Problem: 'cedit', 'termwinkey' and 'wildchar' may not be parsed
correctly
Solution: improve string_to_key() function in option.c
(Milly)
- Problem: `^@` raises an error.
Solution: Store as `<Nul>`.
- Problem: `<t_xx` does not raise an error.
Solution: Raise an error if closing `>` is missing.
- Problem: Single `<` or `^` raises an error. It is inconvenient for users.
Solution: They are stored as a single character.

The current LspAttach example shows setting options which are already
set by default. We should expect that users are going to copy-paste
these examples, so we shouldn't use examples that are superfluous and
unnecessary.
Problem: `runtime/tools/emoji_list.vim` is a Lua script masquerading as
Vimscript, which is unnecessary now that `:source` works for Lua files.
Solution: Remove Vimscript wrapper.
Problem: Lua accessors for
- global, local, and special variables (`vim.{g,t,w,b,v}.*`), and
- options (`vim.{o,bo,wo,opt,opt_local,opt_global}.*`),
do not have command-line completion, unlike their vimscript counterparts
(e.g., `g:`, `b:`, `:set`, `:setlocal`, `:call <fn>`, etc.).
Completion for vimscript functions (`vim.fn.*`) is incomplete and does
not list all the available functions.
Solution: Implement completion for vimscript function, variable and
option accessors in `vim._expand_pat` through:
- `getcompletion()` for variable and vimscript function accessors, and
- `nvim_get_all_options_info()` for option accessors.
Note/Remark:
- Short names for options are yet to be implemented.
- Completions for accessors with handles (e.g. `vim.b[0]`, `vim.wo[0]`)
are also yet to be implemented, and are left as future work, which
involves some refactoring of options.
- For performance reasons, we may want to introduce caching for
completing options, but this is not considered at this time since the
number of the available options is not very big (only ~350) and Lua
completion for option accessors appears to be pretty fast.
- Can we have a more "general" framework for customizing completions?
In the future, we may want to improve the implementation by moving the
core logic for generating completion candidates to each accessor (or
its metatable) or through some central interface, rather than writing
all the accessor-specific completion implementations in a single
function: `vim._expand_pat`.
An implication of this current approach is that `NVIM_API_LEVEL` should be
bumped when a new Lua function is added.
TODO(future): add a lint check which requires `@since` on all new functions.
ref #25416
**Problem:** The documentation for `TSNode` and `TSTree` methods is
incomplete from the LSP perspective. This is because they are written
directly to the vimdoc, rather than in Lua and generated to vimdoc.
**Solution:** Migrate the docs to Lua and generate them into the vimdoc.
This requires breaking up the `treesitter/_meta.lua` file into a
directory with a few different modules.
This commit also makes the vimdoc generator slightly more robust with
regard to sections that have multiple help tags (e.g. `*one* *two*`)
Some composite/compound types even as basic as `(string|number)[]` are
not currently supported by the luacats LPEG grammar used by gen_vimdoc.
It would be parsed & rendered as just `string|number`.
Changeset adds better support for these types.
Problem: fixed order of items in insert-mode completion menu
Solution: Introduce the 'completeitemalign' option with default
value "abbr,kind,menu" (glepnir).
Adding an new option `completeitemalign` abbr is `cia` to custom
the complete-item order in popupmenu.

Problem: can set cedit to an invalid value
Solution: Check that the value is a valid key name

When typing `:h usr` it redirects to usr_01.txt, but I'd argue
usr_toc.txt is more useful as you can see an overview of all manuals.
When I usr `:h usr` I personally always intend to go to `usr_toc`.

Complement "g:java_ignore_javadoc" with "g:java_ignore_html"
and "g:java_ignore_markdown" to allow selectively disabling
the recognition of HTML and CommonMark respectively.
(Note that this is not a preview feature.)
======================== LIMITATION ========================
According to the syntactical details of JEP 467:
> Any leading whitespace and the three initial / characters
> are removed from each line.
>
> The lines are shifted left, by removing leading whitespace
> characters, until the non-blank line with the least
> leading whitespace has no remaining leading whitespace.
>
> Additional leading whitespace and any trailing whitespace
> in each line is preserved, because it may be significant.
the following example:
------------------------------------------------------------
/// A summary sentence.
/// A list:
/// - Item A.
/// - Item B.
///
/// Some code span, starting here `
/// 1 + 2 ` and ending at the previous \`.
------------------------------------------------------------
should be interpreted as if it were written thus:
------------------------------------------------------------
///A summary sentence.
/// A list:
/// - Item A.
/// - Item B.
///
/// Some code span, starting here `
/// 1 + 2 ` and ending at the previous \`.
------------------------------------------------------------
Since automatic line rewriting will not be pursued, parts of
such comments having significant whitespace may be ‘wrongly’
highlighted. For convenience, a &fex function is defined to
‘correct’ it: g:javaformat#RemoveCommonMarkdownWhitespace()
(:help ft-java-plugin).

Problem:
Linematch used to use strchr to navigate a string, however strchr does
not supoprt embedded NULs.
Solution:
Use `mmfile_t` instead of `char *` in linematch and introduce `strnchr()`.
Also remove heap allocations from `matching_char_iwhite()`
Fixes: #30505
Problem: No clear way to check whether parsers are available for a given
language.
Solution: Make `language.add()` return `true` if a parser was
successfully added and `nil` otherwise. Use explicit `assert` instead of
relying on thrown errors.
Problem: Language names are only registered for filetype<->language
lookups when parsers are actually loaded; this means users cannot rely
on `vim.treesitter.language.get_lang()` or `get_filetypes()` to return
the correct value when language and filetype coincide and always need to
add explicit fallbacks.
Solution: Always return the language name as valid filetype in
`get_filetypes()`, and default to the filetype in `get_lang()`. Document
this behavior.
Problem:
Headings in :help do not stand out visually.
Solution:
Define a non-standard `@markup.heading.1.delimiter` group and
special-case it in `highlight_group.c`.
FUTURE:
This is a cheap workaround until we have #25718 which will enable:
- fully driven by `vimdoc/highlights.scm` instead of using highlight
tricks (`guibg=bg guifg=bg guisp=fg`)
- better support of "cterm" ('notermguicolors')
Problem: No way to get prompt for input()/confirm()
Solution: add getcmdprompt() function (Shougo Matsushita)

Before this PR, the behavior of nvim_paste is:
- When vim.paste() returns false, return false to the client, but treat
following chunks normally (i.e. rely on the client cancelling the
paste as expected).
- When vim.paste() throws an error, still return true to the client, but
drain the following chunks in the stream without calling vim.paste().
There are two problems with such behavior:
- When vim.paste() errors, the client is still supposed to send the
remaining chunks of the stream, even though they do nothing.
- Having different code paths for two uncommon but similar situations
complicates maintenance.
This PR makes both the cancel case and the error case return false to
the client and drain the remaining chunks of the stream, which, apart
from sharing the same code path, is beneficial whether the client checks
the return value of nvim_paste or not:
- If the client checks the return value, it can avoid sending the
following chunks needlessly after an error.
- If the client doesn't check the return value, chunks following a
cancelled chunk won't be pasted on the server regardless, which leads
to less confusing behavior.
In the api_info() output:
:new|put =map(filter(api_info().functions, '!has_key(v:val,''deprecated_since'')'), 'v:val')
...
{'return_type': 'ArrayOf(Integer, 2)', 'name': 'nvim_win_get_position', 'method': v:true, 'parameters': [['Window', 'window']], 'since': 1}
The `ArrayOf(Integer, 2)` return type didn't break clients when we added
it, which is evidence that clients don't use the `return_type` field,
thus renaming Dictionary => Dict in api_info() is not (in practice)
a breaking change.

Problem:
The default builtin UI client does not declare its client info. This
reduces discoverability and makes it difficult for plugins to identify
the UI.
Solution:
- Call nvim_set_client_info after attaching, as recommended by `:help dev-ui`.
- Also set the "pid" field.
- Also change `ui_active()` to return a count. Not directly relevant to
this commit, but will be useful later.
Problem:
It has long been a convention that references to the builtin terminal UI
should mention "tui", not "term", in order to avoid ambiguity vs the
builtin `:terminal` feature. The final step was to rename term.txt;
let's that step.
Solution:
- rename term.txt => tui.txt
- rename nvim_terminal_emulator.txt => terminal.txt
- `gen_help_html.lua`: generate redirects for renamed pages.
Problem:
User cannot configure the tool used by `vim.ui.open` (or `gx`). With
netrw this was supported by `g:netrw_browsex_viewer`.
Solution:
Introduce `opts.cmd`. Users that want to set this globally can
monkey-patch `vim.ui.open` in the same way described at `:help vim.paste()`.
