The meaning of `s:f.Foo` changed: when `s:f.Foo` is a function it is no longer a simple dictionary indexing. Neovim outputs `{'Foo': function('3'), 'Bar': function('3', {...@0})}` in this case BTW: `string()` and `:echo` implementation was seriously refactored in Neovim. > > -- > Andy > > > -- > -- > You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist. > Do not top-post!
