Problem:
vim.deprecate() shows ":help deprecated" for third-party plugins. ":help
deprecated" only describes deprecations in Nvim, and is unrelated to any
3rd party deprecations.
Solution:
If `plugin` is specified, don't show ":help deprecated".
fix#22235
we cannot remove 'paste'. It is very common in plugins and configs.
'pastetoggle' can and should be removed though, it's a total waste of everyone's time because it generates bug reports and doesn't work well, and is useless because bracketed-paste works better.
Problem:
The function name `vim.pretty_print`:
1. is verbose, which partially defeats its purpose as sugar
2. does not draw from existing precedent or any sort of convention
(except external projects like penlight or python?), which reduces
discoverability, and degrades signaling about best practices.
Solution:
- Rename to `vim.print`.
- Change the behavior so that
1. strings are printed without quotes
2. each arg is printed on its own line
3. tables are indented with 2 instead of 4 spaces
- Example:
:lua ='a', 'b', 42, {a=3}
a
b
42
{
a = 3
}
Comparison of alternatives:
- `vim.print`:
- pro: consistent with Lua's `print()`
- pro: aligns with potential `nvim_print` API function which will
replace nvim_echo, nvim_notify, etc.
- con: behaves differently than Lua's `print()`, slightly misleading?
- `vim.echo`:
- pro: `:echo` has similar "pretty print" behavior.
- con: inconsistent with Lua idioms.
- `vim.p`:
- pro: very short, fits with `vim.o`, etc.
- con: not as discoverable as "echo"
- con: less opportunity for `local p = vim.p` because of potential shadowing.
scroll_delta contains how much the top line of a window moved since the
last time win_viewport was emitted. It is expected to be used to
implement smooth scrolling. For this purpose it only counts "virtual" or
"displayed" so folds should count as one line. Because of this it
adds extra information that cannot be computed from the topline
parameter.

Problem: Cannot easily get the list of sourced scripts.
Solution: Add the getscriptinfo() function. (Yegappan Lakshmanan,

Problem: Highlight for popupmenu kind and extra cannot be set.

Never return the changes an only notify them using the `on_changedtree`
callback.
It is not guaranteed for a plugin that it'll be the first one to call
`tree:parse()` and thus get the changes.
Closes#19915
* Also fix newly found type mismatch.
* Note that it generates new warnings about using @private client
methods. A proper fix would be to revamp the lsp client documentation
altogether.
Problem:
Some built-in ftplugins set omnifunc/tagfunc/formatexpr which causes
lsp.lua:set_defaults() to skip setup of defaults for those filetypes.
For example the C++ ftplugin has:
omnifunc=ccomplete#Complete
Last set from /usr/share/nvim/runtime/ftplugin/c.vim line 30
so the changes done in #95c65a6b221fe6e1cf91e8322e7d7571dc511a71
will always be skipped for C++ files.
Solution:
Overwrite omnifunc/tagfunc/formatexpr options that were set by stock
ftplugin.
Fixes#21001
Problem:
If vim_tempdir mysteriously goes missing (typically by "antivirus" on
Windows), any plugins using tempname() will be broken for the rest of
the session. #1432#9833https://groups.google.com/g/vim_use/c/ef55jNm5czI
Steps:
mkdir foo
TMPDIR=./foo nvim
:echo tempname()
!rm -r foo
:echo tempname()
tempname() still uses the foo path even though it was deleted.
Solution:
- Don't assume that vim_tempdir exists.
- If it goes missing once, retry vim_mktempdir and log (silently) an error.
- If it goes missing again, retry vim_mktempdir and show an error.
Rejected in Vim for performance reasons:

But, logging shows that `vim_gettempdir` is not called frequently.

When a buffer update callback is called, textlock is active so buffer
text cannot be changed, but cursor can still be moved. This can cause
problems when the buffer update is in the middle of an operator, like
the one mentioned in #16729. The solution is to save cursor position and
restore it afterwards, like how cursor is saved and restored when
evaluating an <expr> mapping.
Problem: Value of MAXCOL not available in Vim script.
Solution: Add v:maxcol. (Naohiro Ono, closesvim/vim#9451)

also make implicit submodules "uri" and "_inspector" work with completion
this is needed for `:lua=vim.uri_<tab>` wildmenu completion
to work even before uri or _inspector functions are used.
feat(lsp)!: change semantic token highlighting
Change the default highlights used, and add more highlights per token.
Add an LspTokenUpdate event and a highlight_token function.
:Inspect now shows any highlights applied by token highlighting rules,
default or user-defined.
BREAKING CHANGE: change the default highlight groups used by semantic
token highlighting.
- version.cmp(): assert valid version
- add test for loading vim.version (the other tests use shared.lua in
the test runner)
- reduce test scopes, reword test descriptions
Problem:
gen_vimdoc.py / lua2dox.lua does not support @defgroup or \defgroup
except for "api-foo" modules.
Solution:
Modify `gen_vimdoc.py` to look for section names based on `helptag_fmt`.

- Support @module ?

Problem:
Help tags like vim.treesitter.language.add() are confusing because
`vim.treesitter.language` is (thankfully) not a user-facing module.
Solution:
Ignore the "fstem" when generating "treesitter" tags.
Problem:
"show" is potentially a new verb that we can avoid (there is already
"open" and "echo"). Even if we can't avoid it, the behavior of
`show_tree` fits well in the "inspect" family of functions: a way for
users to introspect/reflect on the state of Nvim.
Existing "inspect" functions:
vim.inspect()
vim.inspect_pos()
vim.treesitter.inspect_language()
nvim__inspect_cell
Solution:
Rename `show_tree` to `inspect_tree`.
Problem:
No easy way to find files under certain directories (ex: grab all files under
`test/`) or exclude the content of certain paths (ex. `build/`, `.git/`)
Solution:
Pass the full `path` as an arg to the predicate.
This feature has long been obsolete. The 'keymap' option can be used
to support language keymaps, including hebrew and hebrewp (phonetic
mapping). There is no need to keep the old c code with hardcoded
keymaps for some languages.
