"  Tom Ryder (tejr)’s Literate Vimrc
" ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"
" Last updated: Sun, 03 May 2020 03:44:03 UTC
"
" │ And I was lifted up in heart, and thought
" │ Of all my late-shown prowess in the lists,
" │ How my strong lance had beaten down the knights,
" │ So many and famous names; and never yet
" │ Had heaven appeared so blue, nor earth so green,
" │ For all my blood danced in me, and I knew
" │ That I should light upon the Holy Grail.
" │
" │     —Tennyson
"
" This file is an attempt at something like a “literate vimrc”, in the
" tradition of Donald Knuth’s “literate programming”:
" <http://www.literateprogramming.com/>
"
" The dotfiles project that comprises it is maintained here:
" <https://sanctum.geek.nz/cgit/dotfiles.git>
"
" This is a long file, and comments abound within.  Should this be bothersome,
" one could execute this command in Vim itself to strip out all lines either
" blank or comprising solely comments:
"
"     :g/\m^$\|^\s*"/d
"
" This file should be saved as ‘vimrc’—no leading period—in the user runtime
" directory.  On Unix-like operating systems, hereinafter referred to as
" “*nix”, that directory is ‘~/.vim’; on Windows, it’s ‘~/vimfiles’.
" Fortunately, those are the only two kinds of operating systems that exist,
" anywhere in the world.
"
" It requires Vim v7.0.0 or newer, with the +eval feature, and the
" 'compatible' option turned off, chiefly to allow line continuations.  The
" vimrc stub at ~/.vimrc (Unix) or ~/_vimrc (Windows) should check that these
" conditions are met before loading this file with ‘:runtime vimrc’.
"
" All of this should survive a pass of the Vim script linter Vint with no
" errors, warnings, or style problems: <https://github.com/Kuniwak/vint>
"

" We’ll begin by making sure that we and Vim are speaking the same language.
" Since it’s been the future for a few years now, this file has characters
" outside the ASCII character set, which prompts Vint to suggest declaring the
" file encoding with a :scriptencoding command.  The :help for that command
" specifies that this should be done after 'encoding' is set, so we’ll do that
" here, too.
"
" On *nix, I define the primary locale environment variable $LANG, almost
" always specifying a multi-byte locale.  This informs Vim’s choice of
" internal character encoding, but the default for the 'encoding' option in
" the absence of a valid $LANG is ‘latin1’.  Since this is almost never what
" I want, we’ll manually choose the UTF-8 encoding for Unicode in the absence
" of any other explicit specification.
"
if &encoding ==# 'latin1' && !exists('$LANG')
  set encoding=utf-8
endif
scriptencoding utf-8

" With encoding handled, we’ll turn our attention to the value of the
" 'runtimepath' option, since any scripts loaded from the paths specified
" therein control so much of the behavior of Vim.  I’d like to do this as
" accurately as possible, even with Vim’s unusual behavior around escaping of
" these variables.  One of the first things we’ll need to be able to do is
" split the value of 'runtimepath' into its constituent path parts.
"
" Splitting the values of comma-separated options correctly is surprisingly
" complicated.  The list separator for such options is more accurately defined
" as follows:
"
" │ A comma not preceded by a backslash, and possibly followed by an arbitrary
" │ number of spaces and commas.
"
" The pattern required for the split breaks down like this:
"
"   \\     ← Literal backslash
"   \@<!   ← Negative lookbehind assertion; means that whatever occurred
"            before this pattern, here a backslash, cannot precede what
"            follows, but anything that does precede it is not removed from
"            the data as part of the split delimiter
"   ,      ← Literal comma
"   [, ]*  ← Any number of commas and spaces
"
" We don’t, however, have to deal with backslashes before other backslashes,
" nor before any other character.  You can read the source code for the ad-hoc
" tokenizer in copy_option_part() in src/misc2.c in Vim’s source code, and
" test it with some values of your own, if you want to understand why.  Vim,
" I love you, but you are really weird sometimes.
"
" We do all this with an autoloaded function option#Split().
"
" We define an environment variable for ~/.vim or ~/vimfiles, by retrieving
" the first value from the 'runtimepath', correctly split.
"
if &runtimepath !=# ''
  let $MYVIM = option#Split(&runtimepath)[0]
endif

" We'll use the XDG directories as machine-local configuration and storage.
" <https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html#variables>
"
" Add all the configuration directories to 'runtimepath', including "after"
" directories to the end of it, in reverse order, forming the desired layers
" of configuration.
"
let s:xdgconfigpaths = copy(xdg#['config']['dirs'])
if xdg#['config']['home'] !=# ''
  call insert(s:xdgconfigpaths, xdg#['config']['home'])
endif
if !empty(s:xdgconfigpaths)
  execute 'set runtimepath^='.option#Escape(join(map(
        \ s:xdgconfigpaths, 'option#item#Escape(v:val)'
        \), ','))
  execute 'set runtimepath+='.option#Escape(join(map(
        \ reverse(s:xdgconfigpaths), 'option#item#Escape(v:val."/after")'
        \), ','))
endif
unlet s:xdgconfigpaths

" Now put the XDG cache home at the very front, so that e.g. 'spellfile' gets
" created in there rather than in the configuration directories.
"
if xdg#['cache']['home'] !=# ''
  execute 'set runtimepath^='.option#Escape(
        \ option#item#Escape(xdg#['cache']['home'])
        \)
endif

" We need a command to reliably establish a full path, whether or not the
" directories already exist.  We create a wrapper for the autoloaded function
" path#Create() with similar calling conventions to mkdir(), but with the ‘p’
" value for the second parameter {prot} forced on.  Calling it with a bang
" like :CreatePath! creates a private directory (permissions 0700).
"
command! -bang -bar -complete=dir -nargs=1 CreatePath
      \ call path#Create(expand(<q-args>), <q-bang> ==# '!')

" Now that we have a way to create directories if they don’t already exist,
" let’s apply it for the first time to the user runtime directory.  Note that
" we aren’t checking whether this actually succeeded.  We do want errors
" raised if there were problems with the creation, but we’ll barrel on ahead
" regardless after warning the user about our failure.
"
" Using a logical but non-default location for viminfo has the nice benefit of
" preventing command and search history from getting clobbered when something
" runs Vim without using this vimrc, because such an instance will safely
" write its own history to the default viminfo path instead.
"
" This is the portable way to specify the path to the viminfo file, as an
" addendum of the path to the 'viminfo' option with an ‘n’ prefix.  Vim
" v8.1.716 introduced a way to set this with an option named 'viminfofile',
" but I don't see a reason to use that.
"
if xdg#['cache']['home'] !=# '' && path#Create(xdg#['cache']['home'])
  execute 'set viminfo+='.option#Escape(
        \ 'n'.xdg#['cache']['home'].'/viminfo'
        \)
endif

" Speaking of recorded data in viminfo files, the default Vim limit of a mere
" 50 entries for command and search history is pretty stingy.  Because I don’t
" think I’m ever likely to be in a situation where remembering several
" thousand Vim commands and search patterns is going to severely tax memory,
" let alone disk space, I’d rather this limit were much higher.  It’s
" sometimes really handy to dig up commands from many days ago.
"
" The maximum value for the 'history' option is documented in ‘:help
" 'history'’ as 10000, so let’s just use that, and see if anything breaks.
"
set history=10000

" We’ll now enable automatic backups of most file buffers, since that’s off by
" default.  In practice, I don’t need these backups very much, at least if I’m
" using version control sensibly, but they have still saved my bacon a few
" times.
"
" We’ll try to keep the backup files in a dedicated cache directory, to stop
" them popping up next to the file to which they correspond, and getting
" accidentally committed to version control.
"
" If Vim is new enough, we’ll add two trailing slashes to the path we’re
" inserting, which prompts Vim to incorporate the full escaped path of the
" relevant buffer in the backup filename, avoiding collisions.
"
" As a historical note, other similar directory path list options supported
" this trailing slashes hint for a long time before 'backupdir' caught up to
" them.  The 'directory' option for swap files has supported it at least as
" far back as v5.8.0 (2001), and 'undodir' appears to have supported it since
" its creation in v7.2.438.  Even though ‘:help 'backupdir'’ didn’t say so,
" people assumed it would work the same way, when in fact Vim simply ignored
" it until v8.1.0251.
"
" I don’t want to add the slashes to the option value in older versions of Vim
" where they don’t do anything, so we’ll check the version ourselves to see if
" there’s any point in including them.
"
" <https://github.com/vim/vim/releases/tag/v8.1.0251>
"
" It’s all so awkward.  Surely separate options named something like
" 'backupfullname', 'swapfilefullname' would have been clearer.
"
set backup
if xdg#['cache']['home'] !=# ''
  let s:backupdir = xdg#['cache']['home'].'/backup'

          \))
  endif
  unlet s:backupdir
endif

" Files in certain directories on Unix-compatible filesystems should not be
" backed up, for security reasons.  This is particularly important if editing
" temporary files created by sudoedit(8).  On Unix-like systems, we here add
" a few paths to the default value of 'backupskip' in order to prevent the
" creation of such undesired backup files.
"
" * /dev/shm: RAM disk, default path for password-store’s temporary files
" * /usr/tmp: Hard-coded path for sudoedit(8) [1/2]
" * /var/tmp: Hard-coded path for sudoedit(8) [2/2]
"
" Prior to v8.1.1519, Vim didn’t check patterns added to 'backupskip' for
" uniqueness, so adding the same path repeatedly resulted in duplicate strings
" in the value.  This was due to the absence of the P_NODUP flag for the
" option’s definition in src/option.c in the Vim source code.  If we’re using
" a version older than v8.1.1519, we’ll need to explicitly reset 'backupskip'
" to its default value before adding patterns to it, so that reloading this
" file doesn’t stack up multiple copies of any added paths.

" Keep swap files for file buffers in a dedicated directory, rather than the
" default of writing them to the same directory as the buffer file.  Add two
" trailing slashes to the path to prompt Vim to use the full escaped path in

" option has supported that hint for much longer than 'backupdir' has.  We

" dedicated to the undo files cache.  Note also the trailing double-slash as
" a signal to Vim to use the full path of the original file in its undo file
" cache’s name.
"
" Support for these persistent undo file caches was not released until v7.3.0,

" There are a couple of contexts in which it's useful to reload filetypes for

" a script-local function backing it.
"

" We'll also define a :ReloadVimrc command.  This may seem like overkill, at
" first.  Surely just `:source $MYVIMRC` would be good enough?
"
" The problem is there are potential side effects to the current buffer when
" the vimrc is reloaded.  The global :set commands for some options may
" trample over different buffer-local settings that were specified by filetype
" and indent plugins.  To ensure these local values are reinstated, we'll
" define the new command wrapper around an autoloaded function that itself
" issues a :ReloadFileType command after the vimrc file is sourced.
"
" We can't put the actual :source command into the script-local function we
" define here, because Vim would get upset that we're trying to redefine
" a function as it executes!
"
command! -bar ReloadVimrc

" matters related to reloading the vimrc itself, or maintaining and managing
" options set within it.
"

" Reload the stub vimrc, and thereby this main one, each time either of them

"
autocmd vimrc BufWritePost $MYVIMRC,$MYVIM/vimrc

" If Vim is new enough (v7.0.187) to support the ##SourceCmd event for

" of a sentence.  The default is pretty good, but with two-spacing with
" 'cpoptions' including ‘J’ and 'formatoptions' including ‘p’ as set later in
" this file, we can be less ambiguous in this pattern.  We require two
" consecutive spaces, a newline, a carriage return, or a tab to mark the end
" of a sentence.  This means that we could make abbreviations like “i.e.
" something” without flagging “something” as a spelling error.
"

" For word completion in insert mode with CTRL-X CTRL-K, or if 'complete'
" includes the ‘k’ flag, the 'dictionary' option specifies the path to the
" system word list.  This makes the dictionary completion work consistently,
" even if 'spell' isn’t set at the time to coax it into using 'spellfile'.
"
" It’s not an error if the system directory file added first doesn’t exist;
" it’s just a common location that often yields a workable word list, and does
" so on all of my main machines.
"
" At some point, I may end up having to set this option along with 'spellfile'
" a bit more intelligently to ensure that spell checking and dictionary
" function consistently, and with reference to the same resources.  For the
" moment, I’ve just added another entry referring to a directory in the user
" runtime directory, but I don’t have anything distinct to put there yet.
"
" In much the same way, we add an expected path to a thesaurus, for completion
" with CTRL-X CTRL-T in insert mode, or with ‘t’ added to 'completeopt'.  The
" thesaurus data isn’t installed as part of the default ‘install-vim’ target
" in tejr’s dotfiles, but it can be retrieved from
" <https://sanctum.geek.nz/ref/thesaurus.txt>.
"
" I got the thesaurus itself from the link in the :help for 'thesaurus' in
" v8.1.  It’s from WordNet and MyThes-1.  I maintain a mirror on my own
" website that the Makefile recipe attempts to retrieve.  I had to remove the
" first two metadata lines from thesaurus.txt, as Vim appeared to interpret
" them as part of the body data.
"
" Extra checks for appending the 'dictionary' and 'thesaurus' paths need to be
" made, because the P_NDNAME property is assigned to them, which enforces
" a character blacklist in the option value.  We check for the expected Vim
" error code here, and if the path offends, we just skip the setting entirely,
" rather than throwing cryptic errors at the user.  None of the blacklisted
" characters are particularly wise characters to have in paths, anyway, legal
" though they may be on Unix filesystems.  We can’t work around this one with
" 'isfname'; the blacklist is hard-coded.

" Next, we’ll modernize a little in adjusting some options with old
" language-specific defaults.
"
" Traditional vi was often used for development in the C programming language.
" The default values for a lot of Vim’s options still reflect this common use
" pattern.  In this case, the 'comments' and 'commentstring' options reflect
" the C syntax for comments:
"
"     /*
"      * This is an ANSI C comment.
"      */
"
" Similarly, the 'define' and 'include' options default to C preprocessor
" directives:
"
"     #define FOO "bar"
"
"     #include "baz.h"
"
" Times change, however, and I don’t get to work with C nearly as much as I’d
" like.  The defaults for these options no longer make sense, and so we blank
" them, compelling filetype plugins to set them as they need instead.
"
" The default value for the 'path' option is similar, in that it has an aged
" default; this option specifies directories in which project files and
" includes can be unearthed by navigation commands like 'gf'.  Specifically,
" its default value comprises /usr/include, which is another C default.  Let’s
" get rid of that, too.
"

set path-=/usr/include

" Relax traditional vi’s harsh standards over what regions of the buffer can

" habits to continue, since insert mode by definition is not really intended
" for deleting text, I feel the convenience outweighs that in this case.

"
" Consequently, we specify that sentence objects for the purposes of the ‘s’
" text object, the ‘(’ and ‘)’ sentence motions, and formatting with the 'gq'
" command must be separated by *two* spaces.  One space does not suffice.
"
" My defection to the two-spacers is also the reason I now leave 'joinspaces'

" Separating sentences with two spaces has an advantage in making a clear
" distinction between two different types of periods: periods that abbreviate
" longer words, as in “Mr. Moolenaar”, and periods that terminate sentences,

"
" If we’re using two-period spacing for sentences, Vim can interpret the
" different spacing to distinguish between the two types, and can thereby
" avoid breaking a line just after an abbreviating period.  For example, the
" two words in “Mr. Moolenaar” should never be split apart, lest the

"   defined as local to a buffer, which for me are almost always based on

" * If a normal mode map would make sense in visual mode, take the time to
"   configure that too.  Use :xmap and its analogues rather than :vmap to
"   avoid defining unusable select-mode mappings, even though I never actually
"   use selection mode directly.
"
" * Avoid mapping in insert mode; let characters be literal to the greatest
"   extent possible, and avoid “doing more” in insert mode besides merely
"   inserting text as it’s typed.
"
" * Avoid key chords with CTRL in favor of leader keys.
"
" * Never use Alt/Meta key chords; the terminal support for them is just too
"   confusing and flaky.
"
" * Don’t suppress display of mapped commands for no reason; it’s OK to show
"   the user the command that’s being run under the hood.  Do avoid HIT-ENTER
"   prompts, though.
"
" * Avoid shadowing any of Vim’s existing functionality.  If possible, extend
"   or supplement what Vim does, rather than replacing it.
"
" We’ll start with the non-leader mappings.  Ideally, there shouldn’t be too
" many of these.
