complete file paths with env var's

[Konfekt]

For example, :edit $VIMRUNTIME does not complete

[girishji]

Should be fixed now.

[Konfekt]

Somehow it still appends the whole expanded path after $VIMRUNTIME

Tested with

set nocompatible
let $LANGUAGE='en_US.utf-8'


let &rtp = '~/.vim/plugged/vimsuggest/' . ',' . &rtp

filetype plugin indent on
syntax on

and Vim 9.1.840

[Konfekt]

Though the screenshot only shows $VIM, it is the same after $VIMRUNTIME

[girishji]

I tested this scenario and it is working for me. Can you make sure you get 0 when you type :echo 'edit $VIM' !~ '\$'?

[Konfekt]

Yes, I get 0. However, it's patch level 892, not 840

[Konfekt]

I type :e $VIMRUNTIME/<tab> and out comes /usr/... replacing <tab>

[girishji]

I am at patch 850. Do you have this line (file autoload/vimsuggest/cmd.vim) ?

[Konfekt]

Yankcode gives me

#  autoload/vimsuggest/cmd.vim (line 201)
if options.wildignore && cmdstr =~# $'^\s*{cmdpat}\s' && cmdstr !~ '\$'

[girishji]

This sounds impossible. Can you do echo getcompletion('e $VIM', 'cmdline') and see what it prints?

[Konfekt]

~
['VIM', 'VIMRUNTIME']

[Konfekt]

The screenshot was by mistake. The same behavior after completing $VIMRUNTIME

[girishji]

All of this defies logic. Can you put a echom 'here' after the if statement in line 201 above, and see if it gets printed (:messages) when you run your use case? Or, maybe you can attach the whole cmd.vim file and I can look into it.

[Konfekt]

cmd.zip

Of course. I just reproduced on Debian 12 (after Ubuntu 22.04)

[Konfekt]

The here is not shown.

[girishji]

Sorry for late response. Pl. try now.

[Konfekt]

Thank you!
