I have looked through :help, found *E97*, and am not sure how to proceed, but have tried to check the "shell" via: :!sort Typing this on the command line of a file causes a new MS-Dos command window (titled vimrun.exe) to open with the following message: C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c sort which is presumably not what is supposed to happen. (Note that I can get sorting on the current open file by means of :%!sort as shown on my vi reference mug. :-) ) If the problem is that "diff" cannot be executed (it isn't recognized at an MS Dos command prompt), can anyone assist me with getting it operational?

Re: Is it possible to write two replace command in one line?
> If I want to replace a to b, replace b to c, is it possible to do this
> two things in one line?
Well, you can use the pipe to concat commands, so you can do:
:%s/b/c/g|%s/a/b/g
However, if they overlap, it gets trickier. In that case (such
as swapping "a" and "b"), you can use something like
:%s/a\|b/\={'a':'b', 'b':'a'}[submatch(0)]/g
in Vim7.
To use that trick, both "a" and "b" should be "actual" values,
rather than regexps unless you can enumerate all values that the
regexp will match (because you need to look up the result in the
dictionary). This works for arbitrary remapping of however many
pieces you want. If you only want two pieces and are using
pre-vim7 where dictionaries were introduced, you can try
something like
:%s/a[xyz]\|b/\=submatch(0)=~'a[xyz]' ? 'b' : 'a'/g
This allows you to have at least one regexp for matching purposes
(that you repeat in the conditional for the trinary operator).
The above example looks for any regexp matching "ax, ay, or az"
or "b" and then replaces any of the "a[xyz]" matches with "b" and
replaces any "b" matches with "a".
All sorts of odd things can be done here. However, it does
demonstrate some of the power of \=
:help sub-replace-special
Hope this gives you something to work with and allows you to do
crazy-cool editing stuff in the future.

[vim 7.0] foOmni-cpp-complete stange behaviour
Hi all,
I want to migrate to Vim in everyday work. I instlalled
OmniCppComplete-0.4 from vim.org.
I installed this plugin, create dir with one cpp file. And run ctags
(as documented)
#ctags -R --c++-kinds=+p --fields=+iaS --extra=+q .
cpp file
---
#include
struct A
{
int x;
int y;
};
int main()
{
A a;
return 0;
}
After that I add to main function variable 'a' with type 'A'. And
typed a. and got error message (Pattern not found). After some
investigation of plugin I found that
in function omni#cpp#utils#GetCode(posStart, posEnd) there are
proceeded two lines (' {', 'A a;') but in omni/cpp/utils.cpp
file
let lines[0] = lines[0][ sStart : ]
let lines[-1] = lines[-1][ : sEnd ]
second code kills string ' A a;' !!! I commented this line and
omnifunc began working but not so gut as ft-c-omni. I'm newbie in Vim
and don't wont to change system files. Would you like to help me with
this plugin? Thanks a lot.

FWIW: firefox is running on a Linux 2.6.9 kernel (Redhat, I think) on an Intel based PC. The X Server (machine padev054) is a Sun Sparc under Solaris 2.8, and I've got synergy managing the keyboard and the mouse (server on the Sparc). Off hand, I don't see how any of that could make a difference (except maybe the machine on which firefox is running). Firefox is version 2.0.0.1 (en-US version), and It's All Text! is version 0.3.3. I have no idea where to start looking beyond that.

I wanted to avoid considering ASCII files as utf-8, therefore my "fileencodings" is empty. By default, "enc" is latin1, and I only change it, by hand (well, with a mapping) the 1 in 1 times I edit an utf-8 file that doesn't have a BOM mark. I do this by setting, manually, "enc". My error was to consider "enc" local to the buffer and not global. So it looks like I will have to choose an ASCII-7 mapleader (my first option) OR add new mappings as soon as I "set enc=utf-8" using a new value for leader. None of the solutions is a great deal, anyway. Thanks a lot for your fast and good answer, as always :)) Raúl Núñez de Arenas Coronado -- Linux Registered User 88736 | http://www.dervishd.net It's my PC and I'll cry if I want to... RAmen!

Hi all :)
I'm having a problem that I know how to solve, but I wonder if I'm
doing the right thing...
Some weeks ago I asked a couple of things about encodings on the
list, and based on the answers, I finally did a proper setup to edit
UTF-8 files from time to time in my latin1 terminal, while at the same
time treating new ASCII files as latin1 and not utf-8. This works OK.
But now my problem is the following. I've chosen "ç" as my
mapleader. This is due its position in my keyboard. BUT, its code in
latin1 is 0xe7 and, in utf8 it's 0xc3+0xa7.
This means (and this is my problem) that if I set "setlocal
enc=utf8", I'm no longer able to use it as my mapleader as-is. I still
generate "ç" when I press it, of course, and vim translates it onto
something my terminal understands as "ç". I assumed that it was doing
the same for mappings, but it is not.
Am I doing anything wrong? Should I set another thing so even with
"enc=utf8" my high-bit-set-mapleader still works? Should I set
"mapleader" to the utf8 value?
Thanks a lot in advance :)

Regarding your Subject: 'encoding' is a global option; it defines how the
characters are represented internally in memory for _all_ buffers.
When you store a mapping, it is stored in the 'encoding' current at the moment
the mapping is defined. If that 'encoding' is Latin1, the letter ç (small
c-cedilla) is stored as the single byte 0xE7.
After ":set encoding=utf-8", the byte 0xE7 is invalid unless it is immediately
followed by two bytes in the range 0x80-0xBF. The small c-cedilla is still the
codepoint U+00E7 but that codepoint is now represented in memory as the two
bytes 0xC3 0xA7.
Therefore, you should set 'encoding' early in your vimrc, as follows:
set nocompatible
if has("unix")
language messages C
else
language messages en
endif
runtime vimrc_example.vim
if has("multi_byte")
if &enc !~? '^u'
if &tenc == ""
let &tenc = &enc
endif
set enc=utf-8
endif
set fencs=ucs-bom,utf-8,latin1
setglobal bomb fenc=latin1
else
echomsg "Multi-byte support not compiled-in"
endif
...
let mapleader = "\"
...
map abc call myFunctionABC()
...
Best regards,
Tony.

Re: vim on calcs, PDAs, palms
I'd like to know if any ports of vim to them are supported "out of the box" The Sharp Zaurus (no new products to be expected) and the Nokia N800 are linux-based devices and to my knowledge run vim if this is what you wanted to know.
