insert in visual mode about evil HOT 15 CLOSED

Original comment by legrostdg (Bitbucket: legrostdg, GitHub: legrostdg):

The bug occurs with undo-tree, but I used an old version of auto-complete (0.2). I've installed the git version and it seems to work! Sorry for the inconvenience :(

I still can't reproduce the bug. Which version of auto-complete do you use? Does the bug occur without undo-tree (should be loaded by evil anyway).

OK, here is a very minimal init.el with the bug. It seems to be a problem with auto-complete-mode...

Here is my init.el... Hope that can help...

Then it seems to be a problem with other packages or you configuration. I'm sorry but I can't help you in this case. But of course, we would be very glad if you manage to track down where the problem comes from (by, e.g., manually evaluating your .emacs line by line). ;)

I have this problem with graphic and terminal emacs, but not with emacs started with "make emacs" nor "make terminal"... :-(

Original comment by Frank Fischer (Bitbucket: lyro, GitHub: lyro):

I'm sorry, but this time I can't reproduce that, neither in graphic mode (make emacs) nor in terminal mode (make terminal). Can you provide a minimal example starting from a fresh emacs?

Hum, there seems to be a new issue :-). The insertion is not always inserted at the beginning of the text...

Please test f58117c, which contains a fix.

Yes, I'm using Emacs (23.3+1-1) in a terminal window (emacsclient). And, yes it works with "make emacs" (but it starts a graphical emacs)

Original comment by Frank Fischer (Bitbucket: lyro, GitHub: lyro):

Are you running Emacs in a terminal window? I just tested this case and get the same result you described!

from evil.

Original comment by Frank Fischer (Bitbucket: lyro, GitHub: lyro):

Interesting, I can't reproduce that. Does the same happen if you start emacs with Evil only (run 'make emacs' in the source directory)?. What version of Emacs do you use?

Original comment by legrostdg (Bitbucket: legrostdg, GitHub: legrostdg):

Sorry, I meant "visual block mode" in vim. I confirm that, with Evil, "C-v" "I" "sometext" does not insert "sometext" at the beginning of each line.
When I first emacs, it first gives me:

f
o
o
(hitting "C-v")

#f
o
o
(after selecting the 3 lines, hitting "I", and then "#")


#f
#################################o
o
(hitting <ESC>)

with this message in the minibuffer: "After 0 kbd macro iterations: Variable binding depth exceeds max-specpdl-size"

And after that, if I try to do it again, produces nothing...

Original comment by Frank Fischer (Bitbucket: lyro, GitHub: lyro):

At least in my vim 7.2 this does not happen, either. But in Evil the behavior you desire does happen, but only in linewise visual-mode and block-visual-mode. I'm not sure what the expected behavior in character-wise visual-mode should be ...
