Give embeders a chance to set up nvim, by processing a request before
startup. This allows an external UI to show messages and prompts from
--cmd and buffer loading (e.g. swap files)
Problem: MS-Windows users expect -? to work like --help.
Solution: Add -?. (Christian Brabandt, closesvim/vim#2867)

Include runtime/ changes from 85eee130f4 to pass 8.1.0231 tests.
Vim supports multiple locations for the user's vimrc, so it will use the
first one that is found, ignoring the rest. Nvim follows the XDG spec,
so there is only one place to look for the user's vimrc, thus making the
statement unnecessary and confusing for nvim users.
Ref #8871
This changes Ex mode (Q, -e) to work like Vim's "improved Ex mode"
(gQ, -E). That brings some small behavior differences, but should not
impact most Ex scripts (unless, for example, they depend on mappings
being disabled--but that can be solved for -e by skipping user config).
Before this change:
* the screen test hangs.
After this change:
* Q acts like gQ.
* -e/-es differs from -E/-Es only in its treatment of stdin.
This moves towards potentially removing getexmodeline().
(HINT: That does NOT mean "removing Ex mode", it means removing the
Vi-compatible Ex mode, which differs from Vim's "improved Ex mode" only
in some minor details (e.g. mappings are disabled).)
ref #1089 :-)~
Fixes 2 failing tests in startup_spec.lua.
The Windows-only `--literal` option complicates support of "stdin-as-text
+ file-args" (#7679). Could work around it, but it's not worth
the trouble:
- users have a reasonable (and englightening) alternative: nvim +"n *"
- "always literal" is more consistent/predictable
- avoids platform-specific special-case
Unrelated changes:
- Replace fileno(stdxx) with STDXX_FILENO for consistency (not motivated
by any observed technical reason).
Until now, the default `:filetype ...` setup was skipped if the user
config touched `:filetype` in any way (including implicitly via `:syntax
on`). No one needs that, and it's very confusing.
Instead, proceed with `:filetype ... on` unless the user explicitly
called `:filetype ... off`.
closes#7765
Get terminal debugging info by starting Nvim with 'verbose' level 3:
nvim -V3log
This is like Vim's `:set termcap`, which was removed in Nvim (and would
be very awkward to restore because of the decoupled UI).
The flag enables the current local directory set by ":lcd" to be saved
to views which is the current default behaviour. The option can be
removed to disable this behaviour.
closes#7435
vim-patch:8.0.1289
Problem: Adding pattern to ":oldfiles" is not a generic solution.
Solution: Add the ":filter /pat/ cmd" command modifier. Only works for some
commands right now.

ex_loadview() was changed in 9b1c939370 to check the file open result.
If user doesn't care about failure to open, using :silent! instead of
:silent is a reasonable, conventional approach.
Closes#3196
Problem: It is not possible to use plugins in an "after" directory to tune
the behavior of a package.
Solution: First load plugins from non-after directories, then packages and
finally plugins in after directories.
Reset 'loadplugins' before executing --cmd arguments.

Do this on all systems, so that portable builds work everywhere. This
allows us to ship archives with this folder structure:
bin/nvim
share/nvim/runtime
then ./bin/nvim works without the user needing to explicitly set VIMRUNTIME.
`deprecated.txt` is a place for deprecated tags to live.
- Encourages aggressive documentation of deprecations without cluttering
the main help files.
- Provides a single browsable reference of all deprecations.
Other changes:
- Move tags to doc/vim_diff.txt.
- Remove doc/quotes.txt. It has little historical value, except maybe the
Larry Wall quote.
In 3b12bb225a, ":oldfiles" was taught to
behave like Vim's ":browse oldfiles" if ":oldfiles!" was used. However,
this conflates the use of ! for abandoning a modified buffer with
choosing one file out of a list of oldfiles.
Now that ":browse" is supported again, ":browse oldfiles" will allow the
user to select an old file, while still complaining if that would cause
a modified buffer to be abandoned. ":browse oldfiles!" will just
abandon the buffer, as expected.
Updated runtime files.
