Netrw problem with Vexplore (actually a :wincmd range checking problem) #314

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run :Vexplore a:dir

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It should open "explorer" in seperate split

Instead it throws exception:
Error detected while processing function netrw#Explore:
line   88:
E16: Invalid range: keepalt noswapfile lefta 52wincmd v

and then opens explorer in same split/window

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
7.4.567 on archlinux, version 7.4.560 is working fine.

This problem sounds like a vim problem, not a netrw problem.  In particular, 
its likely due to patch#565.  There's been a bit of discussion on vimdev about 
it, btw, under the topic ":wincmd".

I think, this should be fixed by patch 7.4.572. Please verify.

Unfortunately the following still produces an error message about invalid range:

vim -u NONE
:52wincmd v

I forgot to skip over white space.  7.4.580 will fix it.

Looks like patches 577 and 580 fixed this problem.
