neovim/runtime/lua/vim/_buf.lua, branch master Vim-fork focused on extensibility and usability http://git.waynecole.info/neovim/atom?h=master 2025-12-30T06:44:24Z build: ship "_core/*" as bytecode (built-into Nvim binary) 2025-12-30T06:44:24Z Justin M. Keyes justinkz@gmail.com 2025-08-29T03:43:10Z urn:sha1:20e77c5d886af54d1f7b6844cffc11129f579ad9 Problem: We want to encourage implementing core features in Lua instead of C, but it's clumsy because: - Core Lua code (built into `nvim` so it is available even if VIMRUNTIME is missing/invalid) requires manually updating CMakeLists.txt, or stuffing it into `_editor.lua`. - Core Lua modules are not organized similar to C modules, `_editor.lua` is getting too big. Solution: - Introduce `_core/` where core Lua code can live. All Lua modules added there will automatically be included as bytecode in the `nvim` binary. - Move these core modules into `_core/*`: ``` _defaults.lua _editor.lua _options.lua _system.lua shared.lua ``` TODO: - Move `_extui/ => _core/ui2/` feat(defaults): dot-repeat [<Space> #31186 2024-11-17T21:31:24Z Peter Aronoff peter@aronoff.org 2024-11-17T21:31:24Z urn:sha1:cc6992f1ca443f4da01cb4d57159d4cef37b36b7 Problem: `[<Space>` and `]<Space>` do not support repetition. Solution: use `operatorfunc` and `g@l` to make these mappings dot repeatable.
