MAPS, EXECUTABLE BUFFERS AND INPUT IN EX/VI:
|
|
|
|
The basic rule is that input in ex/vi is a stack. Every time a key which
|
|
gets expanded is encountered, it is expanded and the expansion is treated
|
|
as if it were input from the user. So, maps and executable buffers are
|
|
simply pushed onto the stack from which keys are returned. The exception
|
|
is that if the "remap" option is turned off, only a single map expansion
|
|
is done. I intend to be fully backward compatible with this.
|
|
|
|
Historically, if the mode of the editor changed (ex to vi or vice versa),
|
|
any queued input was silently discarded. I don't see any reason to either
|
|
support or not support this semantic. I intend to retain the queued input,
|
|
mostly because it's simpler than throwing it away.
|
|
|
|
Historically, neither the initial command on the command line (the + flag)
|
|
or the +cmd associated with the ex and edit commands was subject to mapping.
|
|
Also, while the +cmd appears to be subject to "@buffer" expansion, once
|
|
expanded it doesn't appear to work correctly. I don't see any reason to
|
|
either support or not support these semantics, so, for consistency, I intend
|
|
to pass both the initial command and the command associated with ex and edit
|
|
commands through the standard mapping and @ buffer expansion.
|
|
|
|
One other difference between the historic ex/vi and nex/nvi is that nex
|
|
displays the executed buffers as it executes them. This means that if
|
|
the file is:
|
|
|
|
set term=xterm
|
|
set term=yterm
|
|
set term=yterm
|
|
|
|
the user will see the following during a typical edit session:
|
|
|
|
nex testfile
|
|
testfile: unmodified: line 3
|
|
:1,$yank a
|
|
:@a
|
|
:set term=zterm
|
|
:set term=yterm
|
|
:set term=xterm
|
|
:q!
|
|
|
|
This seems like a feature and unlikely to break anything, so I don't
|
|
intend to match historic practice in this area.
|
|
|
|
The rest of this document is a set of conclusions as to how I believe
|
|
the historic maps and @ buffers work. The summary is as follows:
|
|
|
|
1: For buffers that are cut in "line mode", or buffers that are not cut
|
|
in line mode but which contain portions of more than a single line, a
|
|
trailing <newline> character appears in the input for each line in the
|
|
buffer when it is executed. For buffers not cut in line mode and which
|
|
contain portions of only a single line, no additional characters
|
|
appear in the input.
|
|
2: Executable buffers that execute other buffers don't load their
|
|
contents until they execute them.
|
|
3: Maps and executable buffers are copied when they are executed --
|
|
they can be modified by the command but that does not change their
|
|
actions.
|
|
4: Historically, executable buffers are discarded if the editor
|
|
switches between ex and vi modes.
|
|
5: Executable buffers inside of map commands are expanded normally.
|
|
Maps inside of executable buffers are expanded normally.
|
|
6: If an error is encountered while executing a mapped command or buffer,
|
|
the rest of the mapped command/buffer is discarded. No user input
|
|
characters are discarded.
|
|
7: Characters in executable buffers are remapped.
|
|
8: Characters in executable buffers are not quoted.
|
|
|
|
Individual test cases follow. Note, in the test cases, control characters
|
|
are not literal and will have to be replaced to make the test cases work.

The command is loaded into 'e', and then executed. 'e' executes

'a', which loads 'e', then 'e' executes 'b' anyway.

In vi, the command is loaded into 'a' and then executed. The command

|
subsequent to the 'Q' is (historically, silently) discarded.
|
|
|
|
In ex, the command is loaded into 'a' and then executed. The command
|
|
subsequent to the 'visual' is (historically, silently) discarded. The
|
|
first set command is output by ex, although refreshing the screen usually
|
|
causes it not to be seen.

6: If an error is encountered while executing a mapped command or
