feat(userregfunc): programmable user-defined registers with multibyte support
This patch introduces a new global option `userregfunc`, allowing users
to define custom behavior for registers not handled by Neovim
internally. This enables programmable registers using any Unicode
character — including multibyte characters.
- A new register slot `USER_REGISTER` is introduced. Any register not
matching the standard set (`0-9a-zA-Z"+-*%#/:.=`, etc.) is routed
through this system.
- When such a register is accessed, the function defined in
`userregfunc` is called with three arguments:
1. `{action}` (string): either `"yank"` or `"put"`
2. `{register}` (string): UTF-8 character name of the register
3. `{content}`:
- If `action == "yank"`: a dictionary with these keys:
- `lines` (list of strings): the yanked text
- `type` (string): one of `"v"` (charwise), `"V"` (linewise), or `"b"` (blockwise)
- `width` (number, optional): present if `type == "b"`
- `additional_data` (dict, optional): user-extensible metadata
- If `action == "put"`: this is always `v:null`
- The function may return either:
- A **string** (used as a charwise register), or
- A **dictionary** matching the structure above
- Internally, `read_userregister()` and `write_userregister()` convert
between `yankreg_T` and typval dictionaries.
- Messages and internal logic fully support multibyte register names via
UTF-8.
- A new `USER_REGISTER` slot is used for logical separation in the
register table.
Included in this patch is an extensible Lua framework (`vim.userregs`)
for defining user register handlers in Lua. It provides per-register
handlers via `register_handler(registers, handler)`
The global function `_G.def_userreg_func` is registered as the default
implementation of `'userregfunc'`, enabling seamless integration with
the Lua framework.
- Register `λ` dynamically inserts the current date
- Register `&` reads and writes from a "global register" file under
`stdpath("run")`
- Register `?` returns the result of a shell command
- Registers that auto-adjust based on filetype, cursor context, or
Treesitter nodes
This change expands the register model into a programmable abstraction —
fully scriptable and extensible — without breaking compatibility.
