Problem: Consecutive "msg_show" events stemming from an `:echon`
command are supposed to be appended without a newline, this
information is not encoded in the "msg_show" event.
Solution: Add an "append" parameter to the "msg_show" event that is set
to true to indicate the message should not start on a new line.
Considered alternative: Emit a newline for the common case instead at the
start of a new message. That way UIs can more closely follow the logic
as it is implemented for the message grid currently. This would be a
breaking change. The "append" parameter seems OK.
Problem: When scrolling (the text) down with 'smoothscroll', filler
lines are revealed before the text skipped with `w_skipcol`.
Solution: Check `w_skipcol` before filler lines.
Problem: tests: no test for mapping with special keys in session file.
Solution: Add a special keys to an existing test. Also test with UTF-8
characters containing 0x80 or 0x9b bytes (zeertzjq).

Problem: wrong link to Chapter 2 in vim-01-beginner.tutor
Solution: Fix the link to Chapter 2, add test for links in tutor files
(Phạm Bình An)
In order to write the test, I exposed the function `s:GlobTutorials` as
`tutor#GlobTutorials` and make it also accept a `locale` argument.

Problem:
Some LSPs cause the following completion error (reformatted slightly):
Error executing vim.schedule lua callback:
.../runtime/lua/vim/lsp/completion.lua:373
attempt to index field 'range' (a nil value)
This is because an internal function assumes edits are either missing
or of type `TextEdit`, but there's a third [possibility][0] that's not
handled: the `InsertReplaceEdit`.
This was previously reported in at least two issues:
- https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/33142
- https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/33224
Solution:
Don't assume the edit is a `TextEdit`. This implicitly handles
`InsertReplaceEdit`s.
Also, add a test case for this, which previously caused an error.

Problem:
Because the buffer in the window may change before the request is completed, foldclose() might be executed on the wrong buffer.
Solution:
Avoid that.
Copy whatever was made to work for generated headers:
(1) we need to consider all cmake targets not just main_lib
(2) we need to add the sysroot for macOS
The old implementation of repeated_read_cmd would attempt to run the
command multiple times to handle racyness of async output. Code
like this should not be written. Instead, use the libuv event
loop to read until the process has exited and the pipe has been closed.
This causes some previous discarded errors to be propagated. Fix these
as well.
This is a diabolical anti-pattern and is hiding errors which exist
currently in unittests. Also we want to see _where_ in the process
stderr was emitted, stashing it away at the end erases important
context.
|vim.glob.to_lpeg()| uses a new LPeg-based implementation (Peglob) that
provides ~50% speedup for complex patterns. The implementation restores
support for nested braces and follows LSP 3.17 specification with
additional constraints for improved correctness and resistance to
backtracking edge cases.
- Fixed syntax highlighting for ksh93 namespace variables starting
with '${.'
- Added support for the alarm, eloop, fds, mkservice, pids, poll and
sha2sum builtins (which are indeed ksh93 builtins, albeit whether or
not they are available depends on the ksh release and the compiled
SHOPT options).
- Added support for the many Unix commands provided by ksh93's libcmd
as builtin commands (since these are general commands, scripts for
other shells like bash will also highlight these).
- The dumps for the sh_0{2,5,6,8,9}.sh were recreated due to this
change affecting commands those scripts call (e.g. 'wc').
- Enabled ${parameter/pattern/string} and friends for ksh syntax.
- Enabled case modification for ksh. See also:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/commit/c1762e03
- Enabled ;;& support for ksh. See also:
https://github.com/ksh93/ksh/commit/fc89d20a
- Added many special ksh variables using 93u+m's data/variables.c
as a reference.
If vim can't figure out which ksh release is in play using e.g.
the hashbang path, in such a case a generic default that enables
everything and the kitchen sink will be used. Otherwise, features will
be disabled if it's absolutely known a certain feature will not be
present. Examples:
- ERRNO is ksh88 specific, so that is locked to ksh88.
- Only 93u+m (assumed for generic) has SRANDOM, and only 93u+m
and 93v- have case modification support.
- 93u+ and 93v- have VPATH and CSWIDTH variables (the latter
is vestigal, but still present in the hardcoded variable table).
- 93v- and ksh2020 have (buggy and near unusable) implementations
of compgen and complete.
- Only mksh provides function substitutions, i.e. ${|command;}.
This took the better part of my day to implement. It seems to work well
enough though. (Also had to regenerate the dumps again while testing
it, as now there are dup scripts with mere hashbang differences, used
solely for testing syntax highlighting differences.)

Problem: A "search_cmd" message alters the message state (since 8e8f4523),
unnecessarily affecting logic for messages that follow.
Solution: Reset the appropriate variables after a "search_cmd" message.
Don't show "search_cmd" message with zero 'cmdheight'.
Problem:
- Lesson 7.3 (Cmdline Completion) teaches an important way to discover
Nvim features. I think users should learn it before they start
configuring Nvim
- Nvim can be configured in Lua as well, but lesson 7.2 (Configuring
Nvim) only mentions init.vim. And I think Nvim is promoting Lua more
Solution:
- Move lesson 7.2 to be after lesson 7.3
- Lesson 7.2 should teach about init.lua

The root_markers field can now contain a table of tables (as of
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/33485) and :checkhealth will show
an error in that case since Lua cannot concatenate a table of tables.
Ensure that tables contain strings before concatenating and if not, fall
back to using vim.inspect().
Problem: The Github repo link in the Contribution section has been
archived for 5 years. So people who want to contribute to the
tutor plugin should just send PR to Vim repo, similar to most
other Vim features, so there is no need for a Contribution
section in the plugin doc.
Solution: Replace it with an Original Author note at the beginning of
the help document.

Problem:
No way for a user to limit 'exrc' search in parent directories (compare
editorconfig.root).
Solution:
A configuration file can unset 'exrc', disabling the search for its
parent directories.
fix: set manwidth to not exceed the window width
If we set the MANWIDTH variable to a value wider than the window, the
contents wrap and formatting breaks. A more sensible way to handle this
is to interpret MANWIDTH as a maximum width, but to set the width to the
window size if smaller.
See also: #9023, #10748.
Problem:
The exrc file in the current directory is executed twice, here and in
`do_exrc_initalization()`.
Solution:
Start search from parent directory. Let core handle exrc in current
directory.
Problem: When items are combined with user-defined highlight attributes
(e.g., strikethrough), trunc inherits these attributes, making
the text difficult to read.
Solution: trunc now uses the original Pmenu and PmenuSel highlight
attributes (glepnir)

* Don't specify wayclip mimetype
Problem: Since wayclip 0.2, wayclip assumes UTF-8
(text/plain;charset=utf-8) in absence of an explicit mimetype.
Since Neovim sets the mimetype to "text/plain" without
specifying UTF-8, you will also have to use `-t text/plain`
when using waypaste or wayclip outside of Neovim.
Solution: Don't specify mimetype when using wayclip, thereby using the
default "text/plain:charset=utf-8".
* Add primary clipboard support to wayclip
wayclip have had support for primary clipboard for some time now.

- Normalise interface heredoc highlighting with that used for
:let-heredocs.
- Remove interface feature testing. The Lua and Python interface
command scripts are now highlighted by default. Loading all syntax
files incurs an undesirable load-time burden so highlighting of the
less popular MzScheme, Perl, Ruby and Tcl interfaces is disabled by
default. g:vimsyn_embed can still be used to customise the supported
interfaces.
- Always highlight interface ex-commands as valid commands, even when
the corresponding command-script highlighting is disabled.
- Highlight simple command-script statements as well as heredocs.
- Remove error highlighting of heredoc and statement command-script
regions when an interface is disabled. These are now highlighted as
plain text.
- Allow indented heredoc end tokens when "trim" is specified.
- Match interface heredocs in :def functions.
- Fix runaway vimEmbedError regions. These regions have been removed.
- Use python2 syntax for :python, and :pythonx when 'pyxversion' is
appropriately set.

feat(logs): show full path of short_src in lsp logs
Problem:
- Cannot gf to info.short_src printed in the logs since only the last 16
characters are printed
Solution:
- Print full info.short_src and remove ...
This check was always broken. it will "detect" a file as
other-than-UTF-8 if the first line of a help file only is ASCII.
This only works by accident, as all our help files are UTF-8 (or
ASCII-only, which is fully compatible), but are all ASCII-only
on the first line of every help file which means that all helpfiles
gets detected as not-UTF8 which makes the "consistency" test pass
by accident even though the actual consistency is that every single
file is UTF-8 compatible. This means that the
"!_TAG_FILE_ENCODING\tutf-8\t" meta-tag already did not get emitted
but YAGNI in either case as no encoding tag just means that 'encoding'
is used which in neovim always is UTF-8 anyway.
An alternative approach would be to integrate the real encoding
detection already present in the codebase (an editor which edits text of
various encodings) which checks the entire file instead of a weird
first-line-only-hack, but as it happens to be 2025 the resolution of
encoding trouble is to just use UTF-8 everywhere. And if you use something
else you have to keep track yourself anyway it is not like we can detect
if one helpfile of your plugin is latin-1 and another is latin-2 or
whatever. Also, Nvim will detect the encoding of the file when you open
the file as a :help buffer anyway.
Problem: <Tab> is not translated on the cmdline, and exposes a wrong
assumption in search messages that may contain multiple chunks.
Solution: Translate unprintable characters in the cmdline content.
Extract the 'search_count' from the last chunk and route
'search_cmd' to cmdline to handle multiple chunks.
Problem: The 'grepformat' option is global option, but it would be
useful to have it buffer-local, similar to 'errorformat' and
other quickfix related options (Dani Dickstein)
Solution: Add the necessary code to support global-local 'grepformat',
allowing different buffers to parse different grep output
formats (glepnir)

Problem: search_stat not reset when pattern differs in case
(tahzibijafar)
Solution: use STRNCMP instead of MB_STRNICMP macro
There was a long standing todo comment, that using MB_STRNICMP is wrong.
So let's change it to STRNCMP() instead. Even if it not handle
multi-byte characters correctly, then Vim will rather recompute the
search stat, instead of re-using the old (and possibly wrong) value.
