-
-
-abs({expr})							*abs()*
-		Return the absolute value of {expr}.  When {expr} evaluates to
-		a |Float| abs() returns a |Float|.  When {expr} can be
-		converted to a |Number| abs() returns a |Number|.  Otherwise
-		abs() gives an error message and returns -1.
-		Examples: >
-			echo abs(1.456)
-<			1.456  >
-			echo abs(-5.456)
-<			5.456  >
-			echo abs(-4)
-<			4
-
-		Can also be used as a |method|: >
-			Compute()->abs()
-
-<		{only available when compiled with the |+float| feature}
-
-
-acos({expr})							*acos()*
-		Return the arc cosine of {expr} measured in radians, as a
-		|Float| in the range of [0, pi].
-		{expr} must evaluate to a |Float| or a |Number| in the range
-		[-1, 1].
-		Examples: >
-			:echo acos(0)
-<			1.570796 >
-			:echo acos(-0.5)
-<			2.094395
-
-		Can also be used as a |method|: >
-			Compute()->acos()
-
-<		{only available when compiled with the |+float| feature}
-
-
-add({object}, {expr})					*add()*
-		Append the item {expr} to |List| or |Blob| {object}.  Returns
-		the resulting |List| or |Blob|.  Examples: >
-			:let alist = add([1, 2, 3], item)
-			:call add(mylist, "woodstock")
-<		Note that when {expr} is a |List| it is appended as a single
-		item.  Use |extend()| to concatenate |Lists|.
-		When {object} is a |Blob| then  {expr} must be a number.
-		Use |insert()| to add an item at another position.
-
-		Can also be used as a |method|: >
-			mylist->add(val1)->add(val2)
-
-
-and({expr}, {expr})					*and()*
-		Bitwise AND on the two arguments.  The arguments are converted
-		to a number.  A List, Dict or Float argument causes an error.
-		Example: >
-			:let flag = and(bits, 0x80)
-<		Can also be used as a |method|: >
-			:let flag = bits->and(0x80)
-
-
-append({lnum}, {text})					*append()*
-		When {text} is a |List|: Append each item of the |List| as a
-		text line below line {lnum} in the current buffer.
-		Otherwise append {text} as one text line below line {lnum} in
-		the current buffer.
-		Any type of item is accepted and converted to a String.
-		{lnum} can be zero to insert a line before the first one.
-		{lnum} is used like with |getline()|.
-		Returns 1 for failure ({lnum} out of range or out of memory),
-		0 for success.  Example: >
-			:let failed = append(line('$'), "# THE END")
-			:let failed = append(0, ["Chapter 1", "the beginning"])
-
-<		Can also be used as a |method| after a List, the base is
-		passed as the second argument: >
-			mylist->append(lnum)
-
-
-appendbufline({buf}, {lnum}, {text})			*appendbufline()*
-		Like |append()| but append the text in buffer {buf}.
-
-		This function works only for loaded buffers. First call
-		|bufload()| if needed.
-
-		For the use of {buf}, see |bufname()|.
-
-		{lnum} is used like with |append()|.  Note that using |line()|
-		would use the current buffer, not the one appending to.
-		Use "$" to append at the end of the buffer.
-
-		On success 0 is returned, on failure 1 is returned.
-
-		If {buf} is not a valid buffer or {lnum} is not valid, an
-		error message is given. Example: >
-			:let failed = appendbufline(13, 0, "# THE START")
-<
-		Can also be used as a |method| after a List, the base is
-		passed as the second argument: >
-			mylist->appendbufline(buf, lnum)
-
-
-argc([{winid}])					*argc()*
-		The result is the number of files in the argument list.  See
-		|arglist|.
-		If {winid} is not supplied, the argument list of the cur
