ViM 8.2

Vim text editor version 8.2 has been released. One of the main features of this release is the long-awaited support for pop-ups (including plugins).

In the list of other innovations:

  • Dictionaries with the ability to use literal keys: let options = #{width: 30, height: 24}
  • The const command, which is used to declare immutable variables, for example: const TIMER_DELAY = 400.
  • It is possible to use block syntax to assign text from multiple lines to variables.
    let lines =<< trim END
    line one
    line two
    END
  • Ability to chain function calls by type:
    mylist->filter(filterexpr)->map(mapexpr)->sort()->join()
  • The xdiff library is used to improve the representation of differences in texts.
  • Several changes that improve the use of Vim under OS family Windows: translation support for installation file, ConPTY support.
