Hi,
When I set a filetype for a buffer the variable b:did_ftplugin is set.
The help says:
If you are writing a filetype plugin to be used by many people, they need a
chance to disable loading it. Put this at the top of the plugin: >
" Only do this when not done yet for this buffer
if exists("b:did_ftplugin")
finish
endif
let b:did_ftplugin = 1
Now, when I do set ft=X from the command line, it happens that the
ftplugin X doesn't get loaded because it finishes when b:did_ftplugin is
set.
When is b:did_ftplugin ever unset? What's the rationale of setting
b:did_ftplugin and not b:did_ftplugin_X?
Regards,
Thomas.
