Problem:
When "-l" is followed by "--", we stop sending args to the Lua script
and treat "--" in the usual way. This was for flexibility but didn't
have a strong use-case, and has these problems:
- prevents Lua "-l" scripts from handling "--" in their own way.
- complicates the startup logic (must call nlua_init before command_line_scan)
Solution:
Don't treat "--" specially if it follows "-l".
Problem:
Nvim has Lua but the "nvim" CLI can't easily be used to execute Lua
scripts, especially scripts that take arguments or produce output.
Solution:
- support "nvim -l [args...]" for running scripts. closes#15749
- exit without +q
- remove lua2dox_filter
- remove Doxyfile. This wasn't used anyway, because the doxygen config
is inlined in gen_vimdoc.py (`Doxyfile` variable).
- use "nvim -l" in docs-gen CI job
Examples:
$ nvim -l scripts/lua2dox.lua --help
Lua2DoX (0.2 20130128)
...
$ echo "print(vim.inspect(_G.arg))" | nvim -l - --arg1 --arg2
$ echo 'print(vim.inspect(vim.api.nvim_buf_get_text(1,0,0,-1,-1,{})))' | nvim +"put ='text'" -l -
TODO?
-e executes Lua code
-l loads a module
-i enters REPL _after running the other arguments_.
This is the first PR featuring a conversion of an upstream vim9script file
into a Lua file.
The generated file can be found in `runtime/autoload/ccomplete.vim` in
the vim repository. Below is a limited history of the changes of that file
at the time of conversion.

The file runtime/lua/_vim9script.lua only needs to be updated when vim9jit is updated
(for any bug fixes or new features, like implementing class and interface, the latest in vim9script).
Further PRs will improve the DX of generated the converted lua and
tracking which files in the neovim's code base have been generated.
Problem:
The "system info" fields in the bug report take up a lot of space at the
top. That hides the most relevant part of the bug report. To read the
actual bug, you always have to scroll down.
Solution:
Move the "system info" fields to the bottom.
- The defined interface for the UI is only the RPC protocol. The original
UI interface as an array of function pointers fill no function.
- On the server, all the UI:s are all RPC channels.
- ui.c is only used on the server.
- The compositor is a preprocessing step for single-grid UI:s
- on the client, ui_client and tui talk directly to each other
- we still do module separation, as ui_client.c could form the basis
of a libnvim client module later.
Items for later PR:s
- vim.ui_attach is still an unhappy child, reconsider based on plugin experience.
- the flags in ui_events.in.h are still a mess. Can be simplified now.
- UX for remote attachment needs more work.
- startup for client can be simplified further (think of the millisecs we can save)
Problem: When unibi_format() modifies params and data->buf overflows,
unibi_format() is called again, causing the params to be
modified twice. This can happen for escapes sequences that
use the %i terminfo format specifier (e.g. cursor_address),
which makes unibi_format() increase the param by 1.
Solution: Make a copy of data->params before calling unibi_format().
Use `white-space: pre-wrap` to preserve white space as per `pre`, but to
allow line wrapping if the display runs out of horizontal space.
This prevents lines overflowing their box, and causing horizontal
scrolling across the entire page on small screens.
This `pre-wrap` technique is used by GitHub to format code for mobile.
See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/white-space#pre-wrap
Now that the TUI calls nvim_paste and nvim_input through RPC, the data
race is much more likely, as nvim_paste is deferred while nvim_input is
not. Add an expect_child_buf_lines() call to avoid the race.
This is intentionally _not_ copied from Vim because our syntax file
makes use of Lua to dynamically generate a list of valid EditorConfig
properties. This requires the builtin editorconfig module, which Vim
does not have.
Problem: Code is indented more than needed.
Solution: Use an early return to reduce indentation. (Yegappan Lakshmanan,

- try to make the CI badge more reliable
- remove "snap" badge, it's too specific and doesn't show stats
- remove twitter link because it's already linked from
https://github.com/neovim and https://neovim.io/ , and it's not super
necessary in the readme.
Problem: With a long running Vim the temp directory might be cleared on
some systems.
Solution: Lock the temp directory. (closesvim/vim#6044)
