Calendar - Calendar Conflicting plugin commands & names #100

Closed anoduck closed 8 years ago

anoduck commented 8 years ago

I first wanted to thank you for writing a awesome plugin. It is by far the best calendar plugin/package/addon that I have found in the editor world. It makes life so much easier.

Second, as you probably know it conflicts with matsumoto's calendar plugin. To reiterate the situation:

Both are named calendar.vim, and when inside of vim you call :Calendar either your plugin or matsumoto's plugin loads depending where it is located inside of your vimrc. Whichever plugin you are able to execute, the other you are not. Since org-mode for vim and journal.vim use matsumoto's plugin, it makes it impossible to have both enabled inside of your vimrc and/or use both at the same time.

I have attempted to find information concerning creating a location specific key map, that is a keymap that refers to a location inside of the load path. ex./home/user/.vim/bundle/Itchyny'sAwesomeCalendarplugin/plugin/calendar.vim = <map>something. But have been unable to find information about such a keymap, or how to do it. I have even searched the plugins for vim. I usually use emacs, but your plugin is sweet. I figured it would be easier to trouble you since your plugin is cleanly written and organized, and a modification or some form there of, might be a requirement. But, I could be wrong.

Thanks,

I should apologize on this. We cannot use both my plugin and mattn's calendar plugin. This plugin may not be able to be used with a plugin which interacts with mattn's calendar plugin. This problem was actually supposed to appear since I was developing the plugin. I actually renamed my plugin multiple times (neo-calendar, ultimate-calendar, zcalendar or something like that) but I couldn't be satisfied with writing such function prefix again and again (like zcalendar#foo#bar). So after all I decided to name this plugin just calendar and make it a replacement of mattn's calendar plugin. Some people blamed me for creating a conflict intentionally, and claim that how the users choose plugins should be decided by the users. I agree with the opinion but I could not come up with a better command/function prefix than calendar; this plugin is actually a calendar in the editor too.

Whoa, smoking fast response time...

No worries and no need for an apology. Great plugin.
