Hello Vim developers,
The current discussion about v:register and "unnamedplus" reminded me of
a patch I had sent some time ago. It used to be in the todo list, but
apparently isn't any more. (Maybe it was accidentally removed when Bram
accepted another related same-day patch from me.)
To recap, I'd like to improve the help text for v:register and correct
the edge case of v:register value immediately after startup. Old message
and revised help text suggestion below.
Please make this patch against the latest version. I did include some
of it.
Ah, sorry. It's hard to keep up with the runtime updates, as you do them
in batches, not atomic commits referencing the patch or origin. I'm fine
with the updated help text, so there's only the issue of the initial
(empty) value of v:register immediately after startup. Granted, it's an
edge case that only occurs when the very first command given is a custom
normal mode mapping that uses v:register, but a bug nonetheless. This
patch, updated against 7.3.322, fixes it.
