2. The vim module *lua-vim*
|
||||
|

Lua interfaces Vim through the "vim" module. The first and last line of the
|
||||
input range are stored in$vim.firstline$and$vim.lastline$respectively. The
|
||||
input range are stored in "vim.firstline" and "vim.lastline" respectively. The
|
||||
module also includes routines for buffer, window, and current line queries,
|
||||
Vim evaluation and command execution, and others.
|
||||
|
||||
$vim.isbuffer(value)$ Returns#true#if$value$is a buffer userdata and
|
||||
$false$otherwise (see |lua-buffer|).
|

vim.isbuffer(value) Returns 'true' (boolean, not string) if

"value" is a buffer userdata and 'false'

|

vim.buffer([arg]) If "arg" is a number, returns buffer with
|

number "arg" in the buffer list or, if "arg"

is a string, returns buffer whose full or short

the buffer.
