	Although powerful -- especially with chained modifiers --, the readability (and therefore maintainability) of `fnamemodify()` and its modifiers is often worse than a function name, giving less context and having to rely on `:h filename-modifiers`. However, it is used plenty in the Lua stdlib: - 16x for the basename: `fnamemodify(path, ':t')` - 7x for the parents: `fnamemodify(path, ':h')` - 7x for the stem (filename w/o extension): `fnamemodify(path, ':r')` - 6x for the absolute path: `fnamemodify(path, ':p')` - 2x for the suffix: `fnamemodify(path, ':e')` - 2x relative to the home directory: `fnamemodify(path, ':~')` - 1x relative to the cwd: `fnamemodify(path, ':.')` The `fs` module in the stdlib provides a cleaner interface for most of these path operations: `vim.fs.basename` instead of `':t'`, `vim.fs.dirname` instead of `':h'`, `vim.fs.abspath` instead of `':p'`. This commit refactors the runtime to use these instead of fnamemodify. Not all fnamemodify calls are removed; some have intrinsic differences in behavior with the `vim.fs` replacement or do not yet have a replacement in the Lua module, i.e. `:~`, `:.`, `:e` and `:r`.

2025-11-09	refactor(spellfile): config() interface, docs #36481	Yochem van Rosmalen	1
	Problem: - Exposing the raw config as table is a pattern not seen anywhere else in the Nvim codebase. - Old spellfile.vim docs still available, no new documentation Solution: - Exposing a `config()` function that both acts as "getter" and "setter" is a much more common idiom (e.g. vim.lsp, vim.diagnostic). - Add new documentation and link old docs to \|spellfile.lua\| instead of \|spellfile.vim\|.
2025-10-26	refactor(spell): cleanup	Justin M. Keyes	1
	- prefer `stdpath(data)/site/spell` instead of looking for random dirs in 'runtimepath'. - drop unused functions `choose_directory`, `setup`, etc.
2025-10-26	refactor(spell): migrate to Lua, drop netrw dependency	Tom Ampuero	1
	Problem: Spell file downloads relied on Vimscript and netrw (:Nread). If netrw is disabled, downloads fail. Solution: Port the logic to Lua as `nvim.spellfile` and wire it via a Lua plugin that handles `SpellFileMissing`. Use `vim.net.request()` with a timeout for HTTP, prompt via `vim.fn.input` and report via `vim.notify`. Closes #7189
