Hi, I'd like to request a feature in Vim which would be useful not very often but is very important I think.
Usually I don't lose information in Vim. You can undo things, you can restore the file from a backup etc. There is only one situation which led me to information loss several times. This situation happens when I have a file with modifications opened in Vim and then I also change this file by accident outside of Vim. In this case Vim shows a message box with 2 buttons: reload file or don't reload file. Several times I pressed "reload file" by accident. And my changes in Vim were lost! Undo didn't work after that. I don't know if it's difficult to implement but it would be great if undo worked after such reload. And this would be useful not only for "by accident" cases - I could also press "reload" just to see what those external changes are and then undo if I don't need them. P.S. Persistent undo would be great too. :) --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
