Hello:
I've got a plugin that I wrote years ago that I only just noticed is
misbehaving; ie. it used to work properly but it no longer does.
So, I thought what I'd like to do is to get vim 9.0 back (with no
patches) and see if that worked. Then, if the plugin continues to
misbehave, then I'd like to get vim 8.0. Once I have a version of vim
where the plugin works I'd like to use git bisect to find the
problematic patch. I realize that I'd have to learn more git. So, how to
get vim 9.0, vim 8.0?
I've traced the problem to visual mode stuff. Essentially, use visual
mode to select some text, delete and move it to the end of file, operate
on it, and move it back. When I do the commands that the plugin issues
by hand, things work correctly. When the plugin does those same
commands, instead of putting back the column of text vim forgets to use
visual-block mode style insert (and visualmode() is still returning a
ctrl-v before&after).
