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:
Since e049c6e4c0, most statusline-like UI elements can combine
highlight attrs, except for sign/statuscolumn.
Solution:
Implement for sign/statuscolumn.
**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:
vim.json.encode escapes every slash in string values (for example in
file paths), and is not optional. Use-case is for preventing HTML
injections (eg. injecting `</script>` closing tag); in the context of
Nvim this is rarely useful.
Solution:
- Add a `escape_slash` flag to `vim.json.encode`.
- Defaults to `false`. (This is a "breaking" change, but more like
a bug fix.)
This commit also implements more generic trimming, acting on all
whitespace (charwise) rather than just empty lines.
It will unblock
https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/pull/3442 and allow
for properly concealing markdown bullet markers regardless of indent
width, e.g.
1. Use the new "u" action to update the quickfix list so we don't lose
our position in the quickfix list when updating it.
2. Rather than creating a new quickfix list each time, update the
exiting one if we've already created one.
* refactor(shared): extract `vim._list_insert` and `vim._list_remove`
* feat(lsp): add `vim.lsp.foldexpr()`
* docs(lsp): add a todo for state management
* feat(lsp): add `vim.lsp.folding_range.foldclose()`
* feat(lsp): schedule `foldclose()` if the buffer is not up-to-date
* feat(lsp): add `vim.lsp.foldtext()`
* feat(lsp): support multiple folding range providers
* refactor(lsp): expose all folding related functions under `vim.lsp.*`
* perf(lsp): add `lsp.MultiHandler` for do `foldupdate()` only once
Enabling private DEC mode 2031 tells the terminal to notify Nvim
whenever the OS theme changes (i.e. light mode to dark mode or vice
versa) or the terminal emulator's palette changes. When we receive one
of these notifications we query the terminal color's background color
again to see if it has changed and update the value of 'background' if
it has.
We only do this though if the user has not explicitly set the value of
'bg' themselves. The help text is updated slightly to hint to users that
they probably shouldn't set this value: on modern terminal emulators
Nvim is able to completely determine this automatically.
Problem:
`vim.loader.disable` does not conform to `:help dev-name-common` and
`:help dev-patterns`.
Solution:
- Add `enable` parameter to `vim.loader.enable`
- Remove `vim.loader.disable`
- Note the change in `:help news-breaking-dev` (HEAD changes).
- This is not a breaking change (except to "HEAD") because
`vim.loader` is marked "experimental".

Problem:
LSP spec uses the term "position encoding" where we say "offset encoding".
Solution:
- Rename it everywhere except `vim.lsp.Client.offset_encoding` (which would be breaking).
- Mention "position encoding" in the documentation for `vim.lsp.Client.offset_encoding`.
The newer UCRT runtime has native support for UTF-8, including forcing
it as the active codepage even before `main()` is called. This means
the c runtime will properly convert windows WCHAR:s into UTF-8 bytes,
as early as the argv/argc params to `main()` . Whereas MSVCRT does not
support this reliably and required us to use `wmain()`.
Only MSVC supports using manifest files directly as source files.
The solution for other Windows toolchains is to use a .rc file.
Problem:
Since [version 3.17](https://microsoft.github.io/language-server-protocol/specifications/lsp/3.17/specification/#textDocuments),
LSP supports specifying the position encoding (aka offset encoding) supported by
the client through `positionEncoding`. Since #31209, Nvim fully supports
`utf-8`, `utf-16`, and `utf-32` encodings.
Previously, nvim assumed all clients for a buffer had the same
`offset_encoding`, so:
* Nvim provides `vim.lsp._get_offset_encoding()` to get `offset_encoding`, but
this function is incorrect because `offset_encoding` is per-client, not
per-buffer.
* Based on the strategy of `vim.lsp._get_offset_encoding()`,
`vim.lsp.util.make_position_params()`, `vim.lsp.util.make_range_params()`, and
`vim.lsp.util.make_given_range_params()` do not require the caller to pass
`offset_encoding`, which is invalid.
* https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/25272
Solution:
* Mark `vim.lsp._get_offset_encoding()` as `@deprecated`.
* Change the type annotations of `vim.lsp.util.make_position_params()`,
`vim.lsp.util.make_range_params()`, `vim.lsp.util.make_given_range_params()`
to require the `offset_encoding` param.
**Problem:** Despite the LSP providing the option for language servers
to specify a range with a hover response (for highlighting), Neovim does
not give the option to highlight this range.
**Solution:** Add an option to `buf.hover()` which causes this range to
be highlighted.

Problem: Lua callbacks for "msg_show" events with vim.ui_attach() are
executed when it is not safe.
Solution: Disallow non-fast API calls for "msg_show" event callbacks.
Automatically detach callback after excessive errors.
Make sure fast APIs do not modify Nvim state.
Problem: Ext_messages chunks only contain the highlight attr id, which
is not very useful for vim.ui_attach() consumers.
Solotion: Add highlight group id to message chunks, which can easily be
used to highlight text in the TUI through nvim_buf_set_extmark():
hl_group = synIDattr(id, "name").
Problem:
There are three different ways of marking an option as hidden, `enable_if
= false`, `hidden = true` and `immutable = true`. These also have different
behaviors. Options hidden with `enable_if = false` can't have their value
fetched using Vim script or the API, but options hidden with `hidden = true` or
`immutable = true` can. On the other hand, options with `hidden = true` do not
error when trying to set their value, but options with `immutable = true` do.
Solution:
Remove `enable_if = false`, remove the `hidden` property for options, and use
`immutable = true` to mark an option as hidden instead. Also make hidden option
variable pointers always point to the default value, which allows fetching the
value of every hidden option using Vim script and the API. This does also mean
that trying to set a hidden option will now give an error instead of just being
ignored.
- Partition the handlers in vim.lsp.handlers as:
- client to server response handlers (RCS)
- server to client request handlers (RSC)
- server to client notification handlers (NSC)
Note use string indexes instead of protocol.methods for improved
typing in LuaLS (tip: use hover on RCS, RSC or NSC).
feat(diagnostics)!: sort underline with severity_sort
BREAKING CHANGE: underline will be applied with a higher value than `vim.hl.priorities.diagnostics`
* deprecate old signatures
* move to new str_byteindex/str_utfindex signature
* use single-underscore name (double-underscore is reserved for Lua itself)
Problem: We use `void *` for option default values, which is confusing and can cause problems with type-correctness. It also doesn't accomodate for multitype options. On top of that, it also leads to default boolean option values not behaving correctly on big endian systems.
Solution: Use `OptVal` for option default values.
BREAKING CHANGE:
- `:set {option}<` removes the local value for all global-local options instead of just string global-local options.
- `:setlocal {option}<` copies the global value to the local value for number and boolean global-local options instead of removing the local value.
