I finally took the time to write up a new release. Again, there are a lot of updates and improvements. Most of the changes are minor improvements, adjustments and polishing, and I don't really want to highlight anything in particular.

My thanks to the community for your continued interest and activity, both on opening issues and contributing with fixes and improvements! 🙏🏻

VimTeX 2.16

I'm glad to announce another release of VimTeX. There's a lot of minor improvements. The main highlights, in my opinion, are:

  • 🚀 Faster core performance of the syntax rules!
  • ↔️ The new tse general environment toggle seems useful; see :help g:vimtex_env_toggle_map for more info on how it can be customized. The old tse for toggling starred environments is changed to tss.
  • 🌔 I've begun to learn more Lua and I think, with time, I will start to implement more of the core functionality in Lua.

After this release I'll bump the version requirements for Vim to v9.1 and neovim to v0.10.

Features

  • Syntax
    • Improve syntax core performance (#3006)
      • There's a few tricks used here that are now documented in the code. Credits go to @ces42; thanks!
    • Core syntax rules
      • Highlight basic syntax errors (#2960)
      • Use more strict concealed delimiter matching rules (#3002)
      • Add proper \lVert and \rVert highlighting (#3006)
      • Add support for accented character conceals in mathmode (#2356)
    • Support \mathbfit and improve other \math… commands (#3004)
    • Package support
      • Add support for robust-externalize (#2977)
      • Add support for apacite (#2981)
      • Add support semiverbatim (#3000)
      • Add support for unicode-math (#3004)
      • Add support for luacas (#3050)
      • Improve support for fontawesome5 (#2951)
    • Conceals
      • [breaking] Don't conceal whitespace before/after delimiters (#3013)
        • This is annotated as breaking, because it may yield a surprising behaviour to people used to the old behaviour where the whitespace was concealed. Please read the issue thread if you find the new conceal behaviour for delimiters surprising.
      • Use ∖ (U+2216) to conceal \setminus (#2947)
      • Add conceal for \[ul][lr]corner (#2952)
  • Commands and mappings
    • [breaking] Add general environment toggler <plug>(vimtex-env-toggle) (#3072, #3075)
      • This is breaking, because the new map adopts the default map tse. This conflicts with the existing default map for <plug>(vimtex-env-toggle-star) which has been moved to tss. It seems like a much better choice.
    • Add <plug>(vimtex-cmd-toggle-break) with default map tsb (#2948)
    • Context action: Support bibdesk and Zotero (#2908)
  • Quickfix
    • Sort error messages to the top of quickfix list (#3053)
    • Handle more errors and warnings from latexlog and bibtex (#2950, #2924, #2943, #2953, #2994)
    • Improve bibtex path handling (#2953)
  • Viewers
    • Add support for passing column number to :VimtexInverseSearch (#3005)
    • Zathura
      • Allow to disable synctex integration with g:vimtex_view_zathura_use_synctex (#3067)
      • Pass column number to inverse search (#3005)
  • Other
    • Completion: Support angled brackets in \cite<...>{ (#2981)
    • Folding: The markers fold type now supports markers with numbers (#3052)
    • Compiler: Support @tex parameter for generic compiler (#2280)
    • Core APIs
      • Add vimtex#cite#get_key() (#2908)
      • Add vimtex#cite#get_entry() (#2946)
    • Neovim Lua (extras)
      • Implemented a parser combinator in Lua
      • Implemented a bibtex parser based on the parser combinator
      • Added initial utils for timing things in Lua

Documentation

  • Improved the installation instructions (#2934)
  • Improved the configuration guides (#2961)
  • Improved docs of g:vimtex_syntax_custom_cmds (#1972)

VimTeX 2.15

It's way overdue to make another release. There are plenty of bug fixes and a lot of feature improvements. And I'm very glad to see that there are a lot of PR contributions from the community - thanks!

I think the main highlights of this release are:

  • The new bib parser in Lua for neovim users. It makes bibtex completion faster - noticably so for those who have large bib files.
  • :VimtexCompile now respects options (see #2836 and #2866).
  • There are a few improvements to the core syntax that should improve performance.

Important: After this release I will bump the version requirements for both Vim and Neovim! That is, starting now, VimTeX will require Vim version 9.1.0 8.2.3995 (see #2934) or Neovim version 0.9.5. This means that anyone who can not or will not update must stay on this version (the v2.15 tag).

Features

  • Compile
    • Allow options for :VimtexCompile (#2836)
    • Respect -jobname option for outfiles in compilers (#2866)
    • Pass file_info argument to out_dir function (#2888)
      • This is a breaking change for anyone who uses a vimscript function for the out_dir key of g:vimtex_compiler_latexmk (or similar), because the function is now passed a single argument.
  • Syntax
    • Add option g:vimtex_syntax_match_unicode (#2732)
      • This allows to disable the feature, as it can be slow on large documents.
    • Match <, >, |, / as operators and don't match . (#2776)
    • Add keywords "ISSUE" and "NOTE" to texCommentTodo (#2839)
    • Simplify and improve some regexes to improve performance (#2877)
    • Add conceal support for more superscripts (#2886)
    • Add match for \item labels (#2885)
    • Add vimtex#syntax#add_to_mathzone_ignore (#2929)
    • Improve tcolorbox support (#2789)
    • Add support for quantikz package (#2843, #2842)
    • Initial support for biblatex-chicago package (#2875)
    • Improve sagetex package support (#2926, #2929)
  • Viewers
    • viewer.xdo_focus_vim will move mouse pointer to activated window (#2759)
    • Add option g:vimtex_view_skim_no_select to prevent Skim from selecting the text (#2766)
    • Use timer_start instead of :sleep before search for xwin_id (#2802, #2805)
    • Improve g:vimtex_view_use_temp_files (#2819)
      • The old implementation was not working properly and the docs were inconsistent with the implementation. The docs should now be properly consistent and the implementation should be better and more robust.
  • UI, commands and mappings
    • Add g:vimtex_ui_method for choosing ui backends
    • Add imap `vp for \varpi (#2797)
  • Other
    • Added new (much faster) bib parser in lua (#2786, #2816)
      • Also improved the vimscript implementation of the bib parser
    • Add warning if latexmain specifier is ignored (#2831)
    • Support subsubsubsubsection in toc (#2850)
    • Better fail method for cache encoding errors (#2849)
    • Completion support for volcites with volume (#2878)
    • Fold and toc support for comment package (#2882)

Bug Fixes

  • Compile
    • Stop compilers when reloading vimtex (#2760)
    • latexmk: Don't do timeout in pvc mode after inactivity (#2804)
      • By default the -pvc mode will stop working after 30 mins of inactivity. To prevent this, we disable inactivity timeout in the pvc mode with -pvctimeout-. This requires latexmk v4.55 (Jan 2018) or higher.
    • Fix issue when VimtexEventCompile* changes the buffer (#2844)
    • Call quickfix function before issuing autocmd (#2847)
    • Fix regression error in arara compiler (#2862, #2861)
    • Don't create the compiler state if it is disabled (#2905)
  • Syntax
    • Minor regression where C was highlighted wrongly (#2761)
    • biblatex package:
      • Add missing \Cite command (#2875)
      • Minor error with concealed volcite (#2875)
    • Minor regression bug in asymptote package (#724)
  • Folding
    • Properly handle \items in unexpected item environments (#2771)
  • Table of contents (toc)
    • Fix regression bug with preamble toc matcher (#2792, #2787)
    • Minor error in width calculation for label entries in toc
    • Return to original window when we close the toc (#2817)
    • Fix problem where format variable was not defined in labels.vim (#2883)
  • Other
    • Ensure globpath_upwards only returns files (#2763)
    • Add health check for zathura_simple viewer (#2796)
    • Fix treesitter detection (#2798)
    • Fix problem when g:vimtex_indent_lists was empty (#2846)
    • Fix lacking symlinked path resolve (#2865)
    • vimtex#bib#files: Ensure data exists before using it
    • Fix problem with how windows directories are handled in vimtex#paths#relative

Documentation

  • Several minor improvements
  • Add docs for cmp-vimtex extension to nvim-cmp (#2818)
  • Improve Zathura docs for MacOS users (#2824, #2889)
  • Add more references to localrc plugins (#2832)
  • Clarify some option values that are taken as regular expressions (#2846)
  • Add some more info on qpdfview (#2870)
  • Add lazy.nvim installer example
  • Improve documentation of user events (#2902)
  • Document API: vimtex#syntax#in (#2929)

VimTeX 2.13

This is a relatively large release that brings several features/improvements and bug fixes, as well as some performance improvements and improved documentation.

There are a few breaking changes. The most important one is likely the change from build_dir to out_dir. Users who specify this option should update their configuration. For example:

" This is now wrong!
let g:vimtex_compiler_latexmk = {
      \ 'build_dir': ...
      \}

" Instead, do this:
let g:vimtex_compiler_latexmk = {

VimTeX 2.8

It is again time for a new release. Since v2.7, there's been the normal amount of minor improvements and some refactoring. The main updates I would like to highlight are:

  • VimTeX now works even better with inverse search from viewers:
    • I've added :VimtexInverseSearch that can be used by the viewer specific configuration to communicate with VimTeX in a "server agnostic" manner. See :help vimtex-synctex-inverse-search for more info.
    • The documentation on configuration of inverse search with viewers has been rewritten.
  • The backend for running external processes and jobs has been rewritten. This is probably not so noticable by users, but it makes it easier to work with for me!

Features

  • Viewers
    • Add :VimtexInverseSearch to simplify inverse search configuration in viewers (#2219)
    • Simplify Zathura libsynctex check
  • Indentation
    • Only autoindent with 'indentkeys' at start of line (#2227)
    • Allow content before first \item (#2020)
  • Performance
    • Reduce wait time for vim.job_stop (#2222)
    • Add cached system call to process handler
    • Avoid a glob() call if possible (#2198)
    • Delay Skim availability check (#2185)
  • Syntax
    • Support \nameref (#2208)
    • Allow more styling to g:vimtex_syntax_custom_cmds (#2033, #2224)
    • Conceal support for \(sub)*section (#2022)
    • Add conceal for \[lr][vV]ert (#2186)
    • Minor update to math symbol conceals (#2178)
    • Support for Overleaf's begin|end novalidate (#2171)
    • Improve support for siunitx package (#2167)
  • Backend and initialization
    • Ignore 'shell' option for jobstart with neovim (#2220)
    • Improved latexlog quickfix error parsing (#2214)
    • Remove unnecessary option g:vimtex_compiler_progname
    • Add vimtex#env#get_* api functions (#2212)
    • Rewrite process handler (#2195)
      • Simplify and improve structure of job calls
    • Add proper cache validation to all caches (#2206)
    • Parse TeX program directive on request, not only on init (#2168)
    • Improve 'define' option (#2164)

Fixes

  • Fixed a (probably rare) problem with E565 from callback (#2225)
  • Fixed missing highlight of subsec in ToC (#2221)
  • Fixed a race condition for compiler and check_running timer (#2222)
  • Fixed issue with chktex linter (#2209)
  • Fixed an issue where \input lines were not properly parsed (#2204)
  • Fixed mapping: tse shouldn't toggle \begin{document} (#2210)
  • Fixed a couple of bugs with indentation (#2031, #2229)
  • Fixed some minor issues with the vlty grammer checker (#2190, #2191)
  • Fixed a bug with the textidote grammer checker (#2190)
  • Fixed a conflict between autoindent and completion (xxx)
  • Fixed some cache issues (#2184, #2188, #2189)
  • Fixed an error with :VimtexInfo on Windows (#2134, #2220)
  • Some minor regression and bugs (#2170, #2175, #2202)

Documentation

  • Rewrote the documentation on inverse search (#2157, #2219)
    • This was a large change that also improves the documentation for the various viewers and their configuration.
  • Use more positive wording for section on integration with other plugins (#1371)
  • Some general improvements

Other

  • More maintenance work such as a refactoring of the compiler backend.
