Hi, Issue: Vim adds EOL to the end of each text file
Although my change might seem controversial, it looks like a lot of people (including myself) really want it, especially when using Vim on non-Unix systems (e.g. Windows). You can notice it here: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Preserve_missing_end-of-line_at_end_of_text_files http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=4550 and in several questions on stackoverflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1050640 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4133501 http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14171254 http://askubuntu.com/questions/13317 The solution suggested in Vim FAQ (5.4) http://vimdoc.sourceforge.net/htmldoc/vimfaq.html includes some side-effects like inability to use 'expandtab', 'textwidth' and some other options (incl. Unicode BOM). My proposed change introduces the new option called 'respecteol' (that's the best name I could come up with) which affects the EOL at the end of file the same way as the 'binary' option does, while not changing any other aspects. The option is local to a buffer, so it can be set depending on a filetype. Please let me know if this can be merged. Thank you. -- Best regards, Pavel -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
