| Summary | 0001251: ex(1): formatting issues in command arguments | ||||
| Description | Many of the commands in the ex section are missing spaces between their arguments. This is confusing as spaces are allowed and often required. The grouping of the substitute command seems to disallow calling it with only options, count or flags. The ! command also mentions addr instead of 2addr which seems like a mistake. | ||||
| Desired Action | Implement the following changes. Headings are page numbers. Lines shown are the before and after. Space changes: -- 2713 88687 Synopsis: ab[breviate][lhs rhs] 88687 Synopsis: ab[breviate] [lhs rhs] -- 2714 88731 Synopsis: [2addr] c[hange][!][count] 88731 Synopsis: [2addr] c[hange][!] [count] 88742 Synopsis: chd[ir][!][directory] 88742 Synopsis: chd[ir][!] [directory] 88743 cd[!][directory] 88743 cd[!] [directory] -- 2715 88761 Synopsis: [2addr] d[elete][buffer][count][flags] 88761 Synopsis: [2addr] d[elete] [buffer] [count] [flags] 88770 Synopsis: e[dit][!][+command][file] 88770 Synopsis: e[dit][!] [+command] [file] 88771 ex[!][+command][file] 88771 ex[!] [+command] [file] -- 2716 88802 Synopsis: f[ile][file] 88802 Synopsis: f[ile] [file] -- 2717 88864 Synopsis: [2addr] j[oin][!][count][flags] 88864 Synopsis: [2addr] j[oin][!] [count] [flags] -- 2718 88896 Synopsis: [2addr] l[ist][count][flags] 88896 Synopsis: [2addr] l[ist] [count] [flags] 88898 [2addr] p[rint][count] l[flags] 88898 [2addr] p[rint] [count] l[flags] 88901 Synopsis: map[!][lhs rhs] 88901 Synopsis: map[!] [lhs rhs] -- 2721 88999 Synopsis: n[ext][!][+command][file ...] 88999 Synopsis: n[ext][!] [+command] [file ...] -- 2722 89023 Synopsis: [2addr] nu[mber][count][flags] 89023 Synopsis: [2addr] nu[mber] [count] [flags] 89024 [2addr] #[count][flags] 89024 [2addr] # [count] [flags] 89026 [2addr] p[rint][count] #[flags] 89026 [2addr] p[rint] [count] #[flags] 89051 Synopsis: [2addr] p[rint][count][flags] 89051 Synopsis: [2addr] p[rint] [count] [flags] -- 2723 89074 Synopsis: [1addr] pu[t][buffer] 89074 Synopsis: [1addr] pu[t] [buffer] 89089 Synopsis: [1addr] r[ead][!][file] 89089 Synopsis: [1addr] r[ead][!] [file] -- 2725 89144 Synopsis: se[t][option[=[value]] ...][nooption ...][option? ...][all] 89144 Synopsis: se[t] [option[=[value]] ...] [nooption ...] [option? ...] [all] -- 2729 89288 Synopsis: [1addr] vi[sual][type][count][flags] 89288 Synopsis: [1addr] vi[sual] [type] [count] [flags] 89309 Synopsis: [2addr] w[rite][!][>>][file] 89309 Synopsis: [2addr] w[rite][!] [>>] [file] 89310 [2addr] w[rite][!][file] 89310 [2addr] w[rite][!] [file] 89311 [2addr] wq[!][>>][file] 89311 [2addr] wq[!] [>>] [file] -- 2730 89352 Synopsis: [2addr] x[it][!][file] 89352 Synopsis: [2addr] x[it][!] [file] -- 2731 89360 Synopsis: [2addr] ya[nk][buffer][count] 89360 Synopsis: [2addr] ya[nk] [buffer] [count] 89366 Synopsis: [1addr] z[!][type ...][count][flags] 89366 Synopsis: [1addr] z[!] [type ...] [count] [flags] -- 2733 89444 Synopsis: [2addr] <[< ...][count][flags] 89444 Synopsis: [2addr] <[< ...] [count] [flags] 89455 Synopsis: [2addr] >[> ...][count][flags] 89455 Synopsis: [2addr] >[> ...] [count] [flags] Space + other changes: -- 2725 89171 Synopsis: [2addr] s[ubstitute][/pattern/repl/[options][count][flags]] 89171 Synopsis: [2addr] s[ubstitute] [/pattern/repl/] [options] [count] [flags] 89172 [2addr] &[options][count][flags]] 89172 [2addr] & [options] [count] [flags] 89173 [2addr] ~[options][count][flags]] 89173 [2addr] ~ [options] [count] [flags] -- 2732 89414 [addr]! command 89414 [2addr] ! command | ||||

I don't think the line 89171-3 changes are correct. There are no spaces needed in: s/pat/repl/g &g ~g so I think the changes should be: 89171 Synopsis: [2addr] s[ubstitute][/pattern/repl/[options][count][flags]] 89171 Synopsis: [2addr] s[ubstitute][/pattern/repl/][options] [count] [flags] 89172 [2addr] &[options][count][flags]] 89172 [2addr] &[options] [count] [flags] 89173 [2addr] ~[options][count][flags]] 89173 [2addr] ~[options] [count] [flags] |

Having read through the description of command line parsing on P2705-2708 and particularly the paragraph starting at P2707 L88471, I believe the only changes needed are: Space changes: -- 2715 88761 Synopsis: [2addr] d[elete][buffer][count][flags] 88761 Synopsis: [2addr] d[elete][ buffer][count][flags] -- 2723 89074 Synopsis: [1addr] pu[t][buffer] 89074 Synopsis: [1addr] pu[t][ buffer] -- 2725 89144 Synopsis: se[t][option[=[value]] ...][nooption ...][option? ...][all] 89144 Synopsis: se[t][ option[=[value]]]...[ nooption]...[ option?]...[ all] Add after line 89155 "Arguments can appear in any order and shall be processed in the specified order." -- 2731 89360 Synopsis: [2addr] ya[nk][buffer][count] 89360 Synopsis: [2addr] ya[nk][ buffer][count] Space + other changes: -- 2725 89171 Synopsis: [2addr] s[ubstitute][/pattern/repl/[options][count][flags]] 89171 Synopsis: [2addr] s[ubstitute][/pattern/repl/][options][count][flags] 89173 [2addr] ~[options][count][flags]] 89173 [2addr] ~[options][count][flags] -- 2732 89414 [addr]! command 89414 [2addr] ! command |
