I am using the latest Vinfo from git with neovim on Arch linux. But when I want to display a info file (:Vinfo whatever) the tags are not converted correctly:

No link targets are created.
The next and previous links at the top of each chapter are not marked as links.
The tags file is empty. Does this also happen for anyone else?

alx741 commented 8 years ago

Haven't used Vinfo myself for a while, and I notice the latest Archlinux Neovim update changed (and broke) some things on my setup. Will take a look on that, thanks!

alx741 commented 8 years ago

Apparently something changed with the helptags function. The same error appears in vim-devicons here, and was fixed by removing unicode characters

ryanwells-rwc commented 7 years ago

There are also no tags with Vim and GVim 8.0.987 on Arch Linux. Perhaps this is unrelated, but I'm also getting E149: "Sorry, no help for Vinfo."

alx741 commented 7 years ago

@ryanwells-rwc apparently a lot of braking changes were introduced in the latest commits, I just revert them and committed a bug fix for the tags generation. Please try it out and let me know how it went.

About the E149 error, does it come up when you :h vinfo ? How are you installing it?

ryanwells-rwc commented 7 years ago

@alx741 Awesome! The tags are working now. Yes the E149 comes up when executing :h vinfo. I've installed it via Pathogen.

alx741 commented 7 years ago

@ryanwells-rwc weird, but it seems like a Pathogen issue. I think you have to run :Helptags, check out this question: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6970334/vim-pathogen-not-loading-help-docs.

Seems this particular issue is now solved, so I'm closing it. If any other problem emerges either related to the tags or the help, please open a new issue.
