WintabsClose doesn't delete buffers #17

Closed fatalis closed 7 years ago

fatalis commented 7 years ago

Is there a reason why? The docs claim that this is a replacement for :bd but it only disassociates them with the tab. If you're using session management you will end up having lots of zombie buffers.

I probably didn't do a good job on the docs. WintabsClose doesn't really delete buffers as that will cause all other windows that are showing this buffer to close. :bd technically doesn't delete buffer either, it just unlists the buffer (:bw actually deletes the buffer). So WintabsClose does similar thing to :bd as it unlists the buffer from tabs.

The zombie buffers is a real issue, I'll try to find a way to fix this. Though deleting a buffer without destroying windows is quite tricky in vim.

@fatalis I just pushed a fix for this issue, can you confirm if it's fixed?

fatalis commented 7 years ago

Yup, appears to be fixed, thanks!
