feat: add preview functionality to user commands

2022-05-31T14:55:05+00:00

Adds a Lua-only `preview` flag to user commands which allows the command to be incrementally previewed like `:substitute` when 'inccommand' is set.

vim-patch:8.1.1241: Ex command info contains confusing information

2021-01-01T09:30:55+00:00

Problem:    Ex command info contains confusing information.
Solution:   When using the NOTADR flag use ADDR_OTHER for the address type.
            Cleanup code using NOTADR.  Check for errors in
            create_cmdidxs.vim.  Adjust Makefile to see the errors.
https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/b731689e85b4153af7edc8f0a6b9f99d36d8b011

Use Lua's "assert()" to make an invalid command definition
a compilation error.

Misc changes:

Remove 'RESTRICT' flag.
Neovim does not support "restricted" mode
since commit 7777532cebcfa9abc5ab2c7beae77f386feed3ca.

TODO:
Do not generate files before Lua assertions
so that CMake always runs the generator script
if the previous build has an invalid command definition.

ex_cmds: port cmd_addr_T and ADDR_NONE (#13492)

2020-12-11T00:48:18+00:00

Patch 8.1.1241 is too hard to port in 1 commit.
https://github.com/neovim/neovim/pull/13079 is too hard to review
and seems to be blocked.

Use 'int' type for some  addr variables to suppress 'switch/case' warnings.

gen_ex_cmds: simplify writes to defsfile (#13096)

2020-10-15T23:07:54+00:00

defsfile:write() is executed multiple times to append strings.
Some of these can be combined into a format string, wrapped in [[]].
It is easier to read and insert strings via "%s".

defsfile now has a trailing comma for "cmdnames" array
but it does not break the build.

vim-patch:8.0.0572: building the command table requires Perl
