To be used when Vim is used to execute Ex commands from a file
instead of a terminal. Switches off most prompts and
informative messages. Also warnings and error messages.
- But ":print" output is displayed. And when 'verbose' is
- non-zero messages are printed (for debugging).
+ The output of these commands is displayed (to stdout):
+ :print
+ :list
+ :number
+ :set to display option values.
+ When 'verbose' is non-zero messages are printed (for
+ debugging, to stderr).
+ 'term' and $TERM are not used.
If Vim appears to be stuck try typing "qa!<Enter>". You don't
get a prompt thus you can't see Vim is waiting for you to type
something.
