+interrupt() *interrupt()*
+ Interrupt script execution. It works more or less like the
+ user typing CTRL-C, most commands won't execute and control
+ returns to the user. This is useful to abort execution
+ from lower down, e.g. in an autocommand. Example: >
+ :function s:check_typoname(file)
+ : if fnamemodify(a:file, ':t') == '['
+ : echomsg 'Maybe typo'
+ : call interrupt()

invert({expr}) *invert()*
Bitwise invert. The argument is converted to a number. A
List, Dict or Float argument causes an error. Example: >
