Issue 276 in vim: opening file with .gz extension
Status: New Owner: Labels: Type-Defect Priority-Medium New issue 276 by santosh@gmail.com: opening file with .gz extension https://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=276 The default behaviour of vim when opening a file with .gz extension, is to decompress and then re-compress it again when saving it. In a situation when the file has a .gz extension, BUT IT IS NOT GZIPPED, vim gives error in the first part of decompression. But the 2nd part of re-compression goes ahead as it is, which has an unwanted side-effect that the original file gets compressed. Although not a bug, it would be better if the behaviour was more consistent and vim didn't try to re-compress the file if it was not able to decompress it originally. What steps will reproduce the problem? 1. Create a file txt-file (no compression) with .gz extension $ echo -e one\ntwo vimtmp.gz 2. open the file with vim, it spits the following error msg: -- vimtmp.gz 2L, 8C Error detected while processing function gzip#read: line 44: Error: Could not read uncompressed file Press ENTER or type command to continue -- Press ENTER and continue to open the file. 3. Save the file using :wq Here, vim doesn't give any warning or error and compresses the file using gzip. What is the expected output? What do you see instead? No compression of the original file, if vim encountered an error in decompression. What version of the product are you using? On what operating system? version 7.2.108 on Mac OS X (10.6.8) version 7.3.49 on Ubuntu 12-04.4 LTS Please provide any additional information below. It seems to be more generic issue related to how vim gzip plugin handles .gz file, and can be potentially affecting all versions (on all OSes) -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.

Re: [patch] Use a [count] for do/dp as the [bufspec] for :diffget/:diffput

I've been having to do that more lately, so the attached patch turns a supplied [count] for do/dp into the [bufspec] for :diffget/:diffput. Obviously, it's not as expressive as being able to use the full bufspec, but, at least for me, I always know the buffer number, so providing the count is much quicker. Hi James Your patch looks useful. But you wrote 3-way diff and in my opinion, Vim diff does not do 3-way diff. Vim can diff 3 files against each other, but that does not qualify as a 3-way diff. Sure, but that's beside the point of my email. I agree that Vim doesn't present a3-way diff as nicely as other tools, but it's good enough for what I've been needing to do lately (along with some scripting of diff3).

Re: allow to vimgrep current buffer

Well, then perhaps a separate :bvimgrep[add] set of commands would be
better than overloading the existing commands:
:bvimgrep[!] /{pattern}/[g][j] [bufname]
:N,Mbvimgrep[!] /{pattern}/[g][j]
:bvimgrep[!] /{pattern}/[g][j] N1 N2 ...
Sounds useful. Bram, would you consider including this feature, if I
write a patch for that?
I think it can be done with a bit of Vim script, but it might be
generally useful, thus nice to work without installing a plugin.
It could also be a solution for something that doesn't work yet: Search
within a Visual block. Since this is going to be a new command, we can
make :',' respect the Visual mode, including block. So you could
select a block and type :bvimgrep /pattern/, then move to matches with
:cn.
I think we can actually call it :bgrep. It's very unlikely 'grepprg'
is useful to search in buffers and it's shorter to type.

Re: Documentation patch: :global [cmd] can have a range
Michael Henry wrote: Here is a small documentation patch that indicates the [cmd] associated with the :global command may contain a range. Tim Chase pointed out a couple of pre-existing examples in the documentation, so I've linked to them from :global, which required adding one extra tag in usr_25.txt. Thanks for the suggestion.
