[ANN] minpac v1.0: a minimal package manager for Vim 8
Hi all, I announce release of minpac ver 1.0. It is a minimal package manager for Vim 8 (and Neovim). https://github.com/k-takata/minpac Minpac utilizes the packages feature of Vim 8, and uses the jobs feature for parallel install/update. So, it is simple and fast. Have fun! Regards, Ken Takata -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.

Wow, that's impressive! The estimate for the German donations are a bit too high though. Last year was about 16,000 euro. If you wonder what the children get for the money: We recently had two students finish their university studies that we are proud of.

A million Euro raised for Uganda
Hey all, It looks like that as of 2017, about a million Euro in total has been raised for Uganda. See my answer here for details: https://vi.stackexchange.com/q/572/51 Of course, we don't know if it was all Vimmers that raised the million, but the majority probably is.

Vim documentation index.txt using word "buffer" for the word "register"
Dear All, I'm preparing a presentation of Vim's essentials hence I'm extensively browsing through Vim's documentation. Unless I'm mistaken it seems that in the index.txt file the word 'buffer' is quite often used in lieu of 'register'. I found this by chance while I was looking for the word 'buffer' (:help index :set hls /buffer). For instance: |C| ["x]C 2 change from the cursor position to the end of the line, and N-1 more lines [into buffer x]; synonym for "c$" Now if I follow the tag |C| (positioning my cursor on it, then typing CTRL-]) I read in change.txt: *C* ["x]C Delete from the cursor position to the end of the line and [count]-1 more lines [into register x], and start insert. Synonym for c$ (not |linewise|). The notation '"x' unambiguously refers to 'register x'. So in the index.txt file I think that one should read 'register' in lieu of 'buffer' while the text in change.txt uses the word 'register' correctly. This is mostly the case in section 2 (Normal mode) and once in section 2.4 (gp command). In other places (section 5 EX commands) the word 'buffer' seems to be always used appropriately. These small discrepancies might confuse new users. Indeed clear vocabulary and precise definitions are important in the learning process. I'm too new to Vim and far from an expert but I'd be very happy to contribute by reviewing the index.txt file and proposing an update with the word changes. It seems not too difficult: everywhere one reads '["x]' one should also read '[into register x]'. However I'd prefer to pass my updates to someone with expertise and authority to review my proposed changes. Note: I found it in Vim version 7.4 and 8.0 Thanks in advance for your feedback.

To disable it, put this in your ~/.vimrc:
if exists("#fedora#BufNewFile#/media/*")
au! fedora BufNewFile /media/*
endif
if exists("#fedora#BufNewFile#/mnt/*")
au! fedora BufNewFile /mnt/*
endif
if exists("#fedora#BufReadPre#/media/*")
au! fedora BufReadPre /media/*
endif
if exists("#fedora#BufReadPre#/mnt/*")
au! fedora BufReadPre /mnt/*
endif
That will test for the presence of each of those autocommand events
and patterns in the fedora group and remove them.
Regards,
Gary

Re: Swap directory changes when opening files under /media [Fedora]
Perfect, thanks. Here's what I get: --- Auto-Commands --- fedora BufReadPre /media/* set directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp Last set from /etc/vimrc /run/media/* set directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp Last set from /etc/vimrc /mnt/*set directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp Last set from /etc/vimrc ... This lead me to /etc/vimrc which has a line: " don't write swapfile on most commonly used directories for NFS mounts or USB sticks autocmd BufNewFile,BufReadPre /media/*,/run/media/*,/mnt/* set directory=~/tmp,/var/tmp,/tmp Which confuses me. The aim appears to be to NOT write swap files but all it does is change the location of swap files. And I do want swap files for my mounts in case of recovery. I am tempted to remove this line though it feels a bit hacky to change this in /etc/vimrc. I will see if I can work out how to override this autocmd in my own profile perhaps. -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post!
