**Problem:** No easy way to stack highlight groups #35806.
**Solution:** Add a way to specify a new statusline chunk with a
highlight group that inherits from previous highlight attributes.
Also applies to tabline, etc.
Problem:
`vim.diagnostic.fromqflist` ignores lines that are `item.valid == 0` (see
`getqflist`). Many qflists have messages that span multiple lines, which look
like this:
collection/src/Modelling/CdOd/Central.hs|496 col 80| error: [GHC-83865]
|| • Couldn't match expected type: InstanceWithForm
|| (FilePath
|| -> SelectValidCdInstWithForm
...
calling `vim.diagnostic.fromqflist(vim.fn.getqflist)` gets a diagnostic message
like this:
error: [GHC-83865]
only the first line is kept, but often, the remaing lines are useful as well.
Solution:
Introduce `merge_lines` option, which "squashes" lines from invalid qflist items
into the error message of the previous valid item, so that we get this
diagnostic message instead:
error: [GHC-83865]
• Couldn't match expected type: InstanceWithForm
(FilePath
-> SelectValidCdInstWithForm
Problem:
- `:restart <cmd>` prepends `-c <cmd>` before the original `-c` args (if
any). So the original `-c` args may "override" it, which is
surprising.
- Confusing logic: `v:argv` is partially prepared in `ex_docmd.c`, and
then later `ui.c` skips other parts of it.
Current behavior is nonsense, for example this sequence:
:restart echo "Hello"
:restart +qall echo "Hello" | echo "World"
results in this v:argv:
[
'nvim'
'-c'
'echo "Hello" | echo "World"'
'--embed'
'-c'
'echo "Hello"'
...
]
Whereas after this commit, v:argv is:
[
'nvim'
'--embed'
...
'-c'
'echo "Hello" | echo "World"'
]
Solution:
- Append `-c <cmd>` at the _end_ of `v:argv`, not the start.
- Use a dummy placeholder `+:::` to mark where the "restart command"
appears in `v:argv`.
- Do all `v:argv` preparation in `ex_docmd.c`. This simplifies `ui.c`.
- Drop `-- [files…]` from `v:argv` since it is probably more annoying
than useful. (Users can use sessions to restore files on restart.)
Problem:
- ~200 line function of hard-to-maintain C code.
- Local Addition section looks messy because of the varying description
formats.
Solution:
- Move code to Lua.
- Have a best-effort approach where short descriptions are right
aligned, giving a cleaner look. Long descriptions are untouched.
Problem: Terminal doesn't detect if the PTY process is suspended or
offer a convenient way for the user to resume the process.
Solution: Detect suspended PTY process on SIGCHLD and show virtual text
"[Process suspended]" at the bottom-left. Resume the process
when the user presses a key.
Problem:
Iter:peek() only works if the iterator is a |list-iterator| (internally, an `ArrayIter`).
However, it is possible to implement :peek() support for any iterator.
Solution:
- add `_peeked` buffer for lookahead without actually consuming values
- `peek()` now works for function, pairs(), and array iterators
- `skip(predicate)` stops at the first non matching element without consuming it
- keep existing optimized behavior for `ArrayIter` to maintain backward compatibility
- use `pack`/`unpack` to support iterators that return multiple values
fix(treesitter): more distinctive highlight for EditQuery captures
Problem: EditQuery shows captures in the source buffer using the Title
highlight group, which could be too similar to Normal.
Solution: Use a virtual text diagnostic highlight group: they are
displayed in a similar manner to the query captures so we can assume
that the color scheme should have appropriate styling applied to make
them visible.
Problem:
`vim.json.decode()` could not parse JSONC (JSON with Comments)
extension, which is commonly used in configuration files.
Solution:
Introduce an `skip_comments` option, which is disabled by default. When
enabled, allows JavaScript-style comments within JSON data.
In particular, also mention the difference between the regex atom \k and
what Vim considers for a word character.

Problem:
Mappings with a control modifier follow the (tag) format of:
{key_before}_CTRL-{key}_{key_after}
Where `{key_before}` and `{key_after}` can be any other key combination.
However, for the Nvim default mappings `[_CTRL-Q`, `]_CTRL-Q`,
`[_CTRL-L`, `]_CTRL-L`, `[_CTRL-T` and `]_CTRL-T`, the underscore
between the bracket and CTRL was absent. This lead to problems finding
the relevant docs with `:help [_CTRL-Q` and made parsing the {subject}
argument for `:help` harder.
Solution:
Use the right tag format.
Problem: Terminal doesn't handle ED 3 (clear scrollback) properly.
Solution: Add vterm callback for sb_clear().
Also fix another problem that scrollback lines may be duplicated when
pushing to scrollback immediately after reducing window height, as can
be seen in the changes to test/functional/terminal/window_spec.lua.

Problem: Code lenses currently display as virtual text on the same line
and after the relevant item. While the spec does not say how lenses
should be rendered, above the line is most typical. For longer lines,
lenses rendered as virtual text can run off the side of the screen.
Solution: Display lenses as virtual lines above the text.

Problem: The following strchar functions have incorrect types:
strcharlen() - Currently any. Always returns an integer, including on
error
strcharpart() - The skipcc annotation does not specify that 0 and 1 are
valid. These inputs are required for vimscript usage. The current
return type is any, even though the function returns an empty string
on error
strchars() - The skipcc annotation does not specify that 0 and 1 are
valid
Solution: Update the problem types.
Problem: In eval.lua, setcharsearch() has an incorrect param type,
causing Lua_Ls to display an error when a valid table is passed.
While getcharsearch correctly states that it returns a table, the type
is non-specific about the contents.
Solution: Update eval.lua with the correct types.
The auto-refresh has a bit of a delay so it can happen that when a user
runs `codelens.run` it operates on an outdated state and either
does nothing, or fails.
This changes the logic for `.run` to always fetch the current lenses
before (optional) prompt and execution.
See discussion in https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/37689#discussion_r2764235931
This could potentially be optimized to first check if there's local
state with a version that matches the current buf-version, but in my
testing re-fetching them always was quickly enough that `run` still
feels instant and doing it this way simplifies the logic.
Side effect of the change is that `.run` also works if codelens aren't
enabled - for power users who know what the codelens would show that can
be useful.
Problem: Unlike `nvim_keymap_set`, `vim.keymap.set` uses the non-negated
`remap` instead of `:set`'s `noremap`, but the documentation for this
got lost sometime before Nvim 0.10.
Solution: Restore the lost documentation and make it more explicit.
Problem:
Users may be unaware that setting `g:clipboard` after providers are
initialized has no effect, and that `has('clipboard')` initializes
providers, as in #13062.
Solution:
Note the restriction and link to workarounds in FAQ for discoverability.
From the LSP Spec:
> There are two uses cases where it can be beneficial to only compute
> semantic tokens for a visible range:
>
> - for faster rendering of the tokens in the user interface when a user
> opens a file. In this use case, servers should also implement the
> textDocument/semanticTokens/full request as well to allow for flicker
> free scrolling and semantic coloring of a minimap.
> - if computing semantic tokens for a full document is too expensive,
> servers can only provide a range call. In this case, the client might
> not render a minimap correctly or might even decide to not show any
> semantic tokens at all.
This commit unifies the usage of range and full/delta requests as
recommended by the LSP spec and aligns neovim with the way other LSP
clients use these request types for semantic tokens.
When a server supports range requests, neovim will simultaneously send a
range request and a full/delta request when first opening a file, and
will continue to issue range requests until a full response is
processed. At that point, range requests cease and full (or delta)
requests are used going forward. The range request should allow servers
to return a result faster for quicker highlighting of the file while it
works on the potentially more expensive full result. If a server decides
the full result is too expensive, it can just error out that request,
and neovim will continue to use range requests.
This commit also fixes and cleans up some other things:
- gen_lsp: registrationMethod or registrationOptions imply dynamic
registration support
- move autocmd creation/deletion to on_attach/on_detach
- debounce requests due to server refresh notifications
- fix off by one issue in tokens_to_ranges() iteration
Problem:
Temporary files from /tmp/ and /private/ paths clutter :oldfiles list.
Additionally, the documented Windows default (rA:,rB:) was never applied
due to a missing platform condition.
Solution:
Drop platform-specific shada differences and default to excluding
/tmp/ and /private/ paths.
Problem:
Using vim.defer_fn() just before Nvim exit leaks luv handles.
Solution:
Make vim.schedule() return an error message if scheduling failed.
Make vim.defer_fn() close timer if vim.schedule() failed.
