Problem:
- API functions using `try_start` directly instead of `TRY_WRAP`, do not
surface the underlying error message, and instead show generic things
like "Failed to set buffer".
- Error handling code is duplicated in the API impl, instead of
delegating to the vim buffer/window handling logic.
Solution:
- Use `TRY_WRAP`.
## Problem
With 'winfixbuf' enabled, `nvim_win_set_buf` and `nvim_set_current_buf` fail
even if targeting the already-current buffer.
vim.wo.winfixbuf = true
vim.api.nvim_win_set_buf(0, 0)
vim.api.nvim_set_current_buf(0)
Solution:
Check for this condition.
Before calling "attach" a screen object is just a dummy container for
(row, col) values whose purpose is to be sent as part of the "attach"
function call anyway.
Just create the screen in an attached state directly. Keep the complete
(row, col, options) config together. It is still completely valid to
later detach and re-attach as needed, including to another session.

- `alter_slashes` belongs in `testutil.lua`, not `testnvim.lua`.
- `alter_slashes` is an unusual name. Rename it to `fix_slashes`.
- invert its behavior, to emphasize that `/` slashes are the preferred,
pervasive convention, not `\` slashes.
Problem:
If $NVIM_APPNAME is a relative dir path, Nvim fails to start its
primary/default server, and `v:servername` is empty.
Root cause is d34c64e342, but this wasn't
noticed until 96128a5076 started reporting the error more loudly.
Solution:
- `server_address_new`: replace slashes "/" in the appname before using
it as a servername.
- `vim_mktempdir`: always prefer the system-wide top-level "nvim.user/"
directory. That isn't intended to be specific to NVIM_APPNAME; rather,
each *subdirectory* ("nvim.user/xxx") is owned by each Nvim instance.
Nvim "apps" can be identified by the server socket(s) stored in those
per-Nvim subdirs.
fix#30256
Problem:
`nvim --listen` does not error on EADDRINUSE. #30123
Solution:
Now that `$NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS` is deprecated and input *only* (instead
of the old, ambiguous situation where it was both an input *and* an
output), we can be fail fast instead of trying to "recover". This
reverts the "recovery" behavior of
704ba4151e, but that was basically
a workaround for the fragility of `$NVIM_LISTEN_ADDRESS`.
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
Also close Nvim instance before removing log file, otherwise the Nvim
instance will still write to the log file.
Also adjust log level in libuv_process_spawn(). Ref #27660
This is the first installment of a multi-PR series significantly
refactoring how highlights are being specified.
The end goal is to have a base set of 20 ish most common highlights,
and then specific files only need to add more groups to that as needed.
As a complicating factor, we also want to migrate to the new default
color scheme eventually. But by sharing a base set, that future PR
will hopefully be a lot smaller since a lot of tests will be migrated
just simply by updating the base set in place.
As a first step, fix the anti-pattern than Screen defaults to ignoring
highlights. Highlights are integral part of the screen state, not
something "extra" which we only test "sometimes". For now, we still
allow opt-out via the intentionally ugly
screen._default_attr_ids = nil
The end goal is to get rid of all of these eventually (which will be
easier as part of the color scheme migration)
Problem: too vague errors for 'listchars'/'fillchars'
Solution: Include the field name in error message.

A bit big, but practically it was a lot simpler to change over all
fillchars and all listchars at once, to not need to maintain two
parallel implementations.
This is mostly an internal refactor, but it also removes an arbitrary
limitation: that 'fillchars' and 'listchars' values can only be
single-codepoint characters. Now any character which fits into a single
screen cell can be used.
This is the command invoked repeatedly to make the changes:
:%s/^\(.*\)|\%(\*\(\d\+\)\)\?$\n\1|\%(\*\(\d\+\)\)\?$/\=submatch(1)..'|*'..(max([str2nr(submatch(2)),1])+max([str2nr(submatch(3)),1]))/g
Problem: [security] use-after-free with wildmenu
Solution: properly clean up the wildmenu when exiting
Fix wildchar/wildmenu/pum memory corruption with special wildchar's
Currently, using `wildchar=<Esc>` or `wildchar=<C-\>` can lead to a
memory corruption if using wildmenu+pum, or wrong states if only using
wildmenu. This is due to the code only using one single place inside the
cmdline process loop to perform wild menu clean up (by checking
`end_wildmenu`) but there are other odd situations where the loop could
have exited and we need a post-loop clean up just to be sure. If the
clean up was not done you would have a stale popup menu referring to
invalid memory, or if not using popup menu, incorrect status line (if
`laststatus=0`).
For example, if you hit `<Esc>` two times when it's wildchar, there's a
hard-coded behavior to exit command-line as a failsafe for user, and if
you hit `<C-\><C-\><C-N>` it will also exit command-line, but the clean
up code would not have hit because of specialized `<C-\>` handling.
Fix Ctrl-E / Ctrl-Y to not cancel/accept wildmenu if they are also
used for 'wildchar'/'wildcharm'. Currently they don't behave properly,
and also have potentially memory unsafe behavior as the logic is
currently not accounting for this situation and try to do both.
(Previous patch that addressed this: vim/vim#11677)
Also, correctly document Escape key behavior (double-hit it to escape)
in wildchar docs as it's previously undocumented.
In addition, block known invalid chars to be set in `wildchar` option,
such as Ctrl-C and `<CR>`. This is just to make it clear to the user
they shouldn't be set, and is not required for this bug fix.

Problem:
NVIM_APPNAME does not allow path separators in the name, so relative
paths can't be used:
NVIM_APPNAME="neovim-configs/first-config" nvim
NVIM_APPNAME="neovim-configs/second-config" nvim
Solution:
Let NVIM_APPNAME be a relative path. Absolute paths are not supported.

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.
This commit implements the ability to control all of the XDG paths
Neovim should use. This is done by setting an environment variable named
NVIM_APPNAME. For example, setting $NVIM_APPNAME makes Neovim look for
its configuration directory in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/$NVIM_APPNAME instead of
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/nvim.
If NVIM_APPNAME is not set or is an empty string, "nvim" will be used as
default.
The usecase for this feature is to enable an easy way to switch from
configuration to configuration. One might argue that the various $XDG
environment variables can already be used for this usecase. However,
setting $XDG environment variables also affects tools spawned by Neovim.
For example, while setting $XDG_CONFIG_HOME will enable Neovim to use a
different configuration directory, it will also prevent Git from finding
its "default" configuration.

E970: Failed to initialize builtin lua modules
Solution:
- Log to a private $NVIM_LOG_FILE in tests that intentionally fail and
cause ERR log messages.
- Assert that the expected messages are actually logged.
Extend the capabilities of is_os to detect more platforms such as
freebsd and openbsd. Also remove `iswin()` helper function as it can be
replaced by `is_os("win")`.
