1 List of suggested new features:
3 + Add "set searchdir" for a list of directories to look in for
4 files to edit. The semantic is that ":e foo" is replaced with
5 the file name that is found, so there's no confusion as to
9 :di[splay] tags -> :tags
10 :di[splay] screens -> :screens
11 :di[splay] buffers -> :buffers
13 + A macro record function. Add the ability to record a sequence
14 of keystrokes into a named buffer for later use. Handy when
15 you're trying to build a semi-complex macro.
17 + Put multiple messages on a single line if they fit in their entirety,
18 so that ":n" with autowrite set doesn't force users to hit return to
19 get see both the "written" and "new file status" messages.
21 + The semantics of :split, :bg, and :fg aren't right. Someone needs to
22 rethink how they should interact. The main problem arises when users
23 want to get a window into a new file. Currently, the necessary sequence
24 is ":split newfile|^W|:bg". It would be nice if you could simply
25 background the current screen and edit a new one.
