VimPlug: Unknown function: term_start

[TruncatedDinoSour]

Describe the bug I recently needed markdown preview, I noticed it threw an error: No matching autocommands: User NvimMkdpRpcExit So I thought "Maybe I messed something up", I removed the plugin entirely from my pluggins folder and reinstalled with :PlugInstall, all went well until after installation I got a red error with: x Post-update hook for markdown-preview.nvim ... Vim(call):E117: Unknown function: term_start How do I solve this?

It might be related that I compiled ViM with USE flag -term but it worked before so idk...

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open vim
2. Install plugin
3. See error

Expected behavior For it to work

Desktop (please complete the following information):

• OS: Gentoo linux

Log:

:MarkdownPreview

Seems like you disable terminal features. use Plug 'iamcco/markdown-preview.nvim', { 'do': 'cd app && yarn install' } instaled.

ah yes, I have, USE=-terminal for vim, let me just recompile it then as yarn is much more painful to compile than vim :)

[iamcco]

Or you can goto the markdown-preview.nvim/app directory and run ./install.sh

• [x] Installation worked after enabling terminal (terminal support) USE flag in vim
• [x] It works

Thank you

[TruncatedDinoSour]

Closing issue, works :)
