Works similar to ex <f-args>. It only splits the arguments if the
command has more than one posible argument. In cases were the command
can only have 1 argument opts.fargs = { opts.args }
nvim_buf_set_text does not handle negative row numbers correctly: for
example,
nvim_buf_set_text(0, -2, 0, -1, 20, {"Hello", "world"})
should replace the 2nd to last line in the buffer with "Hello" and the
first 20 characters of the last line with "world". Instead, it reports
"start_row out of bounds". This happens because when negative line
numbers are used, they are incremented by one additional number to make
the non-negative line numbers end-exclusive. However, the line numbers
for nvim_buf_set_text should be end-inclusive.
In #15181 we handled this for nvim_buf_get_text by adding a new
parameter to `normalize_index`. We can solve the problem with
nvim_buf_set_text by simply availing ourselves of this new argument.
This is a breaking change, but makes the semantics of negative line
numbers much clearer and more obvious (as well as matching
nvim_buf_get_text).
BREAKING CHANGE: Existing usages of nvim_buf_set_text that use negative
line numbers will be off-by-one.
nvim_buf_get_text is the mirror of nvim_buf_set_text. It differs from
nvim_buf_get_lines in that it allows retrieving only portions of lines.
While this can typically be done easily enough by API clients,
implementing this function provides symmetry between the get/set
text/lines APIs, and also provides a nice convenience that saves API
clients the work of having to slice the result of nvim_buf_get_lines
themselves.
Problem: when accessing `nvim_set_hl` from Lua, empty tables are converted
to empty lists, not dictionaries, resulting in an error for
:lua vim.api.nvim_set_hl(0, "Comment", { cterm = {} })
Workaround: add an empty array as a special case when checking
`dict->cterm.type` and just set `cterm_mask_provided`.
(Proper solution: handle this in `gen_api_dispatch.lua`.)
This commit fixes#9358, where emitting multiple messages with 'echo' or
a single one with 'echom' or 'echoerr' would result in a press-enter
prompt that couldn't be dismissed by pressing enter.
This requires adapting a few tests to spawn a UI before testing whether
press-enter prompts are blocking.
It also fixes#11718, as when combined with #15910 it enables making
sure that neovim never blocks and emits messages on startup.
Problem: "verbose set efm" reports the location of the :compiler command.
(Gary Johnson)
Solution: Add the "-keepscript" argument to :command and use it when
defining CompilerSet.

This includes a partial port of Vim patch 8.2.2569 and some changes to
nvim_eval_statusline() to allow a multibyte fillchar. Literally every
line of C code touched by that patch has been refactored in Nvim, and
that patch contains some irrelevant foldcolumn tests I'm not sure how to
port (as Nvim's foldcolumn behavior has diverged from Vim's).
Behavioral changes:
1. Added support for lua function in keymaps in
--------------------------------------------
- nvim_set_keymap
Can set lua function as keymap rhs like following:
```lua
vim.api.nvim_{buf_}set_keymap('n', '<leader>lr', '', {callback = vim.lsp.buf.references})
```
Note: lua function can only be set from lua . If api function being
called from viml or over rpc this option isn't available.
- nvim_{buf_}get_keymap
When called from lua, lua function is returned is `callback` key .
But in other cases callback contains number of the function ref.
- :umap, nvim_del_keymap & nvim_buf_del_keymap clears lua keymaps correctly.
- :map commands for displaing rhs .
For lua keymaps rhs is displayed as <Lua function ref_no>
Note: lua keymap cannot be set through viml command / functions.
- mapargs()
When dict is false it returns string in `<Lua function ref_no>`
format (same format as :map commands).
When dict is true it returns ref_no number in `callback` key.
- mapcheck()
returns string in `<Lua function ref_no>` format (same format as :map commands).
2. Added support for keymap description
---------------------------------------
- nvim_{buf_}set_keymap: added `desc` option in opts table .
```lua
vim.api.nvim_set_keymap('n', '<leader>w', '<cmd>w<cr>', {desc='Save current file'})
```
- nvim_{buf_}get_keymap: contains `desc` in returned list.
- commands like `:nmap <leader>w` will show description in a new line below rhs.
- `maparg()` return dict contains `desc`.
nvim_buf_get_extmark uses "end_row" rather than "end_line" in its
'details' dict, which means callers must modify the key names if they
want to re-use the information. Change the parameter name in
nvim_buf_set_extmark to "end_row" and use "end_line" as an alias
to make this more consistent.
This is already skipped in all CI environments, so it should also be
skipped in environments that don't like fragile tests. Since there's no
convenient way to express these concisely, add the explicit fragile
skip.
