- Highlight function is called at least once for each new

- expected that function is pure for the duration of one input()
- call, i.e. it produces the same output for the same input, so
- output may be memoized. Function is run like under |:silent|
- modifier, additionally any errors from function cause it to be
- no longer executed for the duration of the current input()
- call.
