Lua module: vim *lua-vim*
-gsplit({s}, {sep}, {plain}) *vim.gsplit()*
- Split a string by a given separator. The separator can be a
- lua pattern, see [1]. Used by |vim.split()|, see there for
- some examples. See [2] for usage of the plain parameter.

+trim({s}) *vim.trim()*
+ Trim whitespace (Lua pattern "%%s") from both sides of a
+ string.
Parameters: ~
- {s} String The string to split
- {sep} String The separator to use
- {plain} Boolean If `true` , use the separator literally
- (passed as an argument to String.find)
+ {s} String to trim
Return: ~
- An iterator over the split components
+ String with whitespace removed from its beginning and end
-split({s}, {sep}, {plain}) *vim.split()*
- Split a string by a given separator.
+ See also: ~
+ https://www.lua.org/pil/20.2.html
- Examples: >
- split(":aa::b:", ":") --> {'','aa','','bb',''}
- split("axaby", "ab?") --> {'','x','y'}
- split(x*yz*o, "*", true) --> {'x','yz','o'}
-<
+
+
+deepcopy({orig}) *vim.deepcopy()*
+ Returns a deep copy of the given object. Non-table objects are
+ copied as in a typical Lua assignment, whereas table objects
+ are copied recursively.
Parameters: ~
- {s} String The string to split
- {sep} String The separator to use (see |vim.gsplit()|)
- {plain} Boolean If `true` , use the separator literally
- (see |vim.gsplit()|)
+ {orig} Table to copy
Return: ~
- An array containing the components of the split.
-
-trim({s}) *vim.trim()*
- Trim the whitespaces from a string. A whitespace is everything
- that matches the lua pattern '%s', see
+ New table of copied keys and (nested) values.
- https://www.lua.org/pil/20.2.html
+gsplit({s}, {sep}, {plain}) *vim.gsplit()*
+ Splits a string at each instance of a separator.
Parameters: ~
- {s} String The string to trim
+ {s} String to split
+ {sep} Separator string or pattern
+ {plain} If `true` use `sep` literally (passed to
+ String.find)
Return: ~
- The string with all whitespaces trimmed from its beginning
- and end
-
+ Iterator over the split components
+ See also: ~

Parameters: ~
- {orig} Table to copy
+ {s} String to split
+ {sep} Separator string or pattern
+ {plain} If `true` use `sep` literally (passed to

Return: ~
- New table of copied keys and (nested) values.
+ List-like table of the split components.

+ See also: ~
+ |vim.gsplit()|
tbl_contains({t}, {value}) *vim.tbl_contains()*
Checks if a list-like (vector) table contains `value` .
