Hi, Consider this line of text: "abc def". If the cursor is on "d" and you type "Dix<esc>" in normal mode, the result will depend on the value of 'virtualedit'.
* when ve="", you get "abcx " * when ve="onemore", you get "abc x" * when ve="all", you get "abc x" You will find that you get the same results if you define this function and call it: function Foo() execute "normal! Dix\e" endfunction Now consider these two variations: function Foo1() set ve=onemore execute "normal! Dix\e" endfunction function Foo2() set ve=all execute "normal! Dix\e" endfunction If you begin with ve="" and try calling these functions, you will be surprised: * with Foo1, you get "abc x" * with Foo2, you get "abcx " This really threw me for a loop -- it took me forever to figure out why my script wasn't working this morning. Is this behavior intentional or should I submit a bug? - Aaron -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist. Do not top-post! Type your reply below the text you are replying to.
