When a plugin registers a TermRequest handler there is currently no way
for the handler to know where the terminal's cursor position was when
the sequence was received. This is often useful information, e.g. for
OSC 133 sequences which are used to annotate shell prompts.
Modify the event data for the TermRequest autocommand to be a table
instead of just a string. The "sequence" field of the table contains the
sequence string and the "cursor" field contains the cursor
position when the sequence was received.
To maintain consistency between TermRequest and TermResponse (and to
future proof the latter), TermResponse's event data is also updated to
be a table with a "sequence" field.
BREAKING CHANGE: event data for TermRequest and TermResponse is now a
table
Problem: After 47aaddfa the max_height option is no longer respected.
Hover documentation and Signature help windows take up the
entire text height.
Solution: Compare to window's current height and only modify the height
if it would reduce the height, not enlarge it.
When multiple diagnostics appear on a single line, the virtual lines for
all diagnostics except the first were rendered with progressively fewer
columns.
Problem: command-line auto-completion hard with wildmenu
Solution: implement "noselect" wildoption value (Girish Palya)
When `noselect` is present in `wildmode` and 'wildmenu' is enabled, the
completion menu appears without pre-selecting the first item.
This change makes it easier to implement command-line auto-completion,
where the menu dynamically appears as characters are typed, and `<Tab>`
can be used to manually select an item. This can be achieved by
leveraging the `CmdlineChanged` event to insert `wildchar(m)`,
triggering completion menu.
Without this change, auto-completion using the 'wildmenu' mechanism is
not feasible, as it automatically inserts the first match, preventing
dynamic selection.
The following Vimscript snippet demonstrates how to configure
auto-completion using `noselect`:
```vim
vim9script
set wim=noselect:lastused,full wop=pum wcm=<C-@> wmnu
autocmd CmdlineChanged : timer_start(0, function(CmdComplete, [getcmdline()]))
def CmdComplete(cur_cmdline: string, timer: number)
var [cmdline, curpos] = [getcmdline(), getcmdpos()]
if cur_cmdline ==# cmdline # Avoid completing each character in keymaps and pasted text
&& !pumvisible() && curpos == cmdline->len() + 1
if cmdline[curpos - 2] =~ '[\w*/:]' # Reduce noise by completing only selected characters
feedkeys("\<C-@>", "ti")
set eventignore+=CmdlineChanged # Suppress redundant completion attempts
timer_start(0, (_) => {
getcmdline()->substitute('\%x00$', '', '')->setcmdline() # Remove <C-@> if no completion items exist
set eventignore-=CmdlineChanged
})
endif
endif
enddef
```

**Problem:** Some weird languages have different comment syntax
depending on the location in the code, and we do not have a way to
determine the correct `commentstring` for these special cases.
**Solution:** Allow queries to specify `commentstring` values in
metadata, allowing users/`nvim-treesitter` to provide a better
commenting experience without hugely increasing the scope of the code in
core.
Problem: preinsert requires bot "menu" and "menuone" to be set,
but "menu" is redundant (after v9.1.1160)
Solution: preinsert only requires menuone (glepnir)

Problem: The 'preinsert' feature requires Ctrl-Y to confirm insertion,
but Ctrl-Y only works when the popup menu (pum) is displayed.
Without enforcing this dependency, it could lead to confusing
behavior or non-functional features.
Solution: Modify ins_compl_has_preinsert() to check for both 'menu' and
'menuone' flags when 'preinsert' is set. Update documentation
to clarify this requirement. This avoids adding complex
conditional behaviors. (glepnir)

Problem: No way to check the version of a treesitter parser.
Solution: Add version metadata (ABI 15 parsers only) as well as parser state count and supertype information (ABI 15) in `vim.treesitter.language.inspect()`. Also graduate the `abi_version` field, as this is now the official upstream name.

Problem: _on_conceal_line callbacks are not invoked if callback has not
let Nvim know it wants to receive them. But this may change on
factors other than what is currently checked (changed buffer).
Solution: Forego this optimization, callback is still guarded behind
'conceallevel'.
Problem:
Descriptions are somewhat vague. nvim_set_current_line modifies contents
but nvim_set_current_buf does not, etc.
Solution:
- Make it clear that these functions accept or return a winid/tabid by
linking to that concept in help.
- Only these few files use the term "handles", so replace them with the
more conventional terminology.
- Add a new help section for tab-ID. This concept is unique to neovim
because vim exposes tabnr, but not tab handles. This section is
modelled after `:h winid`.
Problem:
Indenting text is a common task in plugins/scripts for
presentation/formatting, yet vim has no way of doing it (especially
"dedent", and especially non-buffer text).
Solution:
Introduce `vim.text.indent()`. It sets the *exact* indentation because
that's a more difficult (and thus more useful) task than merely
"increasing the current indent" (which is somewhat easy with a `gsub()`
one-liner).
Problem: Height of a (markdown) `vim.lsp.util.open_floating_preview()`
window can be reduced to account for concealed lines (after #31324).
Solution: Set the window height to the text height of the preview window.
Set 'concealcursor' to avoid unconcealing the cursorline when
entering the hover window.
TSHighlighter now places marks for conceal_lines metadata. A new
internal decor provider callback _on_conceal_line was added that
instructs the highlighter to place conceal_lines marks whenever the
editor needs to know whether a line is concealed. The bundled markdown
queries use conceal_lines metadata to conceal code block fence lines.
Lua coroutines can yield across non-coroutine function boundaries,
meaning that we don't need to wrap each helper function in a coroutine
and resume it within `_parse()`. If we just have them yield when
appropriate, this will be caught by the top level `_parse()` coroutine,
and resuming the `_parse()` will resume from the position in the helper
function where we yielded last.
Problem: It's difficult to navigate large structured text files (vim
help, checkhealth, Markdown).
Solution: Support `gO` for table of contents and `]]`/`[[` for moving
between headings for all these filetypes using treesitter queries.
Refactor: colorization of highlight groups is moved to the `help` ftplugin
while headings-related functionality is implemented in a private
`vim.treesitter` module for possible future use for other filetypes.
Problem:
After https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/32377 selecting snippets
provided by luals inserted the multi-line text before accepting the
candidates. That's inconsistent with servers who provide `textEdit`
instead of `insertText` and having lines shift up/down while cycling
through the completion candidates is a bit irritating.
Solution:
Use the logic used for `textEdit` snippets also for `insertText`
**Problem:** Currently, parsing is asynchronous, but it involves a
(sometimes lengthy) step which finds all injection ranges for a tree by
iterating over that language's injection queries. This causes edits in
large files to be extremely slow, and also causes a long stutter during
the initial parse of a large file.
**Solution:** Break up the injection query iteration over multiple event
loop iterations.
**Problem:** An erroneous query in the treesitter highlighter gives a
deluge of errors that makes the editor almost unusable.
**Solution:** Detach the highlighter after an error is detected, so that
it only gets displayed once (per highlighter instance).
Problem: Computing fold levels for an empty buffer (somehow) breaks the
parser state, resulting in a broken highlighter and foldexpr.
Cached foldexpr parser is invalid after filetype has changed.
Solution: Avoid computing fold levels for empty buffer.
Clear cached foldinfos upon `FileType`.
Problem: `vim.treesitter._create_parser()` silently loads the buffer,
bypassing the swapfile prompt.
Solution: Error for an unloaded buffer, ensure buffer is loaded in
`vim.treesitter.start()` instead.
We need to add a separate variable to keep track of this information,
since we cannot read the length of the valid regions table itself, since
it has holes.
