Vertical Edit

[sencer]

neither g:UltiSnips.EditSplit nor g:UltiSnipsEditSplit works for vertical editing, it always splits "normally"

Close if its fixed by https://github.com/MarcWeber/ultisnips/commit/ac13521a272e8eb2971326f2aa7df5414fc79470

Wow, thanks for prompt response. It didn't fix though. After asking to select a snippet file it says:

Error detected while processing function UltiSnips#ChooseSnippetFileToEditDefaultImplementation:
line   18:
E486: Pattern not found: home

You can grep the source to find the function definition of UltiSnips#ChooseSnippetFileToEditDefaultImplementation, line 10:

let filetypes = map(copy(get(ft_filter, 'filetypes', ['FILETYPE'])), 'substitute(v:val, "FILETYPE", &filetype,"g")')

The only pattern matching ahppens in substitute !? But that's not known to throw errors if there is a no match to my knowledge.

You can try replacing "g" by "ge" and see whether this works?

Additionally verify that you have a standard setup, eg nocompatible set and such.

Eg compare with such a setup (.vimrc):

set nocompatible
filetype indent plugin on | syn on

fun SetupVAM()
  let vam_install_path = expand('$HOME') . '/.vim/vim-addons'
  exec 'set runtimepath+='.vam_install_path.'/vim-addon-manager'

  if !filereadable(vam_install_path.'/vim-addon-manager/.git/config') && 1 == confirm("git clone VAM into ".vam_install_path."?","&Y\n&N")
    exec '!p='.shellescape(vam_install_path).'; mkdir -p "$p" && cd "$p" && git clone --depth 1 git://github.com/MarcWeber/vim-addon-manager.git'
    exec 'helptags '.fnameescape(vam_install_path.'/vim-addon-manager/doc')
  endif

  call vam#ActivateAddons(['github:MarcWeber/ultisnips], {'auto_install' : 0})
endf
call SetupVAM()

" your ultisnips setup here

This checks out VAM and VAM-kr by git, then checks out ultisnips its dependencies.

It will populate ~/.vim/vim-addons/ Thus fastest could be to create a new user account and try it there?

I don't know what happened, but it is working this morning w/o any change :/
