Terminal emulator window:
+- using feedkeys() does not work? (Charles Sheridan, 2018 Feb 17)
- Lots of stuff to implement, see src/terminal.c
- Improve debugger interface:
- Include all debug features of Agide.
- Implement the right-click popup menu for the terminal. Can use the
completion popup menu code and mouse dragging.
Use it for "set breakpoint", "remove breakpoint", etc.
- - get ideas from http://clewn.sf.net
- Look into the idevim plugin/script.
-- Improve testing:
- Make a screenshot of a terminal, store in a file.
- Display a stored screenshot, display diff with another one.
- Make a test that puts Vim in a specific state, make a screenshot and compare
- with the expected screenshot. Set t_Co to 256.
-
-+channel:
-- get_job_options() isn't clear about what causes an error, often just returns
- "invalid argument".
-- Add a separate timeout for opening a socket. Currently it's fixed at 50
- msec, which is too small for a remote connection. (tverniquet, #2130)
-- Try out background make plugin:
- https://github.com/AndrewVos/vim-make-background
-- Problem with stderr on Windows? (Vincent Rischmann, 2016 Aug 31, #1026)
-- Writing raw mode to a buffer should still handle NL characters as line
- breaks. (Dmitry Zotikov, 2017 Aug 16)
-- When out_cb executes :sleep, the close_cb may be invoked. (Daniel Hahler,
- 2016 Dec 11, #1320)
-- Implement |job-term| ?
-- Channel test fails with Motif. Sometimes kills the X11 server.
-- When a message in the queue but there is no callback, drop it after a while?
- Add timestamp to queued messages and callbacks with ID, remove after a
- minute. Option to set the droptime.
-- Add an option to drop text of very long lines? Default to 1 Mbyte.
-- Add remark about undo sync, is there a way to force it?
-- When starting a job, have an option to open the server socket, so we know
- the port, and pass it to the command with --socket-fd {nr}. (Olaf Dabrunz,
- Feb 9) How to do this on MS-Windows?
-- For connection to server, a "keep open" flag would be useful. Retry
- connecting in the main loop with zero timeout.
-- job_start(): run job in a newly opened terminal (not a terminal window).
- With xterm could use -S{pty}.
- Although user could use "xterm -e 'cmd arg'".
-
-Regexp problems:
-- When search pattern has the base character both with and without combining
- character, search fails. E.g. "รรีบ" in "การรีบรักใคร". (agguser, #2312)
-- [:space:] only matches ASCII spaces. Add [:white:] for all space-like
- characters, esp. including 0xa0. Use character class zero.
-- Since 7.4.704 the old regex engine fails to match [[:print:]] in 0xf6.
- (Manuel Ortega, 2016 Apr 24)
- Test fails on Mac. Avoid using isalpha(), isalnum(), etc? Depends on
- LC_CTYPE
-- The old engine does not find a match for "/\%#=1\(\)\{80}", the new engine
- matches everywhere.
-- Using win_linetabsize() can still be slow. Cache the result, store col and
- vcol. Reset them when moving to another line.
-- Very slow with a long line and Ruby highlighting. (John Whitley, 2014 Dec 4)
-- Bug with pattern: '\vblock (\d+)\.\n.*\d+%(\1)@<!\.$'
- (Lech Lorens, 2014 Feb 3)
-- Issue 164: freeze on regexp search.
-- Ignorecase not handled properly for multi-byte characters. (Axel Bender,

-- Search for \%d0\+ may fail with E363. (Christian Brabandt, 2016 Oct 4)
-- \%'[ does not work. '%'] does work. (Masaaki Nakamura, 2016 Apr 4)
-- Bug relating to back references. (Ingo Karkat, 2014 Jul 24)
-- New RE does not give an error for empty group: "\(\)\{2}" (Dominique Pelle,
- 2015 Feb 7)
-- Using back reference before the capturing group sometimes works with the old
- engine, can we do this with the new engine? E.g. with
- "/\%(<\1>\)\@<=.*\%(<\/\(\w\+\)>\)\@=" matching text inside HTML tags.
- This problem is probably the same: "\%(^\1.*$\n\)\@<=\(\d\+\).*$".
- (guotuofeng, 2015 Jun 22)
-- Strange matching with "\(Hello\n\)\@<=A". (Anas Syed, 2015 Feb 12)
-- Problem with \v(A)@<=b+\1c. (Issue 334)
-- Diff highlighting can be very slow. (Issue 309)
-- Using %> for a virtual column has a check based on 'tabsize'. Better would
- be to cache the result of win_linetabsize(col), storing both col and vcol,
- and use them to decide whether win_linetabsize() needs to be called. Reset
- col and vcol when moving to another line.
-- this doesn't work: "syntax match ErrorMsg /.\%9l\%>20c\&\%<28c/". Leaving
- out the \& works. Seems any column check after \& fails.
-- Difference between two engines: ".*\zs\/\@>\/" on text "///"
