Problem:
The callback passed to `vim.wait` cannot return results directly, it
must set upvalues or globals.
local rv1, rv2, rv3
local ok = vim.wait(200, function()
rv1, rv2, rv3 = 'a', 42, { ok = { 'yes' } }
return true
end)
Solution:
Let the callback return values after the first "status" result.
local ok, rv1, rv2, rv3 = vim.wait(200, function()
return true, 'a', 42, { ok = { 'yes' } }
end)
tmux-direct is functionally the same as tmux-256color, except it
directly reports 24-bit color and how to set them (setaf/setab)
via ncurses 6.x's extended terminfo format.
Problem:
Hover response of MarkedString[] where the first element contains a
language identifier treated as empty.
Solution:
Fix empty check to handle case of MarkedString[] where the first element
is a pair of a language and value.
Problem:
Nvim does not have a core concept for indicating "progress" of
long-running tasks. The LspProgress event is specific to LSP.
Solution:
- `nvim_echo` can emit `kind="progress"` messages.
- Emits a `Progress` event.
- Includes new fields (id, status, percent) in the `msg_show` ui-event.
- The UI is expected to overwrite any message having the same id.
- Messages have a globally unique ID.
- `nvim_echo` returns the message ID.
- `nvim_echo(… {id=…})` updates existing messages.
Example:
local grp = vim.api.nvim_create_augroup("Msg", {clear = true})
vim.api.nvim_create_autocmd('Progress', {
pattern={"term"},
group = grp,
callback = function(ev)
print(string.format('event fired: %s', vim.inspect(ev))..'\n')
end
})
-- require('vim._extui').enable({enable=true, msg={target='msg', timeout=1000}})
vim.api.nvim_echo({{'searching'}}, true, {kind='progress', percent=80, status='running', title="terminal(ripgrep)"})
local id = vim.api.nvim_echo({{'searching'}}, true, {kind='progress', status='running', percent=10, title="terminal(ripgrep)"})
vim.api.nvim_echo({}, true, {id = id, kind='progress', percent=20, status = 'running', title='find tests'})
vim.api.nvim_echo({}, true, {id = id, kind='progress', status='running', percent=70})
vim.api.nvim_echo({{'complete'}}, true, {id = id, kind='progress', status='success', percent=100, title="find tests"})
Followups:
- Integrate with 'statusline' by listening to the Progress autocmd event.
- Integrate progress ui-event with `vim._extui`.
Problem: completion: not possible to delay the autcompletion
Solution: add the 'autocompletedelay' option value (Girish Palya).
This patch introduces a new global option 'autocompletedelay'/'acl' that
specifies the delay, in milliseconds, before the autocomplete menu
appears after typing.
When set to a non-zero value, Vim waits for the specified time before
showing the completion popup, allowing users to reduce distraction from
rapid suggestion pop-ups or to fine-tune the responsiveness of
completion.
The default value is 0, which preserves the current immediate-popup
behavior.

N/A patch: vim-patch:9.1.1641: a few compiler warnings are output
Co-authored-by: Girish Palya <girishji@gmail.com>
Problem: Some use cases might lead to `vim.pack.add()` failing to
`:packadd` a plugin because of missing entry in 'packpath'. Like with
`nvim --clean` or manually setting `$XDG_DATA_HOME` during startup.
Solution: Document it. A more proactive approach can be ensuring correct
'packpath' entry, but it is currently somewhat verbose to do (due to
having to adjust for Windows using `\` in 'packpath' entries).
Problem:
The load function in opts was difficult to use if you wished to
customize based on the plugin being loaded.
You could get the name, but without some way to mark a spec, that was of
limited usefulness unless you wanted to hardcode a list of names in the
function, or write a wrapper around the whole thing
Solution:
Allow users to provide an arbitrary data field in plugin specs so that
they may receive info as to how to handle that plugin in load, get() and
events, and act upon it

Problem: Unable to see e.g. `inputlist()` prompts that exceed the dialog
window height.
Multi-line prompts are not handled properly, and tracking
is insufficient for messages in cmdline_block mode.
Solution: Add vim.on_key handler while the dialog window is open that
forwards paging keys to the window.
Properly render multi-line prompts. Keep track of both the start
and end of the current cmdline prompt. Append messages after the
current prompt in cmdline_block mode.
Problem: filetype: Cangjie files are not recognized
Solution: Detect *.cj files as cangjie filetype, include a syntax plugin
(WuJunkai2004)
This commit introduces a new syntax highlighting file for the Cangjie
programming language, includes 4 parts as required:
- The main syntax file: runtime/syntax/cangjie.vim
- The filetype detection rule in: runtime/filetype.vim
- The documentation update in: runtime/doc/syntax.txt
- Some menus

Problem: many FileType autocommands assume curbuf is the same as the target
buffer; this can cause &syntax to be restored for the wrong buffer in some cases
when TSHighlighter:destroy is called.
Solution: run nvim_exec_autocmds in the context of the target buffer via
nvim_buf_call.
