Whether or nor vim_dev.googlegroups.com can be resolved may vary from OS to OS. When I was on Windows, Firefox had no problem resolving -electra-.deviantart.com which is invalid in a similar way, but with dashes. On Linux I cannot get it to find the same host by querying the same DNS server. There is a workaround if you know the dotted-quad or hex-IPv6 IP address (an ugly workaround but better than none at all); it consists of adding a line for it in your hosts file (on Linux, /etc/hosts ; on Windows the file exists too but I'm less sure of where). The line consists of the appropriate numeric address followed by one or more tabs and then the symbolic host name. If the numeric address of that host ever changes you will have to change the line in the hosts file. In effect, what this workaround is doing is to resolve that particular host locally rather than by querying an external DNS server (your hosts file is indeed a "local DNS server", external servers are only queried when that "local server" gives no answer). In this case the following line ought to do the job: 209.85.133.137 vim_dev.googlegroups.com You can add comments in your hosts file (and I recommend that you do): any line starting with a # character is a comment. It is of course permitted to have several symbolic names for a single numeric address.

I think it's a good idea to have a central place to find Vim patches. www.vim.org would be the right place for them. I don't want to add the actual source code there (unless it's a relatively small patch file). It's better for each modification to have their own site, with CVS/Subversion, docs, etc. The central place would be listing the available patches, description and a link to the site where it can be downloaded. Perhaps it's sufficient to add them to the scripts, with a special type. And instead of a download you would have a link to the external site. -- hundred-and-one symptoms of being an internet addict: 10.

Yes, I've already understand you in your last mail. optional feature -> #ifdef FEAT_RELATIVENUMBER -> +-relativenumber But I think that wouldn't beautify the source code and would be overhead for just a single option.

I'll admit that I only use it occasionally, but I do use it. Most of my use is for jumping several lines up/down with j or k, though I may eventually find other uses for it. I have kind of trained myself to use other methods for lack of a quick and easy way to see relative line numbers without disrupting my "flow" by manually counting or doing arithmetic on the absolute numbers. Just a couple of gripes: 1. The default italic text for the signs causes the number to lean outside of the signs column in Windows gvim. I have needed to override your colors to remove the italics. 2. There isn't a good way that I can find to detect that the numbers are being displayed. I would like to have the relative numbers replace the absolute line numbers from :set nu when it is active, which I could do myself if there were a reliable way to detect whether this plugin is active. I have not tried the patch, because it is too much trouble for me to compile my own Vim on Windows. Yes, I'm on vim-dev, but a lot of vimscript stuff and discussion of features/bugs happens that does not require me to compile my own Vim or try out 3rd-party patches. All this being said, I would certainly _prefer_ if this feature were a built-in option rather than a vimscript plugin.

It's just that I don't feel like I'm going to use it (or Dr.Chip's relative-numbering plugin); and I daresay that the risk of a patch which affects so many different sources might get bit-rotten in the future (in contrast with Bill McCarthy's float functions patch, which affects only one source module) is also deterring me somewhat. OTOH, I would have nothing against both above-mentioned patches being incorporated into the mainline sources, Bill's patch as part of the +float feature, and your relative-numbers patch either as standard or as another optional feature (I suppose the latter would imply bracketing all its changes in #ifdef directives but it might be the better choice).

The folding issue that was addressed: text1 fold text2 fold and with the cursor somewhere in the text2 block, the relative numbering was missing for text1. Relative numbering shows now, so long as its within +-99 lines. There are a number of things that I'd mention as drawbacks to my plugin: * it uses signs, and only about 200 signs are available (hence that +-99 constraint) (and, of course, that means that they're not available for something else) * in addition to scrolling w/o cursor movement (ctrl-y, also), there's redraw which doesn't re-do the signs. Should be a RedrawEvent or something. * signs are attached to buffers. Hence multiple windows on the same buffer only shows one set of relative numbers; try :RN with multiple windows on a buffer showing different parts of the buffer and you'll see what I mean. I'll update the link to your patch (when I get a chance -- I'm still updating vim on this machine+o/s). I hope you don't consider my plugin a competitor, I thought of it as more of a step towards your patch (whet folks' appetites, as it were) -- and maybe even as justification for your patch given enough interest. Anyway, that's why I included the link to your patch. Regards, and thanks for the patch! Chip Campbell --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.

Well, you are on the vim developers list. I don't force you to do it, but I think if you like the feature, you should probably try it once for comparison with the plugin. > so, no, i haven't tried your patch, sorry, call me lazy That's the problem with an external patch. It will never get the same attention as if it was included in mainline. And you can't simply install a new Vim version without worrying about the patch in contrast to a plugin. The point is that if you find it useful, you would probably like to have it in mainline without the problems of the plugin.

The link refers to the earlier version as Tony mentioned. This one is newer: http://groups.google.com/group/vim_dev/attach/10fa0944a8b643b4/vim-7.2-relativenumber-02.patch?part=2 It seems as if the interest in this feature is not as small as supposed by Bram. Well, it's an exotic feature, and maybe its strangeness is it's destiny. However, there are several drawbacks to your plugin, where the numbers aren't shown correctly. These are just the major issues: - folding isn't handled (I wonder what the bugfix log "Aug 18, 2008 * Fixed some bugs associated with folding" is all about) - scrolling without cursor movement (zz Ctrl-E ...) And last but not least the performance problem. In view of that, I wonder if the enthusiastic users of this plugin have ever tested my patch, which is a lot more usable at this time.

Thanks Chip. I noticed that the relative line numbering does not appear when resizing my terminal, until I move the cursor. Attached patch fixes it (not sure if it's the best way to fix it): $ diff -d -c RltvNmbr.vim.orig RltvNmbr.vim *** RltvNmbr.vim.orig 2008-08-19 02:50:00.0 +0200 --- RltvNmbr.vim2008-08-19 02:48:15.0 +0200 *** *** 135,140 --- 135,141 augroup RltvNmbrAutoCmd au! au CursorMoved * call RltvNmbr(2) + au VimResized * call RltvNmbr(1) au ColorScheme * call ColorschemeLoaded() augroup END --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.

ANNC: Relative Numbering plugin
Hello! I've issued a new plugin on my website: http://mysite.verizon.net/astronaut/vim/index.html#RLTVNMBR . It uses the signs capability of "huge" vim to give relative numbering. After some comment period I expect to release it on vim.sf.net. I'd like to mention the relative numbering patch in my document -- would someone please tell me where that patch is again? And, as you may notice, I think I've now got a way to respond again to messages on the mailing list. Thank you, Chip Campbell --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. For more information, visit http://www.vim.org/maillist.php -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---
