Vim supports multiple locations for the user's vimrc, so it will use the
first one that is found, ignoring the rest. Nvim follows the XDG spec,
so there is only one place to look for the user's vimrc, thus making the
statement unnecessary and confusing for nvim users.
Ref #8871
Problem: Minor issues related to quickfix.
Solution: Set the proper return status for all cases in setqflist() and at
test cases for this. Move the "adding" flag outside of
FEAT_WINDOWS. Minor update to the setqflist() help text. (Yegappan

* vim-patch:8.0.0474: the client-server feature is not tested
Problem: The client-server feature is not tested.
Solution: Add a test.
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/15bf76d40be1f1622ff5cc16596c308e76e2ca94
* vim-patch:8.0.0475: not enough testing for the client-server feature
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.

* vim-patch:8.0.0492: a failing client-server request can make Vim hang
Problem: A failing client-server request can make Vim hang.
Solution: Add a timeout argument to functions that wait.

Include src/nvim/testdir/test_clientserver.vim changes from
patches 8.0.0477, 8.0.0479.
* vim-patch:8.0.0633: the client-server test is still a bit flaky
Problem: The client-server test is still a bit flaky.
Solution: Wait a bit for the GUI to start. Check that the version number
can be obtained.

This implements the compromise described in #7383:
* low-priority CursorLine if foreground is not set
* high-priority ("same as Vim" priority) CursorLine if foreground is set

ref 56eda2aa17
This changes Ex mode (Q, -e) to work like Vim's "improved Ex mode"
(gQ, -E). That brings some small behavior differences, but should not
impact most Ex scripts (unless, for example, they depend on mappings
being disabled--but that can be solved for -e by skipping user config).
Before this change:
* the screen test hangs.
After this change:
* Q acts like gQ.
* -e/-es differs from -E/-Es only in its treatment of stdin.
This moves towards potentially removing getexmodeline().
(HINT: That does NOT mean "removing Ex mode", it means removing the
Vi-compatible Ex mode, which differs from Vim's "improved Ex mode" only
in some minor details (e.g. mappings are disabled).)
ref #1089 :-)~
Fixes 2 failing tests in startup_spec.lua.
The Windows-only `--literal` option complicates support of "stdin-as-text
+ file-args" (#7679). Could work around it, but it's not worth
the trouble:
- users have a reasonable (and englightening) alternative: nvim +"n *"
- "always literal" is more consistent/predictable
- avoids platform-specific special-case
Unrelated changes:
- Replace fileno(stdxx) with STDXX_FILENO for consistency (not motivated
by any observed technical reason).
Problem: Character classes are not well tested. They can differ between
platforms.
Solution: Add tests. In the documentation make clear which classes depend
on what library function. Only use :cntrl: and :graph: for ASCII.
(Kazunobu Kuriyama, Dominique Pelle, closesvim/vim#1560)
Update the documentation.
