bdelete/bwipeout in BufNewFile/BufReadPost autocmd breaks `vim -[poO]`

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

Given the following rc file:

% cat test_vimrc.vim 
fun! BufReadPost()
  let bufname=bufname('%')
  echomsg bufname
  if bufname[-1:] == ':'
    echomsg "EDIT"
    let bufnr = bufnr('%')
    exec 'edit' bufname[0:-2]
    exec 'bwipeout' bufnr
  endif
endfun
autocmd BufNewFile,BufReadPost * call BufReadPost()

This command fails:

    % vim -N -u test_vimrc.vim -p foo: bar baz -c '3tabclose | qa'
    3 files to edit
    "foo" [New File]
    Error detected while processing command line:
    E784: Cannot close last tab page
    Press ENTER or type command to continue

Using `bufhidden=wipe` instead of `bwipeout` works for `vim -p`, but not for
`-o`.

I could imagine that the pointer to the current buffer needs special
handling/restoring in this case, after the BufNewFile/BufReadPost autocommand 
has
been called.

The use case is handling `file:line` patterns, in the file_line plugin
(https://github.com/bogado/file-line).
See https://github.com/bogado/file-line/pull/37 for a pull request where this
is discussed.

I am not sure, it is a good idea, to do this during the startup of Vim. Can't 
this be done after Vim has fully initialized using the VimEnter autocommand?

As can be seen in the PR, it is using VimEnter currently, but only "to make it 
work with -p".

This causes several other issues (can be seen in the plugins issue tracker) 
though, both when using `bufdo` or `argdo` to handle all buffers/arguments.
