An example in my vi book presents different ways to fix the spelling
of the last word in a line:
... anyweigh.
With the cursor on the 'e' the command 'cway' should do the job.
Since commit 776b56d77, though, 'cw' incorrectly includes the full
stop in the range if we're on the last line of the file.
(Prior to commit 776b56d77 BusyBox vi got 'cw' right in this case but
'cW' wrong: it *didn't* delete the full stop.)
Reinstate some of the bloat removed by the earlier commit to fix this.
Also, commit 7b4c2276a (vi: fix word operations across line boundaries)
incorrectly ignores whitespace after a single character word. Adjust
the condition to avoid this.

down into it.

second character from that group, e.g. 'dc' or '<y', with the

two characters to match.
- '<' and '>' commands followed by ESC incorrectly issued an alert.

The motion that determines the range of a change, delete, yank
or shift operation can have its own count. Thus the commands
'5dd' and 'd5d' are equivalent: both delete 5 lines.
When the command itself also has a count the two values are
multiplied. Thus the command '2d3w' deletes 6 words and '2D3G'
deletes from the current line to line 6.
(When dealing with structured data it might make sense to think in
units of 3 words so '2d3w' is deleting 2 such units. It doesn't
seem quite as sensible to express 'delete from current line to line 6'
as '2D3G' but vi permits it.)

Vi places text affected by change/delete/yank operations into a
buffer. The contents of such buffers can be restored with the put
commands, 'p' or 'P'. These behave differently depending on whether
the buffer contains whole lines or partial lines. For whole lines
the text is copied into the file on the line before (P) or after
(p) the current line. For partial lines the text is copied before
or after the current cursor position.
Whether an operation results in whole or partial lines depends on
the command used.
BusyBox vi treats any buffer with a newline as though it contained
whole lines. This is incorrect. Deleting multiple words across
a line boundary results in a buffer with a newline but not having
whole lines.
Rework how buffers are handled to behave more like vi.

I was puzzled by code in find_range() which handles forward word
movement. It included a test to see if we're at the start of a
word. Since these are forward word movements surely we'd expect to
be at the start of a word? In fact, the test was intended to fix a
problem with changes to the last word in a file, as discussed in the
thread starting here:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/busybox/2004-January/044552.html
The code can be simplified by testing directly for end of file instead
of indirectly for not being at the start of a word. Since trailing
whitespace is now handled in do_cmd() the code to back up off a newline
is no longer required.

Selection of ranges for change/delete/yank by forward character
motion commands (SPACE or 'l') was incorrect. The range was
always one character whereas vi allows the size of the range to
be specified.
Fix this by executing the motion command the required number of times.
There is a complication when the range is at the end of a line. We need
to distinguish between a range which excludes the last character and
one which includes it. This requires comparing the actual range with
that expected from the command count. (With the additional quirk that
a command count of zero is equivalent to a command count of one.)

Handling of string searches in colon commands (e.g ':/pat1/,/pat2/cmd')
differ from standard vi:
- As reported in bug 10321 such searches can't be repeated using the
'n' command. This is because the last search pattern isn't updated.
- The search also can't be repeated using the command '://' because
an empty search pattern doesn't imply the use of the last search
pattern.
- Such searches should start on the line after the current line,
otherwise '://' never moves to the next occurrence of the pattern.
This can also affect other cases where line ranges are specified
using search patterns.

Back in 2007, commit 0c97c9d437 ("'simple' error message functions by
Loic Grenie") introduced bb_simple_perror_msg() to allow for a lower
overhead call to bb_perror_msg() when only a string was being printed
with no parameters. This saves space for some CPU architectures because
it avoids the overhead of a call to a variadic function. However there
has never been a simple version of bb_error_msg(), and since 2007 many
new calls to bb_perror_msg() have been added that only take a single
parameter and so could have been using bb_simple_perror_message().
This changeset introduces 'simple' versions of bb_info_msg(),
bb_error_msg(), bb_error_msg_and_die(), bb_herror_msg() and
bb_herror_msg_and_die(), and replaces all calls that only take a
single parameter, or use something like ("%s", arg), with calls to the
corresponding 'simple' version.
Since it is likely that single parameter calls to the variadic functions
may be accidentally reintroduced in the future a new debugging config
option WARN_SIMPLE_MSG has been introduced. This uses some macro magic
which will cause any such calls to generate a warning, but this is
turned off by default to avoid use of the unpleasant macros in normal
circumstances.
This is a large changeset due to the number of calls that have been
replaced. The only files that contain changes other than simple
substitution of function calls are libbb.h, libbb/herror_msg.c,
libbb/verror_msg.c and libbb/xfuncs_printf.c. In miscutils/devfsd.c,
networking/udhcp/common.h and util-linux/mdev.c additonal macros have
been added for logging so that single parameter and multiple parameter
logging variants exist.
The amount of space saved varies considerably by architecture, and was
found to be as follows (for 'defconfig' using GCC 7.4):
Arm: -92 bytes
MIPS: -52 bytes
PPC: -1836 bytes
x86_64: -938 bytes
Note that for the MIPS architecture only an exception had to be made
disabling the 'simple' calls for 'udhcp' (in networking/udhcp/common.h)
because it made these files larger on MIPS.

As reported in bug 11796 BusyBox vi incorrectly handles changes
to a word at the end of a line. If the following line starts
with whitespace changing or deleting the last word of a line
with the 'cw' or 'dw' commands causes the lines to be joined.
This happens because the range for the change returned by
find_range() covers all whitespace after the word, including
newlines. The problem can be fixed by setting 'ml' to zero
to indicate to yank_delete() that processing should stop at
the end of the current line.
However, this results in a new problem. 'dw' correctly deletes
all whitespace following the word but so does 'cw', which should
preserve the trailing whitespace. To fix this the code to omit
whitespace from the change is modified to include all whitespace
not just blanks.

- The indentation of undo_push_insert() was incorrect.
- Most seriously the commit only fixed the problem for cases where

FEATURE_GETOPT_LONG made dependent on LONG_OPTS.
The folloving options are removed, now LONG_OPTS enables long options
for affected applets:
FEATURE_ENV_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_EXPAND_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_UNEXPAND_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_MKDIR_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_MV_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_RMDIR_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_ADDGROUP_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_ADDUSER_LONG_OPTIONS
FEATURE_HWCLOCK_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_NSENTER_LONG_OPTS
FEATURE_CHCON_LONG_OPTIONS FEATURE_RUNCON_LONG_OPTIONS
They either had a small number of long options, or their long options are
essential.
Example: upstream addgroup and adduser have ONLY longopts,
we should probably go further and get rid
of non-standard short options.
To this end, make addgroup and adduser "select LONG_OPTS".
We had this breakage caused by us even in our own package!
#if ENABLE_LONG_OPTS || !ENABLE_ADDGROUP
/* We try to use --gid, not -g, because "standard" addgroup
* has no short option -g, it has only long --gid.
*/
argv[1] = (char*)"--gid";
#else
/* Breaks if system in fact does NOT use busybox addgroup */
argv[1] = (char*)"-g";
#endif
xargs: its lone longopt no longer depends on DESKTOP, only on LONG_OPTS.
hwclock TODO: get rid of incompatible -t, -l aliases to --systz, --localtime
Shorten help texts by omitting long option when short opt alternative exists.
Reduction of size comes from the fact that store of an immediate
(an address of longopts) to a fixed address (global variable)
is a longer insn than pushing that immediate or passing it in a register.
This effect is CPU-agnostic.
