Problem: No terminal emulator support. Cannot properly run commands in the
GUI. Cannot run a job interactively with an ssh connection.
Solution: Very early implementation of the :terminal command. Includes
libvterm converted to ANSI C. Many parts still missing.
Problem: Crash when closing the quickfix window in a FileType autocommand
that triggers when the quickfix window is opened.
Solution: Save the new value before triggering the OptionSet autocommand.
Add the "starting" flag to test_override() to make the text work.
Problem: Can't use input() in a timer callback. (Cosmin Popescu)
Solution: Reset vgetc_busy and set timer_busy. (Ozaki Kiichi, closes#1790,
closes#1129)
Problem: When 'hlsearch' is set and matching with the last search pattern
is very slow, Vim becomes unusable. Cannot quit search by
pressing CTRL-C.
Solution: When the search times out set a flag and don't try again. Check
for timeout and CTRL-C in NFA loop that adds states.
Problem: writefile() continues after detecting an error.
Solution: Bail out as soon as an error is detected. (suggestions by Nikolai
Pavlov, closes#1476)
Problem: shellescape() always escapes a newline, which does not work with
some shells. (Harm te Hennepe)
Solution: Only escape a newline when the "special" argument is non-zero.
(Christian Brabandt, closes#1590)
Problem: Getting the window position fails if both the GUI and term
code is built in.
Solution: Return after getting the GUI window position. (Kazunobu Kuriyama)
Problem: Test_edit causes older xfce4-terminal to close. (Dominique Pelle)
Solution: Reduce number of columns to 2000. Try to restore the window
position.
Problem: Getting name of cleared highlight group is wrong. (Matt Wozniski)
Solution: Only skip over cleared names for completion. (closes#1592)
Also fix that a cleared group causes duplicate completions.
Problem: Not enough testing for the client-server feature.
Solution: Add more tests. Add the remote_startserver() function. Fix that
a locally evaluated expression uses function-local variables.
Problem: The return value of mode() does not indicate that completion is
active in Replace and Insert mode. (Zhen-Huan (Kenny) Hu)
Solution: Add "c" or "x" for two kinds of completion. (Yegappan Lakshmanan,
closes#1397) Test some more modes.
Problem: It is not so easy to write a script that works with both Python 2
and Python 3, even when the Python code works with both.
Solution: Add 'pyxversion', :pyx, etc. (Marc Weber, Ken Takata)
Problem: When making a character lower case with tolower() changes the byte
cound, it is not made lower case.
Solution: Add strlow_save(). (Dominique Pelle, closes#1406)
Problem: Ubsan reports errors for integer overflow.
Solution: Define macros for minimum and maximum values. Select an
expression based on the value. (Mike Williams)
Problem: Warning for an unused parameter when the libcall feature is
disabled. Warning for a function type cast when compiling with
-pedantic.
Solution: Add UNUSED. Use a different type cast. (Damien Molinier)
Problem: When compiling with EBCDIC defined the build fails. (Yaroslav
Kuzmin)
Solution: Move sortFunctions() to the right file. Avoid warning for
redefining __SUSV3.
Problem: str2nr() and str2float() do not always work with negative values.
Solution: Be more flexible about handling signs. (LemonBoy, closes#1332)
Add more tests.
Problem: JSON with a duplicate key gives an internal error. (Lcd)
Solution: Give a normal error. Avoid an error when parsing JSON from a
remote client fails.
Problem: To pass buffer content to system() and systemlist() one has to
first create a string or list.
Solution: Allow passing a buffer number. (LemonBoy, closes#1240)
Problem: When reading channel output in a timer, messages may go missing.
(Skywind)
Solution: Add the "drop" option. Write error messages in the channel log.
Don't have ch_canread() check for the channel being open.
Problem: When using ch_read() with zero timeout, can't tell the difference
between reading an empty line and nothing available.
Solution: Add ch_canread().
Problem: When the input or output is not a tty Vim appears to hang.
Solution: Add the --ttyfail argument. Also add the "ttyin" and "ttyout"
features to be able to check in Vim script.
