Re: cannot create diffs

2009-01-12 Thread Samuel Ferencik

Hi John,

thanks for the reply. I have tried your suggestion, and I get the same
output from both accounts:

:function MyDiff2
   function MyDiff2()
1  call input(MyDiff2 called)
   endfunction

I should have said I was using vim on VMS, which is probably not what
most of you are using. Unfortunately, I have no other multi-user
environment where I could try the same thing with another vim build
(win, unix). I think I will now turn to the vim-vms discussion list.

Is there no other way to look under the hood? What does vim do between
  :windo:difft
and calling
  'diffexpr'
for the first window?

Thanks,
Sam

 You seem to have proved that what you're seeing is impossible, so I
 would do one more sanity check. For both accounts:

   :set diffexpr?
   :function MyDiff2

 Does B have exactly what you posted:
   function! MyDiff2()

enable options based on variables

2009-01-12 Thread Nicolas Aggelidis

hi, i use vim both at work and at home so i share configuration files
between them. is there any way to enable some options based on the
value of global variable?

i.e.

athome=1


if (athome=1)
   set cursorline
else
   set nocursorline

or

if (athome=1)
  let g:LookupFile_DefaultCmd = ':LUTags'
else
  let g:LookupFile_DefaultCmd = ':LUWalk'

the posted examples are pointless, but i hope you get the idea!

Have you tried setting 'diffexpr' to the empty string (for instance by 
running vim -N -u NONE)? And if you have, did it work?

Why not? You could even check some environment variable if you know one 
which is set to a different value (or if you set one differently) on 
both systems:

if $FOOBAR == ''
set cursorline
endif

You could also set some setting differently on Windows or unix:

if has('unix')
language messages C
else
language messages en
endif

and so on.

Re: cannot create diffs

2009-01-12 Thread Samuel Ferencik

Hello,

I have now found the problem.

I looked in the source code, and found that ex_diffupdate() writes
temporary files into $TMP/... Well, my $TMP (in both A and B accounts)
points to a directory in the A account, and this directory was only
writable by A, so vim running under B could not create the temp files.
(I don't even remember why I had $TMP defined in the first place; if
it is unset, diffing works.)

Thank you both for your suggestions.

Starting command from vim

2009-01-12 Thread McA

Hi all,

after searching for a while I couldn't find an exact solution for my
problem.
Therefore I ask here and hope not to bother.

I have a textfile with several shell statements. I want to be able to
visually mark one of them and to execute the marked one in an external
shell. The output of this command should go to a new vim window (e.g.
split one).

Is this possible? When yes, how?

Re: Limit line width

 When I use vim to code C/C++ or Python, I like to has each
 line never longer than 79 columns.  Is there a easy way that
 vim can help?


Is there some aspect that isn't solved by using

   :set tw=79

that you need additional functionality?  There are some things 
that can override this setting (such as intentionally joining 
lines to result in a 79 line).  However, you can use

   gq

with a motion/text-object to reformat such lines.

For more help:

   :help 'textwidth'
   :he gq

Hi, 'set tw' don't prevent too long lines from heppening.  But I
learned usage of 'gq' as you suggested, it can only fix too long line
by splitting it.  Is there any way better than this?  What I expected
is

1.  When I go exceed 79 characters in a line, vim auto-wrap or
auto-split for me ('gq' does a good job, but I hope it automatically
done)
2. For an older source file, I hope I can reformat it easily by
automatically splitting too long lines.

The point 2 is optional I think, but the point 1 is important and most useful.

I don't think you can check wether a certain font is installed on your

by Vim if the font is not installed:

try

A comma-separated list can be used, the first (leftmost) one found will

depending on GUI flavour: see

Re: very slow for xml

The XML file you attached has very long lines, which can slow down
Vim's syntax highlighting.  

A workaround is to set synmaxcol to a nonzero value so that Vim
doesn't attempt to highlight the entire line.  The highlighting can
get out of sync this way, however.

 Tell you users to do :hi Cursor, write down the result, and restore it
 by hand when needed.

 Thank you. you make me know there isn't a shortcut for it :)


Excuse me if that last post sounded unusually flippant; I had spent 
quite some time to write two quite general functions to save and restore 
the Cursor highlight regardless of what it is set to, which can be 
easily adapted (with an argument to the function) to save any arbitrary 
highlight group, just to get the answer: That's too complicated. Well, 
here's how to make it easier:

1. Copy my functions to the clipboard and paste them into your vimrc, or 
into some plugin.
2. To save the cursor highlight group, use :call SaveCursorColor()
3. To restore it, use :call RestoreCursorColor.

How simple do you want it to be?


Best regards,
Tony.

How to forward/backward to different marked positions(anchor) in vim?

2009-01-12 Thread Bysnn

Hi guys, I use vim to edit my PHP project, sometimes i need to jump to
the declaration of  functions and variables, or jump to many marked
positions. Maybe only in one file, i forward to many position
(anchor),  is there any plugin, or any usefull vim script to easy
forward/backword to the positions?  If it support to jump to different
file positions, that's good enough,

The feature i want just like in Zend Studio, you can use Alt-,,
Alt-. to forward/backward positions.

I have tried cscope, ctags, but these still not work perfectly, and
they dont save marks.  Maybe i need to save the specific positions
info, so i wrote a script, and it can jump from one file now.  Below
is part of my script, any errors,  pls correct me:), and if you know
any plugin, pls tell me, thanks.

RE: Rules for replying to posts on this list (Was: Easiest way to insert a blank line?)

2009-01-12 Thread Gene Kwiecinski

Rather than optimising how people post, I
would be happy simply to stop the recent flood of lazy top posting.

I don't know how other mail clients behave when it comes to hiding
various elements of messages, but for what it's worth:

Wellp, in general, unless a top-posted post is something along the lines
of Thanks! or That works great!, in which case I'd just delete it
immediately, it'd be something I wouldn't want to read backwards or
upside-down, in which case I'd *also* delete it immediately.  Ditto for
4 video-pages of nonstop ''s, or what *appears* to be so but is in fact
a line or two of actual reply but buried within with no blank lines to
set them off.  Or some cutesy html-formatted crap that makes real
quoting difficult (blockquoted with indentation, left-border colored,
etc.).  Or worse, some B'harni-awful colorscheme like green-on-red, or
*any* color on a blinding-white background.

Make it hard for me to read, and I just won't read it.  Simple.

If enough people were to have their posts ignored if top-posted (or
exhibiting any of the subsequent offenses), they might (eventually) be
inclined to change.  Simply rewarding bad behavior while complaining
about it changes nothing.

If you haven't seen the CSApprox.vim plugin, you might like it.  It

Well, using synIDattr() you should be able to get all the information
you need about any highlight group; which you can use to save it and
restore it later.  CSApprox can serve as an example of gathering that
info (s:Highlights()).  Though it never restores them it does use a
dictionary with the same sort of structure as s:Highlights() returns
to set colors later (s:SetCtermFromGui()).  My way is even more
complicated than Tony's, but is by necessity completely generic, and
doesn't rely on :redir (which is very slow, and is non-trivial to
parse).

/\v%(^[^]*%(%(%(\\.|[^\\])*)[^]*)*)@=abcd

makes sure that 0 or more fully quoted parts do match from the start of
the line up to the actual match for abcd in the same line.
basically an even number of quotes is required left from abcd, but
within a quoted part, escaped quotes (and other escaped chars) are
skipped.

use negative look-ahead and look-behind, something like:

should work. [^]abcd[^] will not work if abcd stand at the beginning or end

Or try it the Vim way:

Copy (for use only within Vim): y
Paste (last text copied with just y): p

This is an EXTREMELY simplified view. Read more at:

:help y
:help p
:help registers
:help quote+

and for that matter:

:help d
:help c

and many, many other commands that use registers, with help locations

Basically what the + notation does is tells Vim to use the system
clipboard rather than the internal one for the next operation.

it does not copy. Tried with ^C, control-insert but it does not copy

Re: fuzzyfinder plugin displays very lengthy absolute paths to matching files

2009-01-12 Thread Nate

I really like the fuzzyfinder plugin, but when my project is located
within a mediumly deep directory structure, the matched pathnames that
it displays in its dropdown are absolute, and hence too long to see what

Johnathan,

I added a kludge to fix this exact problem.

I hope that the original author doesn't mind me posting this kludge.
I've talked with the author, and he's really nice.

In ~/.vim/plugin/fuzzyfinder.vim, make the s:FormatCompletionItem
look like the function defined here:

http://notesmine.com/fuzzy_finder_kludge

Then, in your .vimrc, put this line:

let g:fuzzy_root=getcwd()

Now, let's say you have a project in projectA directory:

/my/really/deep/directory/of/projects/projectA/myfile.txt
/my/really/deep/directory/of/projects/projectA/src/foo.c

If you CD to /my/really/deep/directory/of/projects/projectA, then
open Vim using the commandline,

You should only see files like:

myfile.txt
src/foo.c

Instead of the files with /my/really/deep/directory/of/projects/
projectA appended to them.

Here's my screenshot:

 When started as evim, evim.vim will already have done these

 Try instead, press  (the literal double-quote character) and THEN
 press + (the literal plus character). After this, press the 'y' key.
 This is because instead of +y (select the '+' register and yank the
 text) you executed +y (move the cursor down one row and yank the text
 to Vim's unnamed register).
 If you want to paste by middle-click (rather than CTRL-V) then you
 will need to use * instead of + in the above commands. * is the
 selection register whereas + is the clipboard register. In
 Windows, these are the same...I apologize for that misunderstanding.

Ben something changed now.
It seems that, selecting, then pressing  * y it copies.
But it seems that if I paste it somewhere and then copy something else
it continues to paste the first thing I copied. It seems it does not
substitute
the first copied text with the last.

there a way to do that?

Also, I don't want to have to generate a tags file every time I want
to do this.  I basically want FuzzyFinder to automatically run the

 Thank you. you make me know there isn't a shortcut for it :)


 Excuse me if that last post sounded unusually flippant; I had spent
 quite some time to write two quite general functions to save and restore
 the Cursor highlight regardless of what it is set to, which can be
 easily adapted (with an argument to the function) to save any arbitrary
 highlight group, just to get the answer: That's too complicated. Well,
 here's how to make it easier:

 1. Copy my functions to the clipboard and paste them into your vimrc, or
 into some plugin.
 2. To save the cursor highlight group, use :call SaveCursorColor()
 3. To restore it, use :call RestoreCursorColor.

 How simple do you want it to be?

I'm really sorry for my talking sounds I ignore your excellent functions!
Last night is too late, so I didn't look at them clearly and patiently,
sorry!

About your functions, yes, it works for all hightlights! Thank you!

My last talking at last night about a simpler way means it still is  
complicated
comparing with the way like save/restore options, I thought there would be
a way like save/restore options for hightlights.

Thank you again for your nice functions, I learned from you a way that can
save/restore the highlights(Although I want a simpler way, I don't know  
how to
do it in other ways until you tell me), and sorry again for no patiently to
see the functions that taking you much time!

Re: selecting and coping in 7.2

 But it seems that if I paste it somewhere and then copy something else
 it continues to paste the first thing I copied. It seems it does not
 substitute the first copied text with the last.

I've noticed that recently, too, but it happens only sometimes and I
haven't been able to troubleshoot it.  I use vim 7.2.22 in an xterm
6.8.2 on a Red Hat system with KDE.  Very frustrating.

Re: Automatically make multiple folds for all text NOT containing search text

 Oh, but you can set up mappings for search commands as distinct from 
 mappings for ex-commands. Here's an example:

   :cnoremap expr CR ((getcmdtype == '/' BarBar getcmdtype == 
 '?')?BslashCR:set fdm=expr:'')

 The above requires Vim 7.0 or later, and of course with expression 
 evaluation compiled-in.

Can someone explain this a bit more slowly for me please?
And on vim 7.2 with +eval it gives me
E121: Undefined variable: getcmdtype
E15: Invalid expression: ((getcmdtype == '/' || getcmdtype
== '?')?\CR:set fdm=expr:'')

I have to use ZQ to get out; nothing with : works.

I can see we're mapping the CR you hit at the end of the
command, but after that I'm lost :-(

The 'getcmdtype' should be 'getcmdtype()'. I can't offer more help at
the moment, except that Tim gave a reply where he said he had updated
the command to (one line):

:cnoremap buffer expr cr (getcmdtype()=~'[/?]')
?\r:setlocal fdm=expr fde=(getline(v:lnum)=~@/)?0:1 fdl=0\r:\r

 What I expected is

 1.  When I go exceed 79 characters in a line, vim auto-wrap or

 See :help 'formatoptions' and :help fo-table for everything you can
 put in 'formatoptions'. You probably are looking for :setlocal fo+=t
 and :setlocal fo+=c. If you create a file, $HOME/vimfiles/after/
 ftplugin/xml.vim on Windows or $HOME/.vim/after/ftplugin/xml.vim on
 Unix, and place those two set commands in it, the setting will
 automatically be applied for every xml file. Personally, I also like fo
 +=l to allow me to enter long lines if I want to (note that gq will
 still work to reformat these lines manually).

 2. For an older source file, I hope I can reformat it easily by
 automatically splitting too long lines.


 gq is the way to go here. To reformat the entire file:

 gg (command to go to the first line in a file)
 gqG (reformat all lines until the end of the file)

It works!  Thank you very much!
