INGO-LIBRARY

by Ingo Karkat

DESCRIPTION

This library contains common autoload functions that are used by almost all of my plugins (http://www.vim.org/account/profile.php?user_id=9713). Instead of duplicating the functionality, or installing potentially conflicting versions with each plugin, this one core dependency fosters a lean Vim runtime and easier plugin updates.

Separating common functions is explicitly recommended by Vim; see write-library-script. The autoload mechanism was created to make this really easy and efficient. Only those scripts that contain functions that are actually used are loaded, the rest is ignored; it just "wastes" the space on disk. (Not using autoload functions, and duplicating utility functions in the plugin script itself, now that would be truly bad.)

Still, if you only use one or few of my plugins, yes, this might look wasteful. However, I have published an awful lot of plugins (most of which now use ingo-library), and intend to continue to do so. Considering that, the decision to extract the common functionality (which caused a lot of effort for me) benefits both users (no duplication, no incompatibilities, faster updates) and me (less overall effort in maintaining, more time for features). Please keep that in mind before complaining about this dependency.

Furthermore, several other authors have been following the same approach:

RELATED WORKS

Other authors have published separate support libraries, too:

• genutils (vimscript #197) by Hari Krishna Dara
• lh-vim-lib (vimscript #214) by Luc Hermitte
• cecutil (vimscript #1066) by DrChip
• tlib (vimscript #1863) by Thomas Link
• TOVL (vimscript #1963) by Marc Weber
• l9 (vimscript #3252) by Takeshi Nishida
• anwolib (vimscript #3800) by Andy Wokula
• vim-misc (vimscript #4597) by Peter Odding
• maktaba (https://github.com/google/maktaba) by Google
• vital (https://github.com/vim-jp/vital.vim) by the Japanese Vim user group
• underscore.vim (vimscript #5149) by haya14busa provides functional programming functions and depends on the (rather complex) vital library

There have been initiatives to gather and consolidate useful functions into a "standard Vim library", but these efforts have mostly fizzled out.

USAGE

This library is mainly intended to be used by my own plugins. However, I try
to maintain backwards compatibility as much as possible. Feel free to use the
library for your own plugins and customizations, too. I'd also like to hear
from you if you have additions or comments.

EXCEPTION HANDLING

For exceptional conditions (e.g. cannot locate window that should be there)
and programming errors (e.g. passing a wrong variable type to a library
function), error strings are |:throw|n. These are prefixed with (something
resembling) the short function name, so that it's possible to :catch these
and e.g. convert them into a proper error (e.g. via
ingo#err#SetCustomException()).

CONFIGURATION

The filespec to the external "date" command can be set via:

let g:IngoLibrary_DateCommand = 'date'

The preferred date format used by ingo#date#format#Preferred() can be set to a strftime() format via:

let g:IngoLibrary_PreferredDateFormat = '%x'

The size of the file cache (in bytes) used by ingo#file#GetLines() can be set via:

let g:IngoLibrary_FileCacheMaxSize = 1048576

The string used as a replacement for truncated text can be set via:

let g:IngoLibrary_TruncateEllipsis = "\u2026"

The check for special windows in ingo#window#special#IsSpecialWindow() can be customized via a List of Expressions or Funcrefs that are passed the window number, and which should return a boolean flag. If any predicate is true, the window is deemed special.

let g:IngoLibrary_SpecialWindowPredicates =
\   ['bufname(winbufnr(v:val)) =~# "^\\[\\%(Scratch\\|clipboard\\)\\]$"']

ingo#plugin#marks#Reserve() by default uses any unused mark. You can instead assign a fixed set of marks that will be available for plugins via:

let g:IngoLibrary_Marks = 'abcABC'

Some special filenames are caught by BufNewFile|,|BufRead autocmds and translated into existing files. ingo#cmdargs#glob#Resolve() can be taught those patterns by configuring a List of Funcrefs or expressions in g:IngoLibrary_SpecialFilePredicates that take a single filespec argument / v:val and return whether this is an existing file. This will then correct the statistics information returned by the function. By default, includes any filespec that starts with a "protocol:/" (e.g. scp:// for netrw), and also file:lnum[:column] special filenames if https://github.com/bogado/file-line is installed.

The ingo#text#InsertHere() function is often used to insert text at the cursor position by plugins that don't want to offer separate insert / append mappings (comparable to p|/|P pasting). The function tries to find a meaningful insertion point. Its strategy can be tweaked via the following values:

• insert1: at the beginning of the line if the cursor is in column 1, else appending after the character the cursor is on.
• append$: appending after the character if the cursor is at the end of the line (with 'virtualedit' having "onemore": one beyond the end, with "all": always insert before the cursor), else inserting before the character the cursor is on.
• insert: always inserting before the character the cursor is on
• append: always appending after the character the cursor is on

If you use some operator-pending mappings as hooks into default motions (e.g. : or /) that still maintain the original functionality, ingo#query#get#Motion() can be instructed to ignore those mappings and instead treat them as the built-in motions (i.e. still query the command-line or search pattern). Define those keys you want ignored as keys in a Dict (values don't matter):

let g:IngoLibrary_QueryMotionIgnoredMotions = {':': 1, '/': 1, '?': 1}

If you have custom operator-pending mappings that do some tricks like obtaining additional characters until they're done and moving the cursor, define those keys as keys, and an appendage pattern as value (or the empty String if there're no additional keys). The appendage patterns will capture additional keys until either the pattern does not match any longer (the motion then is deemed invalid and aborts), or until the first capture group is non-empty (the motion then is deemed complete).

let g:IngoLibrary_QueryMotionCustomMotions = {'key': 'patter\(n\)'}

Motions can be forced to be character- / line- / blockwise (forced-motion). If you have mapped alternatives for v / V / CTRL-V, define them as keys in:

let g:IngoLibrary_QueryMotionCustomMotionModifiers = {"\<C-q>": 1}

If you've remapped the c_CTRL-K trigger key for digraphs, you can adapt the digraph detection by ingo#query#get#CharOrDigraph() and ingo#query#get#[Valid]Char() to the changed mapping via:

let g:IngoLibrary_DigraphTriggerKey = "\<C-k>"

INSTALLATION

The code is hosted in a Git repo at https://github.com/inkarkat/vim-ingo-library You can use your favorite plugin manager, or "git clone" into a directory used for Vim packages. Releases are on the "stable" branch, the latest unstable development snapshot on "master".

This script is also packaged as a vimball. If you have the "gunzip" decompressor in your PATH, simply edit the *.vmb.gz package in Vim; otherwise, decompress the archive first, e.g. using WinZip. Inside Vim, install by sourcing the vimball or via the :UseVimball command.

vim ingo-library*.vmb.gz
:so %

To uninstall, use the :RmVimball command.

DEPENDENCIES

• Requires Vim 7.0 or higher.

• Add ingo#regexp#build#UnderCursor().
• Add ingo#escape#command#mapeval().
• Add ingo#range#IsEntireBuffer().
• Add ingo/compat/commands.vim module.
• Add ingo#register#All() and ingo#register#Writable() (so that this information doesn't have to be duplicated any longer).
• FIX: ingo#query#get#WritableRegister() doesn't consider all writable registers (-_* are writable, too).
• Add ingo/register/accumulate.vim module.
• Add ingo/tabpage.vim module.
• Add ingo#list#NonEmpty() and ingo#list#JoinNonEmpty().
• Factor out ingo#filetype#GetPrimary() from ingo#filetype#IsPrimary().
• Add ingo#fs#path#split#ChangeBasePath().
• ENH: ingo#funcref#ToString() returns non-Funcref argument as is (instead of empty String). This allows to transparently handle function names (as String), too.
• ingo#event#Trigger(): Temporarily disable modeline processing in compatibility implementation.
• Add ingo#event#TriggerEverywhere() and ingo#event#TriggerEverywhereCustom() compatibility wrappers for :doautoall <nomodeline>.

1.032 20-Sep-2017

• ingo#query#get#{Register,Mark}(): Avoid throwing E523 on invalid user input when executed e.g. from within a :map-expr.
• Add ingo/subst/replacement.vim module with functions originally in PatternsOnText.vim (vimscript #4602).
• Add ingo/lines/empty.vim module.
• CHG: Rename ingo#str#split#First() to ingo#str#split#MatchFirst() and add ingo#str#split#StrFirst() variant that uses a fixed string, not a pattern.

• Add ingo#list#IsEmpty().
• Add ingo/collection/find.vim module.
• Add ingo/window.vim and ingo/window/adjacent modules.

• CHG: Rename ingo#selection#position#Get() to ingo#selection#area#Get(). Extend the function's API with options.
• Add ingo#text#GetFromArea().
• CHG: Rename ingo#text#replace#Area() to ingo#text#replace#Between() and add ingo#text#replace#Area() that actually takes a (single) a:area argument.
• Add ingo/area.vim module.
• Add ingo#query#fromlist#QueryAsText() variant of ingo#query#fromlist#Query().
• ENH: ingo#buffer#scratch#Create(): Allow to set the scratch buffer contents directly by passing a List as a:scratchCommand.
• Extract generic ingo#buffer#generate#Create() from ingo/buffer/scratch.vim.
• Add ingo#plugin#cmdcomplete#MakeListExprCompleteFunc() variant of ingo#plugin#cmdcomplete#MakeFixedListCompleteFunc().
• Add ingo/ftplugin/converter/external.vim module.

1.031 27-Jun-2017

• FIX: Potentially invalid indexing of l:otherResult[l:i] in s:GetUnjoinedResult(). Use get() for inner List access, too.
• Add special ingo#compat#synstack to work around missing patch 7.2.014: synstack() doesn't work in an empty line.
• BUG: ingo#comments#SplitIndentAndText() and ingo#comments#RemoveCommentPrefix() fail with nestable comment prefixes with "E688: More targets than List items".

1.030 26-May-2017

• Add escaping of additional values to ingo#option#Join() and split into ingo#option#Append() and ingo#option#Prepend().
• Offer simpler ingo#option#JoinEscaped() and ingo#option#JoinUnescaped() for actual joining of values split via ingo#option#Split() / ingo#option#SplitAndUnescape().
• Add ingo#str#EndsWith() variant of ingo#fs#path#split#Contains().
• Add ingo#regexp#comments#GetFlexibleWhitespaceAndCommentPrefixPattern().
• Add ingo/hlgroup.vim module.
• Add ingo#cursor#StartInsert() and ingo#cursor#StartAppend().
• Add ingo/compat/command.vim module.
• Add ingo#plugin#setting#Default().
• BUG: ingo#mbyte#virtcol#GetVirtColOfCurrentCharacter() yields wrong values with single-width multibyte characters, and at the beginning of the line (column 1). Need to start with offset 1 (not 0), and account for that (subtract 1) in the final return. Need to check that the virtcol argument will be larger than 0.
• Add ingo#format#Dict() variant of ingo#format#Format() that only handles identifier placeholders and a Dict containing them.
• ENH: ingo#format#Format(): Also handle a:fmt without any "%" items without error.
• Add ingo#compat#DictKey(), as Vim 7.4.1707 now allows using an empty dictionary key.
• Add ingo#os#IsWindowsShell().
• Generalize functions into ingo/nary.vim and delegate ingo#binary#...() functions to those. Add ingo/nary.vim module.
• ENH: ingo#regexp#collection#LiteralToRegexp(): Support inverted collection via optional a:isInvert flag.
• Add ingo#strdisplaywidth#CutLeft() variant of ingo#strdisplaywidth#strleft() that returns both parts. Same for ingo#strdisplaywidth#strright().
• CHG: Rename ill-named ingo#strdisplaywidth#pad#Middle() to ingo#strdisplaywidth#pad#Center().
• Add "real" ingo#strdisplaywidth#pad#Middle() that inserts the padding in the middle of the string / between the two passed string parts.
• Add ingo#fs#path#split#PathAndName().
• Add ingo#text#ReplaceChar(), a combination of ingo#text#GetChar(), ingo#text#Remove(), and ingo#text#Insert().
• Add ingo#err#Command() for an alternative way of passing back [error] commands to be executed.
• ingo#syntaxitem#IsOnSyntax(): Factor out synstack() emulation into ingo#compat#synstack() and unify similar function variants.
• ENH: ingo#syntaxitem#IsOnSyntax(): Allow optional a:stopItemPattern to avoid considering syntax items at the bottom of the stack.
• Add ingo#compat#synstack().
• Add ingo/dict/count.vim module.
• Add ingo/digest.vim module.
• Add ingo#buffer#VisibleList().

1.029 24-Jan-2017

• CHG: ingo#comments#RemoveCommentPrefix() isn't useful as it omits any indent before the comment prefix. Change its implementation to just erase the prefix itself.
• Add ingo#comments#SplitIndentAndText() to provide what ingo#comments#RemoveCommentPrefix() was previously used to: The line broken into indent (before, after, and with the comment prefix), and the remaining text.
• Add ingo#indent#Split(), a simpler version of ingo#comments#SplitIndentAndText().
• Add ingo#fs#traversal#FindFirstContainedInUpDir().
• ingo#range#lines#Get(): A single (a:isGetAllRanges = 0) /.../ range already clobbers the last search pattern. Save and restore if necessary, and base didClobberSearchHistory on that check.
• ingo#range#lines#Get(): Drop the ^ anchor for the range check to also detect /.../ as the end of the range.
• Add ingo#cmdargs#register#ParsePrependedWritableRegister() alternative to ingo#cmdargs#register#ParseAppendedWritableRegister().
• BUG: Optional a:position argument to ingo#window#preview#SplitToPreview() is mistakenly truncated to [1:2]. Inline the l:cursor and l:bufnr variables; they are only used in the function call, anyway.
• Add ingo/str/find.vim module.
• Add ingo/str/fromrange.vim module.
• Add ingo#pos#SameLineIs[OnOr]After/Before() variants.
• Add ingo/regexp/build.vim module.
• Add ingo#err#SetAndBeep().
• FIX: ingo#query#get#Char() does not beep when validExpr is given and invalid character pressed.
• Add ingo#query#get#ValidChar() variant that loops until a valid character has been pressed.
• Add ingo/range/invert.vim module.
• Add ingo/line/replace.vim and ingo/lines/replace.vim modules.
• Extract ingo#range#merge#FromLnums() from ingo#range#merge#Merge().
• ingo#range#lines#Get(): If the range is a backwards-looking ?{pattern}?, we need to attempt the match on any line with :global/^/... Else, the border behavior is inconsistent: ranges that extend the passed range at the bottom are (partially) included, but ranges that extend at the front would not be.
• Add ingo/math.vim, ingo/binary.vim and ingo/list/split.vim modules.
• Add ingo#comments#SplitAll(), a more powerful variant of ingo#comments#SplitIndentAndText().
• Add ingo#compat#systemlist().
• Add ingo#escape#OnlyUnescaped().
• Add ingo#msg#ColoredMsg() and ingo#msg#ColoredStatusMsg().
• Add ingo/query/recall.vim module.
• Add ingo#register#GetAsList().
• FIX: ingo#format#Format(): An invalid %0$ references the last passed argument instead of yielding the empty string (as [argument-index$] is 1-based). Add bounds check to avoid that
• FIX: ingo#format#Format(): Also support escaping via "%%", as in printf().
• Add ingo#subst#FirstSubstitution(), ingo#subst#FirstPattern(), ingo#subst#FirstParameter().
• Add ingo#regexp#collection#Expr().
• BUG: ingo#regexp#magic#Normalize() also processes the contents of collections [...]; especially the escaping of "]" wreaks havoc on the pattern. Rename s:ConvertMagicness() into ingo#regexp#magic#ConvertMagicnessOfElement() and introduce intermediate s:ConvertMagicnessOfFragment() that first separates collections from other elements and only invokes the former on those other elements.
• Add ingo#collections#fromsplit#MapItemsAndSeparators().

1.028 30-Nov-2016

• ENH: Also support optional a:flagsMatchCount in ingo#cmdargs#pattern#ParseUnescaped() and ingo#cmdargs#pattern#ParseUnescapedWithLiteralWholeWord().
• Add missing ingo#cmdargs#pattern#ParseWithLiteralWholeWord() variant.
• ingo#codec#URL#Decode(): Also convert the character set to UTF-8 to properly handle non-ASCII characters. For example, %C3%9C should decode to "Ü", not to "ɜ".
• Add ingo#collections#SeparateItemsAndSeparators(), a variant of ingo#collections#SplitKeepSeparators().
• Add ingo/collections/fromsplit.vim module.
• Add ingo#list#Join().
• Add ingo/compat/window.vim module.
• Add ingo/fs/path/asfilename.vim module.
• Add ingo/list/find.vim module.
• Add ingo#option#Join().
• FIX: Correct delegation in ingo#buffer#temp#Execute(); wrong recursive call was used (after 1.027).
• ENH: Add optional a:isSilent argument to ingo#buffer#temp#Execute().
• ENH: Add optional a:reservedColumns also to ingo#avoidprompt#TruncateTo(), and pass this from ingo#avoidprompt#Truncate().
• ingo#avoidprompt#TruncateTo(): The strright() cannot precisely account for the rendering of tab widths. Check the result, and if necessary, remove further characters until we go below the limit.
• ENH: Add optional {context} to all ingo#err#... functions, in case other custom commands can be called between error setting and checking, to avoid clobbering of your error message.
• Add ingo/buffer/locate.vim module.
• Add ingo/window/locate.vim module.
• Add ingo/indent.vim module.
• Add ingo#compat#getcurpos().

1.027 30-Sep-2016

• Add ingo#buffer#temp#ExecuteWithText() and ingo#buffer#temp#CallWithText() variants that pre-initialize the buffer (a common use case).
• Add ingo#msg#MsgFromShellError().
• ENH: ingo#query#fromlist#Query(): Support headless (testing) mode via g:IngoLibrary_QueryChoices, like ingo#query#Confirm() already does.
• Expose ingo#query#fromlist#RenderList(). Expose ingo#query#StripAccellerator().
• ENH: ingo#cmdargs#pattern#Parse(): Add second optional a:flagsMatchCount argument, similar to what ingo#cmdargs#substitute#Parse() has in a:options.
• Add ingo#cmdargs#pattern#RawParse().
• Add ingo/regexp/collection.vim module.
• Add ingo#str#trd().

1.026 11-Aug-2016

• Add ingo#strdisplaywidth#pad#Middle().
• Add ingo/format/columns.vim module.
• ENH: ingo#avoidprompt#TruncateTo() and ingo#strdisplaywidth#TruncateTo() have a configurable ellipsis string g:IngoLibrary_TruncateEllipsis, now defaulting to a single-char UTF-8 variant if we're in such encoding. Thanks to Daniel Hahler for sending a patch! It also handles pathologically small lengths that only show / cut into the ellipsis.
• Add ingo#compat#strgetchar() and ingo#compat#strcharpart(), introduced in Vim 7.4.1730.
• Support ingo#compat#strchars() optional {skipcc} argument, introduced in Vim 7.4.755.

1.025 09-Aug-2016

• Add ingo#str#Contains().
• Add ingo#fs#path#split#Contains().
• ingo#subst#pairs#Substitute(): Canonicalize path separators in {replacement}, too. This is important to match further pairs, too, as the pattern is always in canonical form, so the replacement has to be, too.
• ingo#subst#pairs#Substitute() and ingo#subst#pairs#Split(): Only canonicalize path separators in {replacement} on demand, via additional a:isCanonicalizeReplacement argument. Some clients may not need iterative replacement, and treat the wildcard as a convenient regexp-shorthand, not overly filesystem-related.
• ENH: Allow passing to ingo#subst#pairs#Substitute() [wildcard, replacement] Lists instead of {wildcard}={replacement} Strings, too.
• Add ingo#collections#Partition().
• Add ingo#text#frompattern#GetAroundHere().
• Add ingo#cmdline#showmode#TemporaryNoShowMode() variant of ingo#cmdline#showmode#OneLineTemporaryNoShowMode().
• ENH: Enable customization of ingo#window#special#IsSpecialWindow() via g:IngoLibrary_SpecialWindowPredicates.
• Add ingo#query#Question().
• ENH: Make ingo#window#special#SaveSpecialWindowSize() return sum of special windows' widths and sum of special windows' heights.
• Add ingo/swap.vim module.
• Add ingo#collections#unique#Insert() and ingo#collections#unique#Add().
• BUG: Unescaped backslash resulted in unclosed [...] regexp collection causing ingo#escape#file#fnameunescape() to fail to escape on Unix.
• Add ingo#text#GetCharBefore() variant of ingo#text#GetChar().
• Add optional a:characterOffset to ingo#record#PositionAndLocation().
• Add ingo#regexp#MakeStartWordSearch() ingo#regexp#MakeEndWordSearch() variants of ingo#regexp#MakeWholeWordSearch().
• Add ingo#pos#IsInsideVisualSelection().
• Add ingo#escape#command#mapunescape().
• ENH: Add second optional flag a:isKeepDirectories to ingo#cmdargs#glob#Expand() / ingo#cmdargs#glob#ExpandSingle().
• Add ingo#range#borders#StartAndEndRange().
• Add ingo#msg#VerboseMsg().
• Add ingo#compat#sha256(), with a fallback to an external sha256sum command.
• Add ingo#collections#Reduce().
• Add ingo/actions/iterations.vim module.
• Add ingo/actions/special.vim module.
• Add ingo#collections#differences#ContainsLoosely() and ingo#collections#differences#ContainsStrictly().
• Add ingo#buffer#ExistOtherLoadedBuffers().
• FIX: Temporarily reset 'switchbuf' in ingo#buffer#visible#Execute() and ingo#buffer#temp#Execute(), to avoid that "usetab" switched to another tab page.
• ingo#msg#HighlightMsg(): Make a:hlgroup optional, default to 'None' (so the function is useful to return to normal highlighting).
• Add ingo#msg#HighlightN(), an :echon variant.

1.024 23-Apr-2015

• FIX: Also correctly set change marks when replacing entire buffer with ingo#lines#Replace().
• Add ingo/collections/differences.vim module.
• Add ingo/compat/regexp.vim module.
• Add ingo/encoding.vim module.
• Add ingo/str/join.vim module.
• Add ingo#option#SplitAndUnescape().
• Add ingo#list#Zip() and ingo#list#ZipLongest().
• ingo#buffer#visible#Execute(): Restore the window layout when the buffer is visible but in a window with 0 height / width. And restore the previous window when the buffer isn't visible yet. Add a check that the command hasn't switched to another window (and go back if true) before closing the split window.
• Add ingo/regexp/virtcols.vim module.
• Add ingo#str#GetVirtCols() and ingo#text#RemoveVirtCol().
• FIX: Off-by-one: Allow column 1 in ingo#text#Remove().
• BUG: ingo#buffer#scratch#Create() with existing scratch buffer yields "E95: Buffer with this name already exists" instead of reusing the buffer.
• Keep current cursor position when ingo#buffer#scratch#Create() removes the first empty line in the scratch buffer.
• ingo#text#frompattern#GetHere(): Do not move the cursor (to the end of the matched pattern); this is unexpected and can be easily avoided.
• FIX: ingo#cmdargs#GetStringExpr(): Escape (unescaped) double quotes when the argument contains backslashes; else, the expansion of \x will silently fail.
• Add ingo#cmdargs#GetUnescapedExpr(); when there's no need for empty expressions, the removal of the (single / double) quotes may be unexpected.
• ingo#text#Insert(): Also allow insertion one beyond the last line (in column 1), just like setline() allows.
• Rename ingo#date#format#Human() to ingo#date#format#Preferred(), default to %x value for strftime(), and allow to customize that (even dynamically, maybe based on 'spelllang').
• Add optional a:templateForNewBuffer argument to ingo#fs#tempfile#Make() and ensure (by default) that the temp file isn't yet loaded in a Vim buffer (which would generate "E139: file is loaded in another buffer" on the usual :write, :saveas commands).
• Add ingo#compat#shiftwidth(), taken from :h shiftwidth().

1.023 09-Feb-2015

• ENH: Make ingo#selection#frompattern#GetPositions() automatically convert \%# in the passed a:pattern to the hard-coded cursor column.
• Add ingo#collections#mapsort().
• Add ingo/collections/memoized.vim module.
• ENH: Add optional a:isReturnAsList flag to ingo#buffer#temp#Execute() and ingo#buffer#temp#Call().
• ENH: Also allow passing an items List to ingo#dict#Mirror() and ingo#dict#AddMirrored() (useful to influence which key from equal values is used).
• ENH: Also support optional a:isEnsureUniqueness flag for ingo#dict#FromItems().
• Expose ingo#regexp#MakeWholeWordSearch().
• Add ingo#plugin#setting#GetTabLocal().
• ENH: Add a:isFile flag to ingo#escape#file#bufnameescape() in order to do full matching on scratch buffer names. There, the expansion to a full absolute path must be skipped in order to match.
• ENH: Add a:isGetAllRanges optional argument to ingo#range#lines#Get().
• Add ingo#strdisplaywidth#TruncateTo().
• Add ingo/str/frompattern.vim module.
• Add ingo/folds/persistence.vim module.
• Add ingo#cmdargs#pattern#IsDelimited().
• Support ingo#query#fromlist#Query() querying of more than 10 elements by number. Break listing of query choices into multiple lines when the overall question doesn't fit in a single line.
• Add ingo/event.vim module.
• Add ingo/range/merge.vim module.
• Add ingo#filetype#IsPrimary().
• Add ingo#plugin#setting#GetScope().
• Add ingo#regexp#fromwildcard#AnchoredToPathBoundaries().
• Use :close! in ingo#buffer#visible#Execute() to handle modified buffers when :set nohidden, too.
• Improve heuristics of ingo#window#quickfix#IsQuickfixList() to also handle empty location list (with non-empty quickfix list).
• Minor: ingo#text#Remove(): Correct exception prefix.
• Add ingo#window#quickfix#TranslateVirtualColToByteCount() from autoload/QuickFixCurrentNumber.vim.

1.022 26-Sep-2014

• Add ingo#pos#Before() and ingo#pos#After().
• Move LineJuggler#FoldClosed() and LineJuggler#FoldClosedEnd() into ingo-library as ingo#range#NetStart() and ingo#range#NetEnd().
• Add ingo/regexp/pairs.vim module.
• Add ingo#compat#glob() and ingo#compat#globpath().
• ingo#range#lines#Get() needs to consider and temporarily disable closed folds when resolving /{pattern}/ ranges.

1.021 10-Jul-2014

• Add ingo#compat#uniq().
• Add ingo#option#Contains() and ingo#option#ContainsOneOf().
• BUG: Wrong position type causes ingo#selection#position#get() to be one-off with :set selection=exclusive and when the cursor is after the selection.
• Use built-in changenr() in ingo#undo#GetChangeNumber(); actually, the entire function could be replaced by the built-in, if it would not just return one less than the number of the undone change after undo. We want the result to represent the current change, regardless of what undo / redo was done earlier. Change the implementation to test for whether the current change is the last in the buffer, and if not, make a no-op change to get to an explicit change state.
• Simplify ingo#buffer#temprange#Execute() by using changenr(). Keep using ingo#undo#GetChangeNumber() because we need to create a new no-op change when there was a previous :undo.
• Add ingo/smartcase.vim module.
• FIX: ingo#cmdargs#substitute#Parse() branch for special case of {flags} without /pat/string/ must only be entered when a:arguments is not empty.
• ENH: Allow to pass path separator to ingo#regexp#fromwildcard#Convert() and ingo#regexp#fromwildcard#IsWildcardPathPattern().
• Add ingo/collections/permute.vim module.
• Add ingo#window#preview#OpenFilespec(), a wrapper around :pedit that performs the fnameescape() and obeys the custom g:previewwindowsplitmode.

1.020 11-Jun-2014

• Add ingo/dict/find.vim module.
• Use ingo#escape#Unescape() in ingo#cmdargs#pattern#Unescape(). Add ingo#cmdargs#pattern#ParseUnescaped() to avoid the double and inefficient ingo#cmdargs#pattern#Unescape(ingo#cmdargs#pattern#Parse()) so far used by many clients.
• Add ingo#cmdargs#pattern#ParseUnescapedWithLiteralWholeWord() for the common [/]{pattern}[/ behavior as built-in commands like |:djump|]. When the pattern isn't delimited by /.../, the returned pattern is modified so that only literal whole words are matched. so far used by many clients.
• CHG: At ingo#regexp#FromLiteralText(), add the a:isWholeWordSearch also on either side, or when there are non-keyword characters in the middle of the text. The * command behavior where this is modeled after only handles a smaller subset, and this extension looks sensible and DWIM.
• Add ingo#compat#abs().
• Factor out and expose ingo#text#Replace#Area().
• CHG: When replacing at the cursor position, also jump to the beginning of the replacement. This is more consistent with Vim's default behavior.
• Add ingo/record.vim module.
• ENH: Allow passing optional a:tabnr to ingo#window#preview#IsPreviewWindowVisible().
• Factor out ingo#window#preview#OpenBuffer().
• CHG: Change optional a:cursor argument of ingo#window#preview#SplitToPreview() from 4-tuple getpos()-style to [lnum, col]-style.
• Add ingo/query/fromlist.vim module.
• Add ingo/option.vim module.
• Add ingo/join.vim module.
• Expose ingo#actions#GetValExpr().
• Add ingo/range/lines.vim module.
• ENH: Add a:options.commandExpr to ingo#cmdargs#range#Parse().

1.019 24-May-2014

• Add ingo#plugin#setting#BooleanToStringValue().
• Add ingo#strdisplaywidth#GetMinMax().
• Add ingo/undo.vim module.
• Add ingo/query.vim module.
• Add ingo/pos.vim module.
• Add optional a:isBeep argument to ingo#msg#ErrorMsg().
• ingo#fs#path#Normalize(): Don't normalize to Cygwin /cygdrive/x/... when the chosen path separator is "\". This would result in a mixed separator style that is not actually handled.
• ingo#fs#path#Normalize(): Add special normalization to "C:/" on Cygwin via ":/" path separator argument.
• In ingo#actions#EvaluateWithValOrFunc(), remove any occurrence of "v:val" instead of passing an empty list or empty string. This is useful for invoking functions (an expression, not Funcref) with optional arguments.
• ENH: Make ingo#lines#Replace() handle replacement with nothing (empty List) and replacing the entire buffer (without leaving an additional empty line).
• Correct ingo#query#confirm#AutoAccelerators() default choice when not given (1 instead of 0). Avoid using the default choice's first character as accelerator unless in GUI dialog, as the plain text confirm() assigns a default accelerator.
• Move subs/URL.vim into ingo-library as ingo/codec/URL.vim module.
• Allow optional a:ignorecase argument for ingo#str#StartsWith() and ingo#str#EndsWith().
• Add ingo#fs#path#IsCaseInsensitive().
• Add ingo#str#Equals() for when it's convenient to pass in the a:ignorecase flag. This avoids coding the conditional between ==# and ==? yourself.
• Add ingo/fs/path/split.vim module.
• Add ingo#fs#path#Exists().
• FIX: Correct ingo#escape#file#wildcardescape() of * and ? on Windows.

1.018 14-Apr-2014

• FIX: Off-by-one: Allow column 1 in ingo#text#Insert(). Add special cases for insertion at front and end of line (in the hope that this is more efficient).
• Add ingo#escape#file#wildcardescape().
• I18N: Correctly capture last multi-byte character in ingo#text#Get(); don't just add one to the end column, but instead match at the column itself, too.
• Add optional a:isExclusive flag to ingo#text#Get(), as clients may end up with that position, and doing a correct I18N-safe decrease before getting the text is a hen-and-egg problem.
• Add ingo/buffer/temprange.vim module.
• Add ingo#cursor#IsAtEndOfLine().
• FIX: Off-by-one in emulated ingo#compat#strdisplaywidth() reported one too few.

1.017 13-Mar-2014

• CHG: Make ingo#cmdargs#file#FilterFileOptionsAndCommands() return the options and commands in a List, not as a joined String. This allows clients to easily re-escape them and handle multiple ones, e.g. ++ff=dos +setf\ foo.
• Add workarounds for fnameescape() bugs on Windows for ! and [] characters.
• Add ingo#escape#UnescapeExpr().
• Add ingo/str/restricted.vim module.
• Make ingo#query#get#Char() only abort on <Esc> when that character is not in the validExpr (to allow to explicitly query it).
• Add ingo/query/substitute.vim module.
• Add ingo/subst/expr/emulation.vim module.
• Add ingo/cmdargs/register.vim module.

1.016 22-Jan-2014

• Add ingo#window#quickfix#GetList() and ingo#window#quickfix#SetList().
• Add ingo/cursor.vim module.
• Add ingo#text#Insert() and ingo#text#Remove().
• Add ingo#str#StartsWith() and ingo#str#EndsWith().
• Add ingo#dict#Mirror() and ingo#dict#AddMirrored().
• BUG: Wrap :autocmd! undo_ftplugin_N in :execute to that superordinated ftplugins can append additional undo commands without causing "E216: No such group or event: undo_ftplugin_N|setlocal".
• Add ingo/motion/helper.vim module.
• Add ingo/motion/omap.vim module.
• Add ingo/subst/pairs.vim module.
• Add ingo/plugin/compiler.vim module.

1.015 28-Nov-2013

• Add ingo/format.vim module.
• FIX: Actually return the result of a Funcref passed to ingo#register#KeepRegisterExecuteOrFunc().
• Make buffer argument of ingo#buffer#IsBlank() optional, defaulting to the current buffer.
• Allow use of ingo#buffer#IsEmpty() with other buffers.
• CHG: Pass all additional arguments of ingo#actions#ValueOrFunc(), ingo#actions#NormalOrFunc(), ingo#actions#ExecuteOrFunc(), ingo#actions#EvaluateOrFunc() instead of only the first (interpreted as a List of arguments) when passed a Funcref as a:Action.

• Add ingo/print.vim module.

1.014 14-Nov-2013

• Name the temp buffer for ingo#buffer#temp#Execute() and re-use previous instances to avoid increasing the buffer numbers and output of :ls!.
• CHG: Make a:isIgnoreIndent flag to ingo#comments#CheckComment() optional and add a:isStripNonEssentialWhiteSpaceFromCommentString, which is also on by default for DWIM.
• CHG: Don't strip whitespace in ingo#comments#RemoveCommentPrefix(); with the changed ingo#comments#CheckComment() default behavior, this isn't necessary, and is unexpected.
• ingo#comments#RenderComment: When the text starts with indent identical to what 'commentstring' would render, avoid having duplicate indent.
• Minor: Return last search pattern instead of empty string on ingo#search#pattern#GetLastForwardSearch(0).
• Avoid using \ze in ingo#regexp#comments#CommentToExpression(). It may be used in a larger expression that still wants to match after the prefix.
• FIX: Correct case of ingo#os#IsWin*() function names.
• ingo#regexp#FromWildcard(): Limit * glob matching to individual path components and add ** for cross-directory matching.
• Consistently use operating system detection functions from ingo/os.vim within the ingo-library.
