Previously it used a width of >= 80 to display the long word count
format. However I personally found that a bit too wide, while other
sections will be shortened too much which does not really look nice.
Therefore, adjust the limit a bit, using the short word count format for
windows up to 85 characters.
This is an experimental feature that allows to display the statusline in
the tabline. It might still be a bit rough, but seems to work so far.
Remaining problem:
- Mode changes are not immediately detected, only after moving the
cursor
fixes#1388closes#1867
Compatibility:
- Don't use a script-local function to update the format strings
- Protect against `:normal!' moving the cursor on on the wordcount check
Bugfix:
- Let to_string() try to return something for all values
- Now returns correctly when passed both 0 and '0'
Upkeep:
- Simplify check again no valid key from winwidth()
- Old wordcount check: use matchstr() - more expressive and fewer steps
- Improve documentation style/clarity/detail
This prevents a warning message, when the function is tried to add
several times. Also while at it, add a '!' so that no error is thrown if
the file is sourced a second times.
Currently the formatter, and not the wordcount plugin, is responsible
for providing the wordcount as well as formatting it. The default
formatter allows visual mode word counting, although this is not
documented.
The new interface - a transform() function, allows the main wordcount
plugin to internalise this logic. Providing the wordcount simplifies
formatter implementations:
- All formatters can display the visual wordcount.
- Formatters do not have to worry about compatibility with different
vim versions.
The old format() function can now be deprecated, although the wordcount
plugin retains compatibility with formatters using it. The default
formatter will also be used as a fallback if no suitable function is
found.
The default formatter is rewritten to use the new interface.
1) allow for custom formatting of the output of the wordcount formatter
This allows for formatting numbers correctly e.g. 1,042 in English
locale and 1.042 in German locale.
2) cache values, so that no on every cursor move the wordcount needs to
be recalculated.
