- All "chunks" in a paste-stream should form a single undo-block. Side
effect of 7a85792884 was to create an undo-block for each chunk.
- Also: remove old :redraw force logic, irrelevant after 7a85792884.

- Treat empty {rhs} like <Nop>
- getchar.c: Pull "repl. MapArg termcodes" into func
The "preprocessing code" surrounding the replace_termcodes calls needs
to invoke replace_termcodes, and also check if RHS is equal to "<Nop>".
To reduce code duplication, factor this out into a helper function.
Also add an rhs_is_noop flag to MapArguments; buf_do_map_explicit
expects an empty {rhs} string for "<Nop>", but also needs to distinguish
that from something like ":map lhs<cr>" where no {rhs} was provided.
- getchar.c: Use allocated buffer for rhs in MapArgs
Since the MAXMAPLEN limit does not apply to the RHS of a mapping (or
else an RHS that calls a really long autoload function from a plugin
would be incorrectly rejected as being too long), use an allocated
buffer for RHS rather than a static buffer of length MAXMAPLEN + 1.
- Mappings LHS and RHS can contain literal space characters, newlines, etc.
- getchar.c: replace_termcodes in str_to_mapargs
It makes sense to do this; str_to_mapargs is, intuitively, supposed to
take a "raw" command string and parse it into a totally "do_map-ready"
struct.
- api/vim.c: Update lhs, rhs len after replace_termcodes
Fixes a bug in which replace_termcodes changes the length of lhs or rhs,
but the later search through the mappings/abbreviations hashtables
still uses the old length value. This would cause the search to fail
erroneously and throw 'E31: No such mapping' errors or 'E24: No such
abbreviation' errors.
- getchar: Create new map_arguments struct
So that a string of map arguments can be parsed into a more useful, more
portable data structure.
- getchar.c: Add buf_do_map function
Exactly the same as the old do_map, but replace the hardcoded references
to the global `buf_T* curbuf` with a function parameter so that we can
invoke it from nvim_buf_set_keymap.
- Remove gettext calls in do_map error handling
- render_node() is now the main rendering function: it traverses a node
and builds the Vim help text recursively.
- render_para() is weird and ugly, it is the entry-point for rendering
the help text for one docstring'd function.
- Any long symbol is intentional and should never be hardwrapped.
- Vim help tags are often hyphenated, and hardwrapping on hyphens breaks
the Vim help syntax parser.

vim-patch:8.0.0320: warning for unused variable with small build
Use `@cond <something>` to obscure a section from doxygen.
doxygen thinks kvec_withinit_t() is a function. That adds noise to the
generated API documentation, and also prevents the following function
from being noticed.
It's important that users have a single, easy-to-remember place for
reading about the API. So this commit changes gen_api_vimdoc.py so that
the generated section is appended to api.txt instead of creating
a separate document.
Also remove the section numbering and ToC: it's a maintenance cost, and
it will be unnecessary when #5169 is integrated.
API level is disconnected from NVIM version. The API metadata holds the
current API level, and the lowest backwards-compatible level supported
by this instance.
Release 0.1.6 is the first release that reports the Nvim version and API
level.
metadata['version'] = {
major: 0,
minor: 1,
patch: 6,
api_level: 1,
api_compatible: 0,
api_prerelease: false,
}
The API level may remain unchanged across Nvim releases if the API has
not changed.
When changing the API,
- set NVIM_API_PRERELEASE to true
- increment NVIM_API_LEVEL (at most once per Nvim version)
- adjust NVIM_API_LEVEL_COMPAT if backwards-compatibility was broken
api_level_0.mpack was generated from Nvim 0.1.5 with:
nvim --api-info

The API level may remain unchanged across Neovim releases if the API has
not changed.
When changing the API the CMake variable NVIM_API_PRERELEASE is set to
true, and NVIM_API_CURRENT/NVIM_API_COMPATIBILITY are incremented
accordingly.
The functional tests check the API table against fixtures of past
versions of Neovim. It compares all the functions in the old table with
the new one, it does ignore some metadata attributes that do not alter
the function signature or were removed since 0.1.5. Currently the only
fixture is 0.mpack, generated from Neovim 0.1.5 with nvim --api-info.
Tighten our jargon, avoid mentioning "msgpack" everywhere we mention the
RPC API. Prefer "RPC API" when speaking about the remote API.
Though it's conceivable that we may one day support some protocol other
than msgpack, that isn't relevant to most of our discussion of the API,
including this document.
The file name msgpack_rpc.txt is preserved to avoid totally breaking
URLs.
