[feature request] add list of regex buffer filters to exclude fading on

[sdothum]

Some plugins open multiple windows eg yankring. Would be nice to be able to provide a regex expression to be able to exclude fading of associated buffer windows when any are in focus, and faded when not.

Nice idea -- would something like VimadeIgnore [expr] or VimadeExclude [expr] suit your needs? -- The list itself I think will be exposed through the config.

Not quite sure what [expr] will be yet -- seems like it to start it should at least support matching on filetype, buffer/file name.

Hadn't thought about filetype but I could see some having a use for that. As for var naming, perhaps g:VimadeGroupBuf and g:VimadeGroupFt or g:VimadeGroup (if you don't need to distinguish between filetype and buffer name -- filetypes would most likely be defined as exact matches, names as regex). Tuples would be another alternative if you do need to make the distinction.

I don't have any particular preference for var naming or how you define the specification -- whatever is easiest for you to implement and is consistent with your coding. But simple regex grouping on ft and buffer/filename would be awesome.

Starting to work on this -- should have it out there some time this week

Sorry for the delay -- I think this should do what you are looking for. I steered away from the config to try and keep the logic moreso just vimscript in a vimrc.

Added the following commands: VimadeBufDisable - remove and ignore fading for the current buffer VimadeBufEnable - re-enable fading for current buffer VimadeWinDisable - remove and ignore fading for the current window VimadeWinEnable - re-enable fading for current window

usage examples: au! BufWinEnter Dockerfile VimadeBufDisable - Disables fading for buffers loaded that are named Dockerfile

au! FileType nerdtree VimadeBufDisable - Disables fading for buffers with the nerdtree filetype>

Thank you! This works for the Yankring plugin that caught my attention with it's multiple windows.

Great work.

Tried using the au! FileType nerdtree VimadeBufDisable, and got this ton of errors when opening Nerdtree:
