contains the duplicate tag fix in runtime/doc/testing.txt.
Problem: Cannot read back the prompt of a prompt buffer.
Solution: Add prompt_getprompt(). (Ben Jackson, closesvim/vim#6851)
077cc7aa0e
Updated prompt_getprompt() doc to cb80aa2d53
and removed mention of method syntax usage (not supported by Nvim).
Problem: Cannot sort using locale ordering.
Solution: Add a flag for :sort and sort() to use the locale. (Dominique
Pellé, closesvim/vim#7237)

Replacement for Vim's test_null_string().
Vim uses it to verify that its codebase handles null strings.
Preparation for the Test_null_list() in patch v8.2.1822.
Use v:_null_string, not non-existent env var, for null string tests.
Mention v:_null_string in id() because id(v:_null_string) returns (nil).
...signs is slow
Problem: Placing a larger number of signs is slow.
Solution: Add functions for dealing with a list of signs. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closes#4636)
Problem: When 'matchpairs' is empty every character beeps. (Marco Hinz)
Solution: Bail out when no character in 'matchpairs' was found.
(closesvim/vim#8053) Add assert_nobeep().

Also make >> and << work better with 'vartabstop'. (Christian
Brabandt)
f951416a83
Problem: Cannot parse a date/time string.
Solution: Add strptime(). (Stephen Wall, closes #)
10455d43fe
N/A patches for version.c:
vim-patch:8.1.2344: Cygwin: warning for using strptime()
Problem: Cygwin: warning for using strptime().
Solution: Move defining _XOPEN_SOURCE and __USE_XOPEN to vim.h. (Ken Takata,
closesvim/vim#5265) Use 700 for _XOPEN_SOURCE for mkdtemp().
6a228c6463

Before #12937, the only way to specify the `$TERM` for a pty job was
through the `TERM` key in the job's opts dict. This was shuttled to the
child process throug a special field on the PtyProcess object and
injected into the environment after forking.
Now that we have a proper way to specify the environment for a job, we
can simply ensure that the env dict has a proper `TERM` set and avoid
the extra shuttling of data around.
This deprecates the use of the `TERM` option, but will still honor it if
present, although at a lower priority than a `TERM` present in the env
dict.
This also fixes#13874 because we're no longer trying to overwrite
`TERM` in the env dict with the special pty `term_name`. Doing so
raises an internal error because of the existing key which, under
certain circumstances, would cause the "hit enter" prompt. However,
since the child process had already forked, there was no way for the
user to acknowledge the prompt and we would just hang there.
Problem: Cannot easily get all the current marks.
Solution: Add getmarklist(). (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closes#6032)

Cherry-pick the column number fix from patch v8.2.0871
because patch v8.2.0871 cannot be fully ported
without the method patches.
Co-authored-by: Peter Wolf <pwolf2310@gmail.com>
Problem: Cannot get window type for autocmd and preview window.
Solution: Add types to win_gettype(). (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#6277)
0fe937fd86
Cherry-pick test_preview.vim,test_window_cmd.vim changes
from patch v8.2.0522.
Problem: trim() always trims both ends.
Solution: Add an argument to only trim the beginning or end. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#6126)
2245ae18e3
Problem: Quickfix buffer shows up in list, can't get buffer number.
Solution: Make the quickfix buffer unlisted when the quickfix window is
closed. get the quickfix buffer number with getqflist().
(Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#4113)
647e24ba3d
Problem: Cannot easily change the current quickfx list index.
Solution: Add the "idx" argument to setqflist(). (Yegappan Lakshmanan,
closesvim/vim#3701)
5b69c22fd2
Problem: Dictionary with string keys is longer than needed.
Solution: Use *{key: val} for literaly keys.
d5abb4c877
Vim's popup,textprop features are N/A.
Neovim has not polyfilled their APIs.
Skip docs and tests for these features.
* support for :perl, :perlfile, :perldo and perleval()
* document that the perl provider doesn't currently work on Windows
* document that the perl legacy interface is now also supported
* added perleval() documentation
* import legacy perl interface tests
* only perl 5.22+ is supported
* healtcheck: use g:perl_host_prog if its set instead
using just 'perl' isn't correct as it may not be the version requested.
ditto for 'cpanm', rather go through 'App::cpanminus' to find the latest
perl version
- remove redundant autocmd list
This "grouped" list is useless, it only gets in the way when searching
for event names.
- intro.txt: cleanup
- starting.txt: update, revisit
- doc: `:help bisect`
- mbyte.txt: update aliases 1656367b90. closes#11960
- options: remove 'guifontset'. Why:
- It is complicated and is used by almost no one.
- It is unlikely to be implemented by Nvim GUIs (complicated to parse,
specific to Xorg...).
Problem: Not so easy to interrupt a script programatically.
Solution: Add the interrupt() function. (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, closesvim/vim#2834)

When UV_OVERLAPPED_PIPE was used for the pipe passed to the child process, a
problem occurred with the standard input of the .Net Framework application
(#11809). Therefore, add the overlapped option to jobstart() and change it so
that it is set only when necessary
Problem: Cannot delete a match from another window. (Paul Jolly)
Solution: Add window ID argument to matchdelete(), clearmatches(),
getmatches() and setmatches(). (Andy Massimino, closesvim/vim#4178)
aff749145e
Problem: The "last used" info of a buffer is under used.
Solution: Add "lastused" to getbufinfo(). List buffers sorted by last-used
field. (Andi Massimino, closesvim/vim#4722)
52410575be
Problem: A plugin cannot easily expand a command like done internally.
Solution: Add the expandcmd() function. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#4514)
80dad48c50
Problem: :echomsg and :echoerr do not handle List and Dict like :echo does.
(Daniel Hahler)
Solution: Be more tolerant about the expression result type.
461a7fcfce
Add lua functional tests for :echo,:echon,:echomsg,:echoerr
because nvim did not port "test_" functions from Vim
that modify internal state.
Testing :echoerr via try/catch is sufficient.
Problem: MS-Windows: Cannot interrupt gdb when program is running.
Solution: Add debugbreak() and use it in the terminal debugger.
Respect 'modified' in a prompt buffer.
4551c0a9fc
In a multi-window scenario, it is possible to return focus to the last
accessed window via n_CTRL-W_p. However, in the case of a multi-tab
scenario, there was previously no way to return focus to the last
accessed *tab*. Here, that ability is added via n_g<tab>.
Additionally, the index of the previous tab is exposed via
tabpagenr('#'), mirroring the existing functionality of winnr('#').
Problem: Not possible to hide a balloon.
Solution: Hide the balloon when balloon_show() is called with an empty
string or list. Add balloon_gettext().
be0a2597ae
Problem: Cannot get the window id associated with the location list.
Solution: Add the "filewinid" argument to getloclist(). (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3202)

Solution: Require the marker does not start with a lower case character.
(closesvim/vim#4705)
2458200729
Problem: :let-heredoc does not trim enough.
Solution: Trim indent from the contents based on the indent of the first
line. Use let-heredoc in more tests.
e7eb92708e
Problem: ":write" increments b:changedtick even though nothing changed.
(Daniel Hahler)
Solution: Only increment b:changedtick if the modified flag is reset.
c024b46678
Problem: Cannot get the script line number when executing a function.
Solution: Store the line number besides the script ID. (Ozaki Kiichi,
closesvim/vim#3362) Also display the line number with ":verbose set".
f29c1c6aa3
Problem: If a job exits while waiting on another job, the on_exit
handler is queued but f_jobwait() skips it.
Solution: Always do process_wait(), so that handlers are run during
f_jobwait().

Problem: json_encode() does not handle NaN and inf properly. (David
Barnett)
Solution: For JSON turn them into "null". For JS use "NaN" and "Infinity".
Add isnan().

Solution: Add setbufline(). (Yasuhiro Matsumoto, Ozaki Kiichi, closesvim/vim#1953)
b31cf2bb0b
Problem: Cannot tell whether a register is being used for executing or
recording.
Solution: Add reg_executing() and reg_recording(). (Hirohito Higashi,

Solution: List signs for all buffers when there is no buffer argument.
Fix error message for invalid buffer name in sign_place().
(Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3774)
b589f95b38
Problem: ":sign place" requires the buffer argument.
Solution: Make the argument optional. Also update the help and clean up the
sign test. (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3767)
b328cca254
Problem: Placing signs can be complicated.
Solution: Add functions for defining and placing signs. Introduce a group
name to avoid different plugins using the same signs. (Yegappan
Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#3652)
162b71479b
Problem: Getting the jump list requires parsing the output of :jumps.
Solution: Add getjumplist(). (Yegappan Lakshmanan, closesvim/vim#2609)
4f50588ba3
Problem: No simple way to label quickfix entries.
Solution: Add the "module" item, to be used instead of the file name for
display purposes. (Martin Szamotulski)

Problem: It is not so easy to write a script that works with both Python 2 and Python 3, even when the Python code works with both.
Solution: Add 'pyxversion', :pyx, etc. (Marc Weber, Ken Takata)

Before this commit, if user does this:
let g:node_host_prog = '~/.nvm/versions/node/v11.3.0/bin/neovim-node-host'
the "~/" is not expanded to user's home directory.
`:help g:ruby_host_prog` suggests a path with "~/" so technically we
already claimed to support this.

Solution: Make the buffer argument work for all marks local to a buffer.
(neovim vim/vim#5713) Add more tests.

children_kill_cb() is racey. One obvious problem is that
process_close_handles() is *queued* by on_process_exit(), so when
children_kill_cb() is invoked, the dead process might still be in the
`loop->children` list. If the OS already reclaimed the dead PID, Nvim
may try to SIGKILL it.
Avoid that by checking `proc->status`.
Vim doesn't have this problem because it doesn't attempt to kill
processes that ignored SIGTERM after a timeout.
