This is regardless of whether `:set` or `:setlocal` was > used to set `nospell`! > Netrw's strategy has been to 1) enew/get a netrw buffer, 2) save user options, 3) impose netrw-friendly options, 4) construct the netrw buffer, and 5) to restore user options. The netrw buffer itself is left as non-modifiable, read-only. Apparently your autocmd to set nospell takes place before step 5 (probably just after netrw sets its filetype). So the options you had at the onset of using netrw are restored. I can certainly see where having spell checking of a listing is generally unwanted. However, if I rigged netrw so as to not restore your original spell option (whether via option, doau FileType netrw, etc), then any files that you subsequently selected would also not have spellchecking enabled. I'm leaning towards putting in the doau FileType netrw line, but that in turn would mean that files that you subsequently selected for editing via netrw would not have spellchecking enabled; for iexample, f you did something like :vsplit :e someotherfile which allows one to edit a file not through netrw's auspices. Its to support the previous type of sequence that I have netrw restore user options for itself. Regards, Chip Campbell --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.

How often do you really want spell checking on a directory listing? We're talking about existing files; if you want spell checking on a file name, you want it when you are typing :w filename, not when you are browsing to open a file.

(netrw v135q now available) > > Regards, > Chip Campbell Thanks! However, I think it needs some fine-tuning. The latest (I tried v135r and v135) removes most, but not all, spell highlighting. I have attached the result of :w vim.netrw after :e .vim (to get the text of the netrw window). Make sure you don't have au FileType netrw ...; then, :e vim.netrw and :set ft=netrw (this should give the same syntax highlighting that netrw gives for :e .vim on my .vim directory). For me, "SearchInRuntime", "cyclecolor", "filetype", "lh", and "xml" at the beginning of the lines they are on all have SpellBad highlighting. I also note that the first character of each of those lines has synID of 0 (none?) while the second character has syntax group-name netrwPlain. ...Marvin --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.

Re: [bug] netrw-browse/autocmd/nospell
Hello *, thanks for all the feedback, this was actually rather helpful. Thanks especially to Charles for the explanation of why this happens. Since I don't have admin rights on the machine(s) in question and thus can't uninstall any old netrw versions, I've settled on the `...@nospell` option -- or rather, lazy as I am, on putting one `...@spell` in a place where it doesn't matter so as to disable spelling for the rest of the file.
