* feat(server): serverlist({info=true}) gets detailed info #39392Szymon Wilczek2026-05-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: UI tools and orchestration engines need more context than just raw socket addresses from serverlist(). Without knowing if a server belongs to the current instance or knowing its PID, UIs cannot display meaningful options to users. Solution: - Added the `info=v:true` option to `serverlist()`. - When `info` is requested, it implies `peer=true` and returns a list of dictionaries (defined as `vim.ServerInfo`) with `addr`, `pid` and `own`. - Uses an RPC request to `getpid()` across the socket to fetch the peer's actual process ID.

* perf(vim.fn): call Lua-implemented vim.fn.xx() directly #39166Justin M. Keyes2026-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: - Builtin "Vimscript" functions (f_xx) are mostly implemented in C. Partly that's because there is some boilerplate required to call out to Lua. - Calls to `vim.fn.foo()` always marshall over the Lua <=> Vimscript ("typval") bridge, even if `fn.foo()` is implemented entirely in Lua: ``` Lua => typval => Object => Lua => Object => typval => Lua. ``` Solution: Functions declared in eval.lua with `func_lua` are implemented in entirely in Lua (`_core/vimfn.lua`). - `gen_eval.lua` wires `func_lua` entries to `lua_wrapper`, which handles the typval conversion for Vimscript callers (slow path). - `nlua_call()` detects `func_lua` functions and calls the Lua implementation directly. This eliminates all conversion overhead for Lua callers (fast path). - Validate at build-time that `func`, `func_float`, and `func_lua` are mutually exclusive. - Migrate `hostname()` as a toy example, to show the idea.
* vim-patch:8.2.2440: documentation based on patches is outdated (#39144)zeertzjq2026-04-17
| | | | | | | | | | | Problem: Documentation based on patches is outdated. Solution: Add changes to documentation in a patch. https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/853886722c051ecaef6d818ce32a822e4f43dc2b Trailing space was removed in later patches. Also fix a few more misplaced error numbers from #8155. Co-authored-by: Bram Moolenaar <Bram@vim.org>

* feat(prompt): prompt_appendbuf() appends to prompt buffer #37763Shadman2026-03-27
| | | | | | | | | | | Problem: Currently, we recommend always inserting text above prompt-line in prompt-buffer. This can be done using the `:` mark. However, although we recommend it this way it can sometimes get confusing how to do it best. Solution: Provide an api to append text to prompt buffer. This is a common use-case for things using prompt-buffer.

* feat(vimscript): scripts can detect 'android', 'termux' #38218TomIO2026-03-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: The 'android' and 'termux' feature flags have been shipped in the downstream neovim/neovim-nightly package for 5+ years but were never properly documented in the downstream patch. Solution: Upstream the 'android' and 'termux' feature flags into Neovim as decoupled feature flags, this enables the 'android' feature in particular to be available independently of the 'termux' feature for builds of Neovim against the Android NDK, but not including the Termux NDK patchset.

* feat(highlight): support more SGR attributes #37901Riccardo Mazzarini2026-02-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: TUI does not support several standard SGR text attributes: - dim/faint (SGR 2) - blink (SGR 5) - conceal (SGR 8) - overline (SGR 53) This means that when a program running in the embedded terminal emits one of these escape codes, we drop it and don't surface it to the outer terminal. Solution: - Add support for those attributes. - Also add corresponding flags to `nvim_set_hl` opts, so users can set these attributes in highlight groups. - refactor(highlight): widen `HlAttrFlags` from `int16_t` to `int32_t` Widen the `rgb_ae_attr` and `cterm_ae_attr` fields in HlAttrs from int16_t to int32_t to make room for new highlight attribute flags, since there was only one spare bit left. - The C flag is named HL_CONCEALED to avoid colliding with the existing HL_CONCEAL in syntax.h (which is a syntax group flag, not an SGR attribute). - Also note that libvterm doesn't currently support the dim and overline attributes, so e.g. `printf '\e[2mThis should be dim\n'` and `printf '\e[53mThis should have an overline\n'` are still not rendered correctly when run from the embedded terminal.

* docs(eval): fix fn.strchar types #37737Mike J McGuirk2026-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: The following strchar functions have incorrect types: strcharlen() - Currently any. Always returns an integer, including on error strcharpart() - The skipcc annotation does not specify that 0 and 1 are valid. These inputs are required for vimscript usage. The current return type is any, even though the function returns an empty string on error strchars() - The skipcc annotation does not specify that 0 and 1 are valid Solution: Update the problem types.
* docs(eval): correct types for getcharsearch, setcharsearch #37734Mike J McGuirk2026-02-08
| | | | | | | | | Problem: In eval.lua, setcharsearch() has an incorrect param type, causing Lua_Ls to display an error when a valid table is passed. While getcharsearch correctly states that it returns a table, the type is non-specific about the contents. Solution: Update eval.lua with the correct types.

* vim-patch:9.1.1948: Windows: Vim adds current directory to search pathzeertzjq2025-12-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: Windows: Vim always adds the current directory to search path. This should only happen when using cmd.exe as 'shell'. For example, powershell won't run binaries from the current directory.

* vim-patch:9.1.1933: completion: complete_match() is not useful (#36726)zeertzjq2025-11-28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Problem: completion: complete_match() Vim script function and 'isexpand' option are not that useful and confusing (after v9.1.1341) Solution: Remove function and option and clean up code and documentation (Girish Palya). complete_match() and 'isexpand' add no real functionality to Vim. They duplicate what `strridx()` already does, yet pretend to be part of the completion system. They have nothing to do with the completion mechanism. * `f_complete_match()` in `insexpand.c` does not call any completion code. It’s just a `STRNCMP()` wrapper with fluff logic. * `'isexpand'` exists only as a proxy argument to that function. It does nothing on its own and amounts to misuse of a new option. The following Vim script function can be used to implement the same functionality: ```vim func CompleteMatch(triggers, sep=',') let line = getline('.')->strpart(0, col('.') - 1) let result = [] for trig in split(a:triggers, a:sep) let idx = strridx(line, trig) if l:idx >= 0 call add(result, [idx + 1, trig]) endif endfor return result endfunc ``` related: vim/vim#16716 fixes: vim/vim#18563 closes: vim/vim#18790 https://github.com/vim/vim/commit/cbcbff871224115c45bbd14582749a487c6fad30 Co-authored-by: Girish Palya <girishji@gmail.com>
