The vim_input function accepts raw terminal input and so is better to emulate real user, especially because it is not deferred as vim_feedkeys. Using this function required a number of changes: - expect() was refactored to use curbuf_contents() - The vim_eval function in request() was moved to curbuf_contents(). For most cases this is enough(we only care for synchronizing api calls with user input when verifying buffer contents). - <C-@>(NUL) is preprocessed before being passed to replace_termcodes. - Legacy test 4 had a bug that only became visible when using vim_input, it is fixed now. - An extra blank line deletion was required for test 101 The last two items show that vim_feedkeys because it is not 100% equivalent to receiving terminal input.

Neovim is a project that seeks to aggressively refactor Vim in order to:
- Simplify maintenance and encourage contributions
- Split the work between multiple developers
- Enable the implementation of new/modern user interfaces without any modifications to the core source
- Improve extensibility with a new plugin architecture
For lots more details, see the wiki!
What's been done so far
- Job control (work with processes asynchronously)
- msgpack remote API
- Performance, reliability, and portability improvements
- See the progress page for a comprehensive list.
What's being worked on now
- Port all IO to libuv
- Lots of refactoring
- A VimL => Lua transpiler
How do I get it?
There is a formula for OSX/homebrew, a PKGBUILD for Arch Linux, RPM, deb, and more. See the wiki!
