We currently enable the OSC 52 clipboard provider by setting g:clipboard
when a list of conditions are met, one of which is that $SSH_TTY must be
set. We include this condition because often OSC 52 is not the best
clipboard provider, so if there are "local" providers available Nvim
should prefer those over OSC 52.
However, if no other providers are available, Nvim should use OSC 52
even when $SSH_TTY is not set. When a user is in an SSH session then the
checks for the other clipboard providers will still (typically) fail, so
OSC 52 continues to be enabled by default in SSH sessions.
This is marked as a breaking change because there are some cases where
OSC 52 wasn't enabled before and is now (or vice versa).
vim-patch:9.1.0983: not able to get the displayed items in complete_info()
Problem: not able to get the displayed items in complete_info()
(Evgeni Chasnovski)
Solution: return the visible items via the "matches" key for
complete_info() (glepnir)
fixes: vim/vim#10007closes: vim/vim#16307d4088edae2
Problem: There is currently no way to check if a given path is absolute or convert a relative path to an absolute path through the Lua stdlib. `vim.fs.joinpath` does not work when the path is absolute. There is also currently no way to resolve `C:foo\bar` style paths in Windows.
Solution: Add `vim.fs.abspath`, which allows converting any path to an absolute path. This also allows checking if current path is absolute by doing `vim.fs.abspath(path) == path`. It also has support for `C:foo\bar` style paths in Windows.
If root_dir is a function it is evaluated when the client is created to
determine the root directory.
This enables dynamically determining the root directory based on e.g.
project or directory structure (example: finding a parent Cargo.toml
file that contains "[workspace]" in a Rust project).
Problem: fuzzy-matching does not prefer full match
(Maxim Kim)
Solution: add additional score for a full match

Problem:
The :has() method of the vim.version.range() result is not documented
though it's mentioned in examples.
Solution:
Mention it in the range() result doc.
Problem: Unable to tell what highlight the prompt part of a
cmdline_show event should have, and whether cmdline_hide was
emitted after aborting.
Solution: Add additional arguments hl_id to cmdline_show, and abort to
cmdline_hide.
Problem: LSP configs on the runtimepath must have the same name as the
LSP server and must also explicitly set the name in vim.lsp.config. This
is redundant and creates a footgun where a user may accidentally use the
wrong name when assigning to the vim.lsp.config table.
Solution: Return a table from lsp/ runtimepath files instead
Problem:
`termopen` has long been a superficial wrapper around `jobstart`, and
has no real purpose. Also, `vim.system` and `nvim_open_term` presumably
will replace all features of `jobstart` and `termopen`, so centralizing
the logic will help with that.
Solution:
- Introduce `eval/deprecated.c`, where all deprecated eval funcs will live.
- Introduce "term" flag of `jobstart`.
- Deprecate `termopen`.
Problem:
Language server version information missing from `:checkhealth vim.lsp`.
Solution:
Store `InitializeResult.serverInfo.version` from the `initialize`
response and display for each client in `:checkhealth vim.lsp`.
Problem: cannot highlight completed text
Solution: (optionally) highlight auto-completed text using the
ComplMatchIns highlight group (glepnir)

When a terminal application running inside the terminal emulator sets
the cursor shape or blink status of the cursor, update the cursor in the
parent terminal to match.
This removes the "virtual cursor" that has been in use by the terminal
emulator since the beginning. The original rationale for using the
virtual cursor was to avoid having to support additional UI methods to
change the cursor color for other (non-TUI) UIs, instead relying on the
TermCursor and TermCursorNC highlight groups.
The TermCursor highlight group is now used in the default 'guicursor'
value, which has a new entry for Terminal mode. However, the
TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported: since terminal
windows now use the real cursor, when the window is not focused there is
no cursor displayed in the window at all, so there is nothing to
highlight. Users can still use the StatusLineTermNC highlight group to
differentiate non-focused terminal windows.
BREAKING CHANGE: The TermCursorNC highlight group is no longer supported.
Problem: hard to view an existing buffer in the preview window
Solution: add the :pbuffer command (Yinzuo Jiang)
Similar as `:pedit` and `:buffer` command. `:pbuffer` edits buffer [N]
from the buffer list in the preview window.
`:pbuffer` can also open special buffer, for example terminal buffer.

1) move the section at :h inclusive-motion-selection-exclusive a few
lines below, so that it doesn't live in between the 2 exceptions.
2) remove the tag :h :!-range. It's not accurate (because it is actually
a filter) and this command is already described at :h :range!

Problem:
- API functions using `try_start` directly, do not surface the
underlying error message, and instead show generic messages.
- Error-handling code is duplicated in the API impl.
- Failure modes are not tested.
Solution:
- Use `TRY_WRAP`.
- Add tests.
Problem:
Since e049c6e4c0, most statusline-like UI elements can combine
highlight attrs, except for sign/statuscolumn.
Solution:
Implement for sign/statuscolumn.
Problem: filetype: some assembler are files not recognized

**Problem:** Currently, it is difficult to get node(s)-level metadata
for a capture returned by `get_captures_at_pos()`. This is because it is
stored in `metadata[id]` and we do not have access to the value of `id`,
so to get this value we have to iterate over the keys of `metadata`. See
[this commit](d636229300 (diff-8bd4742121c2f359d0345f3c6c253a58220f1a28670cc4e1c957992232059a6cR16)).
Things would be much simpler if we were given the `id` of the capture so
we could use it to just index `metadata` directly.
**Solution:** Include `id` in the data returned by
`get_captures_at_pos()`
Design goals/requirements:
- Default configuration of a server can be distributed across multiple sources.
- And via RTP discovery.
- Default configuration can be specified for all servers.
- Configuration _can_ be project specific.
Solution:
- Two new API's:
- `vim.lsp.config(name, cfg)`:
- Used to define default configurations for servers of name.
- Can be used like a table or called as a function.
- Use `vim.lsp.confg('*', cfg)` to specify default config for all
servers.
- `vim.lsp.enable(name)`
- Used to enable servers of name. Uses configuration defined
via `vim.lsp.config()`.
- Problem: cannot replace the initial bufwrite message (from `filemess`) by the final one (`"test.lua" [New] 0L, 0B written`), when using `vim.ui_attach`.
- Solution: add kind to both messages.

Problem: :sleep! not hiding the cursor is an arbitrary difference from
Vim without obvious justification, and Vim's behavior isn't
easily achievable in Nvim.
Solution: Make :sleep! hide the cursor while sleeping.
